Management Consultant at Accenture
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.

Automation has transformed invoice and bank processing but still needs faster setup and better integration
Automation Anywhere AI Agent could be improved in a few ways. Since I am currently working with Salesforce and I understand that to compete Automation Anywhere as a middleware product with Mulesoft or Informatica, the implementation phase needs to be quicker. The POC is always successful, but the implementation phase has to be quicker. The business needs to understand this better. Automation Anywhere should get into the business team and focus on explainability at the business level, not just a technical thing, but in the language or discussion where the business team can understand. There is clear business reasoning missing right now. The learning is strong within the process for sure, but there is limited reuse of learning across processes, which I think is very important. Simple model governance for business users is needed so that anyone should be able to use or create bots on Automation Anywhere. Right now, consultants and partners are needed in place. Additionally, Automation Anywhere should have native integrations with core platforms such as Oracle, SAPs, Salesforce, and ServiceNow. It should have out of the box integration rather than going for APIs because the deals which are not getting closed with Automation Anywhere or UIPath are purely because these organizations do not have out-of-the-box connectors available.

Sage Intacct Technical Consultant at a manufacturing company with 11-50 employees
Has reduced manual effort through customization and streamlined API-based integrations
The best features Sage Intacct offers include the import functionality, support for customization, and the platform that allows me to modify whatever I want. The triggers and reports are built very well and user-friendly, so I can modify this, and this is one of the best features it provides. The import functionality helps because once I download the template from Sage Intacct, I can fill out the specific columns with the data that I need to import into the system, and it will do the work instead of adding those details manually. The platform services allow me to add functionalities such as sending an email once I generate any AP bill or approve vendors. Additionally, I can call external API services or Sage Intacct API to validate those fields, which is good for users. Sage Intacct has positively impacted my organization through improved collaboration and saved time. I can import data easily, and since it is user-friendly, I encounter fewer errors. For example, the work I used to do in one or two days now gets completed in one or two hours.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The code automation platform is the most valuable feature."
"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."
"As a tool, IQ Bot is easy to use, powerful, and very competitive compared to others."
"Customers also are looking for the kinds of solutions that help enable their workforces to be more effective."
"It an easy, simple, and user-friendly tool that can be accessed through the mobile application as well."
"Automation Anywhere is excellent for integrating with other solutions. It provides the ability to leverage the APIs of third-party solutions. We use some of the already built-in MetaBots to then scrape the data and manipulate independent data that we need in order to integrate with other third-party solutions."
"Automation Anywhere's OCR functionality stands out as the most valuable feature for us, as it allows us to swiftly extract data for repetitive tasks, significantly boosting our efficiency."
"The solution helps with reducing operational costs, which can be reduced by up to 30% to 40% in savings in terms of operational cost."
"By automating repetitive processes such as data entry, report generation, and transaction processing, I reduced manual effort significantly as tasks that earlier took hours now take minutes, resulting in clear time savings."
"Since all three benefits are achieved—accuracy, efficiency, and cost saving—the business impact and dollar impact is really high."
"I feel Automation Anywhere AI Agent is better than Blue Prism in that specific context."
"I would say Sage Intacct is a great tool, and others looking into using it should evaluate how big their company is and if it is worth the amount they have to pay because it is a very robust system."
"We also use some of the other Sage solutions and for the most part, everything was integrated in the manner that I found beneficial."
"Sage Intacct, a full-fledged ERP, can handle complexity that smaller accounting software cannot handle."
"The reporting capabilities and automation and integration abilities in Sage Intacct make it easy to work with other third parties and collaborate effectively."
"Sage Intacct is a great app that makes our work much easier."
"I will highly recommend Sage Intacct to others, regardless of the UI, the response, the AI integration, and everything I appreciate about the financial features."
"The user-friendliness of Sage Intacct has helped my team and clients by saving customer time and our developers' and consultants' time; for instance, if a project takes 100 hours on Sage X3, it only takes about 60 or 50 hours on Intacct, allowing us to manage it from anywhere since it is cloud-based."
"I would strongly recommend any entity that has a need for software that is easily implementable and that's already structured to use the services."
 

Cons

"The cost of this solution can be improved."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved by addressing the server issues we occasionally encounter when running the bot on the runner."
"Especially while using v11, I often experience freezes with OCR extraction from PDF files."
"Their license model needs to be improved. The biggest issue for me is that the license is tied to a person, and it is not something that I can pass if I want to use it for the first five hours and pass it on to you for the next five hours and so on. When we automate, the license is tied to me, and if you or somebody else needs to use that license, as a COE administrator, I need to transfer the license from person A to person B. This is something that I have always told them that should not be this way because you want to utilize your licenses effectively."
"They need to improve the REST Api documentation because it is not well detailed or clear enough for beginners, and they need to provide some out-of-the-box AI and ML functions such as image classification and object identification."
"I would like more with OCR and data capture."
"I have seen that the South American support is not as good as it should be."
"The Excel command has some limitations that they are working on."
"When considering weaknesses and improvements, the platform does not give us the liberty to use our own features where we can bring out creativity."
"The OCR and document understanding of Automation Anywhere AI Agent still struggle with complex and unstructured formats such as invoices with multiple layouts, poor scan quality, or handwritten fields."
"The implementation cost even for a POC was very high, and that was a pain for all the customers."
"I see room for improvement in Sage Intacct, specifically regarding reporting, as it should be more versatile with the data; more add-on data would provide many more options, especially since API calls can be quite difficult."
"There's a little bit of room for improvement in the way that accounts payable approval workflows are set up. They could be a little more powerful than they are."
"I would rate the customer support from Sage Intacct a 3 or 3.5, while I would rate our reseller's support around 7 or 8."
"Their training is the biggest room for improvement, and their documentation can get very confusing."
"I believe data migration could be improved in Sage Intacct to save time and to minimize working with Excel when dealing with data migration."
"Sage Intacct is very strong overall, but if I had to suggest improvements, I would say the learning curve could be smoother for new users."
"While we can create, post, and manage general entries, we face a limitation in allocating multiple JL accounts."
"The mobile integration was still lacking on that front."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere is expensive."
"If we talk about the automation RPA. it definitely has worked very well for us. I'm talking about giving good savings, about more than 180 FTE savings, after implementing more than 200 plus bots. It has worked well. As an organization, it has supported us very well, and also for our customers."
"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."
"Automation Anywhere University is pretty good. They make it available free for everyone."
"The price of this product is good."
"Automation Anywhere's pricing falls within the mid-range, but the long-term benefits outweigh the initial investment."
"The starting price, which is a one-off fee is a bit high and this may deter mid and small-sized companies from acquiring and decide to shun the platform."
"The licensing cost of Automation Anywhere is better than UiPath and Blue Prism."
