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.

Centralized metrics have improved risk visibility and now guide daily security decisions
One feature I would love to see in Cortex.io is more advanced real-time threat detection and automated alerting. I feel that this is very important, especially tailored for vulnerability severity and risk prioritization. Currently, Cortex.io provides excellent scoreboards and insights, but having real-time security alerts tied directly to risk levels, with automatic escalation and suggested remediation actions, will make the platform even more powerful in my opinion. This matters because it bridges the gap between observability and active security response, helping prioritize high-severity risks automatically, which can cut down the time spent manually correlating metrics and alerts. One area for Cortex.io's improvement could be deeper automation and actionable recommendations. For example, the automation prioritization for vulnerabilities by risk could have more remediation actions based on historical issues, and also more security tools for real-time alerts.

Prioritizes tasks and easily organizes messages and responses
I've not really noticed anything that needs to be improved with the solution. Generally, I enjoyed everything. Every feature LiveAgent has was a seamless journey for me. Maybe there are others who might notice one or two flaws on LiveAgent. I use LiveAgent, but based on my position in the company as a live chat professional, there is a level that I am restricted to. There are other products that are more popular and effective than LiveAgent, like Zendesk and HubSpot. They are among the most popular live chat products, and they have more users. I will advise that LiveAgent should look at what these other people are doing and use it to improve themselves. LiveAgent should add more functionalities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has saved us a lot of hours, manual effort, and we can focus on more important tasks, which helps us with our ROI."
"In terms of approximate time savings, traditionally processing an invoice took twenty minutes, but with all of this—not just Document Automation, but with all the other features—we are able to cut it down to less than five minutes, achieving almost a seventy-five to eighty percent efficiency gain."
"It saves time."
"Automation Anywhere has lots of features, some of them are accuracy increases, time consumption reduced, scalability. Automation Anywhere does not require a strong knowledge of programming languages. The dashboard is user-friendly."
"Automation Anywhere can have a significant impact on any company's operation, as it can automate a wide variety of tasks that are mundane, time-consuming, and the least productive."
"I have in fact told all my friends and colleagues who are in the RPA domain to work with Automation Anywhere because it's easier to run as well as to implement."
"We have seen increased productivity, because what used to take about two days to finish with laymen doing computer work, a bot can finish within a seven to eight hour time frame, meaning we are removing a lot of man-hours."
"There is a very accelerated learning curve on the platform."
"The best features Cortex.io offers are the dashboard, which is very detailed, and the fact that you can run different kinds of testing such as application security testing, vulnerability management testing, and cloud security testing, allowing you to see the levels and rankings of how vulnerable those situations are, including the risk factors."
"Cortex.io has positively impacted team collaboration because it provides clear visibility into service health, security posture, and operational metrics."
"Cortex.io is user-friendly, and its intuitive user interface is beneficial for non-technical team members."
"The visibility feature has helped our teams by resulting in a 75% reduction in mean time to restore, allowing us to get alerts and incident history instead of relying on scattered spreadsheets and unreliable tools, thus saving around 15 to 20 hours per newly created service."
"I like that this solution provides the history and control over every process connected to a building so we can see everything that's happened since we started using this solution."
"My experience with LiveAgent so far has been a seamless one."
"Provides service level optimization."
"The most valuable feature was how the solution helped us to prioritize tasks."
 

Cons

"The assign value function is not there in the A2019 Community edition, which makes it hard for a developer to manipulate the data."
"As a developer or user, I feel that the performance of the overall package could be made a little better or reliable."
"AI would enable improved automation and faster training times that would be reduced from one month to one week."
"It is very difficult to create and automate timetables because they are modal, and it would be helpful if the bot could assist us with this."
"The Automation Anywhere Control room component features can be improved, as of now it contains too many roles and rules which makes it confusing to use it."
"Improving on the ease of use and user experience of Automation Anywhere (AA) could help."
"IQ Bot does have some limitations."
"I would like to see extensive OCR capabilities in the next release."
"I have not seen a return on investment, so I cannot share relevant metrics."
"I wish Cortex.io could cater to smaller teams struggling with visibility and operational toil, as a lighter version would be really great."
"One feature I would love to see in Cortex.io is more advanced real-time threat detection and automated alerting."
"Deployment for Cortex.io is not a simple process and is somewhat complex."
"There are other products that are more popular."
"There are other products that are more popular and effective than LiveAgent, like Zendesk and HubSpot."
"I'd like to see an improved API to the system, rather than other softwares having to trigger everything."
"Connection to other softwares could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Considering the cost, it is a bit high, but worth the price because the output accuracy is high."
"Approximately, for a developer, it is around $750 for a license a year. For Bot Runners, it is about $550."
"It is fantastic. It has been great. It is perfectly priced for the quality received. When paying for quality, that is exactly what you get."
"We are currently negotiating a contract. Depending upon that, we will definitely look at increasing usage."
"We just did a round of price comparison on a global scale and found it's so hard to compare the license prices. But, Automation Anywhere, in general, is on the same price level as the other vendors, a bit lower in some cases."
"We generally follow the Gain-Sharing Pricing model, which enables the customer to start getting the RPA benefits right from day one of their implementation."
"We have seen ROI in terms of cost and time with a couple of our projects."
"The initial setup and licensing fees are high, and although it saves costs in the long run, reaching the break-even point can take at least six months."
