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.

Technical Account Manager at a computer software company with 11-50 employees
Unified endpoint control has improved patch workflows and streamlined remote device management
I like the patch management side of things in this solution. You can set deployment rings so patches are rolled out in phases rather than hitting everyone at once, which reduces risk. I quite like that feature. I also appreciate the endpoint visibility when you're in the dashboard. You can see device health, the compliance status, software inventory, and other information all in one place without jumping between tools. Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is a key tool and is very important to my service delivery efficiency. Since implementing it and having used it for two years, the ease of use is a significant advantage because it covers Windows, Mac OS, iOS, and Android, so I can operate and manage devices all from the same console. This is good in a mixed device environment. From a Windows perspective, the BitLocker key retrieval feature is very helpful. The analytics and reporting tools in this product are helpful. I can see device health and out-of-warranty status. This is crucial in keeping our environment up to date and secure.

Comprehensive IT service processes have been supported but customization and support need improvement
All ITSM functionalities of SymphonyAI IT Service Management, including incident, problem, change, service request, and their out-of-the-box functionalities, are pretty good. SymphonyAI IT Service Management does not have too many integrations and does not have too many out-of-the-box integrations compared to other peers in the market. I think that is the only place where they lack. However, they did have a functionality where we could build our own integration, so we were using that. If they had any out-of-the-box capabilities for some of the common infrastructure tools, that would have been easier for us. The out-of-the-box functionalities were good, including AI. However, the moment we had to customize options, that becomes very difficult with SymphonyAI IT Service Management. As long as we were using out-of-the-box, it worked great.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Scalability is good. There is no question about its scalability."
"We found that RPA with additional AI capabilities, such as machine learning and Computer Vision, can enable the organization to augment existing business operations by creating efficiencies and improving the accuracy of data to be processed, without changing too much of the existing system."
"Automation Anywhere overall is a great tool for automation, as it provides a lot of flexibility to work with different other applications."
"What I appreciate most about Automation Anywhere is the ease of use. Everything is easy to set up. I also appreciate the extensibility that it has."
"The universal recorder along with the Excel basic and advanced packages has been highly valuable."
"They have an AI platform with GenAI implemented to help us generate anything that is necessary for automation."
"From a technical perspective, developers can easily create bots and get things done with this tool."
"Automation Anywhere has helped me save both time and costs, with savings of approximately eight million in the last two to three years, and in terms of percentage, I saved around thirty to forty percent of time compared to before using Automation Anywhere."
"It is easy to set up."
"Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs."
"It's easy for the IT admins at the company to use. It isn't hard to understand and there are lots of features you can use out of the box. If a feature isn't available in Ivanti Automation, you can always script it."
"They allow us to automate ticketing processes and create requests more efficiently, improving our overall support operations."
"The integrations are quite simple and clear."
"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."
"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies."
"It is relatively cost-effective compared to other options like ServiceNow. Additionally, it is highly stable."
"It was easy to access and fast. Our experience using it solely as a ticketing tool. We used fetch reports from the tool, particularly with regard to SLA tracking for our partners."
"The most valuable feature is remote access. People are working from home, and we can take remote access through it."
"All ITSM functionalities of SymphonyAI IT Service Management, including incident, problem, change, service request, and their out-of-the-box functionalities, are pretty good."
"It is a good tool to use."
"The product has the best features for ITSM."
"SummitAI IT Management Suite's chat box feature has reduced our service discount, and because it's intelligent, the responses that go out to the users have improved, and the resolutions are much faster."
 

Cons

"One area where I think there's an opportunity to do things a lot better is in the analytics function. They do have a concept or product called Bot Insights. It hasn't worked for us. It isn't as plug and play as we were led to believe, which is unfortunate. I can absolutely understand the value, and the demonstrations that I've seen of Bot Insights are sensational. But, we just haven't been able to make it work. We've invested a lot of time and effort trying to make it work to no avail."
"The solution is costly and the licensing is very confusing."
"We would like to have a better debugging facility."
"Replacing the list of search options with voice commands for each item would be great."
"I would like to see a technology where they can automatically update or upgrade themselves to the latest version, without having to uninstall the current bot."
"The analytical dashboard in the Control Room could use some improvement."
"While it is easy to develop automation, deploying and running them requires some technical knowledge."
"Automation Anywhere is one of the least stable RPA tools out of the top five RPA solutions."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"The user interface could be more futuristic and modernized in terms of styling and colors."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."
"The support that we're currently getting is just not there."
"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."
"Sometimes I can't get the reports that I want until I go to the manager. They need to put more into the new reports. The standard reports are great, but there do not communicate as much."
"There could be flexibility in terms of customization."
"SummitAI IT Management Suite's project management and operational management features could be improved."
"Technical support takes too long for any issues to get resolved, and that created a lot of frustration."
"I would like them to add software inventory in the next release. We don't have that right now."
"Integration was a major limitation with SummitAI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I am not sure about the costs, but two Bot Runners and four Bot Creators may cost approximately 1CR."
"Subscription for Automation Anywhere (AA) is paid yearly."
"This is a comprehensive automation offering with a scalable architecture and flexible pricing models."
"We are a partner of Automation Anywhere and find the pricing to be reasonable."
"The licensing cost for Automation Anywhere is high."
"Automation Anywhere's pricing falls within the mid-range, but the long-term benefits outweigh the initial investment."
"I don't deal have cost specifics but I can say it is a tool that provides value for the money."
"If you want to add more users who can handle support there will be additional fees. What we call our extensions, we need to pay more for. They tell us that we need to acquire more licenses or something like that. I think it's very expensive, because in terms the pula, our local currency, it's about 20,000 per license for each user. It is an annual fee."
"The product is affordable for small businesses."
"My customers do direct sales with Ivanti, and they complain that Ivanti Automation is more expensive than other solutions."
"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"I came to know from my team members that my company used to operate ServiceNow but shifted to Ivanti Neurons for ITSM due to its low licensing prices."
"SummitAI IT Management Suite's pricing is a bit expensive."
"The product's cost is average."
"We have a regular license."
