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.

The tool needs to improve in the areas of security, though it is a versatile product
Inflectra Rapise needs to expand its ability. I spoke with Inflectra's executive account rep on the need to expand the tool's ability. The problem with Inflectra Rapise is that a lot of companies are still using SAP GUI. Inflectra has no intention of building Rapise in a way that allows it to interact with SAP GUI. Inflectra Rapise has very limited value for the companies I work with because they they still use SAP GUI since their top priority is SAP testing, and they want to get into automation, for which they need a tool that cannot only used to automate processes, but can also do end-to-end testing where you are not only using SAP GUI, but you are using the interface with old legacy systems that are still in use or with today's more modern technologies. In the future, the tool needs to increase its versatility. If I am at a company that uses 23 different technologies, like .NET Visual Basic, Oracle, SQL, or whatever, Inflectra Rapise needs to be made as a product that is an out-of-the-box usable tool for any technology.

Automation has transformed document processing and frees teams to focus on higher‑value analysis
Sometimes, we encounter system errors that could be resolved via support, but connection issues are more frequent in enterprise applications. However, these can usually be solved by raising tickets if you are part of an enterprise, though we are not, which makes it somewhat challenging. It is vital to ensure the connections of UiPath Platform are maintained because it has a larger community. If UiPath Platform website included more features and documentation accessible easily, it would greatly enhance the experience. Instead of continually needing to raise support tickets, having a documentation hub where details can just be entered to retrieve required documents would be extremely beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have had a very good experience with Automation Anywhere and we are very happy with the solutions."
"AA has good coverage in terms of out-of-the-box functionality for bot development and management."
"We have been able to reduce our number of FTEs."
"Using Automation Anywhere has improved our company significantly, as we are doing over eight to 10,000 invoices a month, which people had to do before, while now the automated process is doing that without too much human intervention, saving probably about at least two to possibly three FTEs per week."
"Automation Anywhere has save us more than $40,000 in the past year."
"By implementing it, we were able to solve the issue of automation, which we had almost given up on."
"Automation Anywhere is excellent for integrating with other solutions. It provides the ability to leverage the APIs of third-party solutions. We use some of the already built-in MetaBots to then scrape the data and manipulate independent data that we need in order to integrate with other third-party solutions."
"Before Automation Anywhere, the insurance companies used to transfer data manually from one app to another, but after introducing them to automation the speed and accuracy have been outstanding."
"The first time I used Rapise I completed the automation scripts for a full application in a day and I was shocked how easy it was."
"It's incredible but the support and maintenance of Inflectra Rapise's scripts is less than 30% of the effort that was involved in maintaining Selenium, it is very easy and this is the reason that we are switching everything that needs handling from Selenium to Inflectra Rapise, as it is easy to maintain and provides a benefit in cost and efforts with a 90% reduction factor in the maintenance of the scripts."
"It's pretty straightforward to set up."
"The initial setup was straightforward; it wasn't complex at all, and we found it nice and easy."
"Rapise is a good automation tool that's easy to use and learn, and you can share scripts as a team, which is very helpful."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its versatility."
"We always use the product for end-to-end automation test cases."
"The scripting of this tool is easy and user friendly."
"The most value we got from UiPath is the ability to automate manual tasks, reduce labor hours, and shift people to higher value work."
"UiPath Platform is super convenient to work with; considering it with other automation tools, it is the easiest to work with and most versatile—you can perform all types of automation by using the UiPath Platform."
"The RE Framework provided by UiPath is quite extensive. It solves a lot of problems and gives us a lot of time back. We do not have to create our own framework."
"Implementing AI in our automation has significantly enhanced the accuracy of our operations."
"In the departments that use UiPath, they've been able to reduce man-hours spent doing manual processes, allowing our team members to provide value through analytical thought, direct customer interaction, and reduced errors while also reducing FTE costs and improving the quality of work the team produces."
"The UiPath Academy is fantastic and amazing. I'm a big promoter of it in my discussions with customers."
"We find the solution to be stable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the unattended robots because I can schedule my jobs and it can run on its own."
 

