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.

Automated invoice conciliation has reduced manual checks and now delivers accurate OCR data
The best features Nanonets offers are OCR and integrations. These features have reduced manual efforts significantly. Currently, manual checking of data between the database and invoices is no longer necessary, as AI is now performing that work. Nanonets is an AI OCR model that I trained to deliver purposeful output. As an AI model, I can briefly describe and extract data from documents. Nanonets is primarily focused on documents, allowing me to extract data, compare it, and it is also useful for handwritten documents. It delivers output that is 99% accurate for handwritten documents as well. I consider Nanonets a good tool that I have worked with, and I have worked on its integration using Python.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has helped us increase productivity."
"This is a great platform, and we are implementing the logic into the bots that they are using to automate."
"It most benefitted us in converting daily routine tasks into automated processes at minimal cost with available infrastructure."
"So far, we have seen that a valuable feature of Automation Anywhere is the ease of integrating it with multiple systems. It can very easily integrate with an environment of an organization. It helps in a quick go to access and implementation. You don't have to spend days implementing Automation Anywhere software. You can quickly go drag and drop and do an ease of configuration. You can actually get your bot up and running very fast, which is one important advantage."
"Automation Anywhere has helped our customers' organizations speed up their processes and reduce the workload for their staff."
"The character extraction capability of IQ Bot is much, much better than the other OCR (Optical Character Recognition) engines that you have in the market today."
"The ROI is very good because the output is very accurate and the speed is very fast."
"The MetaBot is a very good feature that allows me to do things that were not available in earlier versions."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"With Grooper, the old archive of information can be obtained with the models we built."
"Lexicons where the key vocabulary can be inputted it is very helpful."
"Using Grooper has sped up our data entry process between two and eight times, depending on the exact process."
"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."
"The accuracy percentage of Nanonets was around 92-93%, which has had a high impact because it has reduced approximately 9.2 FTEs in manual efforts."
 

Cons

"Version 11 is a bit heavy. At times, it takes a toll on the computing resources."
"When it comes to Citrix automation, AA should improve or add more features in such a way that all the commands should work when automating a Citrix application."
"The cost of this solution can be improved."
"We had several issues when trying to connect the different components, due to our firewalls. They were eventually solved by our internal IT and the AA technical team."
"The accuracy in Web Recorder needs to be improved, defective outputs found most of the time (not sure if is a website side issue)."
"The vendor should increase the training and other engagements with users before they acquire the platform, as this will simplify its usage further and ensure that there no hindrances in using the platform."
"There are improvements needed in error handling processes, as currently, they rely on start and end error commands."
"Integration with other platforms may prove to be very interesting for us and others."
"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."
"Grooper is new. It's new beta stuff, so we've had some issues, but that's understandable."
"They should have more sub-extractors or exclusion extractors so that the user does not have to make a parent data type."
"Technical support is definitely an area that they need improvement in, in terms of the front-line individuals."
"If Grooper could "sense" important fields on the document and auto-build extractors for them, that'd be really cool."
"There are few bugs that my superior has posted in the Grooper exchange that concerned errors with the OCR."
"I think Nanonets can be improved as the pricing seems to be a bit high, which is one of the things they should improve."
"Nanonets can be improved with a larger number of samples and test scenarios."
"I have observed that while training Nanonets, we must provide a larger number of examples or documents."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The current pricing for Automation Anywhere seems a little higher compared to competitors Power Automate or UiPath. Automation Anywhere is perceived as pricey due to the support model charges ranging from 20% to 30% based on the plans."
"Additional costs will be for the machines and the number of machines that you are using. You can deploy virtually as well as on physical machines. In both the situations, you do need to allocate a certain budget for securing the machines and where the software will be installed and running. The machines cannot be used for anything else, because only a certain bot can run at a certain time. You need to be very particular about your scheduling of running the bots, and while the bot is running nobody can use the machine. You cannot have an agent working on a machine and the bot running in the background. It has to be completely dedicated. Then there are the network bandwidth requirements and space requirements, which are additional costs apart from the licensing and software costs. The developer is also going to charge you for their coding time too."
"Cost-wise, it is fine. A lot of medium businesses prefer Automation Anywhere. The development cost is also lower."
"As far as costs, it depends on your use. We started with a basic department pack, which is over 10K. The additional costs depend on the scale of the engagement and how it pans out. We customize to our needs on the go."
"Automation Anywhere is expensive, making it suitable only for enterprise organizations."
"The cost can be reduced a little for users."
"The cost for scalability is much cheaper than developing a new system."
"The pricing for Automation Anywhere is reasonable."
"Know how many pages you will be needing to process, as the pricing is based on that."
"Overall, their pricing is higher than the competitors, but they offer functionality that is otherwise not available."
