RPA Tools: Choosing the Right One for Your Organization
Written by Imran Abdul Rauf
Technical Content WriterMost daily routine office tasks and processes consume unnecessarily huge amounts of time from employees they could be spending on other productive things. When done right, robotic process automation softwares, or simply RPA tools, can carry a number of mindless chores and data-based processes at the hands of smart automated algorithms for your business.
How RPA Tools Work?
Robotic process automation RPA works by extracting information out of your IT systems, either by copying how a human resource would access the system at the front-end or through an interface at the back-end. In case of legacy enterprise systems, you can’t access the system at the back-end but the other way around.
Consider front-end robotic process automation as a Next-Gen version of traditional screen scraping, and the latter ones are known to be quite vulnerable. The instance a screen anomaly appears, for example, a number large enough exceeding the field area or a display format changing due to the software update, the screen scraper will either stop working or start showing incorrect answers. Although machine learning tends to limit, but not entirely stop such kinds of blunders.
Functionality of RPA Bots
Once the RPA tool acquires the required information, it performs a predefined task like generating a report or check, sending an invoice, and applying certain business rules. Do note that the programs that run RPA softwares may either be attended or unattended. In other words, attended RPA bots run when an employee requests a particular action, while unattended RPA bots work for unassisted tasks, routine jobs like producing weekly reports.
Most RPA programs require a supervision and routine auditing to ensure their performance is seamless and without any glitches. Understandably, human intervention is required to define the workflow on an RPA program, especially for a data-driven task, before it is run. The activity is often initiated by process recording, an activity which is somewhat similar to using macros, only across different systems (the theory of macros approves using programs for writing and editing scripts as well).
How to Choose Your RPA Software?
Our RPA automation services has its hands full with integrating technologies like machine learning and artificial intelligence AI with RPA softwares and revamp and streamline enterprise IT infrastructures.
Here are the features and associated details included on what clients can expect from our RPA automation services.
Ease of Bot Setup
Our RPA bots come in a range of ways for setup for different clients. Business users will be able to select and click on applications they frequently use while a recorder notes the activity at the same time. Non-technical users or citizens use a low code system to define their own bots and rules. While professional coders are able to create their own code.
Low Code Tendencies
Normally, low code revolves around easy drag-and-drop features from a number of options for different reasons such as filling property forms, writing a situational code snippet, etc. Creating small lines of code will take little to no time as compared to employing graphical methods of defining a business rule.
Attended vs. Unattended
Some RPA bots are attended, i.e., they only wake up and perform under a specific request whenever a business user wants to perform a thoroughly defined task. For instance, converting a visual into plain text. On the other hand, unattended RPA bots once setup, operate in the background. Unattended RPA bots function repeatedly or on a mass scale, but creating them is a textbook activity. For example, manual data entry, email management, routine administrative tasks, and so on.
Machine Learning Input
The old RPA models weren’t efficient enough to acquire information from unstructured documents, and most of the company’s information is found in such correspondences and not databases. On the other hand, Royal Cyber’s RPA solution uses machine learning to parse the documents, locate the needed numbers, and return to the user.
Such exercise is often termed as hyperautomation, but the core functionality remains the same.
Integrations with Enterprise Applications
Any RPA program is of no use for your business if it is unable to dig valuable information out of your applications and system. This is where modern, smart bots use drivers, plug-ins, and credentials from all your databases, HR and accounting systems, and other various tools to self-learn and automate processes.
Administration and Orchestration
We help your bots run by providing them the relevant information needed through a secure credentials platform. Moreover, users will be authorized before the bots are created and run, and encode a direction for your unattended bots to perform a specific action in a specific event.
Cloud Bots
On their inception, cloud robots used to run only on individual desktops and company servers. But with the growth in cloud technology, enterprises have established separate cloud machines for bots. Seemingly, some RPA companies have started using cloud based bots that run on cloud apps using associated APIs over running on macOS, Windows, or Linux VMs. Even if your business is running low on investing and usage in cloud applications, it is time you acquire the cloud bot capabilities.
Task Discovery and Mining
Understanding your process and prioritizing the tasks for automations is arguably the most time consuming part in RPA automation. We help you mine the processes from system logs and develop task flows in order to make the entire process quick and easy for automation.
Scalability
As RPA implementation runs out to your company systems and starts handling multiple automations, there is a high chance of your system starting to complain about different issues. This case is particularly true for unattended bots. A cloud solution can proactively counter these scalability issues, whether VMs, native, or in containers.
