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.

An easy-to-use solution with great integration
It involves a lot of investment. The learning curve is not similar to other products, like K2. Regarding the user interface, I have to access workflows and define and manage the processes on the variant of a Windows application, which is not accessible if you don't have access from the client to install it on the workstation. And most of the solutions we're currently evaluating are web-based. Our customers and developers have complained that the UI is a little bit confusing. It has lots of elements. It's not user-intuitive compared to other products. Other than that, the licensing model is our main concern.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its ease of use is the most valuable feature. It is easy to train developers and find the right people, then use them to build the tool."
"In version 11.3, they have a good security option. Tool-wise, it's pretty good to work on Automation Anywhere. If you compare it to other tools in the industry. It is very user-friendly and easy to develop processes. We liking using it very much."
"IQ Bot is a valuable feature. It processes unstructured data to structured data. It helps me by making tasks less time consuming. It reduces the effort it takes versus manually."
"The most valuable features of this solution are its scalability, security using the credential vault, and ease of use for business."
"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."
"With Automation Anywhere, it has become very easy for us to do invoice billing. It has saved us about 80% of the time."
"We have staff who have been moved out of the mundane tasks and are now doing value-added activities."
"The ROI on major bots has been phenomenal."
"It's very simple to use and the integration features between Java and other services within the workflow are very easy."
 

Cons

"With our current version, we are experiencing issues with the access of the Control Room. Therefore, at the moment, we cannot really scale."
"Especially while using v11, I often experience freezes with OCR extraction from PDF files."
"I am looking forward to seeing writing on Linux in the web and WorkBatch in the next release."
"IQ Bot is pretty good, but we can only run a maximum 150 documents."
"There should be more available Data Analytics and more AI Front and Deep Learn concepts."
"The dashboard has room for improvement."
"Automation Anywhere can include database commands like insert row, bold row, etc commands in 11.x"
"With Automation Anywhere, it took us a bit of time to stand it up initially. We tried to do it in a virtual environment, which caused us a bit of headache. It could have been smoother in this aspect."
"Our customers and developers have complained that the UI is a little bit confusing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere's price is considerably better than UiPath's."
"It's justified because we have saved quite a bit of money at the company and many manual hours. Overall, it justifies the cost."
"It saves me around $100,000 a year."
"It's somewhat pricier than some of the other tools that we've used, and the breakout between the different applications is also somewhat costly. If they can make it a little more cost-effective or bundle packages a little bit more, that would be beneficial."
"The pricing and licensing are definitely moderate to costly but easily recoverable by achieving ROI quickly."
"The pricing is a bit higher."
"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."
"As our team size increases, we may get some more licenses for the tool."
"The price could definitely be lower."
