Management Consultant at Accenture

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.

Stable with good cross-integration between modules, but the training needs to be improved

We mainly use UiPath as our RPA platform. I have looked at several other solutions that include the bigger ones, Blue Prism, and Automation Anywhere. We have experience in developing bots in all three of these. It is difficult to move from UiPath to EdgeVerve when UiPath is so good at getting people in the door. They've got a great ecosystem and a great training model. Every other system is more challenging to use. To get an EdgeVerve license, for example, you need to have an NDA in place to use it. Blue Prism is even worse, although, with them, you just have to pay more money. By not democratizing the software and the way to utilize it, smaller companies like EdgeVerve and even Blue Prism, to a certain extent, have suffered in terms of growth. The three leaders at the top do a pretty good job. Outside of workflow, they do a pretty good job, and that's why the customers buy, so you have to be strong on those. As far as the tools are concerned, RPA is RPA, and everybody generally does it in the same way. What is probably going to start distinguishing between products is the use of AI. When AI really overtakes the selectors for RDA, robotic desktop automation, when you have to really rely on the backdrop of the DOM to get at the element, the use of AI and more efficient on-prem AI solutions is going to really make that a better experience. The on-premises distinction is important because there's latency when you hit the cloud. Ultimately, to me, the toolsets are all the same. Drag and drop, the ability to create custom activities in terms of creating your libraries, and that kind of thing, they're all there. This past year has been ridiculous in terms of how all of the tools have progressed. What they were a year ago versus what they are today, is a considerable and significant difference. For example, I have totally redesigned my solutions and architectures over the past year.

Automation has streamlined approvals and connected email, chat, and data workflows in real time

For improvement, I think there should be version control like Git. While Microsoft Power Automate can improve in debugging and error visibility, it is quite good given the amount of its use and the complexity of the tasks we want it to handle. We utilize Microsoft Power Automate for small tasks, and it is ideal for handling collaborative efforts or tasks connected to Microsoft 365 products. I chose that rating because it cannot handle a lot of complex tasks, which makes it difficult to manage larger tasks. It excels in small tasks, and I think Microsoft can develop this better. While it is already good for small tasks, there could be something offered like Microsoft Power Automate Plus.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has helped us look at how our processes are organized."

"If we count the integrations that we have done with Appian, which is where a lot of our savings is from, we are well over a million dollars in savings."

"The tool feature I found the most valuable is Metabot, as we can include the DLLs that are proprietary written code in .NET or other technologies."

"The biggest benefit of Automation Anywhere is that it makes our processes error-free. Accuracy is how you build efficiency within the system and increase productivity."

"It helps improve performance and helps companies save time and money."

"The best feature is its ability to combine Automation Anywhere with AI to build intelligent bots."

"Automation Anywhere RPA has enabled a lot of our employees to have their valuable time freed up to do other things, ranging from the Treasury department, the Revenue department, General and Cost Accounting."

"The most valuable feature is the task bots because we found that cognitive functionality can be improvised."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"I would say that the cross-integration between different modules, such as between the OCR, RPA, and ML, is the most valuable feature."

"EdgeVerve is a bit like Appian, where they have full suites that have a great deal of functionality."

"Triggering and scheduling were pretty good. There was no real commitment with WinAutomation because the licensing was very fair and you could trigger bots very easily."

"It works best to build cloud flows."

"It is basically free for me because it comes with my Office 365 subscription. The main feature is that there is abundant learning material on platforms like YouTube. You can find information about whatever you want to be done in Spanish or English without a problem. It is very easy to learn. Users can start using it on their own without any former training, which is something I like about this solution."

"The solution is also excellent for businesses due to the fact that it's totally based on the cloud."

"Workflow management is what clients select the most. It is very intuitive and pretty much drag-and-drop, so we can create escalation, decision flows, and if-else conditions pretty much by dragging and dropping boxes. Even someone who is not technical can develop a workflow for the business."

"During the last year, there have been many improvements from Microsoft that have taken it to the next level and can compete with UiPath and Automation Anywhere."

"The ease of use and the integration with some of the existing products that we have would be its main takeouts."

"The best features of Microsoft Power Automate are its ability to switch from one app to another without user interaction, so you can automate a task, take data from one source, process it, and then output it in another format or have it as an input for another app, and also to transform data and have that done with minimal human interaction."

More Microsoft Power Automate pros

Cons

"While the ease of use for non-tech users is good, it could be improved."

"Currently, there are some vulnerabilities in security that need attention in Automation Anywhere."

"In A2019 it does not display the exact running status, but rather it displays the previous one."

"Automation with bots runs fine only if it is an attended bot. With unattended bots, the bots run only 25 to 30 percent of the time."

"I had an issue lasting for the better part of three years, and it was quite severe."

"The analytical dashboard in the Control Room could use some improvement."

"With Automation Anywhere, it took us a bit of time to stand it up initially. We tried to do it in a virtual environment, which caused us a bit of headache. It could have been smoother in this aspect."

"It would be better to make it more user-friendly so that individuals with no experience can pick it up pretty quickly."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Better training and better accessibility of the tools are the things that need to be improved."

"There is an RPA feature gap between this solution and other more mature products."

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

"The OCR part or scanning of documents is missing."

"Execution of workflows could be improved."

"It should work better for Angular websites, as it has a lot of problems."

"It would be good to have some kind of on-premises solution for BPMN users, but I don't think Microsoft will ever go back to the on-premises solution. They all train their clients to use their online services. It is easy, but it doesn't follow the industry-wide standards. I can only use the processes that Microsoft gives us. I can't map a business process by using other standards or notations, such as Business Process Management (BPM). I have to use whatever Microsoft gives us. I would like to have support for some standards because if we decide to use another BPM tomorrow, we will have to remap everything in notation to transfer from this solution. This is the only block or obstacle that I see in using this solution. It is closed in its infrastructure."

"The solution could have more integration with different platforms."

"They need to come up with a little more on AI and precision discovery path to be able to record the processes."

More Microsoft Power Automate cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They sell it by license, but if they could charge by case or by interaction, that might be better. Right now, it's expensive when you want to scale or use them for simple processes."

"We would like them to change the license model of charging per bot."

"The cloud-based version comes at an increased cost, although our clients are happy with the new features and have not complained about the pricing."

"The starting price, which is a one-off fee is a bit high and this may deter mid and small-sized companies from acquiring and decide to shun the platform."

"I do not know the price, but I am told that it is cheaper than UiPath."

"I don't know exactly what the pricing schemes are for the product as this type of negotiation is not my responsibility, but I think the basic pricing comes to $15,000."

"The Automation Anywhere license is affordable and not complex."

"I am not responsible for the pricing part, but I know the pricing is competitive compared to other tools."

Information not available

"Microsoft Power Automate is expensive. The full license is quite expensive."

"The price is right. If you have Office 365 It's included."

"Licensing is on an annual basis."

"There should be increased transparency about which features attend the pricing."

"Power Automate is a much less expensive product than the competition."

"The cost to use Microsoft Power Automate is approximately $15 per user per month, for the basic plan. However, the solution comes free with the Microsoft 365 Suite."

"With our Microsoft Office 365 license, we are able to use Microsoft Power Automate."

"This solution is bundled with our Office 365, so there is no additional licensing fee."
