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.

Ananya Bl

Data Analyst at Capgemini

Daily orchestration of complex ai workflows has boosted my research and automation capabilities

Orchestration primarily decides which agent handles which part of a task and manages errors, retries, and complete state while maintaining the workflow effectively. On the orchestration side, branching, looping, and human approvals support non-linear workflows in production environments with real-time access. Through refined and improved prompts, this helps in closing the loop with actual users. One unique feature that stood out is that every step in the workflow can pause or recover from failures. Instead of finishing the entire agent in one go, this approach is interesting because if there is a minor change in a previously completed step regarding the state, I can re-edit and restart from the beginning. This is truly impressive.

Hemanth Pagadala

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

"We've had many sit-down conversations with the Automation Anywhere team when we were testing out the document automation. We gave them feedback about potential enhancements, so when we launched our most recent document automation use case, the capabilities were already there. We didn't need to come up with a workaround or put the project on hold because the things we needed were unavailable. That commitment to customer success stands out because they know that without us, the product won't succeed."

"Recorders and Bot Insights are very valuable features."

"Simple processes such as tracking, logging, and data consolidation are now automated, which helps us focus more on doing tasks that are impactful and more important."

"Manual efforts have been reduced and the accuracy has increased. In the processes I have done, the accuracy has reached 100 percent, and manual load and time has been reduced."

"The most valuable feature is the power of AI Technologies involved in Automation Anywhere's IQBot - such as Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision, Fuzzy Logic, and Machine Learning."

"The solution is easy to learn and with it, it's easy to replicate knowledge."

"It helps with the speed on improving processes and the results of those processes."

"It's very easy to use and all of the employees can easily get involved in the process, whether they are a developer, support, or have an HR background."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"Glean Platform has positively impacted my organization by speeding up a lot of repetitive tasks and making it easier for people outside of support to understand what kind of issues impact the support groups."

"Glean Platform has positively impacted our organization, especially in terms of productivity for both us and our customers."

"The best features Glean Platform offers include the ability to create my own agents, for example, I created a self-service agent for my stakeholders, so rather than email me, I sent them a link to an agent where the agent asks them questions and drills down to exactly what they need, and then I get a qualified response from them."

"The best features Glean Platform offers are mostly the view, which I think is very good, and what I find most helpful about the view is that the user interface is very good, making it very easy to chat with the chatbot and get all the material that I want in the way that I need it."

"Glean Platform has increased productivity by at least one hundred hours per week for my organization."

"When I searched for internal information spread across different systems, Glean Platform did centralize and retrieve that data for me effectively, giving me eighty percent accuracy."

"The major impact that I have noticed is how business users are now being impacted and they are using the platform because they understand it easily."

"Life became so easy when we started using Glean Platform."

More Glean Platform pros

"For corporate tax accounting, we use UiPath to pull data from multiple sources (i.e. SAP, Vertex, etc), and then use multiple pivot tables in Excel."

"Just this year, we've processed close to 400,000 emails, which equates to about 6,000 hours of employees' time, so that's a huge savings right now, just processing emails."

"The Task Mining is one feature that is very helpful to any business analyst. I do business analysis, and the info that I produce goes to our UiPath team to develop automations."

"UiPath's complete package (Studio, Robot, and Orchestrator plus Kibana) improved our organization by saving time for the employees that are using attended robots and helping the organization implement other activities with the use of the unattended robots."

"The speed to market is amazing because an automation can go from the initial planning conversation to production in weeks."

"The most valuable feature is the fluidity of the products. When I want to use RPA, I can use RPA. When I want to do process mining, I can do process mining. Those are the two top that I typically use it for."

"Our goal across all use cases is to speed up operations with bots that work 24/7/365 so that staff can focus on other important work."

"It's helped us minimize our on-premises footprint."

More UiPath Platform pros

Cons

"It would be great if they could do more third-party Salesforce integrations into the RPA side, which would be helpful."

"New versions keep coming up. The challenge for us is to have the downtime to do the migrations. This could be improved upon. We would like fewer version changes and upgrades happening to the application. While the downtime is not that much, depending on the business processes, there are times few critical processes are running on a daily or hourly basis. We would expect the downtime to be even less for them."

"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."

