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.

Email reminders notify relevant individuals and departments that contracts are due to be renewed or have expired.
Safe Horizon has successfully implemented the Agiloft Contract Management System as tailored to meet the specific needs of our organization’s contract approval and renewal workflow. The flexibility and relative ease of implementing functionality and modifications without programming has proven to be most striking. We were pleased by the functionality and smooth integration between Agiloft and DocuSign. The handoff of documents from Agiloft to DocuSign and back again to Agiloft is easy and seamless. The capability of being able to sign internal documents, as well as those requiring both internal and outside vendor signatures without necessitating a great deal of setup can help facilitate the contract completion process.

Automated NDA workflows have streamlined contract drafting and approvals for my team
The best features Ironclad offers are that it is very easy to use and very easy to customize; you do not need to be a developer to customize it and to create your own workflows. When I say it is easy to customize, I mean creating the questions and creating the conditions in the template. For example, if you have different businesses and depending on the type of business, you want to customize a document such as an NDA, it is quite easy to do it by yourself inside Ironclad. Ironclad has impacted my organization positively because it is more efficient, allowing us to spend less time on easy tasks and therefore spend more time on more complex tasks. I would estimate 15 to 20% time saved on our side indicates the efficiency gains.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There were about three to four people who were manually updating data into a system, then we replaced that process or augmented that with a bot that now reaches data and enters it on behalf of users, which gives significant hours back to the business so those people can work on some other high value task."
"The most valuable feature of Automation Anywhere is the automation that frees up time for our employees to engage with customers."
"It is easy to learn and easy to deploy. That is the best part compared to the other RPA solutions available in the market. Automation Anywhere is easier than UiPath and Blue Prism."
"When considering all the facts, this is one of the most user-friendly RPA tools that I have worked with."
"The most valuable feature of our solution is the cognitive computing because that is coming onto stream a lot faster than you would think. What used to be in the middle of, "Can this be done or not?", is becoming, "It can be done." We are getting some incredible straight through processing rates with AR around healthcare and financial services."
"Automation Anywhere can be considered as one of the most stable RPA tools in the industry, according to the perspective of the limited amount of tools that I've used."
"We are able to sell it very easily compared to its competitors. Another piece is the stability part. The third piece is something which is the customer experience: The ease to work with it. The Automation Anywhere, as a partner, is very easy to work with. They are there when you need them, whether you are in the initial journey of automation, you are figuring out what is the right opportunity, or whether you are in the journey of deploying the bot or support. They are there with you at each of those stages."
"We have increased our productivity internally by using RPA with our employees who are completing the same tasks every day."
"Safe Horizon has successfully implemented the Agiloft Contract Management System as tailored to meet the specific needs of our organization’s contract approval and renewal workflow."
"Project HOME has easily recovered its initial capital outlay in the first year from simple centralization and automated approval tracking."
"We have been working with Agiloft Contract Management Suite for the past 6 months and have found it an extremely useful and user friendly solution to our contract management challenge."
"It is obvious to me that Agiloft can handle much more than contract management, as the specific requirements that were not part of Agiloft's initial configuration were implemented seamlessly."
"The best features Ironclad offers are that it is very easy to use and very easy to customize; you do not need to be a developer to customize it and to create your own workflows."
 

Cons

"I would like better support. The technical support is mediocre. The support is sometimes really good, and sometimes it is really bad."
"It is a bit wonky with HTML when I'm working with it. There are times when it's not able to detect the technology that we are using. I don't know whether it's an Automation Anywhere issue or an internal issue. I want it to work smoothly with more technologies."
"There should be a way to avoid recoding everything whenever there's an upgrade to the latest version."
"The automated regression testing could be better. I need to build my own testing suite, and I know other tools have built-in testing suites. That is an area that's very weak in this platform."
"When a bot is in production, sometimes the keystrokes will not work. I am not sure why, and we have tried to contact technical support. They said that they don't have an answer for this. It happens in the the remote environment when we are deploying a bot into AWS machines. So, technical support said this happens in AWS machines sometimes: If the bot is running and the machine is locked, then at that time, the key strokes will not work. They have provided that solution, but we are trying to avoid keystrokes now."
"In Automation Anywhere, the logging process is manual. We have to manually log each instance where the bot fails or the progress of a task. Automating this through a new feature would help developers simplify their development process."
"We also got a tool from Automation Anywhere that was supposed to fix or patch a problem, but it didn't work. It was a horrible, pathetic product that they brought out when it wasn't ready."
"I would like to see GitHub or GitLab integration in the next version."
"If there is an area for improvement, it would be in the mobile aspect."
"One possible area of improvement would be reporting."
"One area of improvement I would suggest Agiloft to focus on would be how users interact with attachments to records."
"Ironclad can be improved by integrating with artificial intelligence; it does already, but it is not really useful at the moment as it has many bugs and a lot of inaccuracy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We just did a round of price comparison on a global scale and found it's so hard to compare the license prices. But, Automation Anywhere, in general, is on the same price level as the other vendors, a bit lower in some cases."
"The licensing cost could be improved. It costs a lot. At the very least, the developer licenses and the control panels should be made free to enterprises, and the production environment licensed."
"Despite being less expensive than UiPath, Automation Anywhere remains cost-prohibitive for many small and medium-sized businesses."
"The cost is at the highest end of the spectrum."
"Automation Anywhere is expensive, making it suitable only for enterprise organizations."
"Automation Anywhere's pricing is significantly higher than other RPA solutions."
"We have a three-year contract with Automation Anywhere."
"It's an ideal pricing model to customize the components based on everyone's needs."
