Venkat Sivaprakash

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.

Corporate Development Specialist at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Offers a user-friendly interface but lacks enterprise-level features

EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is not difficult to deploy and the process was fine. Concerning deployment time, it usually takes one or two days. It totally depends upon the number of use cases and the processes where we are implementing. It might take weeks as well, depending upon the process in which we are implementing.

Mohammed Zaman

Senior Lead Developer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees

It's easy to create Python libraries and custom scripts for a particular client and general use cases

We've had conversations with the head of Robocorp over Slack about things we want to improve. We want to introduce some packages, but the authentication tokens and many other things are not there. We can do it in Python, but the custom packages are unavailable. We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities. I don't know if they have updated the UI in the latest version, but they could improve that. The UI selector isn't that great. It would be nice to take elements from the console and customize parts. Everything is based on command lines, which I do not like. A flow chart with block items would be good for optimizing code. I would also like more support tools for developers so it's easier to understand when passing code to others.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I find Automation Anywhere (AA) to be really fast on the development side."

"We are automatizing redundant activities, releasing employees to do value-added activities."

"The most valuable features of this solution are its scalability, security using the credential vault, and ease of use for business."

"The bottom line is that it is extremely simple and developer-friendly."

"The ease of use is one of great assets for Automation Anywhere."

"We saw a 70 percent decrease in manual steps. If something took 10 steps to do, we are doing it in three steps today."

"Automation of such tasks helped in clearing the bandwidth of the users and requestors alike and saved a lot of to and fro just asking for the latest data."

"What I appreciate most about Automation Anywhere is the ease of use. Everything is easy to set up. I also appreciate the extensibility that it has."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"AssistEdge made it so that the reps didn't need to maneuver through 10 or 20 different systems. We tied all that together in the background, so the reps had a shared UI, and everything else happened in the background without their knowledge. When they were retrieving data, it was done in the background through automation and pulling up to that generic UI layer"

"The user interface is not complicated, even for new users. Two to three weeks is enough to get ahold of it."

"There are some typical features I like such as email automation, XL automation, some AI/ML capabilities that are evolving, but are not quite mature yet, and I like the website automation."

"The feature I like the most is the ability to capture elements easily, especially when automating web-based applications. Additionally, I find the SAP connectors to be quite beneficial."

"Good email automation and XL automation."

"The tool follows a role-based working model to create things. It helps to track what others are doing with the system."

"The features of EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA that customers find most helpful include the easy understanding and good UI/UX."

"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is more affordable than UiPath."

"I can use it as a library by importing Python scripts, allowing me to access its many features while working with coding."

"I like the fact that it's very fast. The processing speed is good, and that's what matters to me. I also like that we don't have to bother with the infrastructure setup. We don't have to care about the status of the data set, as I believe the local group will provide it. We don't care about the licensing model. We only have to care about how long we are using it."

"Robocorp is based on Python, so you can use Python scripts and create libraries for your use cases. Building libraries and custom scripts for a particular client and general use cases is easy. We can reuse those scripts for other clients, so we start seeing benefits quickly."

"Time complexity is reduced and the execution speed is much higher."

"The solution is based on Python which makes it very valuable."

"The process execution and all features are very good."

"As a developer, I found it easy to integrate third-party applications with Robocorp. I have previous experience with Selenium, and I found the Robocorp framework to be accessible because it uses Python and Selenium keywords."

"I have worked with UiPath and Automation Anywhere previously. Robocorp offers an improved development style and support as well as flexibility of its tools. You can easily develop custom libraries in Robocorp."

More Robocorp pros

Cons

"If the option were available to use the old generic-style variable type, it would be helpful."

"One aspect I don't appreciate about Automation Anywhere is the way variables are handled. Many things seem to become a string, which makes it hard to code and keep track of items when everything's a string."

"While the community provides a platform for interaction and resource sharing, not all training content aligns with the specific needs of developers."

"The version that I used (10.3) was not that stable. It easily crashed in-between processes."

"We had initial hiccups, like any new process. It took us six to eight months to sort the product out."

"Automation Anywhere is troublesome for some people because of the way it is organized."

"It takes a lot of time to deploy, and sometimes it fails after a timeout."

"Although Automation Anywhere is a GUI-based platform with drag-and-drop functionality, non-technical business users struggle to implement it due to the complexities of operationalizing automation within a business context."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"There should be more activities like extraction for reading or converting PDFs. There are fewer activities compared to other tools. There are no custom activities."

"We provide them with consulting and strategy advisory services, but we have never recommended any organization to use EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA."

"Lacks integration with third party tools."

"The solution could be improved if it provided integration with third party tools like Python, native integration, which is very important."

"In my opinion, areas for improvement in this solution lie in handling documentation, especially when dealing with data from various layouts or formats like scanned PDFs. Currently, new features are emerging in other tools, like generative AI, that could enhance these aspects."

"The tool's alternatives work on drag-and-drop functionality without creating custom code. We don't have an in-built queue system and use RabbitMQ for it. The solution also doesn't have a framework."

"AssistEdge isn't a simple tool like Blue Prism or other RPA solutions with configurable items that you can drag and drop. This involved a lot of hard coding, which posed two challenges. One, we did not have that skillset, so we depended on Infosys. Two, it's a beast to go back and update or make changes when things are hard coded because you can't just move those configurable items back around."

"The deployment process is complex and not straightforward, especially for legacy modernization."

"The platform's documentation could be better."

"We use the latest version of the process studio and it takes up a lot of CPU storage. In our case, this has been up to 14 GB of storage."

"Robocorp is still in development, so most of the keywords are a bit confusing. I have to alter lots of automation steps between processing and development. However, Selenium is due for an update soon, and Robcorp is addressing some of the limitations caused by the previous Selenium version."

"There are certain libraries in Python, such as those dealing with PDF automation and word files, that require the presence of certain external dependencies in the environment to be successfully used."

"They should fully develop Robocorp Studio because it would attract a lot of people to the Robocorp platform."

"I don't like the complexity of deployment."

"The standard libraries in Robocorp should be more advanced."

More Robocorp cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"I don't agree with the IQ Bot licensing costs, which depends on the consumption of the document rather than per bot or user. This is confusing for me, because most of the cases for us in a possible future scenario, there would be a lot of invalid data to be scanned to get to real data. E.g., we would have to supply approximately 100 pages of scanned data to extract two pages of original data. In these type of cases, the IQ Bot might be a costly venture."

"The product starts at $10,000 and then it's up to you regarding how much you can consume."

"The enterprise version is expensive for small businesses and individual users."

"In terms of pricing, it's not at all cheap, and that's a concern. The licensing cost is very high. While I don't know the exact prices of other tools, Microsoft offers the lowest pricing for its RPA platform compared to UiPath and Automation Anywhere."

"We're just starting to renew our license, and we were quoted $115,000 without the IQ Bot. The IQ Bot is another $30,000. This is with very limited pages, as we go through our first projects. The majority of the cost was for ten days of onsite training."

"If you are looking into Automation Anywhere, get the Community Edition and play with it."

"From my experience, I can say that the initial setup cost is easily recovered over a period of time once the bots start running in production."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is cheaper compared to other RPA tools."

"It's a cost-effective solution."

"The product has good pricing."

"The solution is a very affordable price."

"In terms of licenses, there is a return on investment in that area."

"The pricing is fine."

"The price is cheaper than other competitors. I would rate the cost as one out of five."

"You don't have to pay for the license. You have to pay for the time you use it."

"Robocorp is much better in terms of pricing compared to UiPath."
