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.

Directly integrates with AWS, interface functions are great and it's all in one package

I like that Honeycode directly integrates with AWS as it reduced the friction in setting up the back end. When I started working with Honeycode, I didn't have the resources to set up a server and go internally within the company so it was helpful to be able to create an account, start coding, and get the job done. The interface functions are great. Everything I needed to do was in one package. It's invaluable for small companies that are starting out and don't have a huge amount of resources.

Low-code workflows have transformed how we automate processes and build enterprise apps

First and foremost, ServiceNow Now Platform allows us to do a low-code or no-code platform, which is the wonderful first feature. On top of that, if you want to do some customization along with the low-code and no-code, you can do it. Beyond that, if you write a full-fledged customized code and make your functionality, you can do it. Workflow is there, and we can automate our workflows. Flow is there as an option. Apart from workflow and flow, we have many business rules and script includes. These are all the technical components and features of ServiceNow Now Platform that allow us to achieve our objective. ServiceNow Now Platform offers a very easy feature that we call workflow or flow. Using workflow or flow, we can customize industry workflows. The development on that flow is very simple, and you can use drag and drop functionality. If you want to do some scripting, you can do it. This is an awesome feature of ServiceNow Now Platform that allows us to develop or automate any flow in quick time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The MetaBot is a very good feature that allows me to do things that were not available in earlier versions."

"The solution has removed humans making errors while increasing our time savings, and we now have a lot more efficiencies in our process."

"Automation Anywhere has helped us in many ways and is one of the best RPA tools."

"Automation Anywhere is one of the leading RPA tool vendors and they have done splendid work on improving their tool."

"Our workforce has limited capacity, and by adding this solution we can increase the amount of work coming in without adding to our workforce."

"Automation Anywhere is very easy to handle because it is a low-code platform, so anyone can learn very quickly."

"In finance, it has helped us deliver on productivity and provided us with FTE savings."

"The best feature is the drag-and-drop command. Users with less coding knowledge can also automate their end-to-end processes very easily."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"Great having everything in one package; invaluable for companies without huge resources."

"ServiceNow is highly scalable from a customization point of view, allowing for the building of portals, adding and configuring widgets, and designing workflows as preferred."

"ServiceNow Now Platform is clearly more futuristic and much better to integrate with all other applications."

"ServiceNow Now Platform has one thing that no other tool offers, which is the dataset, specifically the management of the dataset."

"The solution is fast enough for our workflow automations and has integration capability. It aligns with many use cases in our organization and for others we have planned."

"Now Platform's best features are collaboration, configurability, and customizability."

"The simplicity is great, and based on my experience with other solutions in the market, the most important is the simplicity of implementing all the features that we have in ServiceNow and helping customers to simplify the work process in the daily journeys that they have."

"ServiceNow is a vast application, but thankfully there are a variety of different solutions that can be easily adopted and managed according to your particular organizational structure."

"I would recommend this product to businesses who are using multiple systems across different departments, and are looking for a single point to operate them from."

More ServiceNow Now Platform pros

Cons

"Automation Anywhere can be improved in certain areas specified in the cognitive zone where the information needs better OCR Engine + Machine Learning capabilities. Also, they can improve on the System Identified region function of the IQ Bot - Our team faced a tough time in handling that as we were not able to assign variable to System Identified Region as the IQ Bot tool wasn't allowing it."

"I would like to see a lot around API integration going forward, like the ability for other systems to talk to the AI better by opening it up. I would like to see more chatbots or anything in the journey of making it truly immersive for human workers working with these bots."

"We have a lot of use cases that depend on certain Java applets, and currently we're not able to leverage the Object Cloning that would speed up our automation designing. So we have to revert to more image recognition-type of designing, and it just takes a long time to get that bot built."

"Although, IQ Bot has data being extracted from it. It can improve with more features, like handwritten copies that are readable."

"To achieve a perfect ten, I would want to see new features working as expected and further advancements in automation."

"The platform has good capabilities, but it could improve by providing more development options."

"As a developer or user, I feel that the performance of the overall package could be made a little better or reliable."

"The initial setup was complex because we had to make sure all the security aspects were approved by our leadership."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"It's not possible to significantly differentiate some of the UI elements."

"What I didn't like in the ServiceNow Now Platform is testing, particularly with Visual Studio. It had a bad integration with Visual Studio because you can't compile and run it from there. You have to debug on your own and then find out where the error is through test scripts. The testing component in the ServiceNow Now Platform isn't that great. What I'd like to see in the next version of the ServiceNow Now Platform is an improvement in testing and writing scripts, and if there was a feature to just run it from the modules, then that would be great, instead of finding the error manually and checking where it is."

"The basic reporting system is rather static."

"ServiceNow is not open source, so there is a license you must pay. As for how much it costs, what I have observed is that it often depends on your subscriptions. Suppose that you go with some subscriptions such as IDSM or any type of package like it, then the license cost will be impacted accordingly. Similarly, the cost is also adjusted based on your headcount of how many users will be using it."

"The tool has a lot of limitations."

"The licensing for this solution, with respect to the user, needs to be improved."

"ServiceNow Now Platform's automation process needs improvement."

"We would like to see AI used to automate some of the functionality in this solution."

"ServiceNow Now Platform wants AI embedded in the product to make it more powerful. Generative AI that will be a part of ServiceNow Now Platform is an area of concern where improvements are required."

More ServiceNow Now Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The initial setup and licensing fees are high, and although it saves costs in the long run, reaching the break-even point can take at least six months."

"Pricing is affordable and I would recommend beginning with the Starter Package."

"It is fantastic. It has been great. It is perfectly priced for the quality received. When paying for quality, that is exactly what you get."

"We're on a license package with Automation Anywhere (AA), paid yearly. What would be better is for them to have different packages for different types of organization."

"We generally follow the Gain-Sharing Pricing model, which enables the customer to start getting the RPA benefits right from day one of their implementation."

"It's fine. However, I'm concerned with the credits in terms of the pricing for the AI models. It is understandable that the new ones are more expensive, but the base models, after doing the pricing conversion, cost about four to ten times as much as paying directly."

"Including the AWS setup and everything per license, it costs us around $10,000 on an annual basis. I believe that is pretty reasonable considering the teams that we have."

"Whatever investment, licensing, and resource costs together are put in for development and delivery, we are still at an ROI of 250 percent."

Information not available

"I don't have much exposure to the costs attached to the solution. I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is the lowest price, and ten is the highest price since it is a costly tool."

"The price of the product falls on the higher side of the spectrum."

"Price-wise, I would describe the product's cost to be more than the average, but it compensates for that with the functionalities that it provides."

"The solution is expensive, and I rate it a ten for pricing."

"The pricing of this solution is done annually and it is very expensive."

"There are extra expenses for maintaining the product apart from the licenses."

"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being very expensive solution."

"It's expensive and if you need some analytical views of your activity, there is an additional cost."
