Venkat Sivaprakash

Management Consultant at Accenture

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.

Cloud & AI Architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

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.

Operations Manager at Genpact

Gave a better output every time, reduced our touch time by 80%, and had a robust reporting mechanism to improve the process

We tested HyperScience on structured formats of the forms, and it worked really well. We tested it with semi-structured formats, and it worked well. We also tested creating a new form that does not have any format. HyperScience has less capability while working on unstructured forms. Unstructured forms are those where there is no standard structure and the information can be anywhere on the form. They need to develop this capability. Such a capability would make it a perfect system for processes like data entry, accounts tables, etc. Secondly, before putting the actual volume in the tool, I believe that we have to create a manual form every time. If the procedure of creating the forms can be shortened or automated, it would help. It would reduce the manual effort of creating a form every time you start working on it. There should be an automated form creation system that does not require any manual intervention. Whenever a new form comes, the system should be able to create a dummy form for that. That will help.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There are more valuable features with the updated solution; now they have both the list view and the flow view, they have increased some features in terms of data types, they now have good usage of the data table and have added variable types, and it's convenient."

"Our experience with technical support at Automation Anywhere has been great. They have been very helpful, especially during the PoC, processes which are sort of early on in their sales cycle, or when we were just starting with Automation Anywhere a couple of years ago. We got great support for getting it onboarded in-house and getting our team up to speed. So, we have found it to be a great partnership."

"No review content was provided."

"Courses on Automation Anywhere University are very easy to learn."

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

"Automation Anywhere has been an integral part of this product's evolution in general. A hindrance that we were faced with was companies who did not have API integrations for Salesforce. This is where RPA and Automation Anywhere came in and helped us with integrating solutions which did not have API integrations within themselves. That's how we've evolved in the past two to three months."

"We can do automation for some complex issues."

"The most valuable feature is the back-end process automation."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"Blue Prism Cloud is a stable solution."

"There is no latency in the product."

"The solution is very complete. It's a good solution, for the kind of features that they offer."

"The reusability of the solution is excellent. It's a superior feature - far superior to any other tool on the market."

"UiPath is also user-friendly."

"This product is quite scalable."

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

"Blue Prism is a server-based product that is a more mature and stable product compared to what we were using earlier."

More Blue Prism Cloud pros

"HyperScience is good for structured and semi-structured document extraction and it's easy to learn."

"For our use case, it provided a complete workflow, reduced our existing touch time by 80%, and from the point of view of technology, it is one of the leading platforms right now in the OCR world."

"Valuable features include tools like IQ Bot and the ability to extract handwritten documents with 93-95 per cent accuracy, which can be improved using ML technology."

"We have seen pretty good accuracy."

"What I liked more about HyperScience was the quality of the OCR it is a lot better compared to Google."

"Has algorithms that can detect a document template even if the image has a lot of distortions."

"One of the most valuable features of HyperScience is the user-training module. Whenever the extraction takes place, based on the way we have trained HyperScience, it would give us some success status or a certain confidence level. If the solution has processed something that it determined was not extracted correctly it will queue those items for manual review."

"If accuracy and customer satisfaction are your goals, then you should go for this solution."

More HyperScience pros

Cons

"Automation Anywhere needs to improve the startup time, as it tends to lag at the beginning of the day."

"I would wish for a greater focus on citizen development, which is a priority for our company."

"I would like to see improvement in its scalability."

"With the automation copilot, if I have any internal tool or application and I want to pass on variables, I don't have it. Maybe the team can work on it to make it more efficient to make it work better across all automations."

"I would like to see a technology where they can automatically update or upgrade themselves to the latest version, without having to uninstall the current bot."

"I would definitely say Citrix automation is one area we have continued to struggle with for the last two months."

"In a cost-sensitive industry like banking, where automation needs to prove clear ROI, a more flexible pricing structure would assist organizations in expanding automation more aggressively without feeling constrained by budget considerations."

"Many of our clients would want to see scalability in pricing, and while I could say cheaper, that's part of it."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"The product could be improved by including advance features like OCR - optical character recognition - which are currently not native to the product."

"The version control could be improved and made consistent. There is a discrepancy between the versions on premise and the cloud versions."

"There is room for improvement in the speed."

"There are a few smart services that are not available in Blue Prism. For example, Excel sheets that are converted into a CS sheet have limitations with the number of columns when imported. This could be improved."

"The issue is that it is not dynamic or intelligent."

"I would like to see a web-based control room, rather than the one that is in-built with the desktop version."

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

"I do not like the web-based support model they have."

More Blue Prism Cloud cons

"HyperScience has less capability while working on unstructured forms. Unstructured forms are those where there is no standard structure and the information can be anywhere on the form. They need to develop this capability."

"One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle."

"The solution is expensive."

"Extracting tables from certain documents could be improved."

"No solution is perfect and there are several different scenarios that could be improved in HyperScience. One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle. There is some issue with supporting the extraction from multiple tables involved on the same form. If this could improve, it would be a big benefit."

"They could work on the price and make it a bit more reasonable."

"The product's usability could be better."

"HyperScience could improve the unstructured data extraction feature."

More HyperScience cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is affordable, which makes an easy barrier to entry for the RPA market."

"We have purchased licenses, but are trying to obtain more bot programmer licenses."

"They recently launched a Community Edition, which is okay, but they should have done this a long time ago."

"Costs savings have been seen by employing bots for multiple shifts instead of people."

"Automation Anywhere falls within a mid-range price point when compared to other RPA tools on the market."

"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."

"They are already coming out with a community license, which is really good. That's something that I wish to have."

"The licensing fees are approximately $10,000 USD for between five and ten users."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"When compared with UiPath, I believe it will be difficult for Blue Prism to maintain its market share."

"The default configuration does not include large-scale log injection, but if you require, such integration, it may incur additional costs per gigabyte. I don't have the exact pricing information for log injection, but it is possible that it varies depending on the volume of data. While there may be a basic service included, additional features might come at an extra cost. When working with cloud environments like VMs, calculating costs involves considering factors such as usage duration, network traffic, inbound and outbound data transfer, as well as network access control. The pricing structure for cloud coverage solutions follows a similar pattern, although specific pricing details would need to be obtained separately."

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

"Blue Prism Cloud's cost is very high."

"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."

"It is highly-priced."

"Blue Prism comes at a higher price point compared to other solutions on the market."

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

More Blue Prism Cloud pricing and cost advice

"I don't have any idea about the licensing costs, but I know that there was a per-page charge. They had different models of pricing. One of them was based on the minimum number of pages, and we had a fixed price. So, the price model depends on the volume that is coming through HyperScience."

"I think HyperScience is cheaper when compared to other tools. They also have a lifetime licensing option."
