Nadeem K. - PeerSpot reviewer

Automation has freed teams from repetitive finance and supply tasks and supports global operations
In the current organization, we had trouble initially because I think the documentation and support could be better than what it is now. This is one difference between Automation Anywhere and other RPA tools such as UiPath. In UiPath, if you have an issue, you go to the UiPath website and search for it, and you get lots of help materials. In Automation Anywhere, you do not get exactly what you are looking for. You get a very large number of results when you search for something, and from this large result set, you have to filter out what you need, or only partial information will be available. User handbooks are available for each product. In that regard, I would say Automation Anywhere is lagging compared to other RPA tools. It is difficult to get hold of their customer support team. I want to clarify that it is not a matter of us building logic on Automation Anywhere and it failing. When it is a product-related issue, they have to give us support because we only know how to develop within Automation Anywhere. We do not know how to fix Automation Anywhere itself. Whenever we have an issue, trying to get in touch with them always takes three to four business days.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of this solution is the MetaBot, which gives you the power to add many DLLs and customize them for the automation."
"The most valuable feature is IQ Bot, as it allowed us to train it to extract important logistical information from customer PDF documents, irrespective of the format."
"The training and resources for this tool are very good, they are so simple that anyone can easily learn it, and one of the tool values is its ease of use."
"Automation Anywhere has helped us save on both time and cost."
"If you are looking for a fast solution using minimal resources not requiring an advanced programming skill set this is your product."
"I'd say there are new useful features that will definitely help us as we do more development in the near future."
"It is really helpful that this solution is deployed in the cloud."
"I like web automation and SAP application automation."
"The biggest benefit of using the product is identifying the issues, enabling a more flexible working method."
 

Cons

"I am looking forward to seeing writing on Linux in the web and WorkBatch in the next release."
"As a solution, it could have been easier to use than in the current state."
"Technical support is not very good and they sometimes promise what they cannot deliver. They promised us that they would implement multitrigger and according to sources delivery of that functionality is not in their plans."
"Sometimes, the ESX services will stop. We are working with IT to resolve this, as it's not our fault. Automation Anywhere is stopping the service, and during that time, the bot will be stopped. Right now, we are logging into the client machine and restarting/rebooting them, then restarting the services. As some of our processes run at night, we won't know that the service is down since our processes run 24/7. This issue is then escalated to the manager. This is the current challenge that we are facing, and we would like them to improve this."
"The solution could improve the integration with some web applications. It was difficult to manage them."
"I would like it to have AI and ML capabilities."
"Not all data is good quality. This presents a challenge for automation, which is important."
"One day, there will be a message box saying that the application is down or not available on a weekend. The instructions will say read the information and click, "Okay." But a bot doesn't understand the instructions because it is not the IQ system."
"The platform's initial setup process could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are currently negotiating a contract. Depending upon that, we will definitely look at increasing usage."
"The solution is quite expensive. Not every organization can consider this option."
"Annually, we are paying almost one million reais."
"In the Indian market, I feel that for mid-size companies, such as ourselves, that having multiple bots costs a lot. If Automation Anywhere wants to expand in the Indian market, they will need to look at their pricing."
"The cost is affordable, which makes an easy barrier to entry for the RPA market."
"We have a few licenses. They cost roughly $10,000 each."
"We would like to use Citrix going forward. We use Bot Runners to scale up, and it gets to be expensive. Using Citrix, it can mitigate costs."
"It looks like it will be right around $115,000, not counting IQ Bot, which we won't renew until later."
