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.

Platform has unified complex IT workflows and supports deep customization for daily operations

While BMC Helix Platform is highly customizable and powerful, there is always room for enhancement, particularly from a user experience perspective. One area that could be improved is the end-user interface. Simplifying navigation, consolidating options into a single, intuitive view, and ensuring that all related information is easily accessible on one platform would enhance efficiency and reduce potential errors during ticketing or workflow management. From an administrative and backend perspective, streamlining workflows and making backend operations simpler would be valuable. For example, critical actions like closing large change requests could be more flexible and guided, helping administrators manage complex scenarios without switching between multiple consoles. Additionally, improving the search functionality across the platform to make it faster and more intelligent would benefit both end users and administrators. A stronger, more context-aware search mechanism would help quickly locate tickets, assets, or workflow details without navigating through multiple pages. Overall, while the platform’s core capabilities are excellent for ITSM and enterprise process automation, enhancements in the interface, workflow simplification, and search could make it even more user-friendly and efficient, further strengthening its value for organizations of all sizes.

Simple and quick to implement, easy to use, saves us time and money

This is a very flexible system, which is why I chose the platform. It is flexible with respect to our company processes and workflows, and this is something that is very important to us. The system allows us to configure simple forms and flows, and we use it when new employees are hired, when one transfers from one unit to another, or when one leaves the company. These are the main reasons that I use the functionality of the forms. IT Care Center has very much helped to simplify our IT service management. I have an SLA that commits me to 85% with the company. This platform allows me to provide services at almost 92%. It is very useful from this point of view. This product has helped us to reduce the number of IT tickets because after we have worked on a problem and closed the ticket, we send the user information on what steps we took to solve the problem. With the explanation, a user knows how to deal with the problem if it happens again. The reports also help us to reduce the number of tickets that we have. We look to see what the main reasons are for incidents and look at whether the same problem is recurring. This allows us to fix the problem in basic maintenance, and it has been very successful in helping to reduce the number of related tickets. Using this solution has helped us to reduce costs in two ways, both as a result of having fewer tickets. The first is that we have fewer employees; we have reduced our staff from five people to only three. Second, we have reduced the related hardware costs. We do not need to pay for as many PCs or laptops.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"From the customer's perspective, the biggest benefits are automation of the security and monitoring systems."

"Automation Anywhere is the best."

"Automated data processing is the most valuable feature of Automation Anywhere."

"The ability to automate repetetive tasks and processing that should not require human intervention."

"Business analytics provides real-time data that's something other competing companies lack. It uses statistics and graphs to show the performance of the bots which processes are lagging behind and if you need to give priority to certain tasks."

"I am confident that we are saving several million dollars as a result."

"We have saved time and money using the solution."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"BMC Helix Platform helps in digital transformation and internal workflows and processes being adopted from different departments in line of businesses."

"BMC Helix Platform is very customizable, and we can integrate it with any other application via the API."

"The most valuable features of BMC Helix Platform for service delivery include Helix GPT, which uses AI and GPT within the enterprise service management space."

"The BMC Helix Platform is perfect."

"My advice for anybody who is looking into this product is not to think twice."

"All of my staff is quite familiar with the usage and we customize based on our daily needs and based on different profiles. As a manager, I require diagnostics on a weekly or monthly basis. diagnostics. There needs to be some reporting for management and for my customers' management as well. So we created our own template. All of our different staff were required to do their own tagging or own tracking of cases. We create our own templates. I create my own template for my own weekly and monthly reporting to management. It's quite flexible in the sense that we're able to add our own customized views. We are able to easily export all this information into a proper reporting structure."

"We managed to reduce costs by half by switching to IT Care Center, not including any professional services."

"For customer service, IT Care Center has helped us to centralize our daily IT activities in one platform; it has made our operations easier to use, more efficient, reliable, and available."

"Overall, the solution has helped to simplify our IT service management, with fewer calls giving us more time to work without distraction, better efficiency in the IT department, and cost reductions of 33 percent along with a 30 to 35 percent reduction in the time it takes to manage tasks."

"It runs smoothly and all of the components are very easy to work with."

"It also enables us to configure simple forms and flows. The fact that the system is very flexible for adding fields and other forms assists our customer service, as well as myself as the CIO, to easily view my SLAs and KPIs."

"For a user to open a new ticket, it is very simple. That is an important thing. The system is available for users on the main desktop on their computer, so it is very easy to report tickets. It is very clear. Also, we manage the tickets with rules, according to subject and groups, so they are going to the right person in IT."

