Management Consultant at Accenture

Has significantly improved document-driven workflows and reduced processing time across finance and HR functions

Automation Anywhere has evolved significantly and upgraded itself to provide agentic AI and AI-based automation solutions for document automation. The product has matured considerably over time. We can create workflows that can call an API. We can include prompts in particular workflows for ChatGPT-related functions, connecting to an LLM and RAG to perform tasks. For document automation, modern features are available to train documents, ensuring high accuracy and repeatability over time. The system is very easy to use. I recently completed a course in document automation, typically designed for people involved in coding and technical aspects. Though I understand coding comprehensively, I don't do actual coding. The course was very accessible. Currently, extensive coding isn't necessary due to the hybrid model incorporating GenAI aspects, low-code, no-code capabilities, APIs, and numerous pre-built objects in Automation Anywhere. The features include GenAI-driven prompting methods and workflow creation capabilities. In these workflows, we can create decision boxes and call APIs without coding. We simply pull objects, drop them, connect them, and add minimal coding when needed. The most crucial aspect isn't coding but rather sizing the automation and fleshing out the details. Automation Co-pilot takes notes and performs automated analysis. It can extract details from videos, summarize conversations, and provide detailed information. During calls, it identifies instructions and performs tasks such as preparing reports and reconciliation. Automation Anywhere can also connect with Microsoft Co-pilot. Through Co-pilot, real-time operations can be executed, allowing direct interaction between vendors and automation through this component.

Business processes are automated efficiently with a well-designed interface

There is room for improvement in integrations and customizations for AgilePoint and other low-code, no-code solutions. Additionally, the marketing of such products should be more honest. They often claim to solve all process automation needs, but they only handle problems of certain complexity. AgilePoint cannot handle highly complex processes like ERPs.

Impressive flexibility and support enhance integration and performance

The best feature of Blue Prism that I value the most is the simplicity of their pricing and licensing model, which is easy to understand. The tool is very robust and, being a pioneer in the sector, it is also very stable, particularly in finance where many companies rely on Blue Prism for its reliability and security standards. From a developer perspective, I find developing on Blue Prism simple, clean, and intuitive, making maintenance considerably easier compared to other tools. These AI features have helped in developing scalable and flexible solutions for my customers, as I worked on use cases that involved natural language processing to turn free text into structured data, enabling automation of previously unautomatable tasks. Additionally, I processed voice feedback for sentiment analysis and information extraction, making interactions more intuitive and voice-driven for customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Having a cloud-based deployment provides more flexibility because we just need an internet connection for connecting the agent into the AA cloud."

"RPA is a feature that really helped eliminate errors during the execution of structured business processes."

"The solution helps with reducing operational costs, which can be reduced by up to 30% to 40% in savings in terms of operational cost."

"It is very easy for anybody to learn."

"AA allows you to create processes using 3 types of robots: Task Bot, Meta Bot, and IQ Bot. Instead of rewriting redundant code for processes, a meta bot can be used instead. This type of robot is best used for complex scalable processes. IQ Bot: The most powerful of the 3 types of robots is the IQ Bot."

"Automation Anywhere has a very rich and easy to use interface. This makes it very intuitive. As an organization, we give training to business users to help them automate themselves. It is an easy to go, create your own scripts, and logic. The typical commands which they have in the workbench are very helpful for us."

"Movement on cloud architecture according to me provided by AA2019, will be most beneficial as it will be easy to use and will provide flexibility."

"The deployment of Automation Anywhere went smoothly. They were very supportive with the migration of all of our existing automations and also being there and supportive with the development of the new automations."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"AgilePoint's most valuable feature is process management."

"The solution's workflows are its most useful feature."

"I like the design and the integration capacity, and it's also easy to use."

"Anytime companies need any solution with workflow, they can base it on AgilePoint, because AgilePoint allows companies to design and implement workflows very fast using the system's interface."

"The initial setup of AgilePoint was very easy."

"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."

"We started with a very small team and small projects. As the project started getting success with Blue Prism we have a large number of teams now just for automating all the business procedures. Larger time was saved after automating the processes."

"This solution has helped us become more efficient, as we have been able to automate certain processes, up to 85% of the work in some claims processing areas."

"You don't need to be a technical developer to develop in Blue Prism, you follow the natural way you have developed."

"I do not have any IT training, but I am still able to master this skill and develop Blue Prism solutions."

"I like the cloud features such as IADA and Decipher."

"One key feature is the workflow design is able to be customized according to the way that you want the automation to work."

"We are using Blue Prism to automate any of your manual tasks that are related to desktop, web-based applications, email, and Excel, and for any two-handled records that have been created with many items and have been automated, we use Blue Prism to manage them."

"Blue Prism has improved process efficiencies, and we can get some maximum optimization with ticket processing."

More Blue Prism pros

Cons

"Giving access to our internal websites was not simple during the initial setup."

"We have used the technical support. I am quite unhappy with the support part."

"I would like a couple more features where I can talk and the line comes up automatically."

