Nadeem K.

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.

Software Asset Manager Lead at Boeing at a transportation company with 10,001+ employees

A stable and clever solution, but it is very complex and it needs a lot of improvements

There are a lot of things that need improvement. Software recognition, software licensing, software compliance, data inputs, reporting, and support are some of the areas. It needs a discovery tool of its own. You have to get that from other Micro Focus products, which means you have to pay more to get those products.

reviewer2060121

Product Line Manager at a tech consulting company with 11-50 employees

Unified monitoring has improved event handling but needs stronger AI automation and modern dashboards

OpenText AI Operations Management could benefit from a fully integrated AI system, which we call AIOps. A fully integrated AI operations system would be valuable in the future. Additionally, the UI experience could be more comfortable. We are not using predictive features in OpenText AI Operations Management such as anomaly detection. In the future, we may be able to operate with our customer, but we need to decide this collectively. You need to see the big picture and understand what the customer's pain points are to find the right tuning. Normally, predictive features can be more useful, but this is an end-to-end solution that needs to be customized. You need to understand the exact customer needs. The predictive analytics feature is very close to being integrated, but it is not fully integrated at this time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"When it comes to financials, Automation Anywhere has done amazing work in ensuring not only the speed and accuracy of the bot, but also the compliance and error controls through which the bot executes the job at very high satisfaction and tolerance levels."

"We have never not had a yearly ROI; we've always greatly exceeded the cost of, or the investment in, the tool and it is saving us more than millions of dollars a year."

"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."

"Automation Anywhere (AA) is really fast on the development side. It's an efficient and intelligent RPA tool, with a good engine and good connectors."

"One of the notable benefits we've realized from Automation Anywhere is a significant reduction in errors when processing data, which improves both revenue accuracy and operational efficiency."

"The most valuable feature in this solution is the IQ Bot."

"The flexibility of Automation Anywhere's truly universal orchestration in integrating with different systems and models has been great for us because we are new to the mission tools and had our data scattered in Salesforce and Oracle Analytics, yet Automation Anywhere has smooth integration with those apps and about ninety percent of our apps are supported, integrating particularly well with Salesforce where our client data and service requests are managed."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"It is stable and scalable."

"Actually we have now automatic and immediate control of assets usage, and we can now better manage our assets pool and get benefits through that."

"We are constantly using this product and we are constantly improving this product."

"This product can be customized according to the needs of any company."

"The most important features are the flexibility of the product and the way that we can use it to ensure software compliance within our organization."

"It is stable."

"It's really the basis for everything we do for event management, for enterprise management."

"The implementation of Operation Manager made it possible to centralize the events of several supervision tools such as SiteScope, Network Node Manager or Nagios, and all the enrichment part allowed to reduce the processing time of support tickets because all the information was already present in the alarm."

"Transparency is one of the big features, and we reduced our attempt to repair by forty percent."

"The most valuable feature is the seamless monitoring of both Windows and Unix servers."

"The broad integration possibilities, I'd say, with any kind of product, are probably the most valuable feature."

"OpsBridge is powerful, comprehensive, and well suited to organizations with the budget to justify it."

"The most valuable aspect of Operations Bridge for us is its integration capabilities."

More OpenText AI Operations Management pros

Cons

"The dashboard has room for improvement."

"Automation Anywhere's network has room for improvement."

"Understanding what we wanted to do the tool after setup, that was complex."

"For beginners learning Automation Anywhere, there should be predefined templates to start creating a task bot. Instead of dragging and dropping action commands and doing error handling, there should be predefined templates that they can directly use."

"The accuracy in Web Recorder needs to be improved, defective outputs found most of the time (not sure if is a website side issue)."

"Automation Anywhere is a tool. It is not able to go ahead and extract the hand-written documents. Most of the automation tools that we have in the market are not able to get an accuracy of close to 80 to 90 percent on hand-written documents. So, I'm eagerly looking at a release from Automation Anywhere, wherein they could plug in an LP or look at some sort of a platform which could convert hand-written documents into a readable format. If they could bring in they own platform, this would make a big in-roads for the entire automation industry."

"Though the courses in the certification's learning hub are great and awesome, there is some more space for adding more explained contents."

"With Oracle and ServiceNow, there seem to be challenges. With SAP, it worked very well."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"The technology used is outdated, the interface is outdated, the database is outdated, everything is outdated."

"There are a lot of things that need improvement. Software recognition, software licensing, software compliance, data inputs, reporting, and support are some of the areas."

"Technical support is very frustrating because we have probably 12 or 15 years’ experience with the products."

"The usability of this product is still out-of-date and could be improved. The interface could be improved."

"Reporting has to be tackled a bit more. Conceptually, it is there and conceptually it is amazing, but somehow the module itself is suffering."

"What needs improvement in Micro Focus Operations Bridge is its resource heaviness because you need many resources to deploy and support it. It's a good solution for larger organizations, but for small businesses, not so much."

"The solution is overall "heavy", requiring multiple servers, even without HA."

"The UI could be better. The ease of use, deployment, upgrades, and licensing could be better."

"It is a very complicated product. It's difficult to manage. Nowadays, products are very easy to manage, deploy, and integrate, but Operations Bridge is very complicated to manage."

"Depending on where you land, if you get stuck in generic level-two support, then it’s quite uninspiring – that’s probably the best description."

"Initial setup and deployment has been fairly complex. There are specialized skills and expertise required to run deployments."

"It can be cumbersome to get up and running. And it's very expensive."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We save approximately 10,000 hours per year."

"Cost is the biggest area in need of improvement for Automation Anywhere. Annually it's $250,000. That's what deterred us right away."

"Costs savings have been seen by employing bots for multiple shifts instead of people."

"In the Indian market, I feel that for mid-size companies, such as ourselves, that having multiple bots costs a lot. If Automation Anywhere wants to expand in the Indian market, they will need to look at their pricing."

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

"It is subscription-based. They have different schemes. The price depends on how you negotiate with the local partner or local representative in your country."

"There are a lot of savings in terms of effort and time as well as costs. Automation Anywhere automates a lot of processes. It allows an organization to save the efforts of a lot people. It saves a lot of time because people can't work a whole day (24/7), but Automation Anywhere bots can."

"Approximately, for a developer, it is around $750 for a license a year. For Bot Runners, it is about $550."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"From my experience, Asset Manager is expensive."

"The cost is very high."

"The licensing cost for this solution is approximately $1,000 USD."

"As OpsBridge is a suite of products bundled together, you may find yourself paying for software functionality that you don't actually use, e.g. Real User Monitor (RUM)."

"Setup costs can be high depending on the partner, but it is worth it."

"Pricing is very flexible and depends on the modules selected as per the requirement."

"It is competitive."

"The licensing model for Micro Focus Operations Bridge is unit-based so it can be one device or ten devices depending on your situation or model. Cost-wise, it's much more if you have more devices and features such as infrastructure monitoring, analytic dashboard, and business dashboard in your model."