Cons

"The AISense recorder in Automation Anywhere needs improvement in resilience and OCR capabilities, particularly in comparison to UiPath's superior OCR functionality."
"The pricing is a little bit high compared with other tools."
"Some things that I do not see as of today are interactive chat or video interface."
"One of the things that the product should have is to add more advanced level developer capabilities into the platform. I know it is easy for business, non-technical people. However, for the developers, there should be some more features within the product so they can build advanced level use cases much faster."
"The GUI can be improved by making it more user-friendly."
"Queue management is still missing from the latest version which is a barrier to using the platform to start implementing complex cases where you have parent and child transactions going through multiple stages."
"I would like to use VB.NET native code inside of Automation Anywhere."
"We have still not explored Automation Anywhere to its full potential, so I will restrict myself from commenting on improvement areas at this time."
"What I have noticed about Rapise is that sometimes when you keep on using the same script, it fails many times."
"I faced one problem where it can't validate the colour of images and text. Also, it could not automate the mobile app, and this needs to be included."
"Inflectra Rapise needs to expand its ability."
"When there are failures in a nightly run of batches of scripts, it can create a blocking situation where all the following scripts will fail due to unexpected results."
"The maintenance is very difficult. We've only been using the platform for three months, so I'm not sure if that will continue, but right now it's an observation I've had."
"It would be good if there could be more integration of Inflectra Rapise, since not all customers use the same tool for test management and automation integration."
"It has some stability issues where the tool crashes sometimes on Windows 10."
"The maintenance is very difficult."
"The graphics could always be improved."
"Recently we were trying to add AI Fabric into our production Orchestrator, but we faced a lot of challenges. We had to involve the UiPath support team in the upgrading process. We were quick movers to upgrade to AI Fabric, as not many companies have done that. There were some bugs that we discovered during our upgrade journey, and that's how UiPath came to know about those bugs. It was a little bit tricky, but UiPath's team is always present and helps along the journey."
"The Document Understanding feature should be more developed and advanced."
"It's a complex environment with all its moving pieces."
"They could really improve the advanced training. It is too shallow and makes quick jumps from concepts, and you cannot really learn how to work more advancedly with it."
"The user interface needs a little bit of improvement in terms of performance. Sometimes, it slows down, but it depends on the OS that you have. If you are running it on Microsoft Windows, it is slower than on macOS or Linux."
"We are not able to extract the data from the same type of PDF which is bulky in number, and scrapping is not so good."
"Sometimes, it takes a while to open and launch workflows, and this speed issue could be addressed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't deal have cost specifics but I can say it is a tool that provides value for the money."
"Automation Anywhere might have a higher upfront cost than some competitors, but its extensive features and seamless integration with other tools can save organizations money in the long run."
"Price is where I'm least satisfied. Other vendors are more willing to offer discounts."
"It saves on the quality of work, because the quality can be bad when somebody's doing it. If a bot does the work, it's faster and comes with good quality. These are two important things along with the cost saving in the long run. That's where the value is."
"Initially, they charged a premium, but now the rest of the vendors have increased their overall pricing and Automation Anywhere is not that high at this time. It's pretty viable."
"We have purchased licenses, but are trying to obtain more bot programmer licenses."
"Cost is the biggest area in need of improvement for Automation Anywhere. Annually it's $250,000. That's what deterred us right away."
"I would rate the price of Automation Anywhere a six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
"We pay no more than $50 annually for support of each one of the licenses."
"I rate the product's price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where ten means very good pricing."
"The pricing is average; it is not too high nor too low."
"It is expensive for our country."
"The licensing fees are billed annually."
"UiPath solutions fit European and American clients, but especially for medium- and small-sized businesses in India, the cost may be the one factor that constrains customers. That's especially true when it comes to AI and ML solutions."
"UiPath has a Community version that is totally free (including Orchestrator) and has all the features."
"The pricing and licensing costs seem okay to me, although it is a little bit on the high side."
"The price of both UiPath and Automation Anywhere is high. The basic package is included in the price, but in case you require any professional or golden package, you have to pay a higher price."
"UiPath is a little more costly than competing solutions such as Automation Anywhere."
