    It's great for repetitive or regularly scheduled activities like reports or file transfers. However, it's not so good for on-demand activities. It doesn't support task shortcuts to run specific tasks. If it did it would be perfect.

    Based on my experience Rinkt is well suited for any day to day task that requires data entry, repetitive work, it can help you with controlling tasks redirecting emails, generally in accounting from invoicing to entering receipts into accounting programs. It can help with marketing tasks. I don't see an area where Rinkt is less appropriate for day to day tasks.

    Cons
    Fortra
    • A reporting capability on tasks: enabled, disabled, by folder, by trigger, etc. Currently there is none.
    • An "OR" in their conditional statements - currently there is only "AND".
    • Some kind of temporary backup when changing a task - separate from the current back up/restore functionality (which works well).

    Usability

    It's just very easy to use, extremely versatile, and very reliable. It's hard to find use cases where it won't work.

    The robot is very easy to user and it can actually perform the day to day tasks faster and more securely, leaving the employ time to focus on tasks more important than data entry, invoicing or redirecting email as example of tasks I referred to when I said day to day tasks.

    Support is very helpful and responsive, although using the tool is very user-friendly, so I hardly use the service.

    Return on Investment
    Fortra
    • It's been a net positive as AutoMate requires less eyes on specific tasks so that people can focus attention elsewhere and do more analysis.
    • Less manual work also decreases the chances of mistakes and/or missed jobs. Since Automate can schedule everything, send email notifications, etc., there is less time wasted.
