Sentiment score
7.1
Bizagi offers responsive customer support, though response speed varies, with premium plans mitigating delays; online resources aid accessibility.
Whenever we need help, we can reach out to them, and they help us out.
We also have dedicated account managers and technical experts to solve our problems related to Automation Anywhere.
We just have to raise a ticket, after which we receive a call, email, or ping from the Automation Anywhere team.
It is a community product, there is not much support we can expect.
The toolset is very intuitive, so we didn’t need to contact their support much.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.5
Automation Anywhere is scalable and flexible, suitable for large organizations, though budget considerations and infrastructure are necessary.
Sentiment score
6.6
Bizagi scales well with Azure cloud support, though price and server resources affect performance in large expansions.
For Windows-based applications, it provides UI interface automation, which enhances its scalability.
Automation Anywhere is highly scalable for both horizontal and vertical expansions.
I would rate it a nine out of ten for scalability.
There is no direct scalability option.
If I rate scalability from one to ten, I would probably give it a six.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.1
Automation Anywhere offers generally stable performance, though users occasionally face issues, particularly during updates and transitions.
Sentiment score
7.0
Bizagi is generally reliable but experiences occasional freezes, slow loading, and performance issues, especially with large processes or updates.
With the latest applications, there are no significant issues like freezing or crashing.
The platform runs smoothly, and the deployment process is user-friendly in both UAT and production environments.
It usually does not lag or crash.
 

Room For Improvement

Automation Anywhere requires improvements in user-friendliness, stability, integration, support services, pricing, and accessibility for better user experience.
Bizagi struggles with performance, licensing complexity, and inadequate integrations, hindering workflow efficiency, collaboration, and user experience.
It is better to write a Python script instead of using Automation Anywhere's package when dealing with Excel because it is buggy and tends to break.
Making the product more lightweight by reducing its dependency on infrastructure could greatly help in the long run.
It would be beneficial if the platform provided options for power developers to integrate seamlessly with languages like Java or C#, allowing them to write their own scripts and code.
Reporting capabilities can be improved more, and community support should be increased.
For more mature environments, the integration to live systems is lacking, which affects its applicability.
 

Setup Cost

Enterprise buyers view Automation Anywhere as more expensive, suiting large organizations needing comprehensive features and flexible pricing.
Bizagi provides a free modeling version, pricier enterprise features, and cloud options; smaller organizations find it valuable.
It is more cost-efficient compared to all other RPA platforms.
Automation Anywhere costs are aligned with UiPath and Blue Prism, which are also expensive.
It is not cheap, with costs ranging between 700 to 800 dollars per month.
Bizagi's pricing is very aggressive, and it was one of the reasons we chose it.
 

Valuable Features

Automation Anywhere excels with user-friendly interfaces, AI tools, and cloud support, enhancing efficiency and productivity for non-technical users.
Bizagi offers an intuitive interface, robust automation, strong integration, and low-code environment, enhancing process management and visualization.
I can set it up to provide users with a form to fill in all required information, and then the bot operates based on those specifications.
For example, the email module has been enhanced over the years to support all the latest authentication technologies. That is very important as we move away from username and password and embrace multi-factor authentication.
Automation Anywhere has undergone drastic changes over the past five years, transitioning from version 10 to A360, including desktop-based and cloud-based options.
It is open source.
The user interface is very good, making it easy for business people to understand.

Featured Reviews

Vatsal Mehta - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Paparao Nadipineni - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables budget review efficiency with open source advantages and workflow orchestration
Definitely, right now, it is purely open source, and we don't have much community support. If they add a few more capabilities like AIML and DocGen AI, these features would be good. Reporting capabilities can be improved more, and community support should be increased. Otherwise, people cannot onboard that particular technology easily.
