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.

Cloud backups have secured critical data and have enabled fast recovery from ransomware threats
I do utilize the automated policy-driven operations with Veritas Alta Data Protection. They have helped in reducing manual workloads because manual intervention is required to handle errors or backup job failures when trying to back up a particular AWS account where critical resources are deployed. Discovery takes a lot of time because we are backing up data already in the S3 buckets. We often face challenges with resource discovery because discovery does not happen once a month; it happens daily. Every day, the discovery job runs before backing up resources. We may encounter issues in discovery or related to permissions, meaning if we have backup permissions on a bucket but further intensive permissions are present on any particular file, the Veritas Alta Data Protection job will skip that file. At times, backup fails with one or another error, and manual intervention is definitely needed. It is predominantly automated and policy-driven, but manual intervention is also required sometimes. We tested the effectiveness of Veritas Alta Data Protection's granular restoration feature during POC because we had a requirement to test various scenarios like restoring the bucket in a particular region, restoring the bucket in a different region, restoring EC2 instances, restoring containers, and databases. One more crucial feature for us in selecting Veritas Alta Data Protection is having replication between Veritas Alta Data Protection clusters. Once the primary backup job is complete, Veritas Alta Data Protection runs an SLP job, which is a storage lifecycle policy. This SLP job moves or replicates the data from one Veritas Alta Data Protection cluster to another. If the Veritas Alta Data Protection cluster goes down, the data is still replicated to the other Veritas Alta Data Protection cluster.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We are now building all these checks through Automation Anywhere AI Agent which will do all the AI checks and then give the decision whether the policy is to be issued or not."
"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."
"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."
"The ransomware protection feature and anomaly detection are the most valuable, and the ability to integrate new cloud workloads is also valuable."
"Regarding cost-effectiveness and return on investment, we have seen benefits in the form of saving time and resources."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"Veritas Alta Data Protection is an industry leader, and I am quite impressed by the leadership that they have in this segment."
"It is rather easy to replicate data across your cloud environment using this solution once you've done it a few times."
"In the last two years, we faced issues with ransomware, but because of the encryption level which we set with this backup software, we were able to restore all of our data without losing a single file."
 

Cons

"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."
"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 implementation cost even for a POC was very high, and that was a pain for all the customers."
"I hope we will be able to use Veritas Alta Data Protection in a very user-friendly manner, which is what I am expecting from Veritas features."
"It would be nice if reporting was a bit easier."
"NetBackup should be made more user-friendly, and a video tutorial should be created to help new users understand how to configure and use the solution properly."
"Since Veritas Alta Data Protection recently entered the market, it does have limited technical resources for support."
"The IVR system should be reduced so that customers can reach support directly, as when someone calls, it is typically for a critical technical issue and the call should connect directly to a representative."
"Maybe a year and a half ago, during a backup, I had an updating issue with Java."
