Pros and Cons of RPA
There are countless benefits of having RPA at your company. Using robots has a very low risk.
Advantages
Cost efective
Unlike the development of the traditional IT systems such as SAP, Oracle, the introduction of RPA is quick and very cost effective. Robots can be put in full operation, depending on the difficulty of process being automated, within 2-3 months.
High Return on Investment
Due to its’ low development cost, the return on investment (ROI) on robots is significantly higher than on traditional IT systems.
RPA does not require system changes
RPA does not require either the replacement of the existing IT systems or the change of the current processes, so the automation can be put in place without much interruption of the company’s daily operation.
Flawless execution
Robots work 100% error free, always following the pre-set guidelines. Since the robots do not make mistakes, the data or information processed by them are always error free. This fact drastically improves the company’s internal and external data quality.
Robots are always ready to work.
Robots can work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on all the 365 days of the year.
Scalable performance
The automation’s performance can be flexibly scaled so robots are able to successfully handle temporarily increased seasonal work.
Disadvantages
RPA is not suitable for every task.
Employing robots are not always feasible or economical. See more details in the following section, Where RPA can be used?
Robots are sensitive to changing input data sources.
Robots consistently follow the pre-set process. Any changes to the original input source can generate error in automation. In case of any error occurring, robots notify the process owner and follow a pre-set error protocol.
