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.

Customization and integration empower diverse AI applications
We are familiar with most Google Cloud services, particularly infrastructure services, storage, compute, AI tools, containerization, GCP containerization, and cloud SQL. We are familiar with approximately eighty percent of Google's services, primarily related to infrastructure, AI, containers, backup, storage, and compute. We are familiar with Gemini AI and Google Vertex AI, and we have completed some exercises and cases with our customers for Google AI. We use automation in machine learning. I work with a team where everyone has specific responsibilities. We have design and development processes in place. Based on my experience, I would rate Google Vertex AI a 9 out of 10.
NR
ERP recommendation specialist at a non-tech company with 1-10 employees
Automation has transformed complex workflows and has empowered non‑technical teams to build flows
Regarding improvements for n8n, I would highlight two areas. First, while there is a growing community, the ecosystem of pre-built nodes for niche or proprietary systems still lags behind some commercial competitors. I often have to build custom HTTP request nodes or create my own node packages, which is doable but adds to project timelines. Second, features for team collaboration and lifecycle management are still evolving. Moving workflows from development to staging to production can be a manual export-import process, and native Git integration and more robust user roles for larger client teams would be a game-changer. Regarding needed improvements, I believe much of the existing documentation is not peer-reviewed. There is definitely a big community, but if the documentation or tutorials were approved or at least had a badge from n8n, customers would feel that this meets the standards of n8n editors themselves, which would give more confidence in the flows.

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 feature, which was launched last year, is Automation Co-Pilot. Microsoft has a co-pilot, but it's only for Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint. But Automation Anywhere offers a co-pilot that is suitable for Salesforce, Genesys, Atlassian, and other contact center and standard applications. This is a game-changing feature for Automation Anywhere..."
"We've shifted platforms a couple of times, and Automation Anywhere is the one that stuck based on end-user experience, the ease of development, and trainability with the tool."
"It is very easy for anybody to learn."
"The most valuable feature is the SAP application and the DLLs that Automation Anywhere provides. These DLLs help automate the SAP application."
"Business analytics provides real-time data that's something other competing companies lack. It uses statistics and graphs to show the performance of the bots which processes are lagging behind and if you need to give priority to certain tasks."
"I like working with most of the commands in Automation Anywhere, such as object cloning commands. I like MetaBot for automating Citrix."
"Our organization used to have a process which took five business days to do: our monthly pricing update. This was a very manual process. Our very first bot built was to automate this process. Now, the bot runs in the background every month and the process takes less than a day to run."
"They have a credential vault, which is 256-bit encrypted. That is the highest security that can be provided when it comes to credential maintenance. With a credential vault, other than the user who is entering the password, no one else knows what the password is."
"Vertex comes with inbuilt integration with GCP for data storage."
"The most valuable features of the solution are that it is quite flexible, and some of the services are almost low-code, with no-code services, so it gives agents flexibility to build the use cases according to the operational needs."
"The most useful function of Google Vertex AI for me is the ease of integration, as we can easily create a prompt and integrate it into our current system."
"The most valuable feature we've found is the model garden, which allows us to deploy and use various models through the provided endpoints easily."
"We extensively utilize Google Cloud's Vertex AI platform for our machine learning workflows. Specifically, we leverage the IO branch for EDA data in Suresh Live Virtual, employing Forte IT for training machine learning models. The AI model registry in Vertex AI is crucial for cataloging and managing various versions of the models we develop. When it comes to deploying models, we rely on Google Cloud's AI Prediction service, seamlessly integrating it into our workflow for real-time predictions or streaming. For monitoring and tracking the outcomes of model development, we employ Vertex AI Monitoring, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the model's performance and results. This integrated approach within Vertex AI provides a unified platform for managing, deploying, and monitoring machine learning models efficiently."
"Google Vertex AI is an out-of-the-box and very easy-to-use solution."
"With just one single platform, Google Vertex AI platform, we can achieve everything; we need not switch over to multiple tools, multiple platforms, as everything can be accomplished through this one single platform for integration with existing workflows, systems, tools, and databases."
"It provides the most valuable external analytics."
"For lead generation, I gave all the contacts to n8n and made it write the email and automated the email sending workflow for lead generation, and the conversion rate was around 70%."
"The low-code interface and the quick code writing within n8n that we can do and utilize is very helpful; it brings in efficiency, better time to market, and actually helps us."
"n8n helps automate jobs that no one enjoys doing, which are very repetitive, and it saves time and money because it handles those boring tasks that can now be automated."
"One positive impact that n8n has had on my customers' organizations is significantly less hassle over SEO or reaching out to clients and scheduling meetings."
"The best feature of n8n, in my opinion, is its flexibility, self-hosting capability, and the ability to build complex workflows with full control."
"n8n has positively impacted my organization because we previously needed to write product descriptions manually for over 50,000 products on our website, so we created an automation that automatically writes all meta descriptions and titles, which significantly supports our growth and is very helpful and time-saving for us."
"n8n is pretty flexible when it comes to pricing, setup cost, and licensing when compared to other platforms such as Make and Zapier."
"My recommendation is to start with n8n if you have any need for automation or integration, especially if you value control, cost predictability, and technical transparency."
 