More IT Care Center pros

Cons

"I would like a couple more features where I can talk and the line comes up automatically."

"Its pricing definitely needs to be more competitive. When licensing costs are high, we cannot use this tool for automation."

"There are occasional technical issues, particularly with cloud operations. Sometimes, the bot struggles to initiate on the cloud, even when everything appears in place."

"We have been looking at processes which can easily transition into a large scale environment, where you can have cloud or hybrid model. However, being a bank, some of our processes are critical and we would like to hold those on-premise. This limits us with our usage of Automation Anywhere."

"Their bot runners could be made to handle multiple payloads at the same time because if I want to run multiple parallel operations, the number of bot runners that I have to buy just keeps increasing. It is adding to the cost. However, there is a possibility that we don't need that many bot runners, and we can run multiple operations in a bot runner. This would be a great addition to have."

"We would like a better coding interface for developers. We would also like to have a user interface which reduces the time to learn the product so more people in the organization can use software, like Automation Anywhere, quickly automating processes."

"The UI could be made better because the UI in Version 11 was better and easier as compared to a2019."

"I have seen that the South American support is not as good as it should be."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"BMC Helix Platform is very customizable, but the user interface is not good; it should be very user-friendly, the options should be very visible, and everything should be on a single platform."

"To improve BMC Helix Platform, they could enhance the mobile experience."

"We faced some stability issues with BMC Helix Platform's cloud version. Services and integration to AD weren't working properly at times."

"The cost of BMC Helix is very high, with an estimation of not less than $100,000 making it difficult for us to adopt the platform fully."

"The UI screens could be a little bit more modern."

"If there is such a feature, it would be very good for us to track how long it takes to resolve issues."

"I would like the solution to have a native application for mobile phones. While I have IT Care Center in my mobile, it is not a pure application, like Outlook or Teams."

"There is no global support. With our previous system, we had 24/7 global support. We need much faster support. When I have an issue and raise a ticket, someone should call me back. They can also think about having object-oriented APEX so that the agents can easily create dashboards instead of having to learn the complete APEX language. This is something very important for us. We are using Oracle APEX for creating certain dashboards with KPIs. This is the visual platform that we use to see all the data, and it is very important for us because we get all the BI and data. Currently, we have a vendor who helps us with that because we don't know how to use it ourselves. We want to use it to make more dashboards with more KPIs for every department, but we cannot because we don't have the knowledge. We are very dependent on the vendor and the time he has for us."

"IT Care Center must improve the UI because it looks old-fashioned all the time."

"There is no such thing as a perfect solution and in the past, I have contacted support to implement new features."

"They should have full integration with SSO services, like Okta, creating a full service solution."

"IT Care Center has some room for improvement in regard to mobile. It doesn't have an application, there is only an adaptable web page, and that is less convenient."

More IT Care Center cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Based on what I've heard, it's costly, but I don't know much about its pricing."

"The cost of Automation Anywhere is high in Turkey due to the weak economy."

"In the Indian market, I feel that for mid-size companies, such as ourselves, that having multiple bots costs a lot. If Automation Anywhere wants to expand in the Indian market, they will need to look at their pricing."

"Its price is competitive with all other products in the market."

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

"The price is a little bit high but the support is good."

"When I started working on it, it was difficult to obtain a trial version (barrier to entry). Now, they have a Community Edition, which may make it easy to get started."

"Automation Anywhere is expensive, making it more suitable for enterprise organizations."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"Regarding the cost, it's not expensive for enterprises but can be costly for small to medium-sized businesses. I recommend implementing a pricing model tailored for small to medium businesses to attract a larger customer base. Approximately, the license cost is around sixty dollars per month."

"With SysAid, we paid for every end-user. If we had 100 end-users, we had to pay for each one of them. With IT Care Center, we can have as many users as we want. We only pay for the end unit. We have the asset manager and different models that we can use for the same price. So, it reduces costs."

"The licensing model is very flexible."

"We reduced our costs compared to our previous solution, which was really expensive. We managed to reduce costs by half by switching to IT Care Center, not including any professional services."

"This product is very cheap when compared to other platforms."

"Compared to other products in the market, pricing is reasonable. It does meet our usage and requirements."

"Buy it as one package, not as modules. That is from my knowledge and experience. Most of the time, it has better pricing. They have flexibility by price size in the negotiation."
