Ayush S - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides efficient process management features, but it needs more integration capabilities
We use AgilePoint for an idea submission application for our business processes. It allows managers to review and update the approved idea on the dashboard AgilePoint's most valuable feature is process management. We can integrate it with many applications including Microsoft, UiPath, and other…
Vatsal Mehta - PeerSpot reviewer
Accommodates diverse use cases and effectively meets customer requirements
AI agents need further improvements. AI agent technology in agentic process automation is still evolving. We have only scratched the surface, and there are many potential use cases yet to be explored. As technology advances, I believe it will enable us to implement more comprehensive automation solutions. Document Automation has issues related to speed. When I compare Document Automation with IQ Bot, IQ Bot is faster than Document Automation. My understanding is that they are still evolving Document Automation, and this issue of slowness will be resolved in the upcoming .35 version, so we are good with that. They are working on signature identification and validations for handwritten documents. Currently, we are able to extract data out of scanned but digital images, but there is still scope for improvement for handwritten documents.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"AgilePoint's automation is excellent in managing different user roles and handling data associated with a particular instance of the workflow."
"The solution's workflows are its most useful feature."
"I like the design and the integration capacity. It's also easy to use."
"AgilePoint's most valuable feature is process management."
"AgilePoint has improved our organization by making form implementation easier and to plan for future growth."
"AgilePoint's automation is excellent in managing different user roles and handling data associated with a particular instance of the workflow."
"The initial setup of AgilePoint was very easy."
"Automation Anywhere has improved my company significantly; earlier we were dependent on the client installed on local machines, but now it is completely web-based, so we don't have to worry about having a dedicated VM."
"The most valuable features are ease of use and deployment."
"It saves time."
"The most valuable feature of the product is the flexibility. There are so many features that you can use to develop; it can hit a lot of use cases."
"What I appreciate the most about Automation Anywhere is how easy it is to use."
"I really like Screen Recording because it is used to record a task or a series of actions."
"Automation Anywhere's most valuable feature is its seamless integration into procurement software, allowing for the automation of purchase orders, billing, employee travel details, and other tasks."
"The development of the company from Automation Anywhere V11 to a2019 was valuable. I found many important and new features, like changing the way we write code and programming. It became much easier and very flexible in version 2019A. It became very easy to use and the recording was also good. Excel became very good too."
 

Cons

"It could be more flexible, but it's already a good solution for the designer."
"Some issues with AgilePoint's design, AI and UX are some of the major problems we deal with when handling our company's business models or processes."
"The solution should be able to support Docker. This would help make scalability easier."
"They should add more information about functionality."
"Integrations and customizations should be improved in AgilePoint and other low-code solutions."
"While the platform is good and it has a lot of options, I would like to see more alternative features in future versions such as connectors to IDM. Currently, they have only ADFS and Okta."
"Integrations and customizations should be improved in AgilePoint and other low-code solutions."
"One key feature we are looking for from Automation Anywhere is the need for a fully evolved CI/CD pipeline approach within our IT organization, given that we manage multiple applications."
"There's a loss of overhead on the computing resources in Automation Anywhere. If you have an encrypted bot, the Automation Anywhere software has to read it first, decrypt it, and run it. So there is a potential that, if the logic of the bot isn't good enough, a lot of CPU and memory overload will happen. This is something which Automation Anywhere should look at because it takes a lot of computing resources. I have seen CPUs running at 100 percent."
"We are still hoping to see improvements in its ability to have the client answer automatically and reconnect when Windows updates are applied."
"The IQ Bot could use improvement."
"Logging into Automation Anywhere takes some time. I use it frequently, and each login currently takes some time. A reduction in this time would be helpful."
"If I build a bot today and don't use it, however, in several months, someone tries to use it, there's a 30-40% change the bot will fail in one or two areas."
"You could improve the tools for reading CSV/Excel, also providing wizards or detailed guides, otherwise, it is quite complex to use them, especially at the beginning."
"The areas that need improvement are the license management, user access permission, user role access management, and technical support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe the pricing has changed recently. We had purchased one license per server, and it was about $2,000. It was a one-time payment. It's possible that they have recently implemented a new cost structure and now have yearly subscriptions."
"It is more cost-effective than local tools."
"Price-wise, AgilePoint is a cheap tool and a standard application for running analytics in an IT environment."
"I think the price is reasonable."
"When I started working on it, it was difficult to obtain a trial version (barrier to entry). Now, they have a Community Edition, which may make it easy to get started."
"The control room access gives the ability to create different roles, which helps when purchasing additional licensing."
"We brought onshore a lot of what we were doing offshore, saving our company close to $20 million."
"Our annual licensing costs are about $500,000."
"The pricing and licensing of Automation Anywhere plays an important rule in the Indian market because in the Indian market $10,000 USD is too much. Hence, the pricing tends to go down depending on the customer relationship with the partner: A starter pack is $10,000 and an enterprise pack is $100,000. If you go through an implementation partner, you can get good deals. They can save some money."
"It is somewhere in the middle. The price and value of Automation Anywhere are better than UiPath. The pricing is good globally. It could be a little bit cheaper, but it is good."
"We have seen the tangible benefits of taking monotonous work off people's plates, creating capacity, and cost reductions."
"The ROI is really good. We have saved time and money."
