What actually does RPA express Free means?

  1. Should able to use RPA Express, workfusion studio completely free forever to design Desktop automation?
  2. For how many days do I get the license for control tower (local)? Does RPA express 2.2 give a completely free license for control tower?

Hi @skrishnan

  1. After trial period expires you can continue using RPA Express. But the number of bots will be limited to one only, and you won’t be able to connect to Control Tower from remote machines.
  2. Trial period lasts 30 days. But you can continue using local Control Tower after it expires.

You can find more information of what happens after trial expires in our Knowledge Base - https://kb.workfusion.com/display/RPAe/FAQ#expand-Whathappenswhenthetrialexpires

Thank you! I see below features on starter version

After the trial period, if users do not subscribe, they will still be able to use the RPA Express Starter version, which offers:

  • one bot on the machine where RPA Express is installed
  • ability to run consecutive business processes on a local machine
  • access to the full functionality of WorkFusion Studio, Control Tower, and other RPA Express components on a local machine.

One bot on the machine - what does that mean - i have a business process workflow which has 3 BOTs but it runs one after another. Can starter version sufficient to run this business process in local machine sequentially?

Hi again @skrishnan

One bot on the machine - that means that you will have only one bot to run your business processes on your machine.

What about your question with the sequential running of business processes. You can use Schedules in Control Tower to run a particular business process at a certain time. You can schedule a business process to run, for example, on Monday at 5 pm. Here you can find how to schedule a business process - https://kb.workfusion.com/display/WF/How+to+Schedule+a+Business+Process

Also please be informed that additional bots are available only on Server type of Windows. Here you can find requirements for multiple bots - https://kb.workfusion.com/display/RPAe/System+Requirements#SystemRequirements-RPAExpressProSystemRequirements
