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.

Our customer service and productivity have increased in quality and quantity since using this product
Agiloft has a great support team to help the process along. They are affordable, friendly, and knowledgeable. The tech support team acts like walking encyclopedias. They know databases and programming. After all these years, we hardly need to speak to Agiloft anymore. However, they have great customer support. Every time we need something from them, they make our small troubles go away quickly.

Has simplified remote software delivery and script management but needs improved reporting flexibility and better Mac support
NinjaOne's best features include ease of use regarding enablement and deployment, a broad selection and ability of software enablement, and API deliveries. Using CrowdStrike, we are able to tie in NinjaOne's API to have these automatically deliver to endpoints upon addition of those devices to a group with that policy deployed to it. NinjaOne has positively impacted our organization by making delivery easier for our end users and improving the ability to create scripts, manage scripts, and check status of devices and their compliance. This easier delivery with NinjaOne gives us oversight on devices without having to be on the call or remoted in directly to a device.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It improved on 40+ % of manual effort which was a pain point for project budget and Project team SMEs."
"The OCR is the most valuable feature, though this is a third party feature that we have integrated. It is quite easy to integrate with other solutions."
"The most valuable part is that it have the integrated OCR solution within it. All the other solutions do not have the right integration of the OCR solutions. You need to go to two different places to get one solution. Whereas, in IQ Bot, there is one area where you get all these solutions together in one area. That is the most important and beautiful point that I like about IQ Bot."
"The features are pretty easy to use, like the drag and drop feature. It is easy and understand, even a layman knows how the application works. All the basic stuff can be done by anybody."
"From the second year onward, ROI is achieved, which is a great thing because year-over-year you are accruing those benefits."
"It has helped us look at how our processes are organized."
"When our organization switched to Automation Anywhere, the accuracy rate improved and consequently, there has not been much data loss."
"Even a non-IT or business user can just look at the bot language and understand what the bot is doing, and that's the easy part."
"This product paid for itself within the first six months of use, and after about six months, we started making a return on our investment at more than 300%."
"Our customer service and productivity have increased in quality and quantity since using this product."
"Because this product is infinitely customizable and easily developed, we are using it for other applications."
"The most important aspect of this tool is the security it provides our company."
"NinjaOne helped us address our user complaints regarding the system as well as providing us the ability to push software updates directly from NinjaOne to the user's device."
"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
"We can use it for remote monitoring, and it also works great as a troubleshooting tool. We are able to open up a command line or a PowerShell session remotely without having to disrupt the user. They have a limited network device monitoring capability, but for workstation servers, we have the event logs. We can do performance monitoring, system changes, software deployment, and patch management. We can also push scripts. It has a very simple web interface. There are no additional things to do there. Security is also pretty good. It does the same things that the other competitor's tools do. One of the advantages of Ninja is that they have a more capable mobile app, which allows you to see the alerts immediately. I get alerted to major critical issues."
"If you're looking for a simple and cost-effective remote management tool, NinjaRMM is a good choice."
"NinjaOne allows even small teams of three users to support over 400 desktops and keep them up to date and working at peak performance."
"NinjaOne's best feature is its monitoring."
"NinjaOne has positively impacted our organization by making delivery easier for our end users and improving the ability to create scripts, manage scripts, and check status of devices and their compliance."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more complex use cases coming out for our industry."
"The IQ Bots need more out-of-the-box models to lessen the time required for model training. Their competitors provide more built-in models, which enhance capabilities in document processing."
"I would like to have a bot as a service platform on AA Cloud."
"To improve Automation Anywhere, I suggest enhancing the documentation and tutorials because sometimes they are not very clear."
"Right now, we are using a VM with Automation Anywhere installed inside it, but it would be nice if the solution could be used on macOS."
"It needs stability improvements. Sometimes, it becomes unstable."
"We are still hoping to see improvements in its ability to have the client answer automatically and reconnect when Windows updates are applied."
"Automation Anywhere could use to be more stabilized."
"We have found the documentation a bit confusing at times. This area could use some improvement."
"It can have more integrations with third-party providers, such as Deep Instinct. They do partner with certain antivirus or remote access tool partners, but they can increase their portfolio to have more choices."
"The one feature that I believe needs improvement is the software patching."
"The reporting is lackluster. NinjaOne is great for maintaining systems, but it's hard to use it to understand the state that systems are in without going in and mining the information myself. I rate the reporting two out of 10."
"I would like to see more scripts for PowerShell commands."
"Lacks sufficient integrations with other PSAs."
"Customer support is active and proactive, but not reachable 24/7, which is an issue."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They recently launched a Community Edition, which is okay, but they should have done this a long time ago."
"We have seen the tangible benefits of taking monotonous work off people's plates, creating capacity, and cost reductions."
"We save 34,000 hours of time per year and have recouped up to $6000 in lost revenue."
"Automation Anywhere has an advantage in terms of licensing. It is more cost-efficient compared to all other RPA platforms. It is a recommended solution when clients need a cost-efficient automation tool to perform unattended automation."
"The starting price, which is a one-off fee is a bit high and this may deter mid and small-sized companies from acquiring and decide to shun the platform."
"Automation Anywhere is costlier than the general competition. That is aligned with the share of the market it has."
"They give us a good deal on the licensing because we bundle and customize things. If you ask to get a bulk business deal, you will receive more benefit. If you take other products from the suite, like IQ Bot, you can also receive a deal on the licensing."
"We're paying a monthly subscription fee for the bot and for services. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"After about six months, we started making a return on our investment at more than 300%."
"Agiloft has by far the best entry point for both cost and learning curve."
"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
"NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
"Its pricing is great."
