Nadeem K.

Rpa Developer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees

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.

Offers good UI but needs to improve its integration capabilities

Speaking about how the tool is useful in automating repetitive tasks in our company, I would say that my company started to collect data with the help of Datamatics while also using its GPS tracking features. The tool's UI is much better than the ones offered by other similar products in the market. I recommend the product to others who plan to use it. I suggest that others use their own method of interrogation since it will help them achieve more growth in their organizations through the use of the tool. I rate the tool a seven and a half out of ten.

No-code workflows have streamlined daily operations and support seamless cross-application automation

Microsoft Power Automate's no-code workflows help my team in daily operations to a great extent. Automating a particular activity may not be so useful, but when you connect the whole workflow, then it starts helping a lot. I cannot say much about the best features in Microsoft Power Automate because I have not used it personally, but first of all, it is very easy, it is a low-code platform, and Microsoft has a lot of integration with Microsoft technologies, making it very easy to connect with MS Teams and different Microsoft products, including MS Azure. From that point of view, it provides a lot of connectivity options. From a cost point of view, Mendix is much more costly compared to Microsoft Power Platform, allowing us to develop applications very quickly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It most benefitted us in converting daily routine tasks into automated processes at minimal cost with available infrastructure."

"Automation Anywhere has transformed the financial, healthcare, and automobile sectors to a great extent by automating backend office work."

"Automation Anywhere offers better value and is more effective for organizations seeking cost-effective solutions."

"Adding Automation Anywhere is a tremendous value-add in the long-term."

"Document automation has indeed been beneficial in handling large volumes of documents in our organization, where we process product-related data sheets that range from 80 to 120 pages, efficiently extracting data that would take a human several hours to read manually."

"The feature of this solution that I like the most is that it is coding free - it is a coding free tool. It does not need much coding at all. For all the activities you just drag and drop. That is the best advantage of this tool."

"Automation is going to become a new area we will certainly encourage a lot of people to pursue because of the lasting dividends it provides, including saving time and manpower."

"The ease of access and deployment are the most valuable features."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"Ability to calculate the ROI on the jobs that are running."

"The solution is very stable and we have not had any issues."

"The solution is inexpensive compared to many other solutions in the market."

"We believe that the value and the cost of the Datamatics TruBot really fits financial institutions' budgets much better than what we'd call the big three, the Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism, UiPath."

"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward and easy to use."

"This solution improved the reporting in our organization. The financial department was doing a lot of copy pasting from different sources to create financial reports. Through ProcessRobot, we were able to automate all those copy pasting and produce all those financial reports overnight."

"My advice on this product would be to focus on the human in the loop because Power Automate is really great when you want to communicate with users in the middle of a crisis, or if you want some interaction with different people or want to orchestrate workflow between different departments."

"To me, what's most useful in WinAutomation by Softomotive is that it's quite intuitive, especially because most of the capabilities of the older WinAutomation remain."

"The tool is very good at implementing automation within processes. It's saved us from doing a lot of manual processes."

"The solution is booming at the moment."

"Power Automate Desktop allowed me to quickly visually identify parts of a screen and record it. So I can see that I know I'm going to have to click this button here, this field there, and this tab here, and I can literally go and quickly just record all of them and identify them and have them in a list that I can see and say - there's my list of things."

"The best feature of the tool is that it is generic, so it allows one to do as he wishes."

"The most valuable features of Microsoft Power Automate are the connectors, such as loops, which make things easier."

More Microsoft Power Automate pros

Cons

"Automation Anywhere is easy to use, even if you lack technical skills. People without deep technical expertise can easily develop scenarios."

"As a developer, I find Automation Anywhere's bot editor riddled with minor workflow issues that hinder productivity."

"I would like to see more complex use cases coming out for our industry."

"We have a lot of use cases that depend on certain Java applets, and currently we're not able to leverage the Object Cloning that would speed up our automation designing. So we have to revert to more image recognition-type of designing, and it just takes a long time to get that bot built."

"In the last two years, with the help of IQ Bot, and what I learned today about this Attended Automation 2.0, I think they are addressing vital key challenges that we have faced so far."

"Improvements that can be made are: It should be easier to automate tasks on a virtual machine that uses a different environment altogether."

"Automation Anywhere has a persistent click-related issue that can make automation difficult, particularly in unattended environments."

"For people who don't have technical skills, Automation Anywhere may take time when it comes to browsing or loading time, and sometimes becomes very buggy with unwanted failures."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"I'd like to see more additions to the library, which I believe currently has 200 plus items."

"There is a learning curve, and some training could be included to bring users up to speed."

"The stability of the product has certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."

"Would like to see more additions to the library."

"While working with non-structured data (like logs and user tracking information that usually fits the criteria of big data), all the data sources must pass by a data quality process via any ETL tool before linking and publishing any information to the automation workflows and forms."

"Its licensing model should be improved. The pricing should be more visible and transparent. When you consume services, there are too many criteria to figure out how much it is going to cost you to use the product to its full extent. It should also support visual process editing, which is a standard feature for BPMN 2.0 compliance. They should improve the visual designer."

"Microsoft Power Automate is limited if we want to create a complex flow because we have to split the log into two flows."

"When comparing with Automation Anywhere, there are a couple of things that this product doesn't have. One of the major things is the key management system. It would be great if they improve this. Its documentation can also be improved."

"It should be more stable, and their technical support should be faster. It should also have more integration with tools from other vendors, such as SAP and Oracle, and technology partners, such as Salesforce."

"Use it for basic workflows, but I wouldn't recommend it for anything that is mission-critical."

"The coding part could be improved. Sometimes, there are triggers that require coding."

"In an upcoming release, the exception handling mechanism could improve. The issue that we are facing is whenever there is a failure in any of the middle execution and if you wanted to navigate it to the end of the last line of execution, we do not have this feature available. If we had this feature it would make it even more stable."

More Microsoft Power Automate cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution costs approximately $3,500 USD per license."

"We have a few licenses. They cost roughly $10,000 each."

"We are currently negotiating a contract. Depending upon that, we will definitely look at increasing usage."

"Although the initial implementation cost of Automation Anywhere is relatively high compared to other options, its annual subscription cost is lower than UiPath's, which has the opposite pricing structure."

"If it is saving FTE and Generating a good ROI then it is Worth Investing."

"The product’s pricing is reasonable."

"I am not involved in the pricing, but based on what I hear from our central RPA team, it is not very expensive; it is also not cheap. Its price is in the midrange."

"The licensing cost could be improved. It costs a lot. At the very least, the developer licenses and the control panels should be made free to enterprises, and the production environment licensed."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"The tool is expensive."

"When we purchase the Microsoft Dynamics license, the Power Automate license is often free, albeit with some limitations, such as a certain number of transactions per user."

"Its licensing is flexible."

"The price of the solution is reasonable. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."

"We are just using the free products at the moment. We are using the ones that come with the license that we have got."

"Good price-quality relationship. Its features for its price were the best fit for our company."

"I believe one of the advantages of this device is its low cost."

"This is a cost-effective product and now that it has been acquired by Microsoft, we don't expect the cost to increase with the next release."

"The free version is quite good."
