Nadeem K. - PeerSpot reviewer
Rpa Developer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Automation has freed teams from repetitive finance and supply tasks and supports global operations
In the current organization, we had trouble initially because I think the documentation and support could be better than what it is now. This is one difference between Automation Anywhere and other RPA tools such as UiPath. In UiPath, if you have an issue, you go to the UiPath website and search for it, and you get lots of help materials. In Automation Anywhere, you do not get exactly what you are looking for. You get a very large number of results when you search for something, and from this large result set, you have to filter out what you need, or only partial information will be available. User handbooks are available for each product. In that regard, I would say Automation Anywhere is lagging compared to other RPA tools. It is difficult to get hold of their customer support team. I want to clarify that it is not a matter of us building logic on Automation Anywhere and it failing. When it is a product-related issue, they have to give us support because we only know how to develop within Automation Anywhere. We do not know how to fix Automation Anywhere itself. Whenever we have an issue, trying to get in touch with them always takes three to four business days.

Long-term ticket management has become straightforward and supports efficient incident handling
The best feature of BMC Remedy is that you can easily understand all the features in it as they are not complicated. When you click on new incident, all the fields are self-explanatory regarding what is required to be put in the work details node section assigned to chrome. These are all pretty easy to understand, and nothing much training is required for a person to start working on BMC Remedy.

Helpful smart automation and tracking that can be used with minimal adjustments
This is a recording system, and it's an automation system. It's very smart. I use it with minimal adjustments needed. The focus is on test management. Everything can be tracked from asset management. Asset management offers many facilities. It doesn't require additional training for ManageEngine or technicians. Assets are simply reported from the dashboard, indicating where IT is missing, where compliance is mentioned, or where action is needed, with driver updates. All facilities are available in the enterprise edition, allowing users, customers, or any organization to easily obtain their referred insights. Anyone can easily install it. There are no handbells. An app provides instructions, with documentation available. Sometimes, IT issues arise like fraud blocking or service-related problems. Upon facing an issue, feedback is integrated, and the solution is provided from their end. This is a very IT-friendly solution. We get LiveSat and IT management. Facilities are accessible, like exporting the installation folder, making the migration process easy. Failover or redundancy can occur within two to five hours, making it scalable. This is a very stable solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My clients have seen tremendous value when it comes to automating business processes, and the robust nature of the application allows them to scale their business processes pretty quickly."
"We saw a 70 percent decrease in manual steps. If something took 10 steps to do, we are doing it in three steps today."
"The application replaced about three employees for the OFAC verification processes, thus eliminating the need to hire more people for those tasks."
"By using this solution for RPA, we can automate a lot of business processes, which helps achieve less time to market."
"What Automation Anywhere is offering is amazing from a back-end office accounting standpoint."
"The solution is easy to learn and with it, it's easy to replicate knowledge."
"The impact of Automation Anywhere on our organization has been significant; it has helped us save a considerable amount of time, approximately 30% to 40%, in repetitive processes and has improved automation accuracy."
"In terms of monetary savings, we automated a bot in three days that has saved us $30,000 in costs."
"It has some good features for tracking. They also have a cloud and a mobile access feature."
"The customer support is great, maybe that's because I'm with a big client."
"The service management features are beneficial – very good."
"I would tell potential users that this is a good and reliable solution; it's a solution that has stood the test of time, not something new that hasn't been used extensively, and many Fortune 500 companies use it, so it's definitely a good solution."
"It includes features for automation, such as smart reporting capabilities."
"BMC Remedy Asset Management is pretty easy for quite a lot of functions."
"BMC Remedy Asset Management is scalable and easy to do."
"The most valuable feature of the solution includes all of its components since they act as the authentication system of the product."
"ManageEngine IT Asset Management helps with guarantee and warranty period management, license expiration tracking, device patches, and integration with our finance system for depreciation and invoicing."
"As far as IT Asset Management is concerned, I would rate it at ten out of ten."
"The most valuable component of the ITSM tool is the help desk due to its organized way of raising tickets."
"The technical support is great."
"It is a great product, and we are very satisfied with the features."
"The ability to define custom templates for asset management helps track assets, budgets, warranties, and expiries effectively."
"The auto-discovery feature has helped us a lot."
"This is a very stable solution."
 

Cons

"Its pricing definitely needs to be more competitive. When licensing costs are high, we cannot use this tool for automation."
"The focus on usability and user experience is bang on. Addressing several personas and making it easy for every persona to adopt and embrace is the spot on focus. That's an area that has a lot more room to improve. In the absence of that, the skills and expertise in the industry are going to struggle and if you need broader adoption, which has maximum potential, the persona-based user experience is a focus and I'd say Automation Anywhere is already working on."
"On the user side, we have seen issues with user training."
"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."
"IQ Bot has been changed and enhanced for Automation Anywhere, but the accuracy is still not optimal."
"I would like to have the ability to work on a remote desktop connection, run the recording on it and use all commands."
"Automation Anywhere could benefit from more in-person support, as they currently maintain only a virtual presence."
"We would like it to be more user-friendly."
"The product's scalability is one area with certain shortcomings that need to be considered for improvement."
"I think the way the Software Asset Management is designed makes it kind of complicated."
"The interface is obsolete."
"The licensing model of BMC Remedy Asset Management should improve. It is expensive and it is difficult to understand."
"The initial setup of BMC Remedy Asset Management was complex."
"There are issues from a product functionality perspective."
"One area that requires improvement is the prevention of duplicates or data inconsistencies in the system."
"BMC Remedy's change management module needs enhancement."
"I would love to see a digital adoption feature or guide that navigates first-time users through the application, as it is quite complex with many relevant and irrelevant elements."
"It would be helpful if there were a premium technician license that includes all the suites, eliminating the need to buy separate licenses for each feature."
"I hope it includes barcode features, as barcode scanning and MacAdes cannot currently be mapped with this field."
"Responses from ManageEngine should be faster."
"However, the issue is that the knowledge base often shows information for older versions such as versions 12, 13, or 11, while we are working with ManageEngine IT Asset Management 15.1."
"It requires some development to be better, more comfortable, and usable, enhancing customer satisfaction."
"Currently, we are having some challenges in managing assets. We are still managing them in Excel sheets and keeping a track of them outside the system."
"The engineering area needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In terms of monetary savings, we automated a bot in three days that has saved us $30,000 in costs."
"Price is where I'm least satisfied. Other vendors are more willing to offer discounts."
"There is an annual subscription for Automation Anywhere."
"The setup cost for this is onetime and licensing is based on your choice of product."
"In most of the cases, the product value is very good. If the infrastructure, implementation, and framework are good, then generally, the client can get a good return on investment."
"It is not cheap, with costs ranging between 700 to 800 dollars per month. While Power Automate is cheaper at 15 dollars per month, Automation Anywhere offers superior features, user-friendliness, and smoothness."
"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."
"My understanding is that the license cost of Automation Anywhere is more reasonable than UiPath and Blue Prism."
"BMC no longer sells Remedy separately. They've transitioned to selling the BMC Helix platform. Remedy itself is nearing end-of-support."
"With the product, you can either go for a yearly or a perpetual licensing model."
"The licensing model of BMC Remedy Asset Management should improve. It is expensive and it is difficult to understand."
"BMC Remedy is worth its price."
"It is an expensive tool."
"The tool is expensive."
"The pricing is in-between. It's not too cheap, and it's not too expensive. For a large organization, it's worth it. But for a smaller one, it might be a bit costly."
"BMC should decrease the pricing further."
"Its price is reasonable, but I wish it was lower."
