Featured Reviews

Nadeem K. - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
reviewer2728704 - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
HP
Senior Business Process Automation Engineer at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Automation has transformed document processing and frees teams to focus on higher‑value analysis
Sometimes, we encounter system errors that could be resolved via support, but connection issues are more frequent in enterprise applications. However, these can usually be solved by raising tickets if you are part of an enterprise, though we are not, which makes it somewhat challenging. It is vital to ensure the connections of UiPath Platform are maintained because it has a larger community. If UiPath Platform website included more features and documentation accessible easily, it would greatly enhance the experience. Instead of continually needing to raise support tickets, having a documentation hub where details can just be entered to retrieve required documents would be extremely beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Customers also are looking for the kinds of solutions that help enable their workforces to be more effective."
"If anyone is looking for an efficient automation tool, I definitely recommend Automation Anywhere because it is very helpful, even for non-technical people."
"Simply tagging variables used in the bot, can provide automated real-time dashboards that are presentable to management showing them a complete view of how the bots are performing."
"Bot Insights is the most valuable feature; we don't have to struggle with generating metrics around how the bots are performing, and this information coming out of Automation Anywhere is useful to us because of the way the metrics are generated, which inspires confidence in our customers."
"It is a great product."
"This solution has been great for our company in almost every way possible."
"By using its AI & ML capabilities, we have solved many problems for our clients."
"It has absolutely been worth it for us and has provided us with good value."
"The user interface is not complicated, even for new users. Two to three weeks is enough to get ahold of it."
"The tool follows a role-based working model to create things. It helps to track what others are doing with the system."
"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is more affordable than UiPath."
"Good email automation and XL automation."
"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 features of EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA that customers find most helpful include the easy understanding and good UI/UX."
"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."
"We're very, very happy with the product, it does exactly what we want it to do, and it allows us to sell UiPath, or sell RPA in the way that we want to."
"We use UiPath to test automation for asset management, wherein we found it can help us to reduce the time and increase data accuracy."
"We have eliminated human errors and saved our organization time."
"It is easy to use as drag-and-drop features are present."
"It's very easy to adapt to and it's very user-friendly and robust at the same time. You don't need to have a lot of technical knowledge to use UiPath. Overall, it's a very good tool for tackling simple and very complicated business processes."
"Using UiPath, we automated our internal repetitive process which eliminates the human errors and duplicates."
"The robots that I have developed can take a process that is normally very complicated and simplify it."
"Each solution has its pros, but in terms of speed to market, and improving the quality, the partner network, the product suite, and the product roadmap itself, UiPath is a few years ahead of the rest."
 

Cons

"My experience has been that if the person who codes the bot is not very well-trained, then they might create unstable bots."
"From my experience, for a normal automation-related task, Automation Anywhere is a good tool, but currently the world is moving toward AI, Gen-AI, and code-based agents; I feel that Automation Anywhere is lagging behind in the AI realm."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved by reducing the time of the processes and enhancing the efficiency of people."
"The regional distribution in Turkey can be improved."
"The initial setup is difficult because Automation Anywhere does not have a GitHub integration. They need to build a patch for that."
"IQ Bot is useful but the price is not friendly."
"I don't use the technical support a lot. It feels like a lot of time that they will ask us to check the user manual."
"There should be more available Data Analytics and more AI Front and Deep Learn concepts."
"Lacks integration with third party tools."
"We provide them with consulting and strategy advisory services, but we have never recommended any organization to use EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA."
"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."
"The solution could be improved if it provided integration with third party tools like Python, native integration, which is very important."
"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 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."
"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 pricing could be more transparent. Overall, I think the pricing is fine, but they keep changing it. It should be more structured. They don't have to tell us what their pricing is, but they should publish how the product is broken down."
"Lack of macOS support this far into the project lifecycle is distressing."
"The Orchestrator is in drastic need of improvement. Three or four years ago, the Orchestrator UI was very simple and comfortable to use but now, they have added so many features that it is difficult for new users to quickly understand it."
"The speed could be improved."
"I chose a seven because it has not fully proven itself to automate the entire AP process, as there are still many manual touches and interventions needed."
"On a scale from one to five where one is not stable and five is very stable, I would rate the stability of UiPath platform as a three."
"I think the AI question is being raised everywhere, and there certainly needs to be a lot more intelligence involved in that."
"They need to enhance their CI/CD capabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's cheaper than other similar solutions."
"Based on what I've heard, it's costly, but I don't know much about its pricing."
"Automation Anywhere is expensive."
"The pricing that we received from Automation Anywhere in the beginning was very economical for us. We've seen a lot of benefit from what we spent to what we're receiving. From the beginning, it's been a very low-cost implementation for us."
"The pricing for Automation Anywhere is reasonable."
"When I started working on it, it was difficult to obtain a trial version (barrier to entry). Now, they have a Community Edition, which may make it easy to get started."
"The solution is costly and the licensing is very confusing."
"The pricing and licensing of Automation Anywhere plays an important rule in the Indian market because in the Indian market $10,000 USD is too much. Hence, the pricing tends to go down depending on the customer relationship with the partner: A starter pack is $10,000 and an enterprise pack is $100,000. If you go through an implementation partner, you can get good deals. They can save some money."
"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is cheaper compared to other RPA tools."
"The solution is affordable enough to get a good return on your investment."
"The Community Edition is free for everyone and you get all the features, but there is a limitation on the number of bots. The Enterprise Edition is a bit costly for the advanced features."
"I put the price as average; it's neither particularly expensive nor affordable."
"UiPath is somewhat expensive."
"It is not oversold. It does do what it was advertised to do."
"It is a bit expensive, but it is cheaper than Blue Prism. We have six robots in total. There are no other costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"At the company that I was with previously, we were paying $3,600 USD per bot. With the new company that I am at, because we're new and we don't have the size, we are paying $8,000 USD per bot."
"The pricing and licensing costs seem okay to me, although it is a little bit on the high side."
