User Testimonials
airSlate WorkFlowAutomation Hero
Likelihood to Recommend
Well suited for forms that need to be signed by one or more people (ie multiple levels of managers). Great to keep all completed slates in one section so that you can find what was completed and where. It does get a bit tricky with routing when it's a bit of back and forth.

I recommend Automation Hero when you receive a lot of communications (email or fax) with a lot of attachments like documents or picture, for which there is a human operator that has to collect all the information from them and this information are basically always the same (same information, same fields, some pictures...). Automation Hero needs a little training to perform well, and this can be realized only if there is a large number of inputs. Instead, if your company manages few documents or only documents written by a human, I think Automation Hero isn't a good choice because the performance isn't good enough, and you have to dedicate too much time to the training (the value of Automation Hero is the possibility to arrange your activities quickly so if you need a lot of time, the solution is not so convenient). Also, in the classification field, I recommend Automation Hero if you have a lot of emails to manage and if you need the first classification of them before they are managed by humans (so, emails are always read by humans who provide answers, but the first step of the classification may be managed by the machine). In a few words, I think Automation Hero could work for large companies.

Cons
  • Field mapping to Salesforce is precise but a bit fidgety. Would be nice to be able to do it on the form builder instead of in a separate bot.
  • Fillable fields in PDFs are ugly. It would be nice if font size/spacing/alignment actually matched the document.

  • The user interface could be more detailed (Robin).
  • Also documents in txt or html format could be read.
  • The help section for clients could be integrated into the platform without switching from one to another.

I give this rating because I am hopeful the functions I would like will be added in the near future.

Usability
Starting with a template it is easy to see how parts of the workflow are connected and make changes that will customise the product for your own use case. In our situation, rather than starting from scratch, our form was working within hours of joining the trial version. Several hours of tweaks lead us to a form that is better than the tool it was replacing and we are saving real man-hours with a minimum investment of time and money. Service has been exceptional.

Support Rating
I have reached out to airSlate support a number of times during setup and after. The platform includes a built-in support chat that is very convenient and fast. I'm able to get the answers I need is less time than it takes with any other software I use. And I don't need to pick up a phone or write an email and wait for a response. They support staff is very knowledgeable and accommodating

Alternatives Considered
HelloSign is the only other products we've used but it does not have the automation we needed. We used it when we were processing fewer digital forms and most others were required by our legal department to be printed and signed.

Automation Hero has a great support service for its customers. They are available to work closely with our team, especially for the first steps/first implementations, and they give us a team who is confident with our local native language. When there is something that goes wrong, they have quick answers for us, so we don't have to wait for the problem solutions.

Return on Investment
  • Time saved from having to email or run documents to other people for sign off
  • Time saved from auto-storing documents in the correct place once we get all the bots set up
  • Confidence from a legal standpoint due to the validity of e-signatures and its tracking

  • Less IT costs because, with Hero Platforms, flows can be implemented without IT technical skills.
  • Better customer services for standard questions (speed reply).
  • Solutions are scalable so once you have created one you can reuse them in other departments (so the ROI for the implementation of Automation Hero must be considered for a lot of projects).
