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.

Effective document automation with strong integration capabilities and very good support
Our primary use case for Nintex RPA involves getting documents from emails, reading those documents, and transferring them from the IRD to finance. We are also exploring the LP and Intech features for more advanced use cases Nintex RPA helps our government and public sector customers with…
CV
CTO at Atheneum
Simplifies integrations and is suitable for large companies
Sometimes, when our company develops using the latest technology, the knowledge is not yet cycled down to the tool's support team. The tool's support team is not mature enough to handle the tool. The promotion of a feature before it is mature may cause issues, and I feel that sometimes the deployment of such features is a little too early. The tool will release a feature, but it will have bugs in it. We face challenges because the tool's team doesn't have the knowledge to deal with the issues in the product's new features. When SAP develops something, if the tool's team doesn't know how to support it, it becomes a problem because now we have to access developers to get the information that is not readily available.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Our experience with technical support at Automation Anywhere has been great. They have been very helpful, especially during the PoC, processes which are sort of early on in their sales cycle, or when we were just starting with Automation Anywhere a couple of years ago. We got great support for getting it onboarded in-house and getting our team up to speed. So, we have found it to be a great partnership."
"Automation Anywhere has helped my company with APIs. We are currently in a project to create APIs for our core banking service and other transactional systems, migrating from another integration technology to API."
"I like the OCR feature, where we can capture information from PDFs."
"We use IQ Bot for invoice processing. It can be any type of document. It could be a PDF or any sort of document. It will convert those PDFs into CSV files, which is a structured format. It takes it from an unstructured to structured format. That is why we use IQ Bot."
"Earlier users were converting the unstructured data from the PDF into the structured format to process the task but now, this activity is replaced by IQ Bot."
"The capacity to use Automation Anywhere in the cloud is the most valuable feature."
"It increased productivity; it raised the productivity percentage of individuals 20 to 35%, and we also saw cost reduction."
"I think that one of the coolest features that what Automation Anywhere has come up with is AI Sense. I see an immense potential there. Using AI Sense, we can automate outside Citrix. That's going to remove the client dependency or overall automation journey, and that can give lot of optimization, cost saving, and the time to market."
"I primarily use Kryon RPA for attended and unattended bots and back-office automation, and I've also used it for fulfillment cases in the retail domain, where it's been working quite well."
"The initial setup process is easy."
"Once I decide a process is suitable as a Kryon solution, the cycle of automation is quite quick. I learn about the manual process and I'm one of the two guys who program the Kryon environment. It's relatively simple. There are many details, but once you understand the concept it is quite easy."
"Those 15,000 hours saved are a fantastic result and we're at a 99 percent success rate."
"The bot is typically about twice as fast as a person and more accurate, as long as the data going in is good. That is the biggest advantage."
"Customer service gets a rating of 100 percent."
"In the last month, we achieved 11,000 activities done by robot, before Kryon we did 500 each month."
"Nintex RPA doesn't require much coding, and you can drag and drop the activities."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it offers an integrated development environment."
 

Cons

"We did face some issues last year when there was an upgrade in Automation Anywhere control room, and at that time our web application automations were failing."
"There should be a meeting between the Automation Anywhere team and the end-users to understand whether the process can be made to work on the first attempt."
"We have faced some downtime and crashes with the system, but with the cooperation of the Automation Anywhere team, we have been able to contain that."
"The main request I have for Automation Anywhere is to focus more on technical demonstrations."
"Automation Anywhere is not very scalable because the update and upgrade process requires immense effort from the IT organization to do a tool check."
"We face issues when we need to increase volumes. Currently, it is failing for some reason, and we don't know the reason. It fails or stops, then we need to see what is going on. We have to fix that, then our developers need to rerun it. These are mostly practical challenges for our team who uses it on daily basis."
"They could improve around continuous integration, e.g., Jenkins and GitHub, stating how you could use those products and integrating them into Automation Anywhere."
"More interactions with PDFs would be great for Automation Anywhere."
"At first, we had problems with the object detection but in this latest release it has been better, and I think it keeps getting better."
"From our experience, the product is not suitable for end users."
"There could be some features to fix compatibility issues with firmware."
"I would like to see a better OCR solution."
"What we are lacking is OCR, the ability to read text."
"Extracting meaningful data requires significant effort. You need a dedicated business analyst who can understand the output."
"I would improve the object recognition features, making it not linked to the screen resolution or the position."
"The fact is that we found this bug something like six months ago and it's still not in the new version."
"The tool's support team is not mature enough to handle the tool."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They sell it by license, but if they could charge by case or by interaction, that might be better. Right now, it's expensive when you want to scale or use them for simple processes."
"Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."
"The Automation Anywhere license is affordable and not complex."
"I believe it is $10,000 for Bot Creator."
"The price for Automation Anywhere is reasonable."
"It has good licensing costs which are average for the market."
"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."
"Automation Anywhere University is pretty good. They make it available free for everyone."
"Licensing costs are about $100,000 a year without any additional costs."
"We have a yearly license. It's about $5,000 per year."
"Kryon is slightly more expensive compared to UiPath."
"Can't beat the price... There are different pricing levels for every bot or unattended bot. You can buy however many you want. You'll need an additional virtual machine for it to work on."
"For an unattended robot it's $6000 a month."
"It is very cheap. I would rate the pricing a three out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"We've more than broken even over on the license. Year to date, we are at $120,000 in savings."
"Compared to its competitors, Kryon RPA's pricing is very competitive."
"The product is not cheaply priced."
