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.

A modular, easy-to-use solution that needs to improve support and include automation

There are one or two annoying things. For example, if you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself. That's annoying. If you have five items in the drop-down list or if you have a hundred, it's just pathetic. It makes no sense that you have to do that because I've never seen it not work before in any other system that I've ever worked with. If you make a list of things, most solutions automatically put it in an alphabetized order. Or it'll put it in date order, but there is some order. It doesn't just go randomly in the order you create them. For example, I might load about 20 neighborhoods into a drop-down list, starting at "a" and ending at "z." But I might miss one of the "b's" and two of the "c's," so I add them, but they are added after the "z." Then I have to go to the bottom of the list, click on the one that starts with "b," and drag it all the way up to the "b's." That's just a pain in the butt.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My experience with the deployment of the solution is positive; it's fast, and we have not encountered any problems related to that."

"Automation Anywhere is stellar and the pre-built bots on the bot store help reduce the development time and effort. The IQ Bot solution can read from scanned images and documents which has hugely benefited the mortgage processing team."

"It has allowed us to generate additional revenue without having to hire additional people."

"Just for this use case, we had around 300 tickets coming in every month. We went live last month and the tickets went down to around 80 as of August 20th. While it might touch around 100, over a period of around six months it will become zero because we have not removed all the legacy data. We are just doing it from the go date of when we went live. The target is that it will be zero after three months. So, it's working well."

"Automation Anywhere has a drag-and-drop feature eliminating the need for extensive coding."

"We mostly used the Database commands in order to make the process faster and more secure, rather than using Excel or a CSV for reading the input files."

"The tool is very easy to use and mostly user-friendly. I like that when using it I don't need much expertise."

"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."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"Auditing team uses this solution to track audit findings and follow-up."

"The SLA, speed, the comments from the agents' side, and the dashboard for agents are the most valuable features."

"One of the main advantages of JIRA is that it can be customized for our solutions. I live in Iran and we translated some parts of it into Persian and customized it with extra features. We hid other features to customize it right to the point. We provide this solution for our customers."

"It has improved our work in a number of ways. First, it has made everything much faster. Before Jira Service Management, it could take weeks to resolve a ticket."

"The most valuable features of this solution are Incident and Request Management."

"This is a flexible tool for logging and tracking issues efficiently."

"The solution offers lots of information on the website to assist with technical queries. There are also many community sites to help you troubleshoot any problems."

"I think that people should really go for it because of its ease of use."

More JIRA Service Management pros

"The fact that we can build our own modules on the solution is really quite attractive, and it's not overly complex."

"Very flexible and customizable; we appreciate being able to host it locally with direct access to the backend."

"The most valuable feature of Vtiger CRM is automation."

Cons

"They could improve the environmental stabilizing issues. There are a lot of environmental issues when rolling over from one environment to another, higher environment. This is the one thing they definitely need to look into."

"I would like to have a command that allows me to add code, like C#. As a developer, this would be helpful."

"I think it is a little bit of an ongoing struggle, because we don't deal with the infrastructure. We have a separate infrastructure team that sorts all that out. So, sometimes there are communication issues just trying to get our internal IT team onboard to run through the installs and that sort of thing. But, definitely with the new cloud version coming onboard, we'll be looking toward going to that. Hopefully it'll resolve some of that friction that comes about through the install process and complexity."

"Automation Anywhere has a persistent click-related issue that can make automation difficult, particularly in unattended environments."

"Automation Anywhere is headed in the right direction but they still have a good way to go."

"The expectations of what we thought was possible, versus what appears to be possible, were a little bit off."

"Also, we're seemingly plagued with certain technological issues or bugs."

"Automation Anywhere could assist in this transition."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"We faced challenges with integration for different frameworks like TestComplete."

"I feel JIRA Service Management could be better if the APIs from the sponsoring team provided more support and flexibility in API endpoints."

"This solution lacks features for project management. I would like to see more reports."

"Include a split configuration in a layer part to allow cloud services to have almost full admin rights in SaaS."

"JSD has some analytics, but it's pretty much basic and simple dashboards."

"The licensing model could be improved."

"An improvement they could add is a better management dashboard."

"The documentation needs improving, it's difficult to find specific procedures."

More JIRA Service Management cons

"If you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself."

"The mobile design could improve in Vtiger CRM. It could be more user-friendly."

"The charts and graphs available out of the box are pretty outdated, and you're a little limited in how you can present information on the dashboard without adding modules."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Their overall pricing falls in the middle of the market. Cost-wise, Automation Anywhere is quite expensive because of their analytics, IQ Bots, and MetaBots. For a standalone machine, the pricing is okay. When adding in the licensing for IQ Bots (or MetaBots), it can become quite costly."

"The licensing cost for Automation Anywhere is high."

"They have a ridiculously expensive bot licensing structure, especially for the Asian region."

"We have a few licenses. They cost roughly $10,000 each."

"We have saved time and money using this solution."

"We have saved customers 400% in terms of time saved by implementing this product."

"The enterprise version is expensive for small businesses and individual users."

"We have established a CoE and we take our bot opportunities based on their ROIs. The best ROI opportunity goes to development first. Our ROI opportunities are compliance, profitable growth, productivity enhancements, productivity gains, number of hours the productivity saved, and resources not available that the work can be done by the bot. However, the single most important criteria that we use to measure ROI is how much time does the bot cut down from an analyst's work, as this has the best ROI. E.g., if an analyst is spending a 100 hours of work that a bot can do in one hour, we calculate the 99 hours saved as ROI."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"Right now, there are only two of us who are both agents on the help desk and developers. We might be on the free version because we're less than three agents or users. I'm looking at Zephyr tests, which have a $10 a month flat rate, so right now, it is $10 a month. There are lots of add-ons. They do a free version, a standard version, and a premium version. In the last company, we started on $50 a month. By the time I left, we were paying $4,500 a month. That was mainly because we had 100 users on Confluence. I bought an add-on for Jira software for which we had 10 users, and that was $5 per user per month. It was costing me $500 a month, whereas it should only be $50 a month. I don't know if licensing fee has changed. I'd like our whole company to use it, but the big problem is the licensing because the Confluence side is what is really useful, but if I add 30 users to Confluence and then buy an extension for Jira software, I've got to pay for 30 licenses, even though I've only got two users in Jira software. It is the one big disadvantage of cloud software. You always have to pay for the number of seats regardless of which product you are on. This will probably severely limit how many people would use it because I'm not going to start paying $10 per user per month for a Jira software add-on when there are only two people using it."

"JSM's pricing is one of the best, starting at around $10 per user, per month, with volume discounts available."

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

"The cost has recently increased. It might be around $20 to $25 per user license."

"Jira Service Management has affordable license fees. It's $12 a month per person."

"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."

"It costs around $150 to $200 per user."

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

More JIRA Service Management pricing and cost advice

"We are using the free open-source version of Vtiger CRM."

"The price doesn't change when you add users. It's a flat fee, and that's attractive."
