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.

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.

Mohammed Zaman

Senior Lead Developer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees

It's easy to create Python libraries and custom scripts for a particular client and general use cases

We've had conversations with the head of Robocorp over Slack about things we want to improve. We want to introduce some packages, but the authentication tokens and many other things are not there. We can do it in Python, but the custom packages are unavailable. We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities. I don't know if they have updated the UI in the latest version, but they could improve that. The UI selector isn't that great. It would be nice to take elements from the console and customize parts. Everything is based on command lines, which I do not like. A flow chart with block items would be good for optimizing code. I would also like more support tools for developers so it's easier to understand when passing code to others.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product effectively handles all the tasks we require."

"The pricing is excellent. I would give them perfect marks in that regard."

"The solution is continuously adding more integrations to help with workflows and bot and task creation."

"Fortra's Automate has effectively replaced the workload of an entire employee, saving us significant time and money."

"It's very easy to use. That's a big selling point for it. It has got a drag-and-drop interface, so you can quickly deploy bots."

"I find it very user-friendly. Our IT department and other departments can seamlessly collaborate without requiring extensive training. As a business department, we particularly value this aspect, as our team doesn't consist of many IT users. However, we couldn't solely rely on a drag-and-drop approach to implement and utilize the solution within our departments."

"The ability to connect to websites and pull data is the solution's most valuable feature."

"Web scraping is quite good since it offers a lot of possibilities."

More Automate pros

"The cost is the best thing about ElectroNeek."

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

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

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

"The product's setup is straightforward."

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

"The most valuable feature is the price."

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

More ElectroNeek pros

"I have worked with UiPath and Automation Anywhere previously. Robocorp offers an improved development style and support as well as flexibility of its tools. You can easily develop custom libraries in Robocorp."

"The product has a valuable business process automation feature."

"The ability to create separate organizations on this platform makes it easier to bill each of the clients separately."

"I like the fact that it's very fast. The processing speed is good, and that's what matters to me. I also like that we don't have to bother with the infrastructure setup. We don't have to care about the status of the data set, as I believe the local group will provide it. We don't care about the licensing model. We only have to care about how long we are using it."

"As a developer, I found it easy to integrate third-party applications with Robocorp. I have previous experience with Selenium, and I found the Robocorp framework to be accessible because it uses Python and Selenium keywords."

"It offers high scalability and enables automation in ways that haven't been possible before."

"The price is good."

"It supports Python runtime because of that, runtime also improves."

More Robocorp pros

Cons

"Sometimes when we communicate with the ERP system and there is an issue, we are not always aware of the specifics of Automate and the source of the problem."

"I believe we need to test various OCR tools that assist in evaluating, let's say, six different customer resyncs. We analyze their spending patterns and documentations, but current OCR support has limitations, requiring highly standardized documents, which isn't always the case. With a more advanced OCR system, we could improve processes related to credit risk management and legal matters. We're exploring how to integrate Fortra's Automate with our CRM platform, taking cues from instances where Salesforce seamlessly merged with Automate. However, we use a different CRM, Insight for New Enterprise, and we're seeking ways to connect the automation process within our CRM. We aim for the automation to continue smoothly, even in instances where traditional automation methods might face hurdles."

"I find that most important features are strong, however, there is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."

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

"The documentation is not that great."

"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."

"I would like the updates to be easier to deploy. Integration with Amazon S3 is somewhat lacking."

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

More Automate cons

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

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

"The pricing is an area with a shortcoming, and from an improvement perspective, it needs to be made cheaper."

"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."

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

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

"Its price could definitely be lower."

"The solution needs to improve its stability."

More ElectroNeek cons

"The standard libraries in Robocorp should be more advanced."

"We use the latest version of the process studio and it takes up a lot of CPU storage. In our case, this has been up to 14 GB of storage."

"We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities."

"Robocorp is still in development, so most of the keywords are a bit confusing. I have to alter lots of automation steps between processing and development. However, Selenium is due for an update soon, and Robcorp is addressing some of the limitations caused by the previous Selenium version."

"An additional feature I'm looking for in Robocorp is SAP automation."

"The solution could be more stable."

"I preferred the user interface in the older versions. When troubleshooting, it's sometimes hard to find details about where things went wrong. You need to search a little harder. It takes more clicks to get to where you want to go. It can be somewhat confusing. When you run a process that fails, it takes you somewhere you may not expect."

"The platform's documentation could be better."

More Robocorp cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"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."

"From a distributor's side, one of the biggest selling points is its price point. Without going into any numbers, compared to UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism, we're significantly cheaper. The main difference is that other competitors usually charge you per process. However, in Automate's case, it's priced per bot. So, a bot can run multiple processes at the same time, but you are only priced for a single bot."

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

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

"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."

"The pricing is quite reasonable. We can run the process with one bot. The limitation is at the server level because they have some resources, and sometimes that is enough. It isn't too expensive, so you can get a good return off of one, and you can also have a pack of five bots that is quite competitive."

"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."

More Automate pricing and cost advice

"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."

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

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

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

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

"The pricing is fine."

"The price is cheaper than other competitors. I would rate the cost as one out of five."

"You don't have to pay for the license. You have to pay for the time you use it."

"The solution is a very affordable price."

"Robocorp is much better in terms of pricing compared to UiPath."

"It's a cost-effective solution."

"In terms of licenses, there is a return on investment in that area."

"The product has good pricing."
