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.

Customizable, easy to manage using a single dashboard, but the features in my version are quite basic
Infraon Desk is very flexible in nature and can be customized for my needs. The fact that I can customize it the way I want is the best part of the tool for me. The customization took longer than I expected to complete, although it may be the team that I was interacting with. They might not have had enough manpower in place. If enough resources are available then the customization is easy. All of the information that I need for monitoring the entire platform is available on a single dashboard. This is very helpful with respect to managing. The multi-channel ticketing options that this solution provides are very important to us because it's all about how we engage with our customers and what options we offer for them to communicate with us. Nowadays, there are many collaborative platforms and many methods for ticket logging. Every system of this type should be flexible enough to provide a mobile app, at least for Android and iOS, and not be confined to using Windows alone. Similarly, self-service portals as well as integration with Slack, as this product has, are important options that many people use.

Manual ticketing features hinder workflow, but cost-effective ticket management is ensured
We just use it because it's more trouble to rip it out than to replace it with a more expensive tool. I would not recommend this product to others. If budget is a concern, it might be suitable but it doesn’t excite. Hence, I would rate it a four out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We automated these processes so they will be processed automatically, and users will get the end result for validation—it is basically time-saving for them."
"The reporting capabilities are pretty nice."
"It has helped us to save a lot of FTEs for our solutions that we have provided to our companies."
"Excel automation is one of the best features in Automation Anywhere. If we have to work with multiple excel sheets with lots of rows and columns, it gets really difficult to keep track of this is done manually. But Automation Anywhere makes it really simple and error-free."
"It's a great product, timely support, and guidance."
"Many tasks take a long time for a person to do them. Automation Anywhere enables us to do those jobs in less time."
"The advantage of Automation Anywhere is that you don't necessarily have to come from a programming background."
"The object cloning is its most valuable feature."
"It is meeting our requirements and we are very happy and satisfied with the services of Infraon Desk."
"Infraon Desk is very flexible in nature and can be customized for my needs. The fact that I can customize it the way I want is the best part of the tool for me."
"Infraon Desk was the best choice for my budget, considering the features and customization that I wanted."
"There are a few dashboards and they are helpful because, in our organization, we have different groups of people who need different kinds of dashboards... as head of network operations, I need a top-level view. I want to see how many calls are open and how many calls are pending, on average, and some trend analysis. Whereas a manager in my team might like to see slightly more detail."
"The most valuable features are the ITIL compliance and billing."
"Their technical support has been very helpful and is very good."
"The product is very scalable and stable when used as a help desk once it is built out."
"The product teams are continuously on the products trying to improve them. If, for example, I ask for a change to be done in the software, the chances are in the next release it's going to be done and incorporated. It's this personal touch that I like."
"When using it predominantly for a help desk solution, it seems like an absolutely fine product."
"We have found the reporting in this product to be very useful."
"Their tech support has been talking to us about expanding features like integrations with Microsoft Teams."
"ManageEngine SupportCenter Plus works fine as a help desk software and is relatively inexpensive."
 

Cons

"Automation Anywhere could benefit from more in-person support, as they currently maintain only a virtual presence."
"We tried Citrix six months ago, but the solution that they gave us did not work in our environment."
"Especially while using v11, I often experience freezes with OCR extraction from PDF files."
"Automation Anywhere has a lot of room for improvement. It is not customer-friendly."
"As we expand our components of the Automation Anywhere platform that we utilize, we need better connections between them."
"We need a native way in Automation Anywhere's framework to tie all that information together, including AI dashboard, governance dashboards, and document automation results."
"We had a major issue when it came to single sign-on. We couldn't get it working. There was a bug in Automation Anywhere that eventually got solved just a few weeks back. However, we have not implemented it. We have had hiccups with the single sign-on, but otherwise it was a smooth setup. We are not using single sign-on because of this bug."
"In terms of speed in Automation Anywhere, I feel it is taking a slightly longer time."
"The version that I am using is very basic and I wouldn't say that it has extraordinary services capabilities that I've never seen before."
"The reporting is okay, but it doesn't give you reports that make you say "wow," like you might see from a tool like MRTG or PRTG whose reports give you a good feeling. The detailing is not there in the Infraon Desk reports and there are no graphical elements in them. The reporting is slightly weak and needs to be improved."
"Better connectivity and integration with more collaborative platforms would be helpful."
"I would like to see some kind of project management or portfolio management in a future version."
"ManageEngine SupportCenter Plus could improve on workflow automation features."
"They're pretty good but there's always room for improvement. There should be more templates that users can utilize immediately."
"The product is very difficult to use and configure and requires specialists."
"The tech support is terrible and that seems to be a part of their business plan."
"ManageEngine, in my experience, fosters that type of environment; it doesn't have an easy button, a graphic user interface, ease-of-use, and ease-of-dev — the product does not have any of that."
"The business model for the company is to sell low and charge for customization, education or expertise."
"There is no cloud-based version and it would be helpful if it were available."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think the pricing is reasonable, but clients often perceive it as expensive."
"The enterprise version is expensive for small businesses and individual users."
"We have reduced our headcount, approximately 200 to 300 employees, by eliminating manual, repetitive work. It provides profit to the business."
"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 are interested in saving manual engineer man-hours. So far, we have saved $100,000."
"There is a free trial so that they can get an overview, and there are different licenses that are very affordable and can suit every business model."
"It's cheaper than other similar solutions."
"We would like to use Citrix going forward. We use Bot Runners to scale up, and it gets to be expensive. Using Citrix, it can mitigate costs."
"The pricing model is very competitive."
"The price of this solution is reasonable and it was well within my budget."
"ManageEngine products will always be the lowest cost in category as that is part of their business model."
"The licensing fees depend on different criteria, including options and sizing."
