Venkat Sivaprakash - PeerSpot reviewer
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 streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions
I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.
Mohammed Zaman - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Lead Developer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
It's easy to create Python libraries and custom scripts for a particular client and general use cases
We've had conversations with the head of Robocorp over Slack about things we want to improve. We want to introduce some packages, but the authentication tokens and many other things are not there. We can do it in Python, but the custom packages are unavailable. We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities. I don't know if they have updated the UI in the latest version, but they could improve that. The UI selector isn't that great. It would be nice to take elements from the console and customize parts. Everything is based on command lines, which I do not like. A flow chart with block items would be good for optimizing code. I would also like more support tools for developers so it's easier to understand when passing code to others.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"For the tasks that I do repeatedly, I can record processes using Automation Anywhere. I record mouse and keyboard actions and create a workflow for those activities. This minimizes my workload. The recording option is very useful."
"Automation Anywhere is scalable and capable of adapting to any new requirements and technologies."
"The RPA automation itself is valuable."
"What I appreciate most about Automation Anywhere is its user interface, which is very friendly and simple when compared to UiPath and Power Automate, featuring drag-and-drop capabilities, control rooms for both cloud and on-premises, and the ability for business users to run bots with just half an hour of training."
"It can be used for customer service support, data extraction, data migration, and software installation."
"Technical support for this solution is the quickest and the best."
"Unattended use is its most valuable feature."
"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 product has increased efficiency and reduced the time spent on tasks."
"The web interface that was introduced in the recent version helps because you are not dependent on any particular system."
"The entire backend system structure is something that I found really valuable."
"They recently released the newest version that has a good program flow, quality, and blueprints that are all good improvements to the automation, and they also have good integration with SAP."
"Their development interface is very easy to navigate."
"The most valuable feature of BotFarm is the fact that we can use escalations when we need more computer power to fulfill all embargo that we receive in one day."
"I use it in my client project to extract data and communicate it for business purposes."
"Automation Anywhere provides a very flexible UI."
"It offers high scalability and enables automation in ways that haven't been possible before."
"The ability to create separate organizations on this platform makes it easier to bill each of the clients separately."
"The product has a valuable business process automation feature."
"It's easy to deploy bots via the API helper in Control Room. Robocorp's debugging features are also robust. It shows you a lot of data."
"I can use it as a library by importing Python scripts, allowing me to access its many features while working with coding."
"As a developer, I found it easy to integrate third-party applications with Robocorp. I have previous experience with Selenium, and I found the Robocorp framework to be accessible because it uses Python and Selenium keywords."
"I like the fact that it's very fast. The processing speed is good, and that's what matters to me. I also like that we don't have to bother with the infrastructure setup. We don't have to care about the status of the data set, as I believe the local group will provide it. We don't care about the licensing model. We only have to care about how long we are using it."
"The solution is based on Python which makes it very valuable."
 

Cons

"Their OCR is a bit expensive, meaning the IQ Bot."
"The AI is very important, and they are starting to use AI. They could continue to develop it out."
"The architecture and pro-code support for pro-code agents are areas that could use improvement, which they don't have currently."
"What we currently have with Fortress IQ needs to mature more, and I say this since people spend weeks creating PDDs documentation."
"Queue management is still missing from the latest version which is a barrier to using the platform to start implementing complex cases where you have parent and child transactions going through multiple stages."
"The availability of material in terms of more technical documentation could be improved, particularly in-depth information about how things can be done."
"The platform has good capabilities, but it could improve by providing more development options."
"The pricing, setup cost, and licensing of the platform are the worst. This is my major concern and complaint."
"An area for improvement in BotFarm is that the communication between the Control Room and the Bot Client Missions isn't utilized well. There's also the issue with PCI DSS compliance or certain regulations that require a set of configurations that are not fully supported by BotFarm. The product should be certified or designed according to the required regulations in the finance industry to make it better."
"The tool must execute remedial actions to resolve problems before they cause significant incidents."
"The only challenge that we have faced with BotFarm is that there is no continuous deployment. The whole world is moving to the DevOps model, but BotFarm is still not on the DevOps model. It should have integration with the DevOps model. The migration of the bots or bots pipeline is currently purely manual."
"It would be ideal if the solution offered more language options, such as Arabic."
"The pricing of this product could be better."
"It is too expensive and not worth the price."
"The discovery suite that they just acquired could be included."
"The community forums can be improved a little bit because they have mixed solutions or discussions with respect to some ideas."
"We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities."
"I don't like the complexity of deployment."
"We use the latest version of the process studio and it takes up a lot of CPU storage. In our case, this has been up to 14 GB of storage."
"The deployment process is complex and not straightforward, especially for legacy modernization."
"It would be better if it were more user-friendly for non-technical users. It would be better if they had some drag-and-drop features to create logic."
"Robocorp is still in development, so most of the keywords are a bit confusing. I have to alter lots of automation steps between processing and development. However, Selenium is due for an update soon, and Robcorp is addressing some of the limitations caused by the previous Selenium version."
"An additional feature I'm looking for in Robocorp is SAP automation."
"They should fully develop Robocorp Studio because it would attract a lot of people to the Robocorp platform."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere is somewhat expensive. The prices are slightly higher, but if you need something, you must pay for it."
"We are restricted to use one license on one PC. However, if my license is not working, I want to be able to use it somewhere else. This would be a nice improvement to the licensing, as other competitors in the market have better licensing terms."
"Price is where I'm least satisfied. Other vendors are more willing to offer discounts."
"The cost is high for small-scale businesses but it is fine for medium and large enterprises. Its high licensing cost may affect small-scale businesses. Reducing licensing costs would benefit many users."
"The licensing fees are approximately $10,000 USD for between five and ten users."
"We purchase on a bot basis. Our costs are approximately $5,000."
"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!"
"If it is saving FTE and Generating a good ROI then it is Worth Investing."
"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."
"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."
"Its price is quite high as compared to other solutions, but it has a lot of features and good stability. They should reduce its price."
"I am very happy with the pricing."
"The pricing is fair."
"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."
"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."
"The solution is a very affordable price."
"In terms of licenses, there is a return on investment in that area."
"The product has good pricing."
"It's a cost-effective solution."
"The pricing is fine."
"The price is cheaper than other competitors. I would rate the cost as one out of five."
"Robocorp is much better in terms of pricing compared to UiPath."
"You don't have to pay for the license. You have to pay for the time you use it."
