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.

Rapid delivery has transformed complex enterprise apps and supports faster cross-domain projects
Every platform or low-code platform tool is quite good in its own area, but there is always space to groom or enhance or improve. The same is with OutSystems as well. A couple of things from the integration point of view can be enhanced. If your application or the enterprise organization is tackling a huge data application where you have bulk amounts of data, it becomes a challenge for all the technologies and the same with OutSystems. You have to design your architecture in a very magnificent and decent way so that how you process your data so that load can be easily balanced. Data handling and huge data handling is a kind of challenge you may need to face. Then we have some vendor lock-in. If you are trying to migrate your application from OutSystems, then you probably get into this vendor lock-in system. Some organization may face challenges if some organization is on a small scale size. The small scale businesses may find OutSystems costly because of its high cost and pricing due to the licensing cost. Apart from that, OutSystems really plays well, and it needs a learning curve. If a traditional application or programming is there which your developers are skilled into and they are directly deployed into OutSystems, it may take some significant amount of time for them to get comfortable with OutSystems. There is a learning curve. OutSystems community is already in place, but it can more be enhanced regarding some aspects. They did organize lots of bootcamps and other user groups as well, but those can also be improved from the documentation point of view and having some integration guidebook as well. A couple of things which can be improved into OutSystems include the licensing cost, the vendor lock-in side, the learning curve, couple of integration aspects and customizations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We are getting massive efficiencies across our back office, internally."
"The primary use case is automation of processes for people services, such as data management of the employees, and financial processes, like reporting, financial reporting, and month-end closing activities."
"Some processes that have taken 24 hours for our guys to do, now take seven to eight hours for our bots."
"Automation Anywhere is very easy to use; it's a low-code platform that a person who doesn't have any technical knowledge can use."
"It is easy to install and use."
"AARI allows business users to trigger the bot, so I do not have to schedule everything. This convenience allows users to utilize it as they need. I can set it up to provide users with a form to fill in all required information, and then the bot operates based on those specifications. AARI is very convenient, and that is their biggest selling point."
"The ability to automate repetetive tasks and processing that should not require human intervention."
"It is easy to automate SAP by using Cloning and Metabot."
"NewgenONE's document management and workflow approach tools are very useful."
"The most valuable feature of OutSystems is the drag and drop and toolchains in the small AI developing environment. Additionally, the documentation is helpful."
"OutSystems' best feature is that you can build tests with the flow, so even the tests are made in the PDD framework in a low-code way."
"Let's assume a project in .NET, native .NET, or Java takes around 12 months. In OutSystems, we can build that application in four to five months."
"Our previous solution had other overheads such as release management, version management, code management, monitoring, etc., all of which are built-in with OutSystems."
"Once built, web/mobile components can be reused in all new developments. In addition, the OutSystems Forge is very useful. We can exchange components and even already-built applications, reducing costs to build specific solutions."
"I really like the one-click publish feature in OutSystems. In other development tools/languages, it's not as easy. I also like how easily I can manage all my projects in one place."
"The product is mostly stable."
"It is easy to use."
 

Cons

"Unfortunately, this process was not used for a long time due to latency issues and a functionality gap."
"My opinion is that we need to have a video or tutorial on how to implement these features, as well as seeing what results to expect."
"In Automation Anywhere, the logging process is manual."
"When it comes to stability, complex bots always have issues."
"They need to improve the real-time data and analytics."
"One of the things that we did was purchase the solution originally through IBM, as they had an value-added layer on top of it. Once we had another group come on, they purchased additional bots directly from Automation Anywhere, and they wouldn't integrate well. We had to uninstall the solution that we had purchased from IBM and reinstall those bots to move forward."
"We have done some automation of incoming documents, but it has been somewhat hard."
"Automation Anywhere has a persistent click-related issue that can make automation difficult, particularly in unattended environments."
"Setting up NewgenONE is still a technical task. Simplifying the setup process would make it easier for users."
"The technical support is not very good but I still give it a six out of 10."
"There is room for improvement in technical support."
"Reporting is very light."
"One of the biggest areas for improvement is that every time an existing data element is modified, it creates a new data element. It doesn't really modify that particular data element. So, a user has to follow an extra step of removing the existing data element and bringing in the new and modified data element that is being added, which sort of goes into negative productivity."
"The technical support is quite good, although it could be better: it currently fluctuates a little depending on how busy they are."
"The tool needs to improve the efficiency of its widgets."
"The product's high price is an area of concern, where improvements are required."
"Writing custom code still needs to be done via Integration Studio. This might have been added to the IDE."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a free trial so that they can get an overview, and there are different licenses that are very affordable and can suit every business model."
"The setup and licensing cost is affordable, and it is not exaggerated like UiPath."
"It is not cheap, but we are able to get an ROI."
"Time and monetary savings can range from 20 to 90 percent."
"We have seen ROI on one of the process, but not on the other processes yet."
"While calculating the setup cost you should account for the server, virtual machines, product licenses, maintenance costs, and running costs."
"I am not responsible for the pricing part, but I know the pricing is competitive compared to other tools."
"Subscription for Automation Anywhere (AA) is paid yearly."
Information not available
"OutSystems is a very expensive solution, and it has to be cheaper."
"There are no additional costs with the standard license."
"I think the pricing for OutSystems is comparable with similar solutions. I would place it somewhere in the middle. We pay for the bundle and don't pay anything extra in terms of licensing and other fees."
"There is a free trial to use this solution and other options available, such as enterprise. There are different subscription plans."
"The tool’s licensing is based on the user’s usage."
"OutSystems is an expensive product. My company has to make monthly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution."
"The product is expensive and I would rate its pricing a seven out of ten. You need to pay a yearly subscription to use the product."
"Pricing could be a concern. You have to pay yearly, even after you have completed your development."
