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.

Good data ingestion and classification capabilities, supports various media types and formats, and the interface is easy to use
Currently, we're still using version 2-7-2, and now they're about to do the beta release on their version 2021. In this coming version, we expect that some of our issues will be fixed. We've had challenges in classification tasks where similar documents were flagged as multiple matches. The system would identify them and say, "Hey, I think I've got multiple matches. It could either be this one or that one." Because of that, it required us to instruct the system to either leave it unclassified, or we had to halt the process for somebody to look at it. With the new version for 2021, they have changed the paradigm. As it is now, we're using something called a form type, where pages within the document are referenced using a specific page number. For example, in a ten-page document, you might refer to information specifically on the first or fifth page. In the new paradigm, there is a first, middle, and last page concept, as opposed to having the different form types with all of the different pages. What they're telling me is that it's going to make the classification more accurate. Just because the first page of two different documents looks the same, they will not be considered duplicates. Having multiple points of reference will now allow it to better distinguish them. The other area we have had challenges with is table extractions, where if the data headers were not defined, or the tables did not have descriptions for the columns. My understanding is that in the 2021 version, they've now shown that they're handling that. Again, we don't have it and haven't been able to test it, but it's coming. Technical support is definitely an area that they need improvement in, in terms of the front-line individuals.

Automation has transformed complex sales order tables into accurate data for our ERP
I have observed that while training Nanonets, we must provide a larger number of examples or documents. When I trained the model, it usually requested around 50 documents as a dataset to train the model. I found this very difficult because business users are not very helpful in providing such a large number of documents; we usually have around two, three, or five. It would be helpful if we could start training the model with limited datasets and then have an option to always improve the model by providing more datasets as we progress through the journey, but it should not be a blocker at the first stage where you need to provide at least 50 samples for a model to train.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Automation Anywhere has helped my company with APIs. We are currently in a project to create APIs for our core banking service and other transactional systems, migrating from another integration technology to API."
"The immediate impact is administrative tasks which were traditionally done manually are now being done by robots. This reduces the workload for people."
"This solution allows for the letter generation to take place within seconds, improving the experience for the employees."
"The Visual Studio integration is smooth and user-friendly."
"We are able to create robotic tasks in a short time."
"We offer them a cost and time-effective solution for repeated and time-consuming processes, which surely help a lot in terms of improving quality."
"We used to do many daily routine checks and jobs. We have implemented the automation knowledge which resulted in good productivity, time-saving, and extra efforts being reduced."
"Implementation of Automation Anywhere (AA) allows us to automate business processes and has brought productivity gains, error reduction, and speed of execution in multiple HR and Finance operations."
"Lexicons where the key vocabulary can be inputted it is very helpful."
"With Grooper, the old archive of information can be obtained with the models we built."
"Grooper processes difficult sorts of data and unstructured or semi-structured content very well. It's probably one of the better solutions I've seen compared to other solutions I've seen out there. It does a lot more things like segmentation extraction. It does it a lot better. Grooper has more focus on these types of freeform documents where other solutions are very generic and this is a little more elaborate in what they've done. I think they take it to the next level of extracting freeform data."
"There are many options and customizations that you can make to each individual extractor that allows you to tweak it for exactly what you need."
"In certain types of jobs, I would estimate that using Grooper saves us 70% of the time it normally takes to complete it."
"Using Grooper has sped up our data entry process between two and eight times, depending on the exact process."
"The user interface is easy to use, and the flexibility is noteworthy."
"So now we're doing stuff that takes literally minutes, or even sometimes seconds, and we've reduced the labor by a hundredfold."
"Nanonets has positively impacted my organization by providing a solution that works for us as developers."
"The best features Nanonets offers include their workflow and OCR detection capabilities, which have positively impacted my organization by helping detect edge cases in OCR that require some post-processing or pre-processing and have improved efficiency and reduced errors."
 

Cons

"We have used the technical support. I am quite unhappy with the support part. The higher priority tickets are not getting resolved within the SLA. Higher priority tickets for production issues should be looked into immediately. However, until they get escalated, tickets are not receiving higher priority. I would like to see this improve."
"I would like the ability to extract the code. You can go line by line, then open up each line of code and dig into the details, but it would be nice to extract all of the lines of code and all of the details into a document so we could read through everything. Right now, there is no way to really consume all of the code at once, except line by line, which can be fairly time consuming if we don't really know what we are looking for."
"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."
"Though the courses in the certification's learning hub are great and awesome, there is some more space for adding more explained contents."
"The AA portal should not give us pop-ups every time a bot agent is updated."
"Product support for our customers needs improvement. They should increase the support personnel."
"I need high value products to be created, so I need integration with other solutions. Machine learning and AI need to be integrated with Automation Anywhere. While IQ Bot is a good beginning, our company does not work with manual paperwork since we are already digital. We would like to see more integration with cognitive tools going forward."
"We've struggled with some of the new features Automation Anywhere added in the latest version. For example, they added a new OpenAI package, but it took a while for me to find it in the actions menu."
"Grooper is new. It's new beta stuff, so we've had some issues, but that's understandable. Getting the beta product to more of a true release is where it needs improvement. I'm going through training now, so it's hard to judge what they have and don't have until I get through that training. Training is the main thing for me because I'm trying to learn and take things I've learned from other products and try to transfer that knowledge to this one."
"They should have more sub-extractors or exclusion extractors so that the user does not have to make a parent data type."
"If Grooper could "sense" important fields on the document and auto-build extractors for them, that'd be really cool."
"Technical support is definitely an area that they need improvement in, in terms of the front-line individuals."
"Grooper is new. It's new beta stuff, so we've had some issues, but that's understandable."
"There are few bugs that my superior has posted in the Grooper exchange that concerned errors with the OCR."
"I have observed that while training Nanonets, we must provide a larger number of examples or documents."
"I think Nanonets can be improved as the pricing seems to be a bit high, which is one of the things they should improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The setup and licensing cost is affordable, and it is not exaggerated like UiPath."
"I am not sure about the costs, but two Bot Runners and four Bot Creators may cost approximately 1CR."
"We were required to purchase licenses and bot runners, which determined the permissible run times for the bots."
"It is reasonable and affordable. If you consider the tasks that we can get done using this, the pricing is reasonable and affordable."
"Automation Anywhere University is pretty good. They make it available free for everyone."
"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."
"The certifications are free of cost."
"We would like them to change the license model of charging per bot."
"Overall, their pricing is higher than the competitors, but they offer functionality that is otherwise not available."
"Know how many pages you will be needing to process, as the pricing is based on that."
