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.

Oracle
Oracle Process Cloud is suited for medium-sized companies and up who want to create applications that can automate tasks without the need of recruiting more software developers. With a couple hours of training, any member of the organization's business team will be well-equipped with all of the knowledge that is needed to use Oracle Process Cloud effectively. If your IT team is large and able to take upon the task of making the given application, then something like Oracle BPM is a better solution.

Pros
Fortra
  • Very detailed task builder. Easy to read step by step a task's operation even if you don't have much programming knowledge.

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).

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

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

I haven't used any products like Oracle Process Cloud in the past, but our organization is planning to test out UIPath RPA and see how it compares with Oracle Process Cloud in the near future.

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.

  • The modern and advanced analytical abilities in Oracle Process Cloud are also a missing element that should be catered to.
  • This tool is used greatly for IT departments at a lower level with some very basic and limited access for general employees only.
  • Oracle Process Cloud has many advantages like it offers some very great and scalable solutions.
  • I find Oracle Process Cloud pretty straightforward and easy as compared to the different options available. Lastly, I think that as it is just one platform, managing the Oracle Process Cloud is pretty easy too.
