Looking at re-investing here, is this undervalued compared to UiPath? PRSM is $1.25BN MK, UiPath is now $7m; " Clearly, the Robotic Process Automation market is growing at unprecedented rates, but then again, so too is UiPath. In April, we announced that we closed a $568 million Series D funding round, a milestone achievement that raised our company valuation to $7 billion and established UiPath as one of the fastest growing enterprise software companies in the world" UiPath is private, but I wonder how different the Revenue, profit and licensing future revenues are? They are burning more cash for sure. hxxps://www.uipath.com/blog/gartner-magic-quadrant-rpa-report

From the gartner report: Blue Prism Blue Prism appear in our Leaders quadrant and is based in Warrington, U.K., with slightly fewer than 500 employees at the time of this analysis, approximately half of which are focused on business development and sales. It was one of the first vendors to describe RPA as a “market” having realized the broad potential of task automation at the UI level. From the beginning, it has focused on supporting enterprisewide deployment, balancing the democratization of automation development with the governance tooling needed for long-term success. This analysis pertains to Blue Prism Version 6.4. Strengths ■ ProductOfferingStrategy:BluePrismhasfocusedonsupportingtheneedsofITin scaling RPA initiatives. This is reflected in the configuration of “objects”; to manage the interaction and the interfaces to external applications that help customers drive reuse and more easily support changes in those systems. These objects become components in individual process automations, with work items moved between shared queues. All of this is developed using Blue Prism’s graphical, Visio-based development environment, complemented by tools to better support the IT organization in managing the overall environment. ■ MarketingExecution:BluePrismhasdevelopedastrongimplementation,technology and consulting partner ecosystem. Blue Prism invites partners to create applications that extend and augment the core platform with capabilities such as decision management, advanced analytics, unstructured data support and process mining. ■ Vertical/IndustryStrategy:BluePrismhasastrongverticalizationstrategywith industry-focused experts, campaigns, website navigation and partners. This has resulted in 42 industry solutions, representing at least 10 customers in each of these industries. Cautions ■ ProductOfferingStrategy:BluePrismfocusesoncentralizedcontrolofunattended— i.e., uninterruptable — automation, rather than attended automation. To counter this issue, Blue Prism has built-in integrations with complementary BPM products from partners such as Appian, Bizagi and TrustPortal. This is a challenge for organizations that need to include human interactions in their process automation efforts, because they need to license third-party products. Blue Prism has described “human-assisted automation” features as a part of its roadmap. Blue Prism also rejects the notion of a “recorder̶1; to build automations. However, other vendors have successfully shown how screen recorders can capture initial process outlines. ■ Sales Execution: Although Blue Prism has in-house resources for business development, sales and advisory/assurance, the vendor relies heavily on partners for sales support and implementation. Reference clients and other Gartner inquiries cite concerns about the company’s responsiveness to requests for information. This suggests that Blue Prism has historically struggled with service and support processes, compared with competitors that have invested heavily in these areas. ■ CustomerExperience:SeveralclientsinourreferencesurveymentionedthatBlue Prism needs to improve aspects such as the central monitoring function (the Control Room), scheduling, reporting and operational efficiency in large-scale deployments. These areas lacked the ease of use and enterprise level functionality of other components in Blue Prism’s platform.

You guys have lost the plot. Cloud Robotics has nothing at all to do with RPA. Too funny. Also, just look at the first Gartner magic quadrant on RPA out in the past week. Not pretty.

