Featured Reviews

Anabel Marco - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
CV
Simplifies integrations and is suitable for large companies
Sometimes, when our company develops using the latest technology, the knowledge is not yet cycled down to the tool's support team. The tool's support team is not mature enough to handle the tool. The promotion of a feature before it is mature may cause issues, and I feel that sometimes the deployment of such features is a little too early. The tool will release a feature, but it will have bugs in it. We face challenges because the tool's team doesn't have the knowledge to deal with the issues in the product's new features. When SAP develops something, if the tool's team doesn't know how to support it, it becomes a problem because now we have to access developers to get the information that is not readily available.
Robert Gonzales - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides better ecosystem control and duplication control but have duplication issue
The initial setup is complex. During deployment, we identify the assets we want to include and the site, among other details. We ensure everything is translated into a common language using a CML-type discussion, allowing consistency across all elements. We aim to standardize everything by using JSON as our common input format. We are deploying existing features, so most of the work is straightforward. We do need some developers, particularly ServiceNow developers, to be involved. However, there isn't a lot of additional work required. We need some licensing from ServiceNow to enable these feature sets, but there aren't many other requirements.
