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.

Provides limited scalability, and systems do not synchronize properly

Detects incidents quickly, improves our SLA performance and solves issues faster
We mainly use it for incident logging. We'd like to add service request functionality, but we don't have the knowledge to configure the requests and the workflows properly. We'd like to integrate our workflows with the incident management, so we use it to manage our work better. We'd like to implement the service request feature. Right now, we just record everything as incidents. Some activities can take a long time, maybe one or two weeks. This makes it hard to maintain a good SLA, even if we work hard. So, response speed and workflow improvements.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have been able to take an accounting task and clear a very large backlog, therefore being completely up-to-date on the task since implementing a bot on it."
"Before switching to the cloud version of Automation Anywhere, I worked with v10 and v10, so I appreciate the core functionality and the fact that it's a low-code solution. That is one of the key elements that differentiates Automation Anywhere from other platforms and one of the reasons we have been able to achieve success."
"It is a great product."
"They have a credential vault, which is 256-bit encrypted. That is the highest security that can be provided when it comes to credential maintenance. With a credential vault, other than the user who is entering the password, no one else knows what the password is."
"Automation Anywhere has been a boon for our organization because the tedious task that used to be hectic and made us remain seated for hours is now done with a single click."
"We were able to replace a lot of the manual and data entry workload that our accounts payable clerks were doing, and the work that was done before by this original group can now be done by four people."
"It frees individuals up from mundane tasks so they can concentrate on being more active and creative other things that they need to do."
"We've noticed time savings of up to 40 minutes, based on wait time and verification delays."
"The product's stability in terms of uptime is generally good; it is always operational."
"The solution is easy to setup."
"The solution has a great filtering feature."
"The best part is the ability to keep records, especially incident records. It's easy to use the tool to store data and monitor it."
"I would recommend Samanage from the IT support perspective because it's a great ticketing system and the only downside is the site shutdowns and the messy nature of the UI and UX."
"Samanage has not only taken over asset and inventory management, but it also has the ability to function across departments, making it easy for end users to submit help desk tickets for IT, HR, and Finance."
 

Cons

"IQ Bot is useful but the price is not friendly."
"I feel the tool has to provide deeper insights for debugging issues, considering both internal and external factors."
"However, if documents are scanned and not clear, the accuracy is not up to the mark."
"Pricing with respect to the competitors is more."
"Some things that I do not see as of today are interactive chat or video interface. These are things that I will look for in future. I saw something like picture recognition, but something like a video or voice recognition is something that I'm looking for in the Automation Anywhere platform as an end user and even as a reseller."
"Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."
"The debugger is also a weakness of the tool, forcing the developer to use error handling or message box to map errors. Few applications take more time for loading when integrated."
"Queues are great but need improvement. They are helpful because most of the automations are transaction-based."
"Queries fail to retrieve the correct information, and the discovery tool does not accurately reflect the details of devices."
"The synchronization between the ITAM and Neurons should be restored."
"We've had some problems with the system shutting down about once a month. It sometimes takes five or 10 minutes to start working again but it can also take hours."
"There are definitely areas for improvement, but so far, so good."
"The system shuts down about once a month which is frustrating."
"The setting up process is not quite easy. It's quite difficult."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is a value for the money product."
"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."
"They are already coming out with a community license, which is really good. That's something that I wish to have."
"We are a partner of Automation Anywhere and find the pricing to be reasonable."
"The cost is affordable, which makes an easy barrier to entry for the RPA market."
"It is somewhere in the middle. The price and value of Automation Anywhere are better than UiPath. The pricing is good globally. It could be a little bit cheaper, but it is good."
"If you are looking into Automation Anywhere, get the Community Edition and play with it."
"Pricing is affordable and I would recommend beginning with the Starter Package."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"It is expensive."
