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.

Pipeline framework has transformed how I evaluate RAG models and optimize vector search
The best feature Deepset AI Platform offers is the pipeline feature that is very easy for me to compose the large language model as well as the vector database search and retrieval, allowing me to build the application and the evaluation script within a very short period of time. The pipeline feature and the ease of composing with large language models and vector search save me a lot of time by not writing the code from scratch. I just build the pipeline because Deepset AI Platform provides the out-of-the-box integration with the tools and stack that I am using, including the OpenAI model as well as the Pinecone API. I do not need to implement the details; I just use the existing tools in Haystack, pulling it together for the pipeline. This allows me to avoid too much detailed coding and saves me a lot of work, enabling me to focus on the evaluation. Deepset AI Platform positively impacts our organization because we previously did not use any framework for Gen AI applications, and the introduction of this stack provides a framework for our team. It lets our team think about it and shows that it is worth introducing a framework in the future.

Automation has saved thousands of hours by processing bulk data and managing emails efficiently
The best features SS&C Blue Prism offers include powerful automation, easy-to-use process flow, and excellent integration capabilities. Data manipulation and handling is very easy and user-friendly. It is very secure, especially in handling sensitive data such as credentials. One of my favorite features of SS&C Blue Prism that stands out is its seamless integration with various systems. This includes features such as load balancing, encryption, audit, and spying modes. The capability proves to be a significant advantage when automating tasks across different applications and platforms, which saves a lot of time. The email handling feature is spot-on, and we are able to automate these tasks easily, saving a lot of time. SS&C Blue Prism has positively impacted my organization as it can easily handle a large amount of data, being very scalable. It also saves time through automation of email. It saved a considerable amount of time, more than 5,000 hours of manual work so far. It saved a considerable amount of money as well. The costing metrics will improve largely. It also requires very little coding. Instead of hiring new people trained in a specific tool, we were able to manage this with the existing workforce with a few weekend classes.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features for us are the Image Recognition and Object Cloning. We used this feature to automate our web-based tasks with repetitive actions or complex conditions. These features are very easy to use and do not require you to have deep knowledge in programming to understand since it has a drop and drag feature used to control it."
"The valuable features that I see for automation with enterprise RPA are IQ Bot and Bot Insights. If you do anything, Bot Insight will provide the dashboard. It starts from the developer with artificial intelligence and the dashboard, which will provide the visibility of business-level metrics as well as operational-level metrics. Those are the good things I see in automation."
"Many tasks take a long time for a person to do them. Automation Anywhere enables us to do those jobs in less time."
"It helps increase productivity by 20% to 30%."
"Automation Anywhere and even previous versions, which I've worked on, have good core functionality. The core functionality of being able to automate and build a solution that is local and low code is one of the key differentiators that's allowed us to find success."
"The most valuable feature is recording in the Control Room, as it allows me to chose what I want to have recorded, ensuring that I get the right thing on time."
"From an organizational perspective, it has improved how we work and determine, "Is there a better way to do things?" and, "How can we challenge the status quo?" This builds a continuous improvement mindset throughout our organization."
"From a technical perspective, developers can easily create bots and get things done with this tool."
"Specific outcomes since using Deepset AI Platform include ROI from fewer unsupported AI answers, faster context retrieval, and better manager trust in our quality answers."
"The best feature Deepset AI Platform offers is the pipeline feature that is very easy for me to compose the large language model as well as the vector database search and retrieval, allowing me to build the application and the evaluation script within a very short period of time."
"We have converted manual processes into RPA processes, leading to significant time, money, and quality savings."
"I find the design studio, where I can build the automation, and the control room feature, which allows me to run and monitor the automation, to be the most useful."
"Some important features include the language capabilities, which are crucial since RPA has to read the documents provided by the customer."
"The key feature of SS&C that I find valuable is the general workflow visibility."
 

Cons

"There are improvements needed in error handling processes, as currently, they rely on start and end error commands."
"Better support for Excel is needed because there are a lot of limitations and we are having issues with it."
"We have faced some downtime and crashes with the system, but with the cooperation of the Automation Anywhere team, we have been able to contain that."
"I would like more with OCR and data capture. We are partnering with IBM to help bridge this gap, but Automation Anywhere should continue to expand on their product line and provide these capabilities, as well."
"The UI could be made better because the UI in Version 11 was better and easier as compared to a2019."
"Maybe not improved but I heard that the 2019 version is going to look more like UiPath, which is not ideal for a typical/classic developer."
"The initial setup was quite complex. We have faced an issue. During the initial implementation stages, it took longer than we expected. It affected our timelines to a certain extent."
"I would like to see more bots available right out-of-the-box in the SAP area."
"Deepset AI Platform's accuracy and reliability of output are very good when the pipeline is simple and the data is already clean. However, when the data is not clean and the pipeline is complex, the quality and reliability of Deepset AI Platform decrease."
"I noticed that it lacks the ability to automatically record the process steps like some of its competitors."
"There is a need for improved integration with external systems in SS&C."
"Blue Prism is more costly than UiPath in terms of robotic licenses and orchestrators."
"Regarding improvements, I perceive that the Desktop automation needs enhancements, especially in input stages for dropdown options."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere offers a subscription-based licensing model for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid deployments."
"It's fine. However, I'm concerned with the credits in terms of the pricing for the AI models. It is understandable that the new ones are more expensive, but the base models, after doing the pricing conversion, cost about four to ten times as much as paying directly."
"Approximately, for a developer, it is around $750 for a license a year. For Bot Runners, it is about $550."
"Price is where I'm least satisfied. Other vendors are more willing to offer discounts."
"Automation Anywhere's pricing falls within the mid-range, but the long-term benefits outweigh the initial investment."
"The cost of this solution is a little bit high, but it is worth the price."
"I would rate the cost of Automation Anywhere as a six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
"There is an annual license to use the solution."