"However, it does not work as well with retrieving data from images."

"It has been challenging integrating Automation Anywhere with other solutions, due to all of the controls, as we are a bank."

"The expectations of what we thought was possible, versus what appears to be possible, were a little bit off."

"The main issue I identify is that the cost of the enterprise-scale license and add-ons can be a barrier for small businesses."

"One key feature for improvement I have been providing feedback on through the MVP program is enhancing natural language conversation to action. The Automation Anywhere product team is actively putting this feature into their roadmap, which I believe is crucial."

More Automation Anywhere 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."

"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."

"The solution should be able to support Docker. This would help make scalability easier."

"Technical support is very slow to respond and they need to be quicker in getting back to clients when problems arise."

"Integrations and customizations should be improved in AgilePoint and other low-code solutions."

"They should add more information about functionality."

"They improve more in OCR, to read text more correctly, currently can say OCR in blue prism only works for less cases and is only effective 50%. so mostly OCR's of Blue prism is very less used and other API's or tools are integrated with Blue prism for OCR techniques."

"As a user, I cannot directly work with the bot. On a daily basis, I use and do some work in Microsoft Excel, which cannot be directly taken into Blue Prism. Our company majorly runs on Microsoft Excel. Everybody has Excel sheets as their working sheets. Therefore, we need a kind of automation to be able to do things with this program. This bot is almost like an invisible staff that works between the servers but not with the users. This bot works well with SAP and things like that, but it doesn't work with Excel sheets. It doesn't work with the bots that we have, and I cannot invoke an RPA right now as a user. It has to be done by an administrator who has better control than me. It needs better integration with Microsoft Excel. Its price can be improved. It is expensive for us. It should be cheaper for a market like ours. We are based in India."

"From a monitoring perspective, the way the screens are set up, or the reporting within Blue Prism, is not really user-friendly. You need a technical person to basically put that up. It's not necessarily easily viewable."

"They cannot do assisted automation. That is a drawback because that technology is very old now."

"To summarize, I think that this product is good for business but it's terrible for developers."

"I would like to see wider integration with other products."

"The domain in regards to cognitive abilities and the use of processing activity needs improvement."

"Blue Prism is a little behind Automation Anywhere in the topics related to maintenance and report building."

More Blue Prism cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is expensive. Automation Anywhere has reduced the price slightly, as we have grown. However, the price is still excessive enough that we are engaged in PoCs on other tools."

"Talk to your manager and try to procure an automation license for training. This will allow you to train people, so you can move to automation."

"The major reason that we selected Automation Anywhere was the licensing model."

"I don't agree with the IQ Bot licensing costs, which depends on the consumption of the document rather than per bot or user. This is confusing for me, because most of the cases for us in a possible future scenario, there would be a lot of invalid data to be scanned to get to real data. E.g., we would have to supply approximately 100 pages of scanned data to extract two pages of original data. In these type of cases, the IQ Bot might be a costly venture."

"Complaints are generally about the cost of IQ Bot, which is higher than its competitors. The base model’s pricing is comparable to other platforms with attended, unattended, and IDP capabilities as well."

"It costs up to $1,200 per license."

"Our advice is that anybody interested in this product should negotiate product bundles in order to reduce the cost of installation and setup."

"Including the AWS setup and everything per license, it costs us around $10,000 on an annual basis. I believe that is pretty reasonable considering the teams that we have."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"I think the price is reasonable."

"Price-wise, AgilePoint is a cheap tool and a standard application for running analytics in an IT environment."

"It is more cost-effective than local tools."

"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."

"I don't recall what it was. Initially, we had our licensing through the consultant, and when we stopped using them, we renegotiated licensing. Blue Prism gave us temporary licenses during the negotiation. When all things were said and done, it came out to a decent price even without the vendor. So, our management has been happy with that."

"Licensing is on a yearly basis."

"They work on a big partnership kind of program with our organization, and they also give us a lot of discounts. Its price is pretty much comparable to the other solutions like UiPath and Automation Anywhere."

"Blue Prism is an expensive solution, especially in Southeast Asia, while in Europe and the UK, it can be considered moderate in terms of cost."

"It is a bit higher in cost as compared to Automation Anywhere and UiPath. The rate also differs from client to client. Margins are also important when it comes to costing and licensing. There are some additional costs involved besides the standard licensing costs. You have the development team cost, which includes the project manager, development team, analyst, and testers. You also need a team manager. You also have the tools cost, architecture cost, platform cost, and the licensing cost of each bot."

"Its license is costlier than UiPath and AA. They should improve its price. We have a two-year contract with them."

"Due to our financial structure, we need fixed costs. So, a license based on the usage would not be feasible. If we have a license model that is based on tasks per year or something else, it could create a very dynamic range of costs. Due to our public financial input, we have to know what it will cost. So, we have licenses per server. This helps us in planning, and we know exactly when we need additional servers. We can then request additional money for them."

"The licensing fees are low compared to other tools."
