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.

Impressive flexibility and support enhance integration and performance
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. The tool is very robust and, being a pioneer in the sector, it is also very stable, particularly in finance where many companies rely on Blue Prism for its reliability and security standards. From a developer perspective, I find developing on Blue Prism simple, clean, and intuitive, making maintenance considerably easier compared to other tools. These AI features have helped in developing scalable and flexible solutions for my customers, as I worked on use cases that involved natural language processing to turn free text into structured data, enabling automation of previously unautomatable tasks. Additionally, I processed voice feedback for sentiment analysis and information extraction, making interactions more intuitive and voice-driven for customers.

With an easy initial setup phase in place, the tool needs to provide functionalities like web scraping to users
It is a very scalable solution. In ElectroNeek, you can build your project in modular programming or with the use of sub-programs. You can have a lot of sub-programs that make up a whole project. If you don't wanna use the drag-and-drop activities, you can use JavaScript or Python instead. So it's very useful when you are working with things such as SPS. Actually, you can write scripts to support all the product functionalities with Python and manage the product's functions. You will find a company named Apollo Studios on the website of ElectroNeek. I think they are one of the best companies in South Africa that entered into a partnership with ElectroNeek.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"When we compare other projects on other platforms versus Automation Anywhere, the technical support we are receiving in terms of efficiency, and even that they are giving us good price, this is what we are looking for."
"The support team responds quickly."
"Automation Anywhere is quite easy to use for users who are not technical, especially business users."
"It has helped us look at how our processes are organized."
"The most valuable feature is the power of AI Technologies involved in Automation Anywhere's IQBot - such as Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision, Fuzzy Logic, and Machine Learning."
"On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Automation Anywhere a nine."
"It is easy to use. It helps to reduce your man-hours and manual effort."
"I'd say there are new useful features that will definitely help us as we do more development in the near future."
"It has a centrally managed infrastructure, and it is secure. Our client was using it because of its ease of use. They had already identified some workflows that were trained on Blue Prism RPAs. It was much more convenient for them to preselect Blue Prism as compared to other vendors."
"The entire tool is valuable because it is an enterprise tool. It is on par with other tools like Automation Anywhere or UiPath with the OCR/ICR facilities, analytics, and the entire package for enterprise-level security. It has the highest level of security as compared to any other tool."
"This solution has helped us become more efficient, as we have been able to automate certain processes, up to 85% of the work in some claims processing areas."
"It offers assessments by way of a robotics or automation readiness assessment tool, which was quite helpful."
"We like the reliability and robustness of Blue Prism."
"I use the basic features that are very useful."
"As a developer, I liked the layout and UI, specifically referring to testing. I was able to watch the process through stages."
"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."
"I would advise others to go for it and just implement it; it is a really good solution."
"We find the OCR feature very valuable, due to the corrector recognition that it provides; this is very useful for document processing."
"The solution is user-friendly with a really good UI and ID."
"The most valuable feature is the price."
"We have found that it brings more efficiency and effectiveness to routine tasks."
"It's a very stable product."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The cost is the best thing about ElectroNeek."
 

Cons

"There are a few features that we would love to have: running on the cloud, running on Linux, out of the box integration availability with larger ecosystems like Salesforce, Workday, or Microsoft."
"Their Community Edition is awful. Every second day, it will fail. It will become corrupt."
"When I change the name of a variable in the Variable Manager, I would really like it to change in the code."
"We have still not explored Automation Anywhere to its full potential, so I will restrict myself from commenting on improvement areas at this time."
"On the user side, we have seen issues with user training."
"The bot creation process is tedious. The solution has a lot of features, but since you have to drag down a lot of the commands, it can get tedious to use it. You end up having to use the mouse a lot more."
"From an ease of use point of view, on a scale of one to ten with ten being really easy, I would rate the tool a six."
"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 the interface of Blue Prism refreshed."
"The recording of the transaction is missing in this solution."
"Security could be improved."
"There are some new tools on the market that work better than Blue Prism. When Blue Prism receives information I have found other RPA solutions refresh the application better. At this moment it's not the best application."
"One thing I definitely did not like about Blue Prism was the challenge regarding unstructured data related to some applications or some PDFs."
"If you are looking into processing invoices then Blue Prism is not the tool that I would choose because the others have better OCR capabilities."
"Blue Prism needs to work in a web-based account. I think that the Blue Prism will need to have the main features be web-based so that you can control the box in a web-based environment and not in a client's environment."
"People find it difficult to get L1 and L2 support. They're pretty weak at L1 and L2 support, so you have to have your own people for that."
"Its price could definitely be lower."
"The solution works well with Google Chrome, but not with Microsoft Edge, which is the browser we use for automation."
"The pricing is an area with a shortcoming, and from an improvement perspective, it needs to be made cheaper."
"I think that this solution could improve remote desktop interactions."
"When I wanted to use web scraping for tables in web applications, I found through online forums that such functionality or activity is currently not working as it shows."
"The solution needs to improve its stability."
"ElectroNeek comes with three activities and we cannot add activities like we can with uiPADs."
"It's not applicable to very large enterprises and for difficult work or more complex processes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They give us a good deal on the licensing because we bundle and customize things. If you ask to get a bulk business deal, you will receive more benefit. If you take other products from the suite, like IQ Bot, you can also receive a deal on the licensing."
"There are a lot of savings in terms of effort and time as well as costs. Automation Anywhere automates a lot of processes. It allows an organization to save the efforts of a lot people. It saves a lot of time because people can't work a whole day (24/7), but Automation Anywhere bots can."
"I advise others that even as of right now, the setup cost and licensing cost to automate bots on Automation Anywhere is steep but it is worth the investment!"
"There is an annual subscription for Automation Anywhere."
"It is reasonable, but it can always be a little bit cheaper."
"The control room access gives the ability to create different roles, which helps when purchasing additional licensing."
"In terms of pricing, it's not at all cheap, and that's a concern. The licensing cost is very high. While I don't know the exact prices of other tools, Microsoft offers the lowest pricing for its RPA platform compared to UiPath and Automation Anywhere."
"I've seen the price vary by whether the client is going to scale and adopt a tool."
"We have a three-year contract that is paid on a yearly basis."
"The billing is on a yearly basis. They send us the bill every year. My business unit is billed by the technology team, so I don't know exactly how much they pay. In my business unit, we have our first-year license costs, and then we have our ongoing costs. Our bots cost projected per license is $8,600. Our projected support cost for every year is about $38,000. Our operation agent costs anywhere between $50,000 to $55,000, so the saving is there, but it is still kind of expensive for us, but I'm looking at it from the technology kind of billing us for it. This is the cost that we have for our technology team, which is different from the licensing of Blue Prism."
"The licensing is approximately $1,100."
"Our licensing fees are approximately $5,000 USD per year."
"I chose Blue Prism because it is priced well. The pricing was right for me at that moment even though Automation Anywhere is better in other aspects."
"Blue Prism is an expensive solution, especially in Southeast Asia, while in Europe and the UK, it can be considered moderate in terms of cost."
"Other than your infrastructure, in terms of servers that you have to set up, I don't think that there are any costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"Blue Prism is a bit higher priced compared to other payment-related or investment-related solutions. At the same time, it also provides more security than those solutions, specifically for the banking and insurance sectors."
"I believe we had a Silver Membership or something similar annually."
"I give the price an eight out of ten."
"It's very affordable and the licensing is billed on a yearly basis."
"Its price could definitely be lower. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost to the standard licensing fees."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a seven."
"My company has made a payment towards the purchase of a license from ElectorNeek."
