Myths of Robotic Process Automation.

Robotics Process Automation(RPA) allows organizations to automate task just like a human being was doing them across application and systems. Robotic automation interacts with the existing IT architecture with no complex system integration required.

RPA can be used to automate workflow, infrastructure, a back-office process which are labour intensive. These software bots can interact with an in-house application, website, user portal, etc. Common myths of RPA are:

Coding is required to use RPA software

That's not true. To use Robotics Process Automation tools, one needs to understand how the software works on the front-end and can how they can use for automation.

RPA software does not require human supervision

This is an illusion because humans are needed to program the RPA bot, feed them tasks for automation and manage them.

Only large big companies can afford to deploy RPA

Small to medium-sized organizations can deploy RPA to automate their business. However, initial costing will be high but can be recovered in 4-5 years.

RPA is useful only in industries that rely heavily on software

RPA can be used to generate automated bills, invoice, telephone service, etc. which are used across industries irrespective of their software exposure.

By clarifying some of the common misconceptions around RPA, we hope this helps to enhance your understanding of what RPA really is. And to empower you to deploy RPA within your own organisations to great(er) effect. Good automating.
