Accommodates diverse use cases and effectively meets customer requirements

AI agents need further improvements. AI agent technology in agentic process automation is still evolving. We have only scratched the surface, and there are many potential use cases yet to be explored. As technology advances, I believe it will enable us to implement more comprehensive automation solutions. Document Automation has issues related to speed. When I compare Document Automation with IQ Bot, IQ Bot is faster than Document Automation. My understanding is that they are still evolving Document Automation, and this issue of slowness will be resolved in the upcoming .35 version, so we are good with that. They are working on signature identification and validations for handwritten documents. Currently, we are able to extract data out of scanned but digital images, but there is still scope for improvement for handwritten documents.

Powerful tool, beneficial process mining variants, and scalable

The initial setup of Process Mining Group ProM was easy for me. However, I have been an application manager for quite some time and I am not comparable to the average person. I was able to install the solution within a few minutes. Additionally, we use the solution for summer school, we have to develop course material around it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's pretty simple and non-invasive."

"It improved the task performance at a team level and improved productivity."

"In 2018, we looked at some other products on the market, but Automation Anywhere was a perfect fit. We didn't have any issues that Automation Anywhere couldn't solve. The critical factor for us was its ease of use. We liked the drag-and-drop interface and the low-code capabilities."

"The ability to automate low decision, highly repetitive tasks and clear large backlogs of tasks that we could not do with our human staff."

"During the digital transformation of a company, the number of internal portals and applications increases leading to an increased number of data silos."

"The Visual Studio integration is smooth and user-friendly."

"We mostly used the Database commands in order to make the process faster and more secure, rather than using Excel or a CSV for reading the input files."

"It has streamlined many manual processes, eliminating errors and inefficiencies. It has also allowed us to introduce metrics, so we can generate operational reports and improve our overall business."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The most valuable feature of Process Mining Group ProM is the toolkit it provides all kinds of variants of process mining. They have one option that you can visualize which processes you mine, and that's a very powerful tool."

Cons

"The workflow has a complex drag-and-drop interface that is not user-friendly and requires a good technical understanding, which can be challenging for users."

"OCR technology could be more inclusive by offering a wider range of supported languages, as its current selection is limited."

"It would be great if they provide installation documents that are easier to understand, place more focus on capturing the fields, and most importantly, concentrate more on the OCR capability."

"If you work with image recognition and custom objects, there are stability issues."

"I used document automation about two years ago, however, it did not work as expected at that time, providing results around 70% to 80%. After that, we turned to third-party tools."

"Because we are very new to our process, so we're still sort of working through it."

"The key area where improvement can happen is understanding the different perspectives and different industries that they're serving in terms of industry-wise use cases."

"I would like to see them expand the service catalog with RCA add-ons to the current RPA package."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Process Mining Group ProM could improve user-friendliness and the error messages that are provided are not helpful for end users."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cost is the biggest area in need of improvement for Automation Anywhere. Annually it's $250,000. That's what deterred us right away."

"Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."

"Considering the cost, it is a bit high, but worth the price because the output accuracy is high."

"When you compare the cost of Automation Anywhere with UiPath and Blue Prism, those others are much less. Licensing-wise, UiPath wins the deal."

"It is reasonable, but it can always be a little bit cheaper."

"Approximately, for a developer, it is around $750 for a license a year. For Bot Runners, it is about $550."

"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."

"My only suggestion in terms of pricing is very generic and that is to consider that as much as RPA saves cost and does automation, please get a realistic estimation done on whether you are really achieving any ROI over your investment with RPA."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"Process Mining Group ProM is an open-source solution that is free from the University of Eindhoven. Additionally, students can use it for one month after they have done some practicing with it."
