The distinctive aspect of Fortra's Automate RPA is that it does provide a little bit more independence than some other solutions. User-friendly and simple to use, Fortra's Automate RPA is an RPA solution. I picked up using this automation tool and creating workflows quite quickly. It offers a large variety of tasks, and finding what we want to construct automation is simple.

Everything from email lists to complex technical procedures may be easily automated with the cutest automation process software on the market.

The interface is really user-friendly and entertaining. Even someone with basic product knowledge may be capable of utilizing and configuring the product to its fullest extent.

What do you dislike most about this product?

There are several flaws and pop-up boxes throughout the script, but some of them are difficult to control. If I don't respond quickly to address problems, they seriously impede the automation process, forcing us to redesign the procedure.

Fortra's Automate RPA is more than adequate to handle all automation in all business sectors; its capabilities are more than enough to make sure that you never run away from having all the sophisticated features in a single location.

What differentiates Fortra's Automate from other similar products?

With Automate, connecting securely via FTP to other systems is really simple. We have utilized passwords, SSL connections, and PGP encryption of files; everything functions as intended and is simple to set up.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It is easy to understand and utilize. I rapidly learned how to build workflows and use the automation platform. It provides a wide range of activities, and it is simple to locate what we require to construct automation. HelpSystems provides excellent support and training, and they keep adding new integrations to aid with processes and bot development.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It is still not simple; we must backup, uninstall, and reinstall, and occasionally the Agent won't connect, in which case we must reinstall the Agent module. The upgrading issue ought to be resolved. Another issue is that the forms need to be improved before they can be integrated into the user experience.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I strongly advise getting one of the training bundles from HelpSystems. You can buy a block of time designated just for private instruction with a licensed HelpSystems Automate specialist. The training time we invested in has proven to be tremendously beneficial and has enabled us to successfully roll out Automate RPA.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
