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 unified workflows and now drives AI-orchestrated operations for our teams
We are a sports tech company building the new standard in athlete visibility, and we rely heavily on Cerbrec's AI expertise and AI agent development to help make what we do possible. Our primary use case is automating operational workflows without heavy custom coding Cerbrec has significantly…

Automation has transformed complex workflows and has empowered non‑technical teams to build flows
Regarding improvements for n8n, I would highlight two areas. First, while there is a growing community, the ecosystem of pre-built nodes for niche or proprietary systems still lags behind some commercial competitors. I often have to build custom HTTP request nodes or create my own node packages, which is doable but adds to project timelines. Second, features for team collaboration and lifecycle management are still evolving. Moving workflows from development to staging to production can be a manual export-import process, and native Git integration and more robust user roles for larger client teams would be a game-changer. Regarding needed improvements, I believe much of the existing documentation is not peer-reviewed. There is definitely a big community, but if the documentation or tutorials were approved or at least had a badge from n8n, customers would feel that this meets the standards of n8n editors themselves, which would give more confidence in the flows.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"With Automation Anywhere, it has become very easy for us to do invoice billing. It has saved us about 80% of the time."
"The time savings from using Document Automation are substantial, as previously a team of about five to ten people managed specific processes end-to-end, such as processing fourteen thousand entries in a month, but after automation, that entire process is streamlined, saving us a lot of FTEs."
"Automation Anywhere (AA) is really fast on the development side. It's an efficient and intelligent RPA tool, with a good engine and good connectors."
"In most of the use cases, both time and cost are being saved, which is the reason they are using these automations."
"The Automation Anywhere automation tool is user-friendly, especially compared to UiPath and Blue Prism."
"The platform is easy to use, especially for business users."
"Learning Automation Anywhere prepares our students for a better future because the future belongs to RPA Automation."
"We offer them a cost and time-effective solution for repeated and time-consuming processes, which surely help a lot in terms of improving quality."
"Cerbrec has significantly improved our operational efficiency by unifying disparate workflows into a single AI-orchestrated system."
"Cerbrec’s ability to rapidly prototype solutions, test them, and make changes has allowed them to leapfrog similar solutions in terms of value delivery."
"The best features n8n offers are automation and integration with different tools including Calendar, Gmail, WATI, and many other tools, which help me complete my work faster."
"The user-friendly interface positively impacted the team's workflow efficiency."
"n8n helps automate jobs that no one enjoys doing, which are very repetitive, and it saves time and money because it handles those boring tasks that can now be automated."
"Our business is growing faster because we have created workflows that help us improve our business."
"My recommendation is to start with n8n if you have any need for automation or integration, especially if you value control, cost predictability, and technical transparency."
"n8n has positively impacted my organization because we previously needed to write product descriptions manually for over 50,000 products on our website, so we created an automation that automatically writes all meta descriptions and titles, which significantly supports our growth and is very helpful and time-saving for us."
"I appreciated how n8n can be integrated with other services such as WhatsApp, LinkedIn, and Twitter, and the automation tasks it performs."
"We see roughly a 70% reduction in manual processing time on the document pipeline side, which means our clients can focus on higher-value audit and compliance work rather than data entry."
 

Cons

"The areas in which the product and service must be improved are in the government sector and ministries such as the Ministry of Education and Health."
"Debugging can be particularly tricky; identifying the exact reasons for bot failures can be time-consuming."
"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."
"They should consider being more multi-platform."
"Automation Anywhere can include database commands like insert row, bold row, etc commands in 11.x"
"I would like the support to be faster. Their response time is one to two days. Their customer care could be faster."
"These guys need to build a good team."
"I would like if the IQ Bot could read hand-written documents, otherwise, Automation Anywhere is fabulous to work or develop processes for customers."
"Documentation for advanced agent customization is good, but it could include more real-world examples."
"The setup of n8n is sometimes very complicated, especially with the HTTP node, which is complex to set up."
"n8n has a bit of a learning curve to it; you have to learn a lot."
"What I would like for them to improve is to include more nodes and different service provider integrations, just the way Zapier does."
"I have set up n8n on our local server, which is on a Contabo-based server, and sometimes it was losing connection."
"From my experience, n8n is stable, though the part that can be less stable is that you must stay connected to many APIs."
"In my experience, n8n is not very stable, but it has the potential to be more stable."
"They haven't fully helped tailor solutions for our needs."
"Overall, n8n is a powerful tool, but there are a few areas where it could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We save 34,000 hours of time per year and have recouped up to $6000 in lost revenue."
"It's a bit expensive compared to other RPA tools on the market."
"If I compare it with Blue Prism, Automation Anywhere is cheaper. Blue Prism is very costly. Automation Anywhere's pricing follows the market, not less and not more."
"Automation Anywhere is thought to be quite expensive, especially for smaller organizations."
"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."
"The cost can be reduced a little for users."
"Our advice is that anybody interested in this product should negotiate product bundles in order to reduce the cost of installation and setup."
"It's justified because we have saved quite a bit of money at the company and many manual hours. Overall, it justifies the cost."
