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.

Automation and AI integration enhance performance and user experience

The improvements or enhancements I would like to see in Blue Prism Cloud revolve around further developing server-client architecture, focusing on centralized control for remote agents. I believe more capabilities in that area could be beneficial. At the moment, I don't recall any specific features or functionalities missing from Blue Prism Cloud that come to mind. In terms of complexity, I find that Blue Prism Cloud is somewhat straightforward to use. Flexibility-wise, it engages well with Microsoft-based technologies. However, there are challenges with OCR capabilities that remain an issue. While there are readily available features that work well, the effectiveness does depend significantly on the type of use case I am implementing.

Stable with good cross-integration between modules, but the training needs to be improved

We mainly use UiPath as our RPA platform. I have looked at several other solutions that include the bigger ones, Blue Prism, and Automation Anywhere. We have experience in developing bots in all three of these. It is difficult to move from UiPath to EdgeVerve when UiPath is so good at getting people in the door. They've got a great ecosystem and a great training model. Every other system is more challenging to use. To get an EdgeVerve license, for example, you need to have an NDA in place to use it. Blue Prism is even worse, although, with them, you just have to pay more money. By not democratizing the software and the way to utilize it, smaller companies like EdgeVerve and even Blue Prism, to a certain extent, have suffered in terms of growth. The three leaders at the top do a pretty good job. Outside of workflow, they do a pretty good job, and that's why the customers buy, so you have to be strong on those. As far as the tools are concerned, RPA is RPA, and everybody generally does it in the same way. What is probably going to start distinguishing between products is the use of AI. When AI really overtakes the selectors for RDA, robotic desktop automation, when you have to really rely on the backdrop of the DOM to get at the element, the use of AI and more efficient on-prem AI solutions is going to really make that a better experience. The on-premises distinction is important because there's latency when you hit the cloud. Ultimately, to me, the toolsets are all the same. Drag and drop, the ability to create custom activities in terms of creating your libraries, and that kind of thing, they're all there. This past year has been ridiculous in terms of how all of the tools have progressed. What they were a year ago versus what they are today, is a considerable and significant difference. For example, I have totally redesigned my solutions and architectures over the past year.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It increased productivity; it raised the productivity percentage of individuals 20 to 35%, and we also saw cost reduction."

"With the cash flow generated just on the one bot we had operating, it's paid for itself in the first month."

"One of the most valuable features is the error handler, as this command has helped me design bots that can handle multiple errors and exceptions."

"The MetaBots are by far the most effective system within AA. Due to the fact that no scripting is required and only the passing of variables or values to get a definite result. IQ Bot with the ABBY OCR is a powerful component to do multiple extractions in the shortest possible timeframe in comparison to human execution of similarly identified tasks or operations."

"Since it has capabilities to integrate with third-party applications easily, it makes the life of an automation engineer very easy."

"Automation Anywhere's document automation, powered by IQ Bots and now enhanced with AI, stands out as a particularly valuable feature."

"The Automation Anywhere University is a good tool. It goes topic-by-topic with real-time examples."

"Automation Anywhere has helped our organization to save human efforts on mundane tasks and shifted it to more analytical and interesting tasks."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The technical support team of Blue Prism Cloud is very good...I rate the support a ten out of ten."

"Last year that Blue Prism introduced a community version, and have really opened up their services."

"The product itself is quite mature."

"It is more secure for complex implementations."

"This product is quite scalable."

"We can save on staff costs by automating processes."

"Blue Prism offers the whole package for LPR developers; it's a useful tool to automate anything, and as an LPR developer, I think the most important feature is that it lets you get anything into blocks of code that you can use anywhere."

"The most valuable feature is the customizability."

More Blue Prism Cloud pros

"EdgeVerve is a bit like Appian, where they have full suites that have a great deal of functionality."

"I would say that the cross-integration between different modules, such as between the OCR, RPA, and ML, is the most valuable feature."

Cons

"My experience has been that if the person who codes the bot is not very well-trained, then they might create unstable bots. So, it's not the platform. It is just how somebody has coded the bots which can bring lot of instability to them. I recommend that when you are using a coder that the person well-trained and have a good amount of experience already working on bots. They shouldn't be newbie or beginner who comes in to code because that will impact the quality of the code itself."

"Automation Anywhere has newly integrated the Generative AI feature. It should be more customizable. Currently, we can change certain parameters, but we would like to have the ability to do modifications within the LLM for better outputs."

"Object cloning is a component of the solution that seems to be unstable, as it apparently stops working for no reason."

"Instead of depending on other open-source BPM products, AA should provide their own BPM for attended automations."

"Some things that I do not see as of today are interactive chat or video interface."

"Queue management is still missing from the latest version which is a barrier to using the platform to start implementing complex cases where you have parent and child transactions going through multiple stages."

"Their license model needs to be improved. The biggest issue for me is that the license is tied to a person, and it is not something that I can pass if I want to use it for the first five hours and pass it on to you for the next five hours and so on. When we automate, the license is tied to me, and if you or somebody else needs to use that license, as a COE administrator, I need to transfer the license from person A to person B. This is something that I have always told them that should not be this way because you want to utilize your licenses effectively."

"SMTP mail features should come with migration options. All kind of VB scripts and Java scripts which we built using exiting version should support in this version."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"I personally would like the solution to be supporting more languages."

"The area for improvement in Blue Prism Cloud is the support component. Whenever I reach out to the Blue Prism community, they consistently request knowledge sessions for everything, whether it is an advanced feature or not."

"Blue Prism Cloud needs to improve its AI capabilities."

"I wouldn't call Blue Prism user-friendly. It's one of its downfalls."

"There's a need to deal with unstructured input with RPA."

"Edge browser extensions could be made slightly more resilient. It would be nice if they could package new libraries for end users rather than have them search for libraries."

"The pricing was a bit high, from what I understand. That might have played a role in the decision to migrate to another solution."

"Lacking advance features like CIO and optical character recognition"

More Blue Prism Cloud cons

"Better training and better accessibility of the tools are the things that need to be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"One of the key features that we chose, the bot as a service or the BotFarm, when they launched version 11.3, they decided not to have the BotFarm anymore. This put us in a situation because we expected to have bots on demand, just like our cloud software. This would have been cost efficient for us to use. We hope to see this again being realized with A2019. I hope the scalability from an on demand basis improves."

"The cost is anywhere between $10,000 and $100,000."

"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."

"Our annual licensing costs are around $100,000 a year."

"I've seen the price vary by whether the client is going to scale and adopt a tool."

"We save approximately 10,000 hours per year."

"We have seen ROI in terms of cost and time with a couple of our projects."

"The Automation Anywhere license is affordable and not complex."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"We pay about $15,000 per quarter in licensing costs. We don't have to pay for any other extra costs. There isn't, for example, an extra cost for technical support. We just pay the licensing."

"Pricing can be negotiated in situations where there will be heavy usage."

"There are many RPA solutions available from different vendors and the pricing for Blue Prism is competitive."

"We found the pricing reasonable, and it aligned with our budgetary requirements."

"Blue Prism Cloud’s pricing is fine for commercial usage."

"The licensing of the solution is on a subscription-based model and costs around 4,999 for one bot's license. If someone wants to increase the number of bots you want from Blue Prism, then they provide a discount."

"The price is very competitive when you are comparing to other providers."

"Though I don't have many details, I think Blue Prism Cloud is an expensive product compared to the other tools in the market since you need to pay for resources like machines."
