In A Company at EPUS
Automation has boosted customer satisfaction and simplifies managing complex customer journeys
The best features AI Agent Studio offers include a very easy-to-use interface for the Africa market, a good orchestration tool for easy integration with third-party tools, and quick results when searching for any results on the interface. I find the pre-built templates that come with the package very good to use to kickstart any common businesses. For someone having a very basic system, this can be easily used to assign all technical tasks. Additionally, testing and debugging is very easy because AI Agent Studio definitely helps trace any reasoning steps, execution logs, and evaluate the accuracy before going live for clients.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"AI Agent Studio has positively impacted my organization with manifold results."
"My clients have seen tremendous value when it comes to automating business processes, and the robust nature of the application allows them to scale their business processes pretty quickly."
"Automation Anywhere has had a huge impact in my organization, especially in saving time and compliance-related process automation by reducing errors drastically and ensuring quick processing of requests with proper logs available for the audit team."
"I consider the verification station very useful because it allows you to quickly check if the data extracted are correct or if you need to change the process."
"Before the automation, it used to take about two to three hours, now, with automation, it takes about 40 minutes."
"Automation Anywhere helped me achieve my automation goals as it reduced turnaround time, cost, human intervention, and increased overall satisfaction levels for our customers."
"It automates forms for our customers and our analysts."
"The biggest benefit of Automation Anywhere is that it makes our processes error-free. Accuracy is how you build efficiency within the system and increase productivity."
"The features of Automation Anywhere improve my company by making deployment and maintenance of our automations a smoother process overall."
 

Cons

"In terms of improvements, AI Agent Studio can drastically enhance integration and tokens that have been used compared to the other competition."
"I would like to see a bot button."
"When it comes to Citrix automation, AA should improve or add more features in such a way that all the commands should work when automating a Citrix application."
"Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."
"We had initial hiccups, like any new process. It took us six to eight months to sort the product out."
"I would like a couple more features where I can talk and the line comes up automatically. I can just put on a mic, like in "Ok Google". With "Ok Google", I can tell it to please open an Excel spreadsheet with the header read. If this is there, then I don't even need to sit on a computer, I can just dictate my commands and it will automatically come up."
"We would like a better coding interface for developers. We would also like to have a user interface which reduces the time to learn the product so more people in the organization can use software, like Automation Anywhere, quickly automating processes."
"We have a challenge in our front office automation where capturing details from a table within a table does not happen in the existing AA Enterprise client version 11.3.4. The AA team tries various methods like using an Excel spreadsheet to capture the tables."
"The initial setup was complex because we had to make sure all the security aspects were approved by our leadership."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"AA comes at a more affordable price than the other tools."
"We were paying approximately $30,000 for a year license."
"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 control room access gives the ability to create different roles, which helps when purchasing additional licensing."
"I'm not sure what the monthly licensing cost is, as that is taken care of by another team, but I would say it's around $100,000."
"The solution itself is free unless we want to add the support option but we have to pay for the bots we use."
"It is cost-efficient in terms of licensing. I found their support good when I was working for the airline client. However, I hear from my managers here that the support price for Tier 3 or premium is a little higher. That is why we are not going for Automation Anywhere. Its price was okay for our client, but for us, it seems expensive."
"One of the things that will be good for the community will be to get the free version to download, which came out just a month ago called Community Edition. So, you can actually download it and try it for yourself."
