Anabel Marco

Account Director at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

Automates processes efficiently with cost-effective scaling and robust customer support

Web scraping is quite good since it offers a lot of possibilities. Another important feature for me is its compatibility with MBI, the Power that is ISEQUADO Centers. I appreciate the ability to scale and increase the number of bots or studios without additional expense. Automate's non-reliance on additional orchestrators makes it quite cost-effective.

Ishmael Munyai

Robotics Process Automation (RPA) Developer at Apollo Studios

With an easy initial setup phase in place, the tool needs to provide functionalities like web scraping to users

It is a very scalable solution. In ElectroNeek, you can build your project in modular programming or with the use of sub-programs. You can have a lot of sub-programs that make up a whole project. If you don't wanna use the drag-and-drop activities, you can use JavaScript or Python instead. So it's very useful when you are working with things such as SPS. Actually, you can write scripts to support all the product functionalities with Python and manage the product's functions. You will find a company named Apollo Studios on the website of ElectroNeek. I think they are one of the best companies in South Africa that entered into a partnership with ElectroNeek.

Amjed Al-Tayyan

Governance Director at Diyar United Company

Automation streamlines onboarding and reduces the load on customer service agents

As the head of the division, I do not use UiPath myself. However, I am the decision-maker, so I review the features. The combination of both full-attended and half-attended automation, where you can automate tasks and still interact when required, is very useful. It provides efficiency by freeing staff from unnecessary tasks, resulting in a balanced workload and more productive use of an employee's time. The tool has a noticeable ROI, and the investment is worth every penny as it reduces tedious tasks and improves scalability. It is very easy to use. During the COVID lockdown, my son who was 11 at the time attended a UiPath and Automation Anywhere training with me. He has already automated his school tasks requiring saving data and uploading some documents to the portal. If a kid can do this, it shows how easy it is.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"We have found the pricing to be very reasonable."

"The most valuable features for my client are timing and scheduling."

"I find the ease of use from a programming perspective very valuable."

"The best feature of Automate is its ease of use, which is a major selling point."

"This product is quite easy to install, learn, and use, with our new employees being able to start using it in projects for clients after only two weeks of internal training."

"I actually quite liked the no-coding functionality."

"Overall, the whole product is really nice and provides significant benefits."

"The licensing of the product is very good. You only need to license it once and then you have it forever."

More Automate pros

"The product's setup is straightforward."

"The most valuable feature is the price."

"The solution is user-friendly with a really good UI and ID."

"The drag and drop feature, which is no code, is very useful for me because I am not a technical person. It is very user-friendly."

"We find the OCR feature very valuable, due to the corrector recognition that it provides; this is very useful for document processing."

"My favorite feature is that you can have unlimited bots without having to buy more licenses. That's a powerful option for scalability."

"ElectroNeek was extremely easy to use, especially its UI was easy to navigate with limited training."

"The product's initial setup phase was easy."

More ElectroNeek pros

"UiPath Document Understanding and Task Mining are valuable features."

"UiPath's automation features are all equally valuable, but we use the unattended bots the most."

"Document Understanding and Action Center have added significant value to UiPath, especially for the IDP process."

"And the UiPath user community is the best. The people there are very friendly and helpful, and engage with each other. UiPath has done a good job building a good forum and a good blog, and making the community members interact with each other. The community is one of the reasons UiPath is my choice. It is a strong community."

"I have found Orchestrator is UiPath's most valued feature. It has the ability to automate different applications, such as, mainframe automation and Excel macros. It is so efficient. We can download up to seven days back in just one click, monitoring errors."

"I like how it integrates with the Orchestrator and everything works together. There are so many different use cases that we can easily connect through APIs, databases, and user interfaces to automate all kinds of applications."

"It is very easy to use, and you still have a lot of possibilities to modify what you are trying to do and achieve."

"It's made it easier to do development and create accurate products for the customers."

More UiPath pros

Cons

"We really need a free development environment for customers. Building and testing automation on production isn't ideal."

"There is room for improvement regarding cloud functionality; there are a few missing features, and the logging could be better, especially air logging. We can go into logging events and create our own task, but it would be nice if this were more detailed."

"It's possible that they could use a stronger community for seeking guidance and help."

"The documentation for errors needs improvement as many of the error messages we receive are very vague."

"Some companies have asked for voice integration. This is likely part of the roadmap."

"There is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."

