Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The automation provided by this solution has saved us a lot of time.""Pattern recognition ultimately helps us to circumvent the problems in dealing with format variability in documents and allows us to capture the right data."

More AntWorks CMR+ Pros →

"We work on SAP as well as many other internal platforms, and this solution can very easily be moved between them.""The error handling and troubleshooting are very good. It is easy for a developer to know what happened in any particular line of code.""It doesn't require any coding knowledge. Any business person can automate this process.""The graphical user interface (GUI) is very useful, since I don't know any coding languages. I have been able to be a developer with Automation Anywhere without knowing the technical background. I am a business user, and not needing the technical knowledge to use the system has been useful for me.""The most valuable feature in this solution is the IQ Bot.""We did not encounter any stability issues with Automation Anywhere during the time I worked with the solution.""The most valuable feature is the power of AI Technologies involved in Automation Anywhere's IQBot - such as Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision, Fuzzy Logic, and Machine Learning.""The tool is a huge time saver. If I want to do something manually, it will take half an hour, but the bot can do the task within minute or seconds. In a day, month, or year, this will be a huge amount of time for me. A reduction to a fraction of seconds will be a big impact."

More Automation Anywhere (AA) Pros →

Cons
"We would like to see the overall accuracy increase from approximately 70% to perhaps 85%.""It would be very helpful to have a simple and extensive training guide, or training model, to help learn how to work with the product."

More AntWorks CMR+ Cons →

"Training is good and interactive but the final certification exam is very tough and it requires in-depth practical knowledge.""There's a loss of overhead on the computing resources in Automation Anywhere. If you have an encrypted bot, the Automation Anywhere software has to read it first, decrypt it, and run it. So there is a potential that, if the logic of the bot isn't good enough, a lot of CPU and memory overload will happen. This is something which Automation Anywhere should look at because it takes a lot of computing resources. I have seen CPUs running at 100 percent.""We do not have a precise area that needs improvement, but sometimes while running bots that traverse through different websites, the screen hangs or takes time to fully load.""I would like to see more stability around scheduling a bot to run headless.""The object cloning that exists cannot capture 80 percent of the objects that we need it to capture.""I would suggest adding more fields while calling in API. There is no option to generate Authentication token within the Bot.""The Control room audit logs should be moved to an archive for those that are more than six months old.""There are some business areas for which this tool is not capable of doing, such as in the areas of graphically-based input."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is really good, and it's based on usage."
  • More AntWorks CMR+ Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."
  • "Automation Anywhere is competitive... Pega is somewhat comparable, but Pega also requires a lot more infrastructure and a lot more experience to get up and running."
  • "Automation Anywhere is costlier than the general competition. That is aligned with the share of the market it has."
  • "They're very flexible around pricing and licensing."
  • "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 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."
  • "If you look at the capital expenditure, Automation Anywhere is number two to UiPath. But if you take a long-term view, on a scalable model of a large number of bots coming out, it slowly goes on to become the costliest tool. There is something they can do about that. The capital expenditure goes out right at the point of buying the tool. For Automation Anywhere, I would need to spend $20,000. UiPath can give me something for $6,000, while Blue Prism will come in at $300,000."
  • "It's cheaper than other similar solutions."
