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

"Object cloning with an option to enter wildcard selection was very useful when working in a web application that generated dynamic HTML content."

"Bot Insights is the most valuable feature. We don't have to struggle with generating metrics around how the bots are performing. This information coming out of Automation Anywhere is useful to us because of the way the metrics are generated. It inspires confidence from our customers."

"It integrates with different types of applications, so we can automate our business partners' redundant, repetitive tasks."

"We have been able to reduce our number of FTEs."

"The deployment was good."

"Overall, I would rate Automation Anywhere a nine out of ten."

"Automation Anywhere's most valuable feature is its seamless integration into procurement software, allowing for the automation of purchase orders, billing, employee travel details, and other tasks."

"Automation Anywhere has a uniqueness with respect to the IQ Bot."

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 goal of any automation is to provide efficiencies... I would like a default feature where each bot gives us data on all the benefits it provides from its process."

"The solution could improve the integration with some web applications. It was difficult to manage them."

"Not all data is good quality. This presents a challenge for automation, which is important."

"The product needs improvements in dealing with remote servers and providing more APIs that will be used with other systems."

"As we expand our components of the Automation Anywhere platform that we utilize, we need better connections between them."

"We've had some technical difficulties connecting, but that's more on our environment and how we have the machines and everything set up. It's not specific to Automation Anywhere. However, it's pricier than some of the other tools."

"I would like to have a bot as a service platform on AA Cloud. This would minimize the installation process, and we wouldn't need to have all the hardware to support the platform in-house."

"Automation Anywhere can be improved in terms of complex logic implementation."

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

"They sell it by license, but if they could charge by case or by interaction, that might be better. Right now, it's expensive when you want to scale or use them for simple processes."

"We have seen a return of investment because it takes less time to market in our current process. I would estimate a times savings between 20 to 30 percent."

"We're just starting to renew our license, and we were quoted $115,000 without the IQ Bot. The IQ Bot is another $30,000. This is with very limited pages, as we go through our first projects. The majority of the cost was for ten days of onsite training."

"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."

"In terms of monetary savings, we automated a bot in three days that has saved us $30,000 in costs."

"While calculating the setup cost you should account for the server, virtual machines, product licenses, maintenance costs, and running costs."

"Talk to your manager and try to procure an automation license for training. This will allow you to train people, so you can move to automation."

"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."

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."
