Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is very stable. We don't have issues with bugs or glitches.""There are not many challenges when setting up this solution, and there is a good amount of documentation to go with it.""Productivity increased far more than thirty percent.""The most valuable features are the portals for extracting data from PDF files, appending data to SAP, automating the SAP, downloading reports, and mapping and creating the reports accordingly to your requirements.""What I like most about BotFarm is that it's one of the leading RPA products in the market. Very few products focus on robotics today, so I like that BotFarm offers a lot in terms of what general customers expect it to do.""The best aspect is the UI, as it is very user-friendly.""The solution has been very user-friendly.""The main features of the solution are the IQ Bot and web-based automation."

More BotFarm Pros →

"To build automation using UiPath is fairly simple. The studio is quite easy to use. Even now, with the community edition, it’s great.""The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is user-friendly.""The most valuable aspect is the different capabilities and features that can be applied to different processes.""The RE framework is a valuable feature because it offers the possibility of working with a large amount of data without the need to transmit all the information.""We see time savings for our users in the sense that they now can do more tasks that should have been done all along but weren't getting done. That's more where the gains have been this far.""Technical support has been good. I am happy with their response times.""The scheduler tool is valuable because I can slow or speed up run times during peak use.""Both on-prem and cloud solutions are very stable."

Cons
"The discovery suite that they just acquired could be included.""The only challenge that we have faced with BotFarm is that there is no continuous deployment. The whole world is moving to the DevOps model, but BotFarm is still not on the DevOps model. It should have integration with the DevOps model. The migration of the bots or bots pipeline is currently purely manual.""The new version is not very stable. Sometimes I can't use the recording sound.""I would definitely be wanting to see OCR features for improving the solution.""We do have some troubles with the internal software commands, but we have been troubleshooting this bug to fix it.""It would be ideal if the solution offered more language options, such as Arabic.""I have called customer service three times and the experience has not been good. They do not offer 24/7 support, which forces us to wait till the next working day to solve a problem.""We have connectivity and integration with pretty much every single tech stack across the table that we have in the world, and there are a few areas that they don't do that well yet. I'd be looking for some improvement there, in terms of their integration with certain products."

More BotFarm Cons →

"I would like to see some use cases and additional information on the process mining and the OCR features that are being released.""If UiPath could interact with more popular applications currently available, it would be highly beneficial.""The pricing is high and has room for improvement.""UiPath should integrate more machine learning and have more machine learning processes. In their development system, they have some machine learning tools, but they should increase them.""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.""The error handling is in need of improvement. We'd had a problem tracking when errors occur, and troubleshooting how things are captured in production.""The pricing in our region has the potential for improvement.""Assessing an AI center's role in orchestrating various elements of AI capabilities is quite constrained."

  • More BotFarm Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "If you want to do a demo trial, it is a 30 days free."
  • "The community edition is completely free. Then, people say, "There is nothing to lose, let me try it.""
  • "There are operational benefits in terms of time savings and user satisfaction of not having to do menial, repetitive tasks."

    Overview

    BotFarm is an enterprise-level robotic process automation (RPA) solution. What is unique about BotFarm is that users can buy RPA processes based on demand and not be confined to a license or a strict capacity structure. BotFarm, a robust product of Automation Anywhere, is the only RPA solution that allows users to buy only the products they need when they need them. BotFarm allows users to launch all the robots they need to get tasks completed sooner and more efficiently than many other products in the marketplace today. This consumption-based business model will result in significant savings and increase an organization's overall profitability.

    BotFarm Benefits

    • Integration: BotFarm integrates well with many third-party solutions.

    BotFarm Features

    • No code/low code solutions: Users can easily create and deploy bots to perform undesirable, mundane tasks, freeing IT staff to work on more productive, complicated tasks.

    • IQ Bots: Easily extrapolate data from any document, such as resumes, invoices, and legal documents, to ensure data is correctly correlated and grouped together and that overall data integrity is never compromised.

    • Fast: Deployed bots can complete tasks significantly faster than any human component, and with less error.

    • Cost-effective: Users only pay for the bots they actually need, and create as they go. This innovative process will save your organization time and money while increasing overall productivity and profitability. BotFarm has a very good ROI and is a stable, secure, and scalable solution.

    Reviews from Real Users

    Akshay P., Associate Systems Analyst at NSEiT Limited, relates, “It is very easy, simple. You're working on a notepad, and you don't need to know programming to work on this. The dashboards are quite good, especially on the latest versions.”

    A Digital Strategy Manager at an energy/utilities company shares, “The scalability is the solution's most valuable aspect. The reason Bot Farm is used is to have only one license available whenever you have a spike in the transactions. That is a core feature. That is something which we are using to the maximum. It's working well due to the fact that the solution use case is quite structured.”

    A Senior RPA Developer at a tech services company tells us, “The solution is great to automate any repetitive tasks, which you might do on a daily basis. For example, the organization may need to be generating invoices or extracting data from PDF files daily. It is very versatile in what you can automate. This has improved my organization by cutting down on repetitive tasks that now can be automated.”

    UiPath is a user-friendly automation software that streamlines business processes by automating repetitive tasks. It offers extensive automation capabilities, seamless integration with other systems, and robust security measures. 

    Users appreciate its intuitive design, ease of use, and ability to automate complex workflows. 

    Its seamless integration with various applications ensures smooth data exchange and enhances workflow management, while strong security measures protect sensitive data and maintain compliance with industry standards.
