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.

Have faced limitations due to integration complexity but have processed documents efficiently and reduced manual effort

Bedrock is basically a framework that can manage multiple large language models. Another useful tool is Amazon Textract which extracts text from documents. It helps with compliance because Amazon Textract itself doesn't store anything. When hundreds of documents are uploaded in an S3 bucket, the S3 bucket will store the documents, but Amazon Textract itself doesn't store anything. It pulls the contents of the documents and then passes them on to the next system, making it compliant. It helps in a great way by reducing the load on LLM and reducing the cost.

Automation has transformed invoice extraction and has reduced manual processing time dramatically

When it comes to improvements in UiPath IXP, there is a challenge with different languages, particularly Arabic invoices or handwritten ones, where there is some mismatch or difference in extraction. This could be improved. For instance, if there is a "Z" available on the screen, it may be identified as "2." Improvements in these two areas from the extraction point of view are necessary, along with considerations regarding pricing levels. In terms of support, UiPath is performing very well. Whenever we require assistance from UiPath, it has been positive. However, I would suggest that there is room for improvement in identifying complex different layout invoices, particularly for handwritten text, since there is potential for improvement in that area.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"There is a very accelerated learning curve on the platform."

"Automation Anywhere has led to faster growth in our organization."

"We have received 70 percent optimization using this solution."

"It is easy and simple to use with its drag and drop functionality."

"I found the new feature of integrating Python and HTML the most valuable."

"I have worked on other RPA tools but this is more logical and easy to use."

"The most valuable feature is the Excel operations because the most repetitive task which we used to do was Excel operations, and Automation Anywhere has the Excel commands feature where we can run Excel Macros, which is very valuable and is saving so much time for us."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The support is actually very good; I've worked with Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, but compared to the others, AWS support is excellent."

"Amazon Textract was easy to use."

"In a project, I integrated Amazon Textract with Bedrock and passed the extracted document text to the LLM using Bedrock."

"With the help of Amazon Textract, we are reducing labor and manpower because with just one API call, we can get all the extracted information with its coordinates."

"Amazon Textract is superior because it has features that allow you to use analytics or intelligent automation with the OCR; it will automatically identify key and value pairs, so you can use the data easily."

"AI Center is helpful for creating data sets. Machine learning helps with some extraction. The ML extractor gives good results after training."

"The best feature, in my opinion, is, we can train the document using a machine-learning classifier."

"I like UiPath's machine-learning capabilities. My first impressions were good, but we only use it in a few processes. We intend to expand our use of these features in other situations, but we're still learning how to use the AI functions. We use the OCR much more."

"The scalability it offers is truly exceptional, making it arguably the best in the market."

"I like the clear and organized way in which UiPath has structured the labeling process, as well as the user-friendly development environment."

"UiPath Document Understanding's image file extraction feature is the best in any OCR solution."

"Pre-trained models are valuable, and they work well."

"The solution removes manual processes and reduces human dependency. It takes a lot of effort to go through each physical mail or email, extract the data and transfer it to Excel. However, the solution automates the process and works 24/7. The tool gives a complete package to process and understand documents. The valuable features include taxonomy modification, classification, workstation, etc. There are out-of-the-box features like ML models which you can custom build. We have saved time with UiPath Document Understanding. We have seen a 50 percent improvement in scanning processes. Compared to humans, the tool runs 24/7. The human error rate has also been reduced. Our human error rate is five percent now compared to the previous 15 percent. UiPath Document Understanding has also freed up our staff who now spend more time on critical tasks."

More UiPath IXP pros

Cons

"It is nice being able to develop and manage/schedule scripts from the same web browser interface, but there are times I wish that the bot developer screen was made more user friendly."

"They need to improve the OCR engine which is not up to the market."

"One area for improvement in Automation Anywhere (AA) is its monitoring system. It's not that good. Both scalability and stability are also areas for improvement in the tool."

"Understanding what we wanted to do the tool after setup, that was complex."

"I attended and successfully completed the certification for the Document Automation Masterclass. For this, we tried to automate handwritten documents, but it was not successful. I believe there is room for improvement. This was the only use case we had in the last couple of months where we attempted this and did not get the desired results."

"I believe Automation Anywhere needs to improve on product quality. Sometimes it has intermittent issues."

"The Insight feature could be improved. I don't think there's a lot of information about how to use Insight, so you have to try different scenarios to understand that feature better."

"Sometimes, the recorder from Automation Anywhere does not work well and is inaccurate. This should be improved."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Some easy integration with other systems could be improved."

"Sometimes the tabular data does not process properly for complex tabular structures or complex tables."

"The product has not given correct results for me. It was not accurate, especially with handwritten items and documents with pencil marks, which Amazon Textract failed to identify correctly."

"They should provide an offline solution because in many areas in India and outside, there are clients facing Internet issues."

"There are also problems with handwritten documents. The results from those are not 90 percent accurate. With scanned and native PDFs, it is 90 to 99 percent accurate, but the accuracy of handwritten documents is somewhat less. If they could improve on that, it would also be helpful."

"Handwriting recognition in UiPath Document Understanding is very difficult."

"I encountered difficulties with UiPath Document Understanding in determining the appropriate OCR to use for certain files."

"The coding machine learning could be a little bit better."

"We have to do manual validation for some of the things due to the OCR engine not being so accurate. For example, S is read as 5, 5 as S, 2 as Z, and Z as 2. In the case of currency, if one dot is missing, it gives a completely incorrect number."

"UiPath Document Understanding requires more database connectors."

"The documentation should be more clear, or better training should be provided."

"Making the design of Forms AI more flexible and accommodating to companies' branding preferences would be beneficial."

More UiPath IXP cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing for Automation Anywhere (AA) is paid on a yearly basis. Out of all the RPA tools, it has the most value for money, e.g. what you pay is what you get."

"I am not involved in the pricing, but based on what I hear from our central RPA team, it is not very expensive; it is also not cheap. Its price is in the midrange."

"It is fantastic. It has been great. It is perfectly priced for the quality received. When paying for quality, that is exactly what you get."

"It looks like it will be right around $115,000, not counting IQ Bot, which we won't renew until later."
