Featured Reviews

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.

Satender Sajwan

Operations Manager at Genpact

Gave a better output every time, reduced our touch time by 80%, and had a robust reporting mechanism to improve the process

We tested HyperScience on structured formats of the forms, and it worked really well. We tested it with semi-structured formats, and it worked well. We also tested creating a new form that does not have any format. HyperScience has less capability while working on unstructured forms. Unstructured forms are those where there is no standard structure and the information can be anywhere on the form. They need to develop this capability. Such a capability would make it a perfect system for processes like data entry, accounts tables, etc. Secondly, before putting the actual volume in the tool, I believe that we have to create a manual form every time. If the procedure of creating the forms can be shortened or automated, it would help. It would reduce the manual effort of creating a form every time you start working on it. There should be an automated form creation system that does not require any manual intervention. Whenever a new form comes, the system should be able to create a dummy form for that. That will help.

Regional Director at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Has raised concerns due to outdated framework and high ownership costs

Pega Robotic Process Automation is a temporary solution to a bigger issue, and the cost of implementation especially with Pega really stops customers from proceeding. The total cost of ownership could be improved. From a technical perspective, the product performs adequately. The installation can be quite complex as it's not standalone, and customers need to get the whole Pega platform up and running. The total cost of ownership is not very attractive. RPA as a concept is outdated now, with agentic AI becoming more prominent. We don't see much interest from customers in going down the RPA route; Pega Robotic Process Automation is losing its prominence in the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We're finding time savings as a benefit. One example would be a customer service rep who might get a question about an order, and it's usually through email. It can take a good three to seven business days to answer a customer's question about their order. When we automate it, it takes hours, if not minutes."

"Using IQ Bot, we can extract more data out from the documents that are unstructured."

"Recorders and Bot Insights are very valuable features."

"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."

"With Automation Anywhere, they receive their financial statements while still on the call."

"The product is easy to use. It is a good tool for developers and business users."

"We mostly used the Database commands in order to make the process faster and more secure, rather than using Excel or a CSV for reading the input files."

"There are things that used to take us a lot of time, like manual entries or HR queries, but now that the bots are in place, we are saving a lot of time."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"HyperScience is good for structured and semi-structured document extraction and it's easy to learn."

"I like that compared to other tools, HyperScience works best with handwritten documents."

"Valuable features include tools like IQ Bot and the ability to extract handwritten documents with 93-95 per cent accuracy, which can be improved using ML technology."

"One of the most valuable features of HyperScience is the user-training module. Whenever the extraction takes place, based on the way we have trained HyperScience, it would give us some success status or a certain confidence level. If the solution has processed something that it determined was not extracted correctly it will queue those items for manual review."

"For our use case, it provided a complete workflow, reduced our existing touch time by 80%, and from the point of view of technology, it is one of the leading platforms right now in the OCR world."

"We have seen pretty good accuracy."

"Having a tool like HyperScience which facilitates the process of converting digital copies of the scanned documents and provides us with the extracted data has helped us to facilitate further automation."

"It provides the best accuracy for handwritten forms, which is a struggle in the industry. You can take processes with a lot of manual work and streamline them through this tool."

More HyperScience pros

"The community support is awesome."

"It was very smooth and very seamless to create automations."

"Pega Robotic Process Automation makes it easy with metrics, robots save time, and handling customer calls became much easier."

"The number of human steps that have been eliminated is significant, and we try to maximize straight-through processing."

"The solution's ability to create adapters quickly is its most valuable feature."

"It is a good and matured solution."

"Pega is very mature. It's very old. They have grown with time, and they have learned. Other robotic process automation solutions are basically focused on only doing the automation, whereas Pega also gives you a workflow system so that you can create a workflow."

"With Pega Robotics, once we integrated it will work with any machines after deployment until there is a change."

More Pega Robotic Process Automation pros

Cons

"Automation Anywhere's current requirement for upfront annual payments limits flexibility for customers."

"The workflow has a complex drag-and-drop interface that is not user-friendly and requires a good technical understanding, which can be challenging for users."

"It has been challenging integrating Automation Anywhere with other solutions, due to all of the controls, as we are a bank."

