We still use some other RPA alternatives for some clients, but IBM Robotic Process Automation is our superhero with extraordinary capabilities and powerful working. This RPA was chosen to be at the top of our list of RPAs for our clients and as our main RPA for our agency. It ensures that the company operates smoothly and efficiently.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We have considerably improved our processes and production thanks to this fantastic technology. Even though we have several of our own automation solutions, we think this is one of the best. It has remarkable capabilities and has accelerated our ability to make business decisions since the first day of production. For individuals who are just getting started with RPA, this offering is great.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Due to the platform's immaturity it is still new and undergoing development we experienced some issues. Along with restrictions on specific functions, its documentation lacks the appropriate usage instructions.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This IBM masterpiece is more potent than we anticipated; IBM Robotic Process Automation has assisted us in identifying and automating complicated, game-changing processes as well as automation prospects. By cutting down on manual labor and better utilizing our resources, we have also saved money. This is a fantastic tool to hasten the development of bots. It is an excellent technology.

What differentiates IBM Power Systems from other similar products?

We still utilize some other options for some customers, but IBM Robotic Process Automation is our superhero with amazing powers and tremendous abilities, which is the major reason I chose this RPA to be at the top of our selection of RPAs for our clientele and as our main RPA for our organization.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We have considerably improved our procedures and production thanks to this fantastic technology. Even though we have several of our own automation tools, we think that this is one of the best. It has remarkable abilities and has accelerated our ability to make business decisions since the first day of production.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The chat bot capabilities, in my opinion, are insufficient; they might be more effective and user-friendly. I have to take additional measures to configure each chat bot to my specifications because I use chat bots in my business all the time. Web automation has presented problems for us as well.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

We may automate our work with the help of IBM Robotic Process Automation (RPA) in a quick and effective way. The system is an improved version of standard RPA systems. For individuals who are just getting underway with RPA, this offering is great. The ability to run many bots is one of the biggest benefits.

satisfaction with IBM Power servers overall

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates IBM Power Systems from other similar products?

We switched to IBM Power Servers because it wasn't remotely functional and some features were missing, and we think it's fantastic. Dell PowerEdge R servers are noisy and warm to the touch. It was extremely difficult to get it going.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

1.The advanced micro partition feature for virtual server creation is available on IBM Power Servers. 1 Physical CPU and 05 CPU. 2.With cutting-edge VM features like COD, we can increase the IBM Power Servers' physical resource. 3.Virtual resources like network cards, HBA cards, CD-ROMs, and others can be configured. 4.Implementing and managing IBM Power Server from HMC is simple.

What do you dislike most about this product?

1.Microsoft Windows OS is incompatible with it. 2.A small client would rather use a cloud option to maintain their data and save money rather than using IBM Power Servers due to the high cost. 3.Although expensive, this server might provide small businesses with cost-effective options.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

The software is very simple to use, and the backup features are really nice. There are several backup features available. The upkeep is also excellent and greatly appreciated. We haven't yet discovered any significant flaws in it.