"An additional feature we would like to see is the inclusion of a particular kind of scripting in the development environment itself."

"With the PDF command, you can only read structured data. If your data is in an unstructured format, there is no command for it in Automation Anywhere. Then, people need to use Python coding if their data is in unstructured format. Therefore, Automation Anywhere needs to improve in the PDF area."

"Sometimes I get challenges with the customer support team; when I contact them, they are sometimes busy, and I get delays in replies."

"I would like to have a bot as a service platform on AA Cloud. This would minimize the installation process, and we wouldn't need to have all the hardware to support the platform in-house."

"Automation Anywhere can also be improved in machine learning and artificial intelligence. It would make our lives easier."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Sometimes Glean Platform gets slowed down."

"I chose seven out of ten because if I could upload PDFs and have them analyzed, or have it integrate with my Gmail and help me go through my emails, that would be very useful, but I do not think it does that."

"Also, the latency that the platform offers is a little high right now; what I have noticed is that on a particular query, the user has to wait a long time in order to get responses."

"Currently, Glean Platform does not integrate with Teams, Microsoft-owned platforms."

"In workflow agents, I would prefer that we do not use AI in every step and instead we have a toggle button or something which can configure whether AI should be used in this specific search field or not, or in this specific node or not, because currently it's using AI in all nodes which sometimes messes up the output."

"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Glean Platform reveals limited options, and I wish there was more customization available."

"I tried pulling in an architecture diagram of a workflow, and it pulled in some other image instead."

"Glean Platform can implement more models. The NLP creation could be a little faster, and while debugging is amazing, the routing also needs to provide higher quality outputs sometimes rather than extensive searching."

More Glean Platform cons

"My opinion on how UiPath Platform can be improved is that I dislike cloud or web apps in general, so getting all of the cool cloud features for Studio Cloud into Studio Desktop would be my biggest priority, however, that's a personal vendetta against web applications."

"At the functional level, UiPath is almost perfect. The only area for improvement would be the ability to use code. In Blue Prism and other tools, we can write the code, whereas UiPath is drag-and-drop, so sometimes we have limitations when it comes to implementation."

"UiPath can improve its AS center region by expanding its reach and addressing technical difficulties in certain areas."

"I would like to see the replacement of VB.NET with some more popular programming language as the program's backbone."

"The UI and processes sometimes freeze, so it would be good to see some improvement there. The system configuration and internet speed also have some impact on this."

"The price always has room for improvement."

"I do not think about disadvantages right now, but you can say the only con is the price; it is costly compared to Power Automate, which is not much."

"I am looking forward to new cognitive and artificial intelligence capabilities."

More UiPath Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Time-wise: We have saved hundreds of thousands of hours."

"No one is balking at the cost. They are market rates and will change, but no one is saying, "That is ridiculous or impossible." They are saying, "Show me the ROI and prove that the cost is accurate.""

"Automation Anywhere is affordable."

"This is a comprehensive automation offering with a scalable architecture and flexible pricing models."

"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."

"It saves on the quality of work, because the quality can be bad when somebody's doing it. If a bot does the work, it's faster and comes with good quality. These are two important things along with the cost saving in the long run. That's where the value is."

"It's cheaper than other similar solutions."

"Automation Anywhere pricing and licensing are competitive compared to the other automation vendors."

Information not available

"The downside of UiPath is always the price because it's the most expensive platform. However, it is the fastest and most reliable."

"The pricing is okay, but I recommend to build a business case before going live. Ensure that you really use the license and building the robot makes sense. Try to think of multiple use cases, because one license can be used for several robots."

"I would rate the pricing as seven out of 10, where 10 is the most expensive. The pricing increased with the latest release. It used to be cheap. Now, it is expensive. However, it does come with supported features, which almost justify its cost."

"From what I know, UiPath's licensing has a reasonable cost."

"If you are a smaller organization, use the free community version of the software to get a feel for its features and abilities."

"There is always an opportunity to improve. They have been trying to improve pricing by consolidating some of these SKUs together. They are trying to bundle more capabilities with the same set of licenses, which is good. However, because things are always changing, it leads to some confusion. They can make it more streamlined and consistent."

"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."

"We are using the Community Edition. The cost is only that of the virtual machines. The pricing of the Enterprise Edition is a bit high."