"Currently, there are some vulnerabilities in security that need attention in Automation Anywhere."

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

"It can be a challenge for a developer, as it limits what they can do."

"The product is not totally stable."

"When I compare Automation Anywhere with the competition, some of the competitors have ready-made, off-the-shelf modules. For example, UiPath integrates with Windows AD. That is missing as of now in Automation Anywhere. If that became available it would also be great."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"No solution is perfect and there are several different scenarios that could be improved in HyperScience. One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle. There is some issue with supporting the extraction from multiple tables involved on the same form. If this could improve, it would be a big benefit."

"Extracting tables from certain documents could be improved."

"The product's usability could be better."

"The solution is expensive."

"HyperScience is a stable solution, but there are some improvements needed in terms of the language support and support of dictionaries."

"HyperScience could improve the unstructured data extraction feature."

"The product's usability could be better. The first pain point is that we're getting the output in a different format, and we were expecting a different timetable. The second point is that if you want better results, HyperScience says you have to configure a minimal PDF or a maximum of 400 PDFs. If you want results with 400 PDFs for what's written by these doctors, then you also configure the maximum of 400 templates for that. So, it's essentially a lack of support from HyperScience. In the next release, it would be better if failure scenarios were reduced. It would also help if they offered different formats, inputs or injections, and added different scenarios."

"HyperScience has less capability while working on unstructured forms. Unstructured forms are those where there is no standard structure and the information can be anywhere on the form. They need to develop this capability."

More HyperScience cons

"The orchestration needs to be better."

"It's difficult not knowing when alerts will arrive."

"The OCR capabilities of the solution could be improved."

"I would like to see an enhanced auditing feature included."

"The development experience needs to be improved."

"Rule versioning and deployment to enable parallel development could still be improved"

"Pega Robotic Process Automation is a temporary solution to a bigger issue, and the cost of implementation especially with Pega really stops customers from proceeding."

"They have tied the deployment with the Pega BPM product, the robot manager. You need to have the BPM installed."

More Pega Robotic Process Automation cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's fine. However, I'm concerned with the credits in terms of the pricing for the AI models. It is understandable that the new ones are more expensive, but the base models, after doing the pricing conversion, cost about four to ten times as much as paying directly."

"We are not receiving the right information about their features, e.g. Automation Anywhere University, or anything that they are selling. They need to improve their documentation."

"The certifications are free of cost."

"If we talk about the automation RPA. it definitely has worked very well for us. I'm talking about giving good savings, about more than 180 FTE savings, after implementing more than 200 plus bots. It has worked well. As an organization, it has supported us very well, and also for our customers."

"The licensing fees are approximately $10,000 USD for between five and ten users."

"It is one of the most affordable RPA solutions, and as for licensing, they offer a community edition that greatly helps anyone who aspires to learn about the product before buying the enterprise solution."

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

"In the Indian market, I feel that for mid-size companies, such as ourselves, that having multiple bots costs a lot. If Automation Anywhere wants to expand in the Indian market, they will need to look at their pricing."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"I think HyperScience is cheaper when compared to other tools. They also have a lifetime licensing option."

"I don't have any idea about the licensing costs, but I know that there was a per-page charge. They had different models of pricing. One of them was based on the minimum number of pages, and we had a fixed price. So, the price model depends on the volume that is coming through HyperScience."

"Pega is as competitive as the basic players such as UiPath or Automation Anywhere. UiPath is the most expensive, but Pega is at par with Automation Anywhere."

"I was not involved in licensing and pricing, but it is worth the cost."

"The licensing cost is too high."

"Pega is pretty costly."

"Pega Robotic Process Automation is an expensive solution."

"I would rate the product's pricing a nine out of ten."

"In terms of Pega Robotic Process Automation pricing, I would rate it a five out of five because the solution has a good price. Pricing is not very high, though I'm unsure of the exact cost, based on my experience, the price for Pega Robotic Process Automation is less than Blue Prism because I worked with a few clients that have both solutions and my clients prefer Pega Robotic Process Automation over Blue Prism particularly because of the licensing costs."
