Featured Reviews

Nadeem K.

Rpa Developer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees

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.

Owner/Operator at Informatieewerkplaats

The solution is stable and has good support, but is expensive

Betty Blocks, when I started with it, was similar to a back-end platform with the ability to have a standardized back-office UI out of the box, which is perfect for a lot of situations. For more customer-facing UIs, we had to create the front end ourselves, building endpoints with HTML and JavaScript. Then Betty Blocks started in 2018 with the page builder. This allowed us to create drag-and-drop interfaces. That was quite cumbersome. Now Betty Blocks is entering a new generation of it - next generation forms - which should be a lot better. The most valuable feature is the back end. The way we can create action flows for things such as sending emails, creating PDF reports, or connecting to web services is very complete. I never experience a lack of functionality in it. The standardized back-office UI is said to be deprecated over time, which is a shame, because it is a real time-saver and is one of their strong points, only if it was kept up-to-date.

Hemanthreddy Vakiti

Data Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Structured workflows have improved SLA compliance and now support prioritized incident handling

I think the licensing and pricing of ServiceNow is quite expensive compared to other tools. For large organizations, it is acceptable, but specifically for small and medium organizations to track incidents or change requests, ServiceNow is quite expensive. Sometimes performance can be slow when workflows and integrations are configured for complex tasks. For advanced customizations or advanced features which we rarely use, the documentation is not up to standard. The documentation needs to be improved for advanced customization features. However, the platform is stable overall and the features are quite good. The user experience and performance concerns I mentioned are areas I want to be improved. When many workflows and interactions are configured, performance is slow. For the features it is providing, it is quite expensive. If these performance features are improved, we can easily pay that price and get the return on investment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"With Agentic capability, you can actually do those things; it has memory, it has access to tools, and it can do the job on our behalf as opposed to just telling us what to do."

"Automation Anywhere has a drag-and-drop feature eliminating the need for extensive coding."

"Bot creation is a cool feature. It allows the developer to do complex things."

"There are a lot of savings in terms of effort and time as well as costs."

"It is easy to use. It helps to reduce your man-hours and manual effort."

"Overall, it is very helpful, and Automation Anywhere has helped us achieve our automation goals by reducing manual effort, improving consistency, and making repetitive processes easier to scale."

"I strongly recommend Automation Anywhere as a compelling platform for RPA needs."

"The most valuable feature is recording in the Control Room, as it allows me to chose what I want to have recorded, ensuring that I get the right thing on time."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The most valuable feature is the back end."

"All these components are separately tuneable, which makes it a very strong platform, and we believe that this should be considered in the enterprise market."

"ServiceNow helped us, plus added value of workflow."

"ServiceNow provides quite good insights about what is happening in the organization."

"I have found many features that are important and that are easier when compared to Remedy; for example, the Scripted REST APIs and the Flow Designer... The Client scripts are simpler when you compare with Remedy."

"In financial management, this platform has the infrastructure allowing us to expand the way we want to. For example, it gives you many business rules and budget models that you can use to optimize your workflow. It does not put you in a box. Additionally, integrating this solution with other platforms is extremely easy to do."

"If you can afford it, this is the premium Service Management suite out there."

"If you stick to the out-of-the-box solution, it's an easy setup."

"If a company is looking for more accessibility, a user friendly environment where they want to explore other functionalities like HR and CSM, then ServiceNow provides that."

"ServiceNow has helped improve our organization by making it more efficient, freeing up 30% of our human resources that can be utilized on other tasks, and the solution has added value to the company."

More ServiceNow pros

Cons

"When dealing with a large number of variables, uploading them directly from an Excel sheet to Automation Anywhere is not supported."

"I suggest increasing assistance from support personnel."

"On the cognitive side, some of their competitors, when we were originally shopping, were a little more advanced in that space. Making use of probabilistic outcomes and presenting them to a business user is a feature that, at the time of our evaluation, did not feel like a strong, mature solution for Automation Anywhere. Nevertheless, they won our business. That is one feature where I feel they are trying to make investments to address those gaps."

"Automation tools have a lot of dependency on the environment, particularly on machines. Reducing this dependency could increase success."

"I struggled with understanding the use of different variables during my initial time with Automation Anywhere."

"Extracting customer addresses from Google that are not in a standard URL format is a challenge for Automation Anywhere."

"The stability of this solution depends on the processes, but I think that there is room for improvement in this regard."

"To improve the product, one aspect that Automation Anywhere can work on is archiving legacy data effectively. Currently, data older than current versions remains on the server, slowing the system down."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"In many cases, they make choices where flexibility is a little bit degraded, but if you leave everything open and the flexibility is great then the usability is a little bit less."

"I would like to see full integration with AI."

"What I find lacking in the software is its ability to query the database."

"Discovery is not immediate, and there is a lag."

"Lots of customizations can lead to breaking the system when moving to another release. This should be managed better by ServiceNow."

"Technical support could be better. We are not satisfied with the level of support they offer."

"Their licensing cost is significant. The pricing is high."

"On the flip side, until very recently the overall UX experience was very poor as everything is either based on a form or a list."

"It's a great platform, but there's still room for improvement. As the solutions stands now, you do need a lot of previous experience to use it. It would be great if they could develop some use case templates. This would be beneficial for a small and medium-sized businesses."

"Some of the issues that my team has run into are that something one day works completely fine, the next day it does not."

"From a configuration/discovery perspective, how you map your infrastructure and the relationship — that could be improved in a sense to make it simpler."

More ServiceNow cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It saves on the quality of work, because the quality can be bad when somebody's doing it. If a bot does the work, it's faster and comes with good quality. These are two important things along with the cost saving in the long run. That's where the value is."

"We have seen about a 10 percent monetary savings."

"It's a bit expensive compared to other RPA tools on the market."

"The pricing is reasonable and one can achieve ROI faster when compared to other tools."

"It is one of the most affordable RPA solutions, and as for licensing, they offer a community edition that greatly helps anyone who aspires to learn about the product before buying the enterprise solution."

"Automation Anywhere is competitive... Pega is somewhat comparable, but Pega also requires a lot more infrastructure and a lot more experience to get up and running."

"The pricing and licensing of Automation Anywhere plays an important rule in the Indian market because in the Indian market $10,000 USD is too much. Hence, the pricing tends to go down depending on the customer relationship with the partner: A starter pack is $10,000 and an enterprise pack is $100,000. If you go through an implementation partner, you can get good deals. They can save some money."

"We are not receiving the right information about their features, e.g. Automation Anywhere University, or anything that they are selling. They need to improve their documentation."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"The pricing is quite high, but the pricing is also not very transparent."

"The pricing structure that we have been working with was based on a number of blocks."

"ServiceNow pricing is an art, not a science. The deal depends on how commercially savvy you are, which does make it something that is quite difficult to get right. It is most definitely an opportunity area for ServiceNow to improve and have more visibility around pricing of the different products within the platform."

"Certainly, from a product-platform perspective, the price is not too bad."

"ServiceNow's pricing is comparatively higher than Helix's."

"The price is okay for us. It's reasonable."

"The setup cost is high compared to others, especially when the scope is not fixed."

"I would say it is moderately expensive, ranging from six to seven on a scale of ten."

"Some time ago it was expensive, but large companies have special contracts. It's enterprise prices, and we're talking about millions per year."

"$230 per user."
