Blue Prism Cloud vs. SAP Extension Suite (discontinued)

Blue Prism Cloud is an ideal cloud automation solution for organizations with a significant number of remote workers or geographically disparate teams since its accessible from any web browser. It is also beneficial for organizations that need to quickly outsource part of their process automation without having to purchase additional software licenses and equipment.
