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.

Has helped streamline ticketing and change management while offering clear documentation support
Documentation and learning materials are available for Ivanti Neurons for ITSM, and if you check the vendor sites, you will find documents for each feature. I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited. If a user believes in Ivanti, they should also believe in all its products including Ivanti Neurons for ITSM and Neurons because they are genuinely putting in hard work. This is reflected in the documentation, though I suggest they work on creating more videos. Other than that, you will find everything you need in the community site and documentation site. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Ivanti Neurons for ITSM an 8 out of 10.

Assistant customer support manager
Prioritizes tasks and easily organizes messages and responses
I've not really noticed anything that needs to be improved with the solution. Generally, I enjoyed everything. Every feature LiveAgent has was a seamless journey for me. Maybe there are others who might notice one or two flaws on LiveAgent. I use LiveAgent, but based on my position in the company as a live chat professional, there is a level that I am restricted to. There are other products that are more popular and effective than LiveAgent, like Zendesk and HubSpot. They are among the most popular live chat products, and they have more users. I will advise that LiveAgent should look at what these other people are doing and use it to improve themselves. LiveAgent should add more functionalities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We've had many sit-down conversations with the Automation Anywhere team when we were testing out the document automation. We gave them feedback about potential enhancements, so when we launched our most recent document automation use case, the capabilities were already there. We didn't need to come up with a workaround or put the project on hold because the things we needed were unavailable. That commitment to customer success stands out because they know that without us, the product won't succeed."
"The error handling and troubleshooting are very good, and it is easy for a developer to know what happened in any particular line of code."
"We realized a return on investment with Automation Anywhere, especially during the COVID surge in volume within the payment process."
"Automation Anywhere is a good platform with extensive capabilities that has innovated and kept their platform more centered and relevant in the market by introducing AI and agentic capabilities."
"Because of the presence of Automation, it helped my company deal with banks in this field and to know many important processes in banks and private companies."
"The Automation Copilot is helpful. It will automatically give you all the solutions your bot requires. It's like a dictionary."
"I think that one of the coolest features that what Automation Anywhere has come up with is AI Sense. I see an immense potential there. Using AI Sense, we can automate outside Citrix. That's going to remove the client dependency or overall automation journey, and that can give lot of optimization, cost saving, and the time to market."
"Now, rather than the team going and collecting all of that information, we can have the bots do it, and that has been fantastic."
"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is a key tool and is very important to my service delivery efficiency."
"I like Cloud Neurons. Since it's a cloud version, it's much easier to enhance productivity because it collects all the information automatically."
"It is relatively cost-effective compared to other options like ServiceNow. Additionally, it is highly stable."
"HEAT Service Management is a great tool for assets, service desk, and customer service management."
"What I appreciate about Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is its comprehensive change request management system, which we utilize for server patching, workstation patching, BIOS updates, and driver updates, enabling us to have CAB meetings to discuss changes and approve them before implementation."
"It is easy to set up."
"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."
"I like that this solution provides the history and control over every process connected to a building so we can see everything that's happened since we started using this solution."
"My experience with LiveAgent so far has been a seamless one."
"The most valuable feature was how the solution helped us to prioritize tasks."
"Provides service level optimization."
 

Cons

"What I am suggesting, when using A2019, if there are any additional features to exclude those antivirus scans until after my task is completed, then the antivirus can start scheduling. Then, I can easily tell the client that the priority are running and the Automation Anywhere scans can wait until after the release."
"We could use more accuracy with IQ Bot."
"Automation Anywhere has a persistent click-related issue that can make automation difficult, particularly in unattended environments."
"As a business user, I would like to have a feature wherein the bot is run on demand, whenever an email with a specific keyword or whenever a specific pers sends an email to the bot's email address."
"A lot more can be done to make the solution easy for developer to use."
"While the community provides a platform for interaction and resource sharing, not all training content aligns with the specific needs of developers."
"Some of the biggest improvements they can make are with the interface. It can be improved in terms of usability or searching for something. For example, icons are hard to find. Typically, you jump into the search box, but being able to go in and find things quickly with the eye could be very valuable."
"They can further improve the AI. It is already at a certain level, but it can be improved."
"I rate Ivanti Neurons for ITSM an eight out of ten because it has many features but needs some improvements."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited."
"Areas that have room for improvement with Ivanti Neurons for ITSM might include some of the reliability with Mac devices."
"Because it is so new, the really valuable processes like Release, Availability, and Financial Management are just bare bones."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM's support model is not very strong. You should buy professional services. Its self-service portal and survey are extremely lacking. You cannot customize it, and it doesn't look very good. The solution does not have a strong community."
"They could provide product integration with popular platforms."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"Connection to other softwares could be improved."
"There are other products that are more popular."
"There are other products that are more popular and effective than LiveAgent, like Zendesk and HubSpot."
"I'd like to see an improved API to the system, rather than other softwares having to trigger everything."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is anywhere between $10,000 and $100,000."
"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."
"I am not responsible for the pricing part, but I know the pricing is competitive compared to other tools."
"Our annual licensing costs for the entire company are $100,000."
"Whatever investment, licensing, and resource costs together are put in for development and delivery, we are still at an ROI of 250 percent."
"We have a few licenses. They cost roughly $10,000 each."
"The certifications are free of cost."
"It is expensive. I would rate Automation Anywhere an eight out of ten in terms of pricing."
"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 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."
"The product is affordable for small businesses."
