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.

We use it for handling requests. It has reduced the IT staff required.
Handling requests - Technical service requests: hardware, software not working - Account requests: new/modify account requests to various systems - Software requests: of all types from our staff - IT related assets: hardware controlled by IT - All types of technical abuse complaints: ie copyright - Surveys about the follow-through of the staff to requests entered in the system

Prioritizes tasks and easily organizes messages and responses
I've not really noticed anything that needs to be improved with the solution. Generally, I enjoyed everything. Every feature LiveAgent has was a seamless journey for me. Maybe there are others who might notice one or two flaws on LiveAgent. I use LiveAgent, but based on my position in the company as a live chat professional, there is a level that I am restricted to. There are other products that are more popular and effective than LiveAgent, like Zendesk and HubSpot. They are among the most popular live chat products, and they have more users. I will advise that LiveAgent should look at what these other people are doing and use it to improve themselves. LiveAgent should add more functionalities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In some of our use cases, people were spending more than three hours per day just generating reports, and then we created an automation for this and it reduced the time to 30 minutes."
"In most of the use cases, both time and cost are being saved, which is the reason they are using these automations."
"With the help of these features, we can automatically fetch data from invoices and websites, which is followed by the automated data entry into the webpage and ERP system."
"Automation Anywhere has significantly helped us achieve our automation goals, mainly by reducing costs, which alleviates organizational burdens."
"The tutorials that are available from Automation Anywhere are very helpful for newbies to learn the platform and get going with the tool."

"Overall, I would rate Automation Anywhere a nine out of ten."

"I like that this solution provides the history and control over every process connected to a building so we can see everything that's happened since we started using this solution."
"Provides service level optimization."
 

Cons

"We have in-house, a few variables, which we use from technical perspectives. We don't have them in Automation Anywhere, but they introduced them yesterday."
"Cost is the biggest area in need of improvement for Automation Anywhere. Annually it's $250,000."
"I would like more integration with Microsoft Excel. More screenshots that can be integrated with Excel would help our customers too."
"We do not have the AI Agent Studio feature of Automation Anywhere available yet in our government GCC environment."
"The main problem that I have with Automation Anywhere is the support. When I have problems that I cannot solve by myself, it is hard to achieve a good result with support. Language is another issue."
"The older versions, like version 8 and 9, were not very stable."
"They have incorporated many latest technologies, such as AI, and there is always scope to improve the processes and have more stability."
"While the community provides a platform for interaction and resource sharing, not all training content aligns with the specific needs of developers."
"The GUI looks a little dated."
"There are other products that are more popular."
"There are other products that are more popular and effective than LiveAgent, like Zendesk and HubSpot."
"Connection to other softwares could be improved."
"I'd like to see an improved API to the system, rather than other softwares having to trigger everything."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The enterprise version is expensive for small businesses and individual users."
"The setup and licensing cost is affordable, and it is not exaggerated like UiPath."
"I would rate the cost an eight out of ten, with ten being the highest cost."
"Our advice is that anybody interested in this product should negotiate product bundles in order to reduce the cost of installation and setup."
"It's cheaper than other similar solutions."
"This solution costs approximately $3,500 USD per license."
"Annually, we are paying almost one million reais."
"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."
