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.

Assistant Manager at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Automation has transformed payables and receivables but still requires manual handling of exceptions

A specific example of a test case that failed during UAT for HighRadius Accounts Payable relates to the cash applications process when receiving payments from customers. We have two types of customer or vendor payments: miscellaneous payments and customer or vendor direct payments. Direct payments need to be applied to customer or vendor invoices, and those cases passed as expected. However, miscellaneous payments need to be posted to the journal entry rather than customer or vendor invoices. HighRadius Accounts Payable lacks the capability to handle these cases, so manual intervention is needed for them. HighRadius Accounts Payable can be improved in cases where once payments are loaded into the system, users can easily filter exceptions where the system is unable to perform the work. Users can then focus on those cases, perform cross-checks and double-checks, and verify that the payments are applied correctly. This method would improve accounts payable processes. An improvement is needed when we receive payments that need to be tagged to multiple vendors or multiple customers. We can add multiple vendors or customers in one instance, but if we receive the same scenario in the future, we must add multiple vendors and customers into HighRadius again. This process needs improvement from HighRadius.

Sage Intacct Technical Consultant at a manufacturing company with 11-50 employees

Has reduced manual effort through customization and streamlined API-based integrations

The best features Sage Intacct offers include the import functionality, support for customization, and the platform that allows me to modify whatever I want. The triggers and reports are built very well and user-friendly, so I can modify this, and this is one of the best features it provides. The import functionality helps because once I download the template from Sage Intacct, I can fill out the specific columns with the data that I need to import into the system, and it will do the work instead of adding those details manually. The platform services allow me to add functionalities such as sending an email once I generate any AP bill or approve vendors. Additionally, I can call external API services or Sage Intacct API to validate those fields, which is good for users. Sage Intacct has positively impacted my organization through improved collaboration and saved time. I can import data easily, and since it is user-friendly, I encounter fewer errors. For example, the work I used to do in one or two days now gets completed in one or two hours.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The saving of efforts within my project has been to the tune of 20% as of now and I am sure that it will improve as we explore the tool more and automate many more processes."

"The built-in features, such as the connector builder and AI development tools, are easily accessible, keeping the software up-to-date."

"It frees individuals up from mundane tasks so they can concentrate on being more active and creative other things that they need to do."

"Automation has been playing a significant role in every aspect of our institution."

"The most valuable feature is that it is intuitive. It is designed so business users can use it with a drag and drop functionality to develop automation of business processes. Since they are the experts on business processes, there are probably the best ones to create the automation."

"We have more than 50 bots in the company, the FTE and ROI are very good, and in the future we have many projects in pipeline that we are about to implement, so definitely there is a good ROI and FTE savings for us."

"The most valuable feature of Automation Anywhere is the ease with which it integrates with our existing APIs."

"We have seen increased productivity, because what used to take about two days to finish with laymen doing computer work, a bot can finish within a seven to eight hour time frame, meaning we are removing a lot of man-hours."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"HighRadius Accounts Payable has positively impacted my organization mainly through cost efficiency, as the time for doing work from external sources was reduced drastically and the costs were also reduced, allowing the creation of new opportunities in the company, as some positions that were previously separated to do regular tasks became more interactive."

"We have increased collections by more than 20 to 30 percent due to using HighRadius Accounts Payable, and regarding the percentage of hours, we have saved about one to two hours per week due to this tool."

"HighRadius Accounts Payable has significantly reduced the manual work and workload we have had because we used to manually reconcile cash, with accountants applying receipts manually, and that process has been largely eliminated due to automation, providing us with room to carry out other value-adding processes."

"HighRadius Accounts Payable has positively impacted our organization, as we reduced 8 to 9 team members because the system can automatically handle accounts receivable and accounts payable processes, saving time and reducing the need for human intervention to only exception cases."

"Since switching to HighRadius Accounts Payable, I can share that before, we could only process 30 items in Siebel because of the lags, but in HighRadius Accounts Payable, we can process 60 items or deduction claims."

"Its custom reports feature is also noteworthy, as it provides flexibility for users to create their reports, tailored to their specific areas of expertise."

"Sage Intacct has positively impacted my organization by bringing clarity with reporting, providing opportunities for internal automation."

"Sage Intacct, a full-fledged ERP, can handle complexity that smaller accounting software cannot handle."

"The most significant advantage of this solution is its pure cloud-based nature."

"Sage Intacct has positively impacted my organization by providing the opportunity to delete or edit any incorrect journal entry at the same time or in the prior or post-period after posting that particular entry."

