Hello guys, im new here and im trying to understand Robot Framework to switch our RPA’s tool from UiPa… to this tool.
I was reading about the RCC service to see how to stay free of costs through the RPA Framework (Robocorp) libraries with Robot Framework (OpenSource) in VS Code, but when I entered the documentation I read this emphasizing Control Room:
Are you starting to scale beyond just a few automations? Robocorp’s Control Room just might be exactly what you need! No upfront costs to deploy or schedule robots. Only pay when you run your robots. One platform for managing all your attended and unattended automations. Leverage modern software best practices with tools such as GitHub for seamless integration with the robot development process. Run automations in parallel to complete your business process more efficiently and in less time. Scale environment resources up and down based on demand without license overheads.
Does this mean that I can create my robots in VS Code on a development machine and deploy them on production machines as I would do in a CI/CD through Control Room at no cost? From what I understood, just running the bots or consuming minutes of execution would have a cost.
I have not used the tool yet so my doubt is also if using the tool and connecting the agents (bots) has a cost, using the work queues, etc., in itself, if using Control Room is free of charge as long as you do not run the bots through this tool?
Thanks in advance for support!
