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.

Provides good stability, but it could be intuitive and easier to use
The product’s current version could be easier and straightforward to work with small IT organizations, similar to the older version. Its asset management feature has been significantly affected since the upgrade. Earlier, it was able to perform skill-based routing automatically. We could set up parameters within the system and view the details of the incident or a ticket. The same functionality needs to be fine-tuned in the new system.

It is stable and has useful features, but the automation feature needs improvement
All of the features are very suitable for us. It is also a stable solution Its automation feature needs improvement. They can include the vRealize Automation feature in this solution. I have been using VMware Service Manager for more than six years. It is stable. Its scalability is good, but…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, I would rate Automation Anywhere a nine out of ten."

"Simplicity and flexibility are its major plus points making it a leading industry solution for deploying cloud environments."

"It provides us the following: A better utilisation of the hardware, more flexibility, improved maintenance cycles, and a system overview."
"All of the features are very suitable for us. It is also a stable solution."

Cons

"To achieve a perfect ten, I would want to see new features working as expected and further advancements in automation."
"We would like to see the scalability improve from a local perspective."
"We have a new feature share in Automation Anywhere, but it does not migrate automatically from the previous version to the new one."
"The optical character recognition of various documents and templates, particularly when using the Arabic language, has room for improvement."
"Additionally, the user interface is quite outdated and could be more user-friendly. The licensing cost is also too high, which means many small-scale industries may not choose this product."
"Automation Anywhere is unable to connect to the database directly."
"There's potential for Automation Anywhere to integrate conversational types of tools and AI into their tool set, which would be really valuable."
"IQ Bot has some limitations that should be improved in future releases."
"The area where we would like to see improvement is in the asset management module."
"Their self-service is not user friendly."
"There are a few items that I would like changed or extra features that could be added to our current version of this software, but those are all going to be addressed in a future software update."
"The solution is cumbersome to use."
"The product’s current version could be easier and straightforward to work with small IT organizations, similar to the older version."
"Track-It! works great for a mid-size company, but anything over 700 employees, and trying to use Track-It! for any other areas of the business is difficult."
"Currently, if you go and check the reports in the packet, the reports are useless; reporting is really bad."
"Its automation feature needs improvement. They can include the vRealize Automation feature in this solution."
"It needs to improve user roles and access rights."
"Graphical User Interface looks a little bit old-school."
"Still new in the market and a lot of its features are still not yet explored."
"Not a ten because the price is high."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have seen ROI on one of the process, but not on the other processes yet."
"The pricing and licensing are definitely moderate to costly but easily recoverable by achieving ROI quickly."
"The licensing cost could be improved. It costs a lot. At the very least, the developer licenses and the control panels should be made free to enterprises, and the production environment licensed."
"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."
"The control room access gives the ability to create different roles, which helps when purchasing additional licensing."
"They recently launched a Community Edition, which is okay, but they should have done this a long time ago."
"Roughly, as of today, it is around $250,000 annually."
"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."
"BMC Track-It!’s price is reasonable compared to other products."
"The price depends on different enterprises. As compared to Citrix, VMware is reasonable."
