Venkat Sivaprakash - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Works at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
A scalable solution which is easy to install and use
I do not use the solution personally as I am not the end-user. It is merely one of the solutions that we offer to our customers. We act as consultants, solution providers. We have around 60 customers who are using the solution. I would, for sure, recommend the solution to others. I consider the profile of the project to be quite good at the moment. I rate Another Monday as a nine out of ten.
Arijit-Ghosh - PeerSpot reviewer
Intelligent Automation SME at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Cloud platform orchestrates business processes with AI capabilities
I find the capabilities that a normal orchestrator should have to be valuable in WorkFusion. The WorkFusion 10 cloud-based platform is different from the earlier on-prem version, WorkFusion 9. The platform now includes auto machine learning and AI capabilities. We haven't used these extensively, but they are a nice feature they are working on. The platform remains stable with well-designed processes, despite being a complex and technical tool.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"By combining Automation Anywhere and Appian together, we have been able to build a bot that works with Appian workflows to manage all our employees."
"Automation Anywhere's error handling is its most valuable feature. It sends you an email when there's an error and helps you find the cause quickly. It walks you through exactly how you should handle it."
"It's a great product, timely support, and guidance."
"It has provided our organization a lot of benefits, as we have reduced our headcount, approximately 200 to 300 employees, by eliminating manual, repetitive work and providing profit to the business."
"It is also easy to design and implement, even for business users who don't have technical skills. A little bit of training is required, about five to seven days, and then they can start. The learning curve is low."
"AA has improved our efficiency and saved on manual hours because no manual interaction is required."
"We have automated over 2000 man-hours."
"One of our customers here in the Middle East has saved around 10,000 man-hours for a telecom company with the help of 50 to 60 robots initially, and now the same company is using around 4,000 robots now."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"The initial setup is very quick."
"If you compare it to its competitors in the market, it is more Java-native."
"In our opinion this group are the leaders in providing RPA solutions."
"In terms of stability, it's quite good. It's an internal IP product."
"The most valuable features are the recorder because it's user-friendly and the integration with other tools Excel."
"It's a pretty robust product; it comes packaged with ELK Stack, Elasticsearch, Kibana, and Logstash, and it has a lot of monitoring capabilities that we're taking advantage of."
"The dashboard is the solution's most valuable feature; when clients want to look at the data it's very easy for them to do so, and the dashboard for the IT manager is very useful if there are issues and to create and follow processes."
"WorkFusion helps us in automating our business processes, so it helps in many ways, including lowering the cost of delivery, reducing the cost of operations by employing fewer people, speeding up business processes, and improving employee morale, as people do not have to do repetitive work anymore."
"We can see that its competitive ability is quite good."
 

Cons

"There's potential for Automation Anywhere to integrate conversational types of tools and AI into their tool set, which would be really valuable."
"The initial setup was not that great. The road was very up and down. We struggled. A lot of the features were not compatible with applications which we are using. That was the reason. This was the initial days, we are talking about 2016 to 2017. The buzz was not as much as we are having now."
"Automation Anywhere could use to be more stabilized."
"While we have been developing over time, there have been issues with stability."
"Automation Anywhere is unable to connect to the database directly."
"I would suggest going with Microsoft Power Automate rather than Automation Anywhere because Power Automate's cloud flow is easier to use."
"Security needs improvement."
"Getting buy-in was a major challenge because of the various people not aware of the technologies moving and getting buy-in from top management is a challenge."
"The solution should come with language customization, which would simplify its use for our customers."
"The express version does not do API calls and the Enterprise version does not do codeless coding."
"One thing we didn't like was their OCR solution. We felt it's somewhat inefficient."
"I would like it if they provided a more detailed roadmap in terms of where they are going with the product. As we are trying to make decisions about the things that we are going to do to try to augment our capabilities, we could know whether they are thinking about the same things or not."
"This is an expensive solution. They have a very expensive license compared to any other automation tool."
"If we're talking from a developer perspective, the task of actually building automation is not ideal. That's not their strong side."
"Stability can be improved, especially when it comes to memory."
"There could be better version control through their web platform. That is something that could be improved on. Integration from the IDE, e.g., from WorkFusion Studio directly into Control Tower, would be nice to have too."
"Machine learning models for document-heavy processes have room for improvement because they require significant effort to train and update."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have saved time and money using this solution."
"We have purchased licenses, but are trying to obtain more bot programmer licenses."
"It's very good in terms of cost and pricing."
"Licensing costs range from $50,000 to $200,000."
"There may be room for the product to be more competitively priced to excel in the market."
"It's a bit expensive compared to other RPA tools on the market."
"It is not cheap, with costs ranging between 700 to 800 dollars per month. While Power Automate is cheaper at 15 dollars per month, Automation Anywhere offers superior features, user-friendliness, and smoothness."
"I don't agree with the IQ Bot licensing costs, which depends on the consumption of the document rather than per bot or user. This is confusing for me, because most of the cases for us in a possible future scenario, there would be a lot of invalid data to be scanned to get to real data. E.g., we would have to supply approximately 100 pages of scanned data to extract two pages of original data. In these type of cases, the IQ Bot might be a costly venture."
"There is no licensing fee for our customers."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
"In addition to the licensing fee, there is also an implementation cost for each use case and technical support costs."
"One upgrade took a year to do, from the first server being built to the last bot being migrated. This was because we had to migrate all our existing bots. This is the same process and time frame that we are expecting towards the upcoming upgrade. I will end up spending half a million dollars to do an upgrade."
"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."
"My client is using RPA Express, which is available for them to use free of charge."
"The solution was not the cheapest, but it was also not the most expensive. Workfusion was very open to negotiating pricing and to working within the objectives of our firm."
"We are on an annual contract to use the solution."
"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