"I would strongly recommend any entity that has a need for software that is easily implementable and that's already structured to use the services."

"Sage Intacct has positively impacted our organization by being flexible and easy to use; everyone working on Sage Intacct has an accounting background, and they are able to use it with minimal training because of its user-friendly interface."

"The accuracy of accounting has improved by nearly 95%, and we save about three days of manual effort to prepare financial statements."

More Sage Intacct pros

Cons

"Debugging can be particularly tricky; identifying the exact reasons for bot failures can be time-consuming."

"We're in a digital world where everything's evolving. AI is coming out, so just looking at keeping moving, introducing new innovations into the product, nothing specific. The Automation Anywhere teams seem to know what the customers want."

"Automation Anywhere is a tool. It is not able to go ahead and extract the hand-written documents. Most of the automation tools that we have in the market are not able to get an accuracy of close to 80 to 90 percent on hand-written documents. So, I'm eagerly looking at a release from Automation Anywhere, wherein they could plug in an LP or look at some sort of a platform which could convert hand-written documents into a readable format. If they could bring in they own platform, this would make a big in-roads for the entire automation industry."

"Automation Anywhere is headed in the right direction but they still have a good way to go."

"My experience has been that if the person who codes the bot is not very well-trained, then they might create unstable bots. So, it's not the platform. It is just how somebody has coded the bots which can bring lot of instability to them. I recommend that when you are using a coder that the person well-trained and have a good amount of experience already working on bots. They shouldn't be newbie or beginner who comes in to code because that will impact the quality of the code itself."

"I would like to see a bot button."

"Also, we're seemingly plagued with certain technological issues or bugs."

"AA has many features but the issue is with the loss of overhead on computing resources. For example, if the bot is encrypted, the bot should decrypt it first then act accordingly. If there are issues with the logic in the bot, there will be a lot of computer memory overload. There should be an additional feature for cloud functionality."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Customer support is not good; initially, we had support directed to Poland, but we recently moved to the HighRadius Accounts Payable team, which is a bit better."

"I think HighRadius Accounts Payable can be improved in the cut-off time or the cut-off timing because I think they are linked to the SAP system, so we have a cut-off time in HighRadius Accounts Payable when clearing a deduction."

"If HighRadius Accounts Payable could utilize AI better, I would say that having communication with other systems like Microsoft or SAP would be beneficial."

"HighRadius Accounts Payable lacks the capability to handle miscellaneous payments that need to be posted to the journal entry rather than customer or vendor invoices, so manual intervention is needed for them."

"The change order process in Sage Intacct could be smoother and easier, and I believe the ability to perform lien waivers and invoices in bulk, as well as improvements in inventory management, could enhance the system."

"Customer support can be improved, as they sometimes respond with a delay. For instance, if I expect a response in two days, I receive it in four to five days."

"Sage Intacct is very strong overall, but if I had to suggest improvements, I would say the learning curve could be smoother for new users."

"I see room for improvement in Sage Intacct, specifically regarding reporting, as it should be more versatile with the data; more add-on data would provide many more options, especially since API calls can be quite difficult."

"It would be good if the training were perfect for all controllers, to teach them the basic tools and how to use everything in Sage Intacct."

"The consolidation module lacks several features in setup, including the inability to create different sub-level entities, and it is very rigid and not customizable for adding different entities under one book, so we are trying to create multiple books."

"If I need to pay a bill, I do not have the option of updating multiple or thousands of bills at once; I have to manually mark each bill as paid, which is quite a headache."

"I believe data migration could be improved in Sage Intacct to save time and to minimize working with Excel when dealing with data migration."

More Sage Intacct cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Although the initial implementation cost of Automation Anywhere is relatively high compared to other options, its annual subscription cost is lower than UiPath's, which has the opposite pricing structure."

"The control room access gives the ability to create different roles, which helps when purchasing additional licensing."

"Automation Anywhere falls within a mid-range price point when compared to other RPA tools on the market."

"In terms of pricing, it's not at all cheap, and that's a concern. The licensing cost is very high. While I don't know the exact prices of other tools, Microsoft offers the lowest pricing for its RPA platform compared to UiPath and Automation Anywhere."

"Talk to your manager and try to procure an automation license for training. This will allow you to train people, so you can move to automation."

"Our annual licensing costs for the entire company are $100,000."

"It is expensive. Automation Anywhere has reduced the price slightly, as we have grown. However, the price is still excessive enough that we are engaged in PoCs on other tools."

"IQ Bots are very costly. It's not a sustainable bot for us as of now. We will look for better, alternate options for that."
