Featured Reviews

Nadeem K. - PeerSpot reviewer
Rpa Developer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Automation has freed teams from repetitive finance and supply tasks and supports global operations
In the current organization, we had trouble initially because I think the documentation and support could be better than what it is now. This is one difference between Automation Anywhere and other RPA tools such as UiPath. In UiPath, if you have an issue, you go to the UiPath website and search for it, and you get lots of help materials. In Automation Anywhere, you do not get exactly what you are looking for. You get a very large number of results when you search for something, and from this large result set, you have to filter out what you need, or only partial information will be available. User handbooks are available for each product. In that regard, I would say Automation Anywhere is lagging compared to other RPA tools. It is difficult to get hold of their customer support team. I want to clarify that it is not a matter of us building logic on Automation Anywhere and it failing. When it is a product-related issue, they have to give us support because we only know how to develop within Automation Anywhere. We do not know how to fix Automation Anywhere itself. Whenever we have an issue, trying to get in touch with them always takes three to four business days.

Senior Manager - RPA & Transition at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Suitable for a small-scale business but not evolved enough for a large enterprise
The best thing with that Jacada is that they are a repository builder, which we use for our assessment to gauge and match screens. Jacada has evolved, but I'm not using the latest version. Technically we use our internal product more, which is iAutomate. We also use UiPath and Automation Anywhere…
HP
Senior Business Process Automation Engineer at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
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

"Automation Anywhere has helped my company with APIs. We are currently in a project to create APIs for our core banking service and other transactional systems, migrating from another integration technology to API."
"Business process automation has improved the efficiency and accuracy of processes and reduced manual efforts which can be utilized in value addition for the firm."
"We have had a lot of success using Automation Anywhere products and we've actually built a few solutions that were done on the EY cloud, which are offered to clients as a managed service."
"When considering all the facts, this is one of the most user-friendly RPA tools that I have worked with."
"The recorder capture tools, specifically the AISense Recorder and Universal Recorder, are valuable. We use these tools in almost every automation. These tools are very effective in capturing data from various applications. We can get data from a web page or an application."
"The most valuable features for us are the Image Recognition and Object Cloning. We used this feature to automate our web-based tasks with repetitive actions or complex conditions. These features are very easy to use and do not require you to have deep knowledge in programming to understand since it has a drop and drag feature used to control it."
"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."
"In my case in particular, I come from a business background, not an IT background. So, it sort of speaks for itself that I was able to pickup its functionality and how it works. In the space of two years time, I've gone from a junior developer to a senior specialist. So, it really speaks for itself in terms of being user-friendly."
"The best thing with Jacada is that they are a repository builder, which we use for our assessment to gauge and match screens."
"The initial setup was fairly straightforward."
"Deployment was good."
"It's FTE-saving."
"A lot of our back-office business is driven around emails right now, and there's no automation whatsoever around any of that at the moment. That's where we're really looking to go."
"UiPath Platform definitely helps us reduce a lot of human errors and accelerates the outcomes of repetitive work."
"With UiPath and RPA, the sky's the limit; there is potential for a bunch of things that you can do."
"UiPath increased the value added by the company, as repetitive processes were carried out automatically with UiPath robots and situations that previously prevented employees from developing and adding more value were eliminated."
"In terms of the ease of building automations, we have processed millions of cases through UiPath, which has saved hundreds of thousands of hours for our employees and freed them up to do other tasks."
"UiPath Platform scales really from a technical standpoint."
 

Cons

"We are not getting consistent behavior from the tool We would like to see this improved and the product more stable."
"Automation Anywhere changed OCR features in A2019. My suggestion is to improve the OCR command scope and usability. We use OCR for PDF data extraction as we use in V. 11.x product."
"Automation Anywhere is one of the least stable RPA tools out of the top five RPA solutions."
"The product is not the best that it could be. There is always room to improve it a bit more. They are heading in the right direction with their innovations."
"The initial deployment and onboarding process was somewhat difficult, but once things stabilized, the experience became excellent."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved by integrating self-correction capabilities into the bots, particularly as we develop RPA, where changes in environment paths require additional redeveloping efforts."
"New versions keep coming up. The challenge for us is to have the downtime to do the migrations. This could be improved upon. We would like fewer version changes and upgrades happening to the application. While the downtime is not that much, depending on the business processes, there are times few critical processes are running on a daily or hourly basis. We would expect the downtime to be even less for them."
"Having fewer connection instances would make it more secure, more simple to troubleshoot, and possibly more flexible with the type of applications in use."
"They need to create a workflow system."
"When we first started using Jacada, the technical support was not good at all; however, they were just getting started then."
"The support for this solution is tedious. I would rate it a five out of ten. If we don't respond or the ticket closes, we do not get a response from them."
"UiPath’s reluctance to add the support of C#/.NET code till now."
"One of the things that we are lacking right now is not stability, but usability with debugging, e.g., when you can't see what went wrong. We have to look through 50,000 pages of logs or so."
"There are certain areas that we need to see improvements: performance, efficiency, and complex environment."
"A self-coding robot can be a very useful tool in the future."
"The features I was looking for related to UiPath Platform were related to PII masking, however, they have already introduced it. It's related to guardrails, so it's beneficial."
"Since we are still in the early stages of using UiPath, identifying areas for improvement is challenging."
"Due to the heavy load of robot creation, the system gets hanged while starting up the robot, as well as the application startup takes a lot of time, and the validation of licence can be bypassed if the user directly starts UiPath from the system."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We would like them to change the license model of charging per bot."
"No one is balking at the cost. They are market rates and will change, but no one is saying, "That is ridiculous or impossible." They are saying, "Show me the ROI and prove that the cost is accurate.""
"We're on a license package with Automation Anywhere (AA), paid yearly. What would be better is for them to have different packages for different types of organization."
"Our annual licensing costs are around $100,000 a year."
"The pricing strategy for us is one license for development. It is more complicated than that depending on the options you choose."
"I think the pricing is reasonable, but clients often perceive it as expensive."
"Automation Anywhere pricing and licensing are competitive compared to the other automation vendors."
"I find the license pricing to be competitive and reflective of the pricing models throughout the RPA space, and I believe there is a lot of value in continuing to maintain the free community edition platform."
Information not available
"The cost of UiPath is much less than that of Blue Prism. They've been very flexible and willing to work with us with our new contractors we just signed on. It's worked out well."
"If you are a smaller organization, use the free community version of the software to get a feel for its features and abilities."
"UiPath is too expensive."
"I don't know the exact cost, but UiPath is more expensive than Power Automate and Automation Anywhere."
"We have 200 licenses for bots in production and pay between $200,000 and $300,000 per year currently."
"The vendor gave us a 30-day money-back guarantee. We were fine with that. We saw improvement during that time and kept the solution."
"UiPath is not cheap."
"I'm not sure about licensing and pricing, but the pricing for their certification is a little bit more. Previously, we could do it for no price."