Cons

"Compared to other RPA tools, the UI of Automation Anywhere is not that great and is not that easy to pick up for people, which takes more time for a newbie."
"As of now IQ Bot only takes/fetches the record of the places that we have marked. e.g. Invoices fields that are dynamic in nature are very difficult to fetch the data from the scan copy. If this feature gets added, it will save a lot of time for developers."
"The solution could improve the integration with some web applications. It was difficult to manage them."
"A2019 should have more improvement for developers, as it was in v11.x."
"AA has many features but the issue is with the loss of overhead on computing resources."
"Many of our clients would want to see scalability in pricing, and while I could say cheaper, that's part of it."
"Automation Anywhere changed OCR features in A2019. My suggestion is to improve the OCR command scope and usability. We use OCR for PDF data extraction as we use in V. 11.x product."
"It would be great if they could do more third-party Salesforce integrations into the RPA side, which would be helpful."
"Both major systems, Azure and Google, are not yet stabilized, especially their customer support."
"We used AutoML feature for developing AI models automatically, but we are not comfortable with the performance of those models."
"I think the technical documentation is not readily available in the tool."
"I believe that Vertex AI is a robust platform, but its effectiveness depends significantly on the domain knowledge of the developer using it. While Vertex AI does offer support through the console UI in the Google Cloud environment, it is better suited for technical members who have a deeper understanding of machine learning concepts. The platform may be challenging for business process developers (BPDUs) who lack extensive technical knowledge, as it involves intricate customization and handling numerous parameters. Effectively utilizing Vertex AI requires not only familiarity with machine learning frameworks like TensorFlow or PyTorch but also a proficiency in Python programming. The complexity of these requirements might pose challenges for less technically oriented users, making it crucial to have a solid foundation in both machine learning principles and Python coding to extract the full value from Vertex AI. It would be beneficial to have a streamlined process where we can leverage the capabilities of Vertex AI directly through the BigQuery UI. This could involve functionalities such as creating machine learning models within the BigQuery UI, providing a more user-friendly and integrated experience. This would allow users to access and analyze data from BigQuery while simultaneously utilizing Vertex AI to build machine learning models, fostering a more cohesive and efficient workflow."
"The tool's documentation is not good. It is hard."
"Google can improve Google Vertex AI in terms of analysis and accuracy. When passing a very large context, instead of receiving vague responses, it would be better if the system could prompt users not to pass overly large prompts and provide clearer guidance on how to fine-tune Gemini for specific use cases."
"It takes a considerable amount of time to process, and I understand the technology behind why it takes this long, but this is something that could be reduced."
"Google Vertex AI is good in machine learning and AI, but it lacks optimization."
"They haven't fully helped tailor solutions for our needs."
"The localized implementation is a bit complex and we definitely need some developers involved within this process."
"What I would like for them to improve is to include more nodes and different service provider integrations, just the way Zapier does."
"However, I feel that for very complex production environments, it still requires considerable fine-tuning and knowledge, and sometimes it might not be fully ready to support large-scale implementations in production."
"I feel that n8n is more coding-oriented, as it presents everything in a JSON format. n8n needs to update some features and ensure that everything is user-friendly."
"Overall, n8n is a powerful tool, but there are a few areas where it could be improved."
"Currently, most products nowadays include walkthrough or guide videos, short videos of 20 to 30 seconds that inform about any particular button or action, which n8n product does not have."
"The setup of n8n is sometimes very complicated, especially with the HTTP node, which is complex to set up."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If we talk about the automation RPA. it definitely has worked very well for us. I'm talking about giving good savings, about more than 180 FTE savings, after implementing more than 200 plus bots. It has worked well. As an organization, it has supported us very well, and also for our customers."
"It's an ideal pricing model to customize the components based on everyone's needs."
"It's justified because we have saved quite a bit of money at the company and many manual hours. Overall, it justifies the cost."
"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."
"We would like to use Citrix going forward. We use Bot Runners to scale up, and it gets to be expensive. Using Citrix, it can mitigate costs."
"There is an annual subscription for Automation Anywhere."
"The pricing is a bit higher."
"Regarding the price, licensing, and maintenance, Automation Anywhere provides its customers with its best and affordable value."
"The Versa AI offers attractive pricing. With this pricing structure, I can leverage various opportunities to bring value to my business. It's a positive aspect worth considering."
"The price structure is very clear"
"The solution's pricing is moderate."
"I think almost every tool offers a decent discount. In terms of credits or other stuff, every cloud provider provides a good number of incentives to onboard new clients."
