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.

Automation has delivered secure banking workflows and handles complex client applications efficiently

If we are talking about how Blue Prism has impacted the accuracy and speed of data processing in my tasks compared to UiPath, it is better than UiPath. There is no doubt about it. I will definitely recommend Blue Prism to other users and companies because, as I mentioned, when comparing UiPath and Blue Prism, I find that UiPath offers multiple online training opportunities. Compared to Blue Prism, I see that all the training materials, small videos, and diplomas are more readily available in UiPath, but I do not think everything is as accessible in Blue Prism. My overall rating for Blue Prism is ten out of ten because I worked almost five years in Blue Prism and my experience has been good.

Senior Director at a tech services company with 51-200 employees

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

"IQ Bot is the most important feature and it has been extensively used by our clients."

"Web-based control is the most valuable feature. We can access it from anywhere in the world with the control room URL and in any browser. Bot Insights make our report generation and other insights view easier. We can export the data in the form of CSV, PDF, etc."

"The bot creation process is easy, manageable, and everything is well-organized for a developer. Everything is centralized."

"Document Automation has had a significant impact on efficiency and productivity for us."

"In my case in particular, I come from a business background, not an IT background. So, it sort of speaks for itself that I was able to pickup its functionality and how it works. In the space of two years time, I've gone from a junior developer to a senior specialist. So, it really speaks for itself in terms of being user-friendly."

"The built-in features, such as the connector builder and AI development tools, are easily accessible, keeping the software up-to-date."

"With the help of these features, we can automatically fetch data from invoices and websites, which is followed by the automated data entry into the webpage and ERP system."

"Automation Anywhere has evolved significantly and upgraded itself to provide agentic AI and AI-based automation solutions for document automation, with modern features to train documents ensuring high accuracy and repeatability over time."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The best feature of Blue Prism that I value the most is the simplicity of their pricing and licensing model, which is easy to understand, and the tool is very robust and stable, particularly in finance where many companies rely on Blue Prism for its reliability and security standards."

"It is a stable solution."

"Being able to create an object and use it for multiple processes has been very useful for us."

"The solution is way more efficient for debugging than other tools."

"We find the stability and the ease of reusing code design valuable."

"You can easily see where all your problems lie, in a visual way. It's always nice to have a visual representation of things... Seeing things at one glance makes a lot of difference, instead of having to read through the fine print and see where the issues are."

"We find all features valuable."

"With Blue Prism, you automate the back-end processes. Blue Prism is more like service-side automation. It is not off-circuit automation. It is more like attended automation."

More Blue Prism 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

"The only reason I wouldn't rate it higher is because a COE Manager still not getting the full benefit from it and because the premium is a little bit expensive."

"Pricing with respect to the competitors is more."

"Sometimes, in Automation Anywhere, the recording process takes longer when capturing tasks on websites or applications, and there can be internal errors."

"I would like to see web and cloud-based platforms for future releases."

"I would like to have the ability to schedule bots by whichever one is available."

"Bots get disconnected from control rooms sometimes without any reason and this takes up a lot of time."

"Currently, Automation Anywhere's debugging functionality is minimal."

"I am currently on 11.3.4.2 and the analytics feature of AA, Bot Insights, needs improvement. It is not easy to implement. It is not intuitive for the developer as you have to mark variables for analytics."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"The activities that we do are a bit difficult to do in Blue Prism as compared to UiPath. UiPath provides create activities and create packages related to AI analytical skills. This is something that Blue Prism doesn't have."

"They should add more OCR engines to it."

"I would like to see the vendor improve the efficiency of Blue Prism interaction with applications."

"With Blue Prism user cannot automate processes on virtual machines or citrix, for that, user need to use surface automation."

"Blue Prism develops its own tools and process automation, but the documentation is unclear and incomplete."

"The setup of Blue Prism is complex."

"They improve more in OCR, to read text more correctly, currently can say OCR in blue prism only works for less cases and is only effective 50%. so mostly OCR's of Blue prism is very less used and other API's or tools are integrated with Blue prism for OCR techniques."

"I would like to see the interface of Blue Prism refreshed."

More Blue Prism cons

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

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is very reasonable."

"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."

"Additional costs will be for the machines and the number of machines that you are using. You can deploy virtually as well as on physical machines. In both the situations, you do need to allocate a certain budget for securing the machines and where the software will be installed and running. The machines cannot be used for anything else, because only a certain bot can run at a certain time. You need to be very particular about your scheduling of running the bots, and while the bot is running nobody can use the machine. You cannot have an agent working on a machine and the bot running in the background. It has to be completely dedicated. Then there are the network bandwidth requirements and space requirements, which are additional costs apart from the licensing and software costs. The developer is also going to charge you for their coding time too."

"We have a few licenses. They cost roughly $10,000 each."

"We only deal in annual licenses. There are no pay-as-you-go licenses."

"On a scale of one to ten with ten being the most expensive, I rate the price of Automation Anywhere an eight out of ten."

"The Community Edition is a good offering from the company."

"I would like them to have better license management."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"I would rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."

"The price is on par with other products in the market."

"In the Philippines, fewer companies are using Blue Prism because of its cost. I don't know the price, but I know that its price is higher than UiPath."

"To use Blue Prism, there is a need to pay INR 15,000 per customer."

"Its pricing is okay. Its price is pretty similar to the price of other tools."

"Blue Prism has a higher cost with respect to RPA enablement, particularly if you are trying to start with RPA."

"We have a three-year contract that is paid on a yearly basis."

"The pricing is really good for an enterprise-level solution. It's quite scalable and it's quite comparable with the market."
