Nadeem K. - PeerSpot reviewer

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.

Stronger cloud security posture has reduced misconfigurations and simplifies compliance checks
The best features of Cloudanix are security posture management and monitoring cloud assets, reviewing security alerts, and tracking compliance across the Azure environment. The most valuable feature for my team is the security posture management capability. This provides a clear view of misconfigurations and security risks across the cloud environment, and it prioritizes them based on their potential impact. This helps us focus on the most critical issues instead of manually reviewing everything. Cloudanix has a positive impact by improving overall cloud security visibility and reducing the time needed to identify and remediate security issues. This has helped us respond faster to misconfigurations, strengthen the security posture, and reduce the operational effort required for cloud governance. I can provide rough metrics, though not internal metrics. The time required to identify and remediate cloud misconfiguration has been reduced by almost 40 to 50%. This is because it automatically prioritizes the highest-risk findings. We also reduced the amount of manual effort spent on compliance reviews and security checks, allowing the team to focus on higher-value work.

CEO at a tech vendor with 11-50 employees
Sudden access suspension has disrupted compliance work and raises serious trust concerns
Scytale unilaterally suspended access because in their opinion, I don't know why they did that. I'm assuming they think that we're competitive, which we're not. They sold us the system and sent a contract to us in full knowledge of what we do as a business. Compliance is a very broad word; we provide compliance into nonprofits, housing associations, markets that these guys do not serve. Somebody inside Scytale likely thought, "Oh my God, these guys must be competitive, so let's just cut them off." I'm assuming that's what happened, but there was no explanation, nothing. Scytale did not help me streamline my compliance processes. It didn't really identify gaps. There was no gap analysis in there that we could see. I didn't really get that far to use the effectiveness of Scytale's real-time insights in identifying potential compliance issues. All my experiences with Scytale have been negative. We haven't used the automated evidence collection of Scytale. Scytale has not helped me allocate resources more efficiently for compliance; it's been the opposite experience. We have put six months of effort into looking at the controls on 27001, talking about auditors, getting audit-ready, and so forth. But we've invested significant time, which has now been a complete waste of time. Scytale is not only unreliable, considering they can suspend access without any notice or formal reason, but this lack of stability results in serious concerns about their dependability as a partner. If they can do that without explanation, my fear is that even if they switch it on again, who's to know in three months' time that the same thing couldn't happen again?

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Compared to before, when processing a document took around three hours, we now complete it in one to two minutes thanks to Automation Anywhere and the latest document automation technology, saving around two hours and 55 minutes per user, which is a significant saving."
"Using this solution has brought a lot of return on investment in terms of saving hours or FTEs, and we are utilizing them in more constructive areas."
"It is easy to fix bug issues which you encounter in the post-production process."
"Automation Anywhere is stable."
"It is easy to understand how to use the tool. For a developer, it is very easy to understand the opportunities and how to use and learn these features. It is very business-oriented."
"With this innovative tool's automation, it is very dynamic, easy to develop, and deliver results quickly."
"AA has vastly improved my organization in gathering more business, reducing human efforts, and optimizing client business."
"You do not need to have IT skills. I come from a finance background, so I can attest to the fact that you do not need IT skills to use Automation Anywhere to leverage it on your teams."
"Choosing Cloudanix has proven very efficient and intuitive, and it remains easy to handle compared to other products available in the market."
"Cloudanix has a positive impact by improving overall cloud security visibility and reducing the time needed to identify and remediate security issues."
"The processes I participated in during the setup of Scytale were straightforward; it was acceptable and fine."
"Scytale has positively impacted my organization by giving us the ability to really educate our employees and make them aware, providing them more situational awareness when it comes to cybersecurity."
 

Cons

"There is an issue with the object cloning in Excel. OCR is also not that stable. Image recognition works fine, but not all the time."
"It needs stability improvements. Sometimes, it becomes unstable."
"If I build a bot today and don't use it, however, in several months, someone tries to use it, there's a 30-40% change the bot will fail in one or two areas."
"I would like to see web and cloud-based platforms for future releases."
"One thing with the bot that we are always struggling with is the memory management."
"The older versions, like version 8 and 9, were not very stable."
"Sometimes, the bot struggles to initiate on the cloud, even when everything appears in place. This issue occasionally requires uninstalling and reinstalling a component on my PC, although I cannot recall the specific component involved."
"I would like more integration with Microsoft Excel. More screenshots that can be integrated with Excel would help our customers too."
"Cloudanix could improve by addressing the limitations in terms of customization."
"Scytale is not reliable at all; not stable. You would be unwise to put a mission-critical function like ISO 27001 on Scytale."
"Scytale can be improved by making the interface a bit more consistent in most areas of the platform, as sometimes it can be confusing, and some information can be inaccessible or cut off."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing costs range from $50,000 to $200,000."
"The pricing is reasonable and one can achieve ROI faster when compared to other tools."
"The cost of Automation Anywhere is high in Turkey due to the weak economy."
"We have saved a lot of money on taxes based on the stuff that we run."
"They are already coming out with a community license, which is really good. That's something that I wish to have."
"Additional costs will be for the machines and the number of machines that you are using. You can deploy virtually as well as on physical machines. In both the situations, you do need to allocate a certain budget for securing the machines and where the software will be installed and running. The machines cannot be used for anything else, because only a certain bot can run at a certain time. You need to be very particular about your scheduling of running the bots, and while the bot is running nobody can use the machine. You cannot have an agent working on a machine and the bot running in the background. It has to be completely dedicated. Then there are the network bandwidth requirements and space requirements, which are additional costs apart from the licensing and software costs. The developer is also going to charge you for their coding time too."
"The cost is affordable, which makes an easy barrier to entry for the RPA market."
"Annual licensing costs would be about $100,000."
