Venkat Sivaprakash

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.

Software Developer at a consultancy with 51-200 employees

Chat-based requests have streamlined daily workflows

Moveworks can definitely be improved. Currently, we have to do most of the things on our own, such as creating UI and APIs for how things will work. There are not many things that Moveworks is supporting right now. I would say it should have some features that are already present in other bots, so they should focus on those more. Currently, Moveworks has UI policy restrictions and client script restrictions. I think they should edit it so that all these UI policies and other things are allowed. If there are some forms in Moveworks, it should capture that form and ask it in the chat from the user, taking answers one by one, rather than presenting a form to users. This would have a very positive impact.

Hemanthreddy Vakiti

Data engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Structured workflows have improved SLA compliance and now support prioritized incident handling

I think the licensing and pricing of ServiceNow is quite expensive compared to other tools. For large organizations, it is acceptable, but specifically for small and medium organizations to track incidents or change requests, ServiceNow is quite expensive. Sometimes performance can be slow when workflows and integrations are configured for complex tasks. For advanced customizations or advanced features which we rarely use, the documentation is not up to standard. The documentation needs to be improved for advanced customization features. However, the platform is stable overall and the features are quite good. The user experience and performance concerns I mentioned are areas I want to be improved. When many workflows and interactions are configured, performance is slow. For the features it is providing, it is quite expensive. If these performance features are improved, we can easily pay that price and get the return on investment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"When anybody talks about Robotic Process Automation, Automation Anywhere is the first thing that comes to my mind."

"The way templates can be configured is quite simple - it's a matter of drag and drop."

"The ROI on major bots has been phenomenal."

"We have automated the daily reports and it will trigger automatically once jobs are completed from the backend database which has saved a lot of extra work for our team, saving workforce and time."

"The flexibility: If there is anything the tool cannot do, we have the ability to make a MetaBot to achieve that functionality. The overall flexibility of the tool makes it very useful for us in our landscape."

"AA provides multiple features such as Windows actions, Database actions, Conditional Actions, Files/Folder Actions, Loop actions, Internet actions, and Clipboard actions. I have used mostly all of these features."

"Using the Automation Anywhere University, you can go and train yourself to be an expert in the tool."

"Automation Anywhere has significantly improved our organization's efficiency. Across various processes, we have achieved a 90% time savings for each use case, making our workflow much more streamlined and productive."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"Moveworks is a very good platform if you utilize it well."

"The solution saves us approximately three-quarters of a million dollars per year."

"Moveworks has positively impacted our organization by lowering ServiceNow service desk calls by 90%, as users now prefer to ask questions through Moveworks in Teams before calling for help."

"Moveworks has reduced employee time because initially, employees used to spend so much time going to the third party to do all those jobs, and now they can simply do it via Otter, which is Moveworks, and this has saved much time and provided accurate results as well."

"It is a very promising product. They have a new release every six months. They're investing quite a lot, and you can do many creative things with the product. If you know how it works, you can have stricter rules in the product."

"The solution helps us to collaborate and it's great that it is knowledge-based."

"Some of the valuable features I have found the solution to have are it can serve many different types of businesses, it has strong platform capabilities, provides application development, built-in predictive intelligence, and performance analytics reports."

"The most valuable feature is the flexibility of development for customization."

"ServiceNow is a very good tool."

"I recommend ServiceNow due to its stability and good security."

"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the possibility of the application development cap so that we can digitize workflows."

"We recently moved to ServiceNow from HP Service Manager about two years ago and it's been leaps and bounds just better than what we had before."

More ServiceNow pros

Cons

"Automation Anywhere is not very scalable because the update and upgrade process requires immense effort from the IT organization to do a tool check."

"To improve the product, one aspect that Automation Anywhere can work on is archiving legacy data effectively. Currently, data older than current versions remains on the server, slowing the system down."

"The debugger is also a weakness of the tool, forcing the developer to use error handling or message box to map errors. Few applications take more time for loading when integrated."

"As a developer or user, I feel that the performance of the overall package could be made a little better or reliable."

"The product needs improvements in dealing with remote servers and providing more APIs that will be used with other systems."

"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."

"We face issues with Excel file creation. I’m trying to create a file in Excel .xls, it is getting corrupted."

"They need to improve the REST Api documentation because it is not well detailed or clear enough for beginners, and they need to provide some out-of-the-box AI and ML functions such as image classification and object identification."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Moveworks can definitely be improved. Currently, we have to do most of the things on our own, such as creating UI and APIs for how things will work."

"There is always room for improvement, though it depends on how complicated one wants to make it."

"Customer support has been adequate; I would rate it around seven out of ten, as support often forwards cases to developers after collecting details."

"More use cases can be added to the agent marketplace and the YAML or the DSL methods can be simplified, adding more methods to make it easier for us to create compound actions."

"I think within knowledge management the editor could be greatly improved. To me it's very archaic looking."

"The biggest issue that I see is the way that they license some of their add-on products."

"They can maybe improve the area of agile project management. They do have user storyboards and other things, but we kind of lean on Jira for that work. This is perhaps an area that could be looked at a little more."

"There was an outage at the ServiceNow data center servers, especially on the eastern site. Two weeks later we found out about it through some other call, not to the engineer and it was not notified anywhere on the system."

"I find some features are difficult to use."

"With ServiceNow, you have to do a lot of manipulation ahead of time to get to what that end state is."

"I would like to see more functionality in terms of custom workflows, not impacting the overall platform health."

"The setup was time-consuming and required a lot of internal resources."

More ServiceNow cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing model can be a bit more flexible."

"Initially, they charged a premium, but now the rest of the vendors have increased their overall pricing and Automation Anywhere is not that high at this time. It's pretty viable."

"Its price is competitive with all other products in the market."

"Automation Anywhere's pricing falls within the mid-range, but the long-term benefits outweigh the initial investment."

"It has good licensing costs which are average for the market."

"If we count the integrations that we have done with Appian, which is where a lot of our savings is from, we are well over a million dollars in savings. This is from only doing development for about a year and a half."

"The price of Automation Anywhere is a little higher than some of the competition, such as UiPath. However, depending on the use case and other factors we are able to receive some discounts."

"I am not involved in the pricing, but based on what I hear from our central RPA team, it is not very expensive; it is also not cheap. Its price is in the midrange."

Information not available

"I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten. The pricing for ServiceNow is based on a SaaS platform with annual contracts. However, it may not offer much flexibility for adjusting usage in the short term."

"I am from Brazil. For Latin American markets, ServiceNow is very expensive as compared to other vendors, such as VMware."

"There is an annual subscription to use this solution."

"The licensing expenses are excessively high."

"The solution is priced for medium to enterprises sized businesses. However, it is expensive compared to competitors."

"It is an expensive platform."

"It's sold as a less expensive solution, but it has to be highly modified. That's where you get into the cost."

"ServiceNow pricing is an art, not a science. The deal depends on how commercially savvy you are, which does make it something that is quite difficult to get right. It is most definitely an opportunity area for ServiceNow to improve and have more visibility around pricing of the different products within the platform."
