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.

Comprehensive workflows and data views have supported complex teams but still need cost improvements

JIRA Service Management is costly. The pricing structure needs improvement. When I add some plugins, I have to pay the cost for every user whether they are using it or not. For smaller companies, the detailed workflow editing and the kind of details that JIRA Service Management provides would be complex. For startups and smaller companies, JIRA Service Management would be complex. The cloud offering is easier because I don't have to manage the infrastructure. There are two templates of the project: company-managed and team-managed. Team-managed is a newer feature, which is good for startup-kind companies where they don't need control over data from multiple projects displaying in one dashboard. For startups, JIRA Service Management is somewhat complex with its schemes and everything. Capacity management should be improved in terms of additional features in the next release of JIRA Service Management.

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

"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 most valuable features of Automation Anywhere are the document processing and queue management."

"It has saved our HR department time since this process automatically happens without anybody's intervention. Our HR department is able to devote their time to more productive work or activities. It has also saved a lot of costs since every employee in the HR department is involved in the attendance and payroll process. Second, the process is now no more human dependent."

"Our onboarding process was pretty good. We got access to all software that we needed to learn and utilize. The Automation Anywhere University is really good. In our business, the person who was onboarding us helped us to understand how to create a center of excellence and what verticals we needed to improve. So, the support was there. We are gradually becoming a center of excellence ourselves."

"In our fund management and fund reconciliation process, we had a lot of headcount. Automation has significantly reduced our FTE count, investing that IT personnel into other work. Also, the quality of the work has slightly improved."

"We have almost 27 use cases in production and, as of now, we have saved almost eight FTEs per annum."

"The bot creation process is easy, manageable, and everything is well-organized for a developer. Everything is centralized."

"One of the strengths of Automation Anywhere is its user-friendly interface, which makes it accessible even to those without a development background."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"JSM's best feature is the integration with other Jira products."

"Jira is becoming quite popular and is well supported."

"One of the main advantages of JIRA is that it can be customized for our solutions."

"JIRA is an excellent tool that can cater to multiple needs and purposes, and the fact that we can use it for multiple tasks alone makes it scalable and very good at what it does."

"Compared to other solutions, Jira Service Management is really reasonable regarding price and speed."

"The Jira interface is very good."

"It is 100% stable."

"There are two things that I value very much about this product. One is the service levels management – the SLA agreement management part of it – and knowledge management."

More JIRA Service Management pros

"All ITSM functionalities of SymphonyAI IT Service Management, including incident, problem, change, service request, and their out-of-the-box functionalities, are pretty good."

"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."

"The most valuable feature is remote access. People are working from home, and we can take remote access through it."

"It is a good tool to use."

"The product has the best features for ITSM."

"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."

Cons

"In the age of AARI and Automation Anywhere 2019 IQ Bot, the biggest challenges for me and my company are understanding the product and implementing it at the right place."

"Automation Anywhere can improve the product in potential areas of improvement with respect to automation and AI."

"It does not easily integrate with customized solutions."

"Migration is a little challenging since it requires direct integration with DB, credential vault and all that."

"Sometimes, the recorder from Automation Anywhere does not work well and is inaccurate. This should be improved."

"IQ Bot does have some limitations."

"Because I am using an older version, I am rating the scalability as a seven out of 10. I feel a lack of convenience when I try to scale it."

"The product is not working sometimes with the methods we prefer."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Generally requires the purchase of additional plugins."

"From the customer side, it's not friendly used compared to other competitors, like ServiceNow or BMC. It's also not fully ITSM management if you compare it with ServiceNow or BMC. They have a full model of ITSM. In BMC they have TrueSight, they have Discovery, which helps IT to discover IT equipment with a serial number, with the specs, capacity of the server."

"The product does not allow customization of reports."

"The interface could always be updated and improved."

"I would like to see improvement in the ability to filter completed tasks."

"Technical support is so-so. Some of them are good, some bad."

"The performance in cloud service management could be improved."

"It is pretty complex to move between the test environment and the production environment. There is potential for improvement."

More JIRA Service Management cons

"Integration was a major limitation with SummitAI."

"There could be flexibility in terms of customization."

"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."

"SummitAI IT Management Suite's project management and operational management features could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Yearly, our licensing costs are about $90,000 to $100,000. There will be additional licensing costs when we add more Bot Runners to our infrastructure."

"They are already coming out with a community license, which is really good. That's something that I wish to have."

"The cost is high for small-scale businesses but it is fine for medium and large enterprises. Its high licensing cost may affect small-scale businesses. Reducing licensing costs would benefit many users."

"Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."

"There is an annual subscription for Automation Anywhere."

"Its cost is good."

"Its usage is expensive for us because my user base is mostly in Manila and KL. The unit cost of labor is cheaper there than in the U.S. or Australia, which puts a bit more stress on how to get a positive ROI while continuing to use it."

"UiPath is exceptionally more expensive than Automation Anywhere. UiPath is far ahead of its competition, but in terms of finances, Automation Anywhere offers better value and is more effective for organizations seeking cost-effective solutions."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"We have paid $20,000 recently for a one-year license for our on-prem server."

"This is pricey solution. Should we move to using all cloud solutions in our business, we may move to different tools that have multiple functionality versus having a solution for each area. This would be too pricey and we would need to replace Jira with a different solution that also offers other features."

"JIRA Service Management's pricing is pretty decent compared to competitors. I rate the pricing an eight to nine on a scale of one to ten."

"I would suggest to always buy licenses through an Atlassian partner, so you can also rely on their expertise."

"The pricing is very competitive and I think that it is okay."

"The price of the solution is becoming expensive and it should be reduced."

"We need a license because we have a higher number than the free part."

"The license we use is on a yearly basis. As a Solution Partner, we were using the free one and were using the free plugins. We were also giving our own plugins to the Atlassian Solution Partners for free. We don't pay anything to Atlassian."

More JIRA Service Management pricing and cost advice

"The product's cost is average."

"We have a regular license."

"SummitAI IT Management Suite's pricing is a bit expensive."
