IBM Robotic Process Automation (RPA) Reviews & Product Details

Quite easy to update the code and implement in production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is no "or" and "and" operator.

It would be nice if "logMessage" also created a local log.

Bugs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Programming with Studio is simple and easy even for those who are not familiar with programming, as the block commands prevent possible implementation errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I see that there is a lack of detail in the documentation of some commands. There are commands where the documentation has more fields than exist in the Studio, for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Time saving.

With the schedules, even if I am not present, the tasks will be completed without fail.

Create a receipt pattern, the report will always be in its proper place at that time.

Repetitive and standardized tasks cease to be a burden. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is no easy understanding of the commands we use infrequently, the database that teaches us to use such commands is confusing. Besides being just a translation into Portuguese, making it difficult to understand some words. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of programming interactions with the screen (Desktop Automation), using only Drag&Drop and reading Excel files without needing to open Excel on the screen, are points that greatly facilitate my work in automating data migration between legacy systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Database interaction commands like Bulk Insert are not fast in execution. Before executing the command, it is necessary to prepare the data in a data table to use the command. When I am working with many tables, this affects performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The possibility of automating repetitive tasks that take up a lot of the team's time, which need to be executed, but take time from an employee who could be performing more strategic activities. I also consider the issue of agility and assertiveness in the process, which greatly improves with the implementation of RPA. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't see any negative points in the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Among its various features, the most useful is the option to develop low-code, which is ideal for beginners to learn easily and quickly while it is also possible to write in script for the more experienced. This ends up being a differentiator among all the tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Few things are "slightly" useful on the platform. I would say that the biggest negative point on the platform is the fact that there are many updates and drastic version changes where the components change the way they act from one to another. Thus breaking already stable RPAs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool is highly intuitive and offers a range of benefits for companies that wish to automate their processes, repetitive and manual tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The videos and courses are in English, which makes it difficult to fully learn and quickly clarify doubts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Despite being a Big Tech, the company's customer service/support is fantastic, fast, and available 24 hours a day. In addition, the tool is comprehensive and meets practically all the automation needs we have had so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some instabilities in certain versions, which are quickly resolved by releasing a new version, but when switching versions, it is necessary to perform a series of tests on the scripts, which is a bit annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My knowledge and contact with IBM was more conceptual. It became clear the possibilities of how much we can automate activities after a feasibility analysis. As for responding about the structure, I believe the team leading this at the company, which hired the services, can answer better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't have elements for this evaluation. But I already have automated processes in my area and I can perceive the results of agility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The IBM RPA Studio is very easy to use. Visually, it has the appearance of a programming IDE, which makes it easy to follow visually, whether in designer or script mode.

The variety of commands allows you to automate many processes. Even in complicated graphical interfaces, the interface recognition via OCR adds a lot of versatility to the platform.

The automatic report generator is a very powerful feature when you need to work with specialized reports, whose data comes from different sources.

I like the functionality of deploying multiple versions of the same robot at once, which allows you to make improvements and test its operation in a test environment without needing to touch the production version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Among the disadvantages, I see that some concepts are a bit difficult to understand, such as exception handling.

Also, the way of handling some control flow commands, such as managing multiple conditions within an IF, which makes it necessary to add many more commands than needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
