Nadeem K.

Rpa Developer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees

Automation has freed teams from repetitive finance and supply tasks and supports global operations

In the current organization, we had trouble initially because I think the documentation and support could be better than what it is now. This is one difference between Automation Anywhere and other RPA tools such as UiPath. In UiPath, if you have an issue, you go to the UiPath website and search for it, and you get lots of help materials. In Automation Anywhere, you do not get exactly what you are looking for. You get a very large number of results when you search for something, and from this large result set, you have to filter out what you need, or only partial information will be available. User handbooks are available for each product. In that regard, I would say Automation Anywhere is lagging compared to other RPA tools. It is difficult to get hold of their customer support team. I want to clarify that it is not a matter of us building logic on Automation Anywhere and it failing. When it is a product-related issue, they have to give us support because we only know how to develop within Automation Anywhere. We do not know how to fix Automation Anywhere itself. Whenever we have an issue, trying to get in touch with them always takes three to four business days.

reviewer2649213

Chief Technology Officer at a tech services company with 1-10 employees

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.

Aditya Bhatt

Sr. Project Delivery Lead | Sr. Technical Lead at a manufacturing company with 5,001-10,000 employees

Rapid delivery has transformed complex enterprise apps and supports faster cross-domain projects

Every platform or low-code platform tool is quite good in its own area, but there is always space to groom or enhance or improve. The same is with OutSystems as well. A couple of things from the integration point of view can be enhanced. If your application or the enterprise organization is tackling a huge data application where you have bulk amounts of data, it becomes a challenge for all the technologies and the same with OutSystems. You have to design your architecture in a very magnificent and decent way so that how you process your data so that load can be easily balanced. Data handling and huge data handling is a kind of challenge you may need to face. Then we have some vendor lock-in. If you are trying to migrate your application from OutSystems, then you probably get into this vendor lock-in system. Some organization may face challenges if some organization is on a small scale size. The small scale businesses may find OutSystems costly because of its high cost and pricing due to the licensing cost. Apart from that, OutSystems really plays well, and it needs a learning curve. If a traditional application or programming is there which your developers are skilled into and they are directly deployed into OutSystems, it may take some significant amount of time for them to get comfortable with OutSystems. There is a learning curve. OutSystems community is already in place, but it can more be enhanced regarding some aspects. They did organize lots of bootcamps and other user groups as well, but those can also be improved from the documentation point of view and having some integration guidebook as well. A couple of things which can be improved into OutSystems include the licensing cost, the vendor lock-in side, the learning curve, couple of integration aspects and customizations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best feature is the drag-and-drop command. Users with less coding knowledge can also automate their end-to-end processes very easily."

"In general, when you set up the cloud solution, it's very, very easy."

"The document management processes that IQ Bot gives has very good functionality of how you can actually take unstructured data and make sense out of it, connecting inferences, then making the data available to the user. So, IQ Bot is one of the best tools that I can think of in that aspect. This solves the problem of various document structures, document formats, etc."

"We reduce the time that scientists spend on manual tasks and put them on more value-added work."

"We have a lot of clients who use AA bots in their own process. Automated that are automated require less human input. AA bots save lots of time, increase efficiency, deliver accurate output, and provide consistency which improves the overall function of processes in different domains."

"From an SAP point of view, we have in-built features. They have integrated everything together, so it's much easier for us to use that."

"Easy to access: Without the need to download and install software on a local machine, we can access the RPA application from virtually anywhere."

"Overall, this is a great tool because it's easy to maintain and it can reduce hiring costs, leading to reduced overall costs in the future."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"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."

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

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

"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."

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

"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it allows users to easily build applications."

"One thing I like about OutSystems is that there's no lock-in. You can keep running your applications because it's on .NET and hosted centrally. That's one of the advantages I see there in terms of not having an IT strategy that has a dependency on a particular platform."

"The flow editor is the most valuable feature. It is simple and intuitive, and it can guide you step-by-step."

"The solution is all-encompassing and very easy to use with its drag-and-drop feature."

"We used almost all of the features, themes, styling guide, and approach components. They are useful in our applications."

"Let's assume a project in .NET, native .NET, or Java takes around 12 months. In OutSystems, we can build that application in four to five months."

"OutSystems allows you to do things really quickly; this product requires very little maintenance, and it is easy to do as compared to traditional programming solutions."

"The drag-and-drop feature is very valuable."

More OutSystems pros

Cons

"I would like to see more complex use cases coming out for our industry."

"They often provide good solutions, but sometimes they are unable to resolve issues, requiring users to find solutions independently, which can be time-consuming."

"When it comes to stability, complex bots always have issues."

"With Oracle and ServiceNow, there seem to be challenges. With SAP, it worked very well."

"When we try to process structured documents but with some little pen marks, improper partitions, or faded documents, IQ Bot fails to extract data properly out of them."

"Extracting customer addresses from Google that are not in a standard URL format is a challenge for Automation Anywhere."

"Automation Anywhere has some limitations."

"Had we had access to the RPA bots in advance, we would have practiced before fully implementing."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"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."

"They should add more information about functionality."

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

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

"It could be more flexible, but it's already a good solution for the designer."

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

"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."

"I would like to see OutSystems improve its integration capabilities, especially with emerging technologies like AI and GPT."

"The small-scale businesses may find OutSystems costly because of its high cost and pricing due to the licensing cost."

"The solution is costly."

"OutSystems could improve by being more like GitHub. It would be more helpful for us for division management and version control for our application."

"The largest obstacle currently associated with OutSystems is its high cost and limited availability of skilled personnel. Despite being a rapid application development platform, having a highly skilled individual familiar with the platform can be much more beneficial than an inexperienced individual. Because there is a shortage of people with the necessary OutSystems skills, utilizing the platform can become expensive. This makes little sense, considering that a rapid application development platform should be accessible to the average person. However, having a highly skilled individual can greatly increase productivity, making the cost worthwhile."

"The PDD framework can't be used for the behavioral-driven development way of working."

"Currently, in mobile applications, we don't have push notifications."

"We had some lagging issues under high data loads, and the solution needed to be customized to improve this."

More OutSystems cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We paid separately for the Runner and Creater components. The final cost depends on the structure of your environment."

"In the Indian market, I feel that for mid-size companies, such as ourselves, that having multiple bots costs a lot. If Automation Anywhere wants to expand in the Indian market, they will need to look at their pricing."

"The initial setup and licensing fees are high, and although it saves costs in the long run, reaching the break-even point can take at least six months."

"Automation Anywhere might have a higher upfront cost than some competitors, but its extensive features and seamless integration with other tools can save organizations money in the long run."

"I think it's $5,500 per license."

"The licensing cost for Automation Anywhere is high."

"In most of the cases, the product value is very good. If the infrastructure, implementation, and framework are good, then generally, the client can get a good return on investment."

"I am using that Automation Anywhere Master Certification for version 11. Recently, this has been updated in Automation Anywhere University. Until this month, it's free to use. There are no charges. That's why I would like to complete it this month."

More Automation Anywhere 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."

"I believe they have two pricing options. One is approximately $4000 USD a year and the other is approximately $10,000 USD a year."

"There are no additional costs with the standard license."

"It is very high price."

"There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to OutSystems. It is an expensive product."

"I think the pricing for OutSystems is comparable with similar solutions. I would place it somewhere in the middle. We pay for the bundle and don't pay anything extra in terms of licensing and other fees."

"I believe they are very strict with their pricing platforms, or the pricing policies, and it changes."

"Pricing could be a concern. You have to pay yearly, even after you have completed your development."

"The solution is expensive."
