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.

Offers multi-tenancy architecture, both in terms of functionality and reporting, requires minimal configuration and no-code deployment
We're still biased towards our previous, more mature product. 4me still needs to reach that level of maturity. However, for most users, the product will do what they need. It's only when you have mature service management processes and need deeper integrations at the process level that you might encounter some limitations. But for less mature needs, 4me works well.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"They've now included the code so we can add some additional code, and that's good."
"Automate Anywhere can just mimic what a human does."
"The whole suite of RPA modules that they have is very good. They have three environments in which you can do your automation. You have development, staging, and production environments. These are run by licenses as well, which is very good. There are a lot of ways of automating processes with this application."
"The scalability of Automation Anywhere, the framework, and user interface are particularly impressive."
"It is easier to learn, implement, and get things done with Automation Anywhere compared to other tools on market right now."
"What Automation Anywhere has done is free up more time for our staff, and they're able to handle exceptions in our processes instead of having to do the mundane, repetitive tasks they were doing previously."
"The deployment is very easy."
"We automated these processes so they will be processed automatically, and users will get the end result for validation—it is basically time-saving for them."
"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."
"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 solution is highly stable."
"The multi-tenancy architecture, both in terms of functionality and reporting, is the best feature. It is a really well-thought, designed, and developed part of this product."
"When compared to BMC Helix ITSM, the 4me setup is much simpler and less complicated."
"It offers a comprehensive set of features without requiring additional payments for each feature."
"I like their request management as well as their project management."
 

Cons

"We had a few setbacks because of bots getting queued and unable to force delete a task bot which kept persisting in the control room. These features should be included in future releases which will be highly beneficial."
"Regarding the UI, once you're in some of the screens there are fixed dialogues. They are a set size, so there's a lot of horizontal scrolls and vertical scrolls."
"I would like a couple more features where I can talk and the line comes up automatically."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"Some things that I do not see as of today are interactive chat or video interface."
"The schedule queue needs improvement. When one task fails, everything else gets stuck, requiring manual intervention to clear the problematic schedule and trigger the other tasks."
"My experience with the pricing, setup cost, and licensing is mixed. It is somewhere in between, not the most cost-efficient but also not the highest cost, so it can be better."
"IQ Bot does have some limitations."
"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."
"Deployment for Cortex.io is not a simple process and is somewhat complex."
"One feature I would love to see in Cortex.io is more advanced real-time threat detection and automated alerting."
"We would like to be able to customize and brand the solution, or at least the majority of its features and dashboards, particularly those that will be used by a large number of people."
"One area where I believe there's room for improvement in the 4me system is the absence of an asset discovery tool."
"We're still biased towards our previous, more mature product. 4me still needs to reach that level of maturity."
"Asset Discovery is a feature that should be added."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a bit expensive compared to other RPA tools on the market."
"The major reason that we selected Automation Anywhere was the licensing model."
"Overall, the pricing of Automation Anywhere is good."
"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."
"They all are very competitive today. At the end of the day, it boils down to the negotiations that happen and what type of partner you are."
"The price of this product is good."
"The Community Edition is a good offering from the company."
"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."
Information not available
"It is the most affordable because it is priced per month per user."
"The licensing costs on the website are about $60 for pay-as-you-go. And then it decreases based on volume discounts or something."
"This pricing falls on the lower end of the spectrum, making it a cost-effective option."
"The pricing is expensive."