"The interface could be more user-friendly and easier to navigate."

"It would be an improvement if Automate had better stability tools, whether by recommending a certain amount of memory because it can be a memory hog at times."

More Automate cons

"When I wanted to use web scraping for tables in web applications, I found through online forums that such functionality or activity is currently not working as it shows."

"Its price could definitely be lower."

"It's not applicable to very large enterprises and for difficult work or more complex processes."

"The integrating capability of the product needs to be improved, to ensure that it works with all systems involved in a process."

"I think that this solution could improve remote desktop interactions."

"ElectroNeek comes with three activities and we cannot add activities like we can with uiPADs."

"The solution works well with Google Chrome, but not with Microsoft Edge, which is the browser we use for automation."

"The solution needs to improve its stability."

More ElectroNeek cons

"There is potential there for some workflow capability. I know this would be going beyond RPA at that point, but having one platform that does a lot of things would be nice. Because as it stands, when you need to do a workflow or approval process, you need to send this out somewhere else. There are things the bot can do, but I can see some of that functionality already showing up though with the tasks and apps. However, I would like to see more."

"Looking to go from structured to unstructured data, then UiPath needs to be able to handle understanding natural language and scanning of documents which are not well-written or visible, in terms scanning quality. These are probably the easiest target areas to improve on first."

"UiPath fails jobs sometimes and doesn't give you direct instructions on why it failed. A little more insight into failed jobs would be beneficial. It should have more documentation and short training modules."

"The fast growth of UiPath can be difficult to keep up with, so more informative sessions or webinars showcasing potential returns on investment for specific industries would be beneficial."

"The upgrade process could be improved so that it does not require download and reinstall."

"There can be technical issues, but it's rarely about a server quitting. They are more like connectivity, platform, and software version issues, but there are no issues with UiPath performance."

"They can certainly improve their Automation Hub, which is their centralized place to gather new opportunities. The improvement could be, in part, in the capabilities. For example, it would help if there were a centralized dashboard. Maybe they could combine Insights and Automation Hub into one solution."

"For a few of the projects, we have saved money, however, on a few of these projects we've noticed less revenue. The orchestration cost is a bit higher when we are working on smaller projects."

More UiPath cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other products, the pricing model for this solution is much more convenient, flexible, and adaptable to the Portuguese reality."

"It has gone up in price. The price of Fortra's Automate has increased since we first started using it. It does a lot but also costs a lot. It was a lot more affordable before Fortra owned the software."

"I like the way this solution is priced because you can buy a license, or you can buy the software outright."

"The cost is a bit high for a small business like ours, but we manage with Fortra's Automate."

"I'm only involved in running the product and maintaining the systems, so I can't speak to the cost."

"I believe the price falls within a reasonable range, which significantly influenced our decision regarding the product. This aspect is crucial for any technological solution, especially in our country where enterprises might be hesitant to invest heavily in something untested or uncertain about its practicality and potential returns."

"While solutions like UiPath and Blue Prism cost around $11,000-$12,000 for each license, this product costs around $7,000 and you can keep it forever."

"From a distributor's perspective, one of the biggest selling points of Automate is its price point."

More Automate pricing and cost advice

"I give the price an eight out of ten."

"I believe we had a Silver Membership or something similar annually."

"My company has made a payment towards the purchase of a license from ElectorNeek."

"It's very affordable and the licensing is billed on a yearly basis."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a seven."

"Its price could definitely be lower. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost to the standard licensing fees."

"The pricing is competitive. I like the solution's pricing structure."

"I find its pricing to be okay, but it also depends on the size of the company. Small users and individual users might not be able to exhaust all the features of the platform, but SMEs and large organizations are able to use the platform in a broad manner. They are able to enjoy many more benefits. UiPath needs to come up with a pricing and licensing model that favors small users and individual users."

"It is important for whatever we implement that it's cost effective in a sense that the robots will replace some human time. If human time costs less than the robot, then that's not a good deal."

"The main thing that could be improved is the cost. I have worked with other tools and the licensing cost of UiPath is slightly higher than the others."

"The tool's pricing is fairly reasonable."

"The cost depends on how many licenses are needed and how bots are used. Right now there is no solution that is less expensive."

"UiPath's licensing costs can be high, and to maximize their value, customers need a clear plan for utilization."

"The solution's pricing is a challenge. Every time I go to renew my contract, the prices increase. It is getting expensive."
