Estimated man-hour when the target system is changed
Hi. Can we have an idea on how much man-hour is needed when the target system is changed?
The "system changes" that the customer is assuming are:
- Office version migration from 2010 to 2016
- Changing Windows environment into thin client environment.
- Operating system version up such as Windows 7 to 10
etc.
I assume it depends on the robot complexity. But, if we had concrete examples in the past, that would be very helpful.
Thanks,

Hello,
The best way to determine this is to apply the change to a test system first and then see how the automation responds in order to get an idea on the level of effort these changes will take. It also, as you mentioned, depends on the Robot Complexity and exactly what you are automating. Particularly if the applications you are automation also are getting updates which may change their controls and how Robotic Studio interacts with them.
