A Blue Prism Developer Review

  • April 24, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Blue Prism is easy to study/understand and make automation with. It also has good exception handling unlike other Robotic Process Automation products.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes you have to make your own VBOs using C# or VB which I'm not used to program with. Reusing components sometimes is an issue when transferring it across different machines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly web automation, native windows application, report processing generation. It makes the automation process convenient.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try other Robotic Process Automation products first for comparison and appreciation. For starting developers, take the foundation training or watch other tutorial videos.

What do you like best about the product?
Using Blue Prism helps you automate repetetive and mundane tasks. It also reduces the percent of errors done in doing the manual task through the automation
What do you dislike about the product?
It gets time to get used to it. I think there should be more tutorials about using the code stage portion of blue prism.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my experience, manual tasks that may take up to 3-4 months can be finished within hours after 2-3 weeks of developing a the bot
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Blue Prism is a great automation tool, easy to understand, with or without programming experience.

future Automation

  • April 21, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Blue prism is very secure and the control room activity is very simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
blue prism is not open source the students need to purchase the software in order to learn this software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
its solving repeated task very effectively. need to improve blue prism to automate the medical coding process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
its good tool but need to provide some free license for students. you need to solve schedule related issues. the dead lock issues, and when we are updating blueprism its taking too much of time to update the new files. and the process and resourse visuals needs to improve. its little bit of deficulty while dragg and drop the process into resource. also when we are trying to pull old files its not able to get. BP's built-in queue is also nice as you won't have to setup a database. Blue Prism is the most driving automation device programming that gives business and Organizations the defter virtual workforce. It generally conveys wise automation stage that conveys the most astounding necessity levels for review, security and consistency with its Artificial Intelligence abilities.bp need to created new programers. when peoples getting some free trials then they will start implementing the process. It performs only pre defined set of instructions step by step quickly and accurately when compared to humans.
It won't understand natural English and perform the tasks.. meaning it doesn't have natural language processing​ capabilities,Currently it is not enabled with Cognitive intelligence,It doesn't have machine learning and self decisioning capabilities,It doesn't have artificial intelligence capabilities.

Unimpressed with 6.1 (Hit or Miss)

  • April 21, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The process discovery tool is really useful in helping to create qualified business cases for automation.
It captures the right sort of metrics, its simple and presents both tabular and visual reports which communicate salient points very clearly to both the technical team and the business.

Support team are professional and always available

Blue Prism have put together useful knowledge articles, training materials and a forum on their portal to help get you started and to support your development as a user.
What do you dislike about the product?
Eractic & Unstable Development Environment
Initially I expected the tool to be similar to other Interactive Development Environments I had used in the past. I was disappointed to find a much more unstable system in terms of internal error handling, and temperamental performance when executing the same code. I would expect basic lines of code to function more or less the same way every time, and if there is a bug or logical error at a higher level, I wouldn't expect to regression test every single line of code. I could't understand why a straight forward action of opening an excel file would behave very differently throughout the development lifecycle. The errors generated were internal errors which could not be rectified by changing the code (e.g. stack overflow errors)

Some parts of the UI
could do with a design that allows a human to create the solution a bit more efficiently. At the moment some of the development work requires the user to laboriously copy, paste and repeat tasks which isn't really taking the 'robot out of the human'

Documentation
At times I found it difficult to get information on components, how they work and the code on which they are based.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automating back office processes in a large bank has allowed some FTE to be released from manual repetitive tasks to work on other problems with more value adding tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are environments which can leverage a really good return on investment and there are other which will struggle or are wrong for this approach. Every business will have unique needs, but If you are going to try the product I would recommend involving your technical teams as much as possible when it comes deciding the operating model. The ROM or Robotic Operating Model is a huge factor in achieving successful delivery.