What is Cloud Robotics? Cloud robotics relieve robots from hardware limitations while benefiting from vastly available resources and centralized high computing capability provided by the cloud platform. How robots benefit from / interact with Cloud Computing? Cloud robotics is an emerging field of robotics rooted in cloud computing, cloud storage, and other Internet technologies centered around the benefits of converged infrastructure and shared services. It allows robots to benefit from the powerful computational, storage, and communications resources of modern data centers. In addition, it removes overheads for maintenance and updates, and reduces dependence on custom middleware." "Cloud robotics is the use of remote computing resources to enable greater memory, computational power, collective learning and interconnectivity for robotics applications." "Cloud Robotics is the application of the cloud computing concept to robots. This means using the Internet to augment the robots capabilities by off-loading computation and providing services on demand." " Cloud Robotics is considered as one of the emerging research field under the mainstream research of robotics and artificial intelligence. The main focus of cloud robotics research is to explore the possibility of using existing cloud-computing infrastructure, which is based upon service oriented architecture." The cloud robotic architecture leverages the combination of an ad-hoc cloud formed by machine-to-machine (M2M) communications among participating robots, and an infrastructure cloud enabled by machine-to-cloud (M2C) communications. Cloud robotics utilizes an elastic computing model, in which resources are dynamically allocated from a shared resource pool in the ubiquitous cloud, to support task offloading and information sharing in robotic applications. In a sense , what it does is offload some of the processing to the cloud in return for rental of the cloud components. A little like voice control on your I-phone the phone detects the voice, and sends the coded voice to the cloud where it is processed and then the processed meaning is sent back to the phone to execute. Because it is sold as an app, you aren't aware that you are renting time on the cloud you are just paying for the voice control feature app. Because there are multiple robots and you can command only a few of them at a time, having a network of robots creates the impression that each robot is smarter, and having a connection to the cloud means that if the robot is not smart enough it can offload the processing to the cloud, instead of slowing its own work down to accommodate the extra load.

Price drop a bit of an over-reaction today to CTO sales :-) But low volume sales - price should recover fairly quickly.

[borg45] 03/7/2019 10:55

Well forecast take a bow

[christh] 03/7/2019 09:23

recovery back to £18 as foreseen by a poster in here christh 24 Jun '19 - 08:51 - 5586 of 5612 wow....a great buying price heading to £18-£20 in a few weeks time The new aquisition will bolster the services to clients. Cloud is the way forward for robotics The realisation that this is a great company for investment has hit home. The aquisition will re-rate PRSM maybe £22-£25

danny, What I am saying the aquisition of the new company will compliment and enhance the services that PRSM is offering. Not only that but probably offer its RPA to the new clients but also will be a one stop shop for RPA and cloud services. Perhaps the combined services that PRSM will offer will be more attractive as they will be under the same umbrela rather than MS or IBM or xxx. PRSM had a reason to invest in the Cloud so that's why they bought a already business rather than start one from scratch. What PRSM has done is an investment in itself, which will help to grow the company. Very wise move with good potential.

[fcuky] 26/6/2019 18:33

Your mum and BPs 700p fall are good omens

[dannyboylife] 26/6/2019 15:47

Christh. The customers from the aquisition are already BP customers predominantly. And what does cloud mean here for BP that they didn't already have. Please, oh great knowledgable one, explain because I know all of the many RPA vendors have cloud of some sort (bull or otherwise), so what is going to be in the cloud now for BP that will not have them buying from another RPA vendor with same features, or better?

[fuji99] 26/6/2019 11:28

I told you: The arrival of FC is a good omen.

[bulltradept] 26/6/2019 09:48

[fuji99] 26/6/2019 07:32

fc is now back from a very long holiday. We can now feel safe and things will only get better. The start of the recovery is assured at last.

[christh] 26/6/2019 07:22

Absolute rubbish The share price will recover, the company is stronger now because of the new acquisition. More services offered, more clients in their database, versatile and one stop shop for business. Do not get blinded by shorters. It is a growing company and now will get even bigger with the Cloud business under its banner. I do expect a re-rating because of the new acquisition.

[fcuky] 25/6/2019 21:59

Falling, not because they brought another company but... Analysts placing them way behind AA and UIpath. Same analysts who sa8d glory of first mover.. now a lagger by far. And to products less than 1/4 the price. ThoughtAut were a partner so not clear how negative accretive this will be. Likely worse than some have already stated. Good news it's little cash. Market saturation, falling prices and now less than 1 year contracts are the norm.. And even aquisition of this company seems unlikely given no IP behind any of it..
