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

"MetaBots are useful when connecting to websites or to forms with objects that need to be captured."
"IQ Bot is the most important feature and it has been extensively used by our clients."
"Scheduling helps to generate and send reports without any delay."
"We get positive feedback from the client regarding the processes that we have developed, as it saves a lot of their manual time and most of their work is done by the bot, without any human intervention."
"We have saved around 90% of the time that would be required to perform tasks manually."
"We have tried several tools in the industry, and we have not been able to automate to the same level as provided by this solution."
"We have been able to take resources that have been doing manual work and putting them into more productive work."
"It improved on 40+ % of manual effort which was a pain point for project budget and Project team SMEs."
"We use Kryon Studio to develop new wizards and we use the features to capture elements from the screen and automate processes... The screen capture allows us to interface with systems which don't have an API, or where the API is very expensive, and it allows us to do on-screen integration."
"What I like most about Kryon RPA is the user experience. I also find the layout and design of the solution better for programming compared to other RPA solutions."
"In the testing area there is a good ROI, because we're now capable of doing things that we couldn't before, completely, and it's a game-changer."
"All our users have no technical background, but Kryon is really simple and intuitive and our business adapted very quickly and easily, which is why we love the system so much and are always trying to put more processes into the system and make more use cases because of the simplicity and the intuitive nature of the system."
"We have been using Kryon Process Discovery for about a year now. With our initial tests and monitoring just a couple people, we were able to identify 79 possible use cases within a one-month period."
"The advanced Excel functionalities are really convenient because we work a lot with spreadsheets. It’s also easy to use the HTML selectors. It’s just a click and it picks it up. There’s not a lot of no hard-coding with it."
"The friendliness of the software is good because people without any technical background can start off on it. This solution makes it easy for us to use it, as there is no learning curve. With no learning curve, the development time turnaround decreases."
"Kryon RPA is very stable - we've not had many disruptions, and the product is updated regularly."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it offers an integrated development environment."
 

Cons

"My current and previous companies have had stability issues."
"MetaBot still needs to be optimized, though Version 11.3 did integrate all the commands into it. We are not able to see all the lines of code which are executed in MetaBot."
"When working with Excel, unlike other tools such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere does not have the standard variables for .Net data types."
"Automation Anywhere is not fully compatible with browsers other than Internet Explorer while working with web extraction."
"There are a number of current tools which can be improved because they have many limitations. Like some better controls in emails, and better support for features in Excel and PDF."
"The initial setup for the program was not straightforward. It was definitely complex."
"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."
"Many clients use the Citrix environment but AA has very low functionality to automate a Citrix environment."
"I’m not sure yet what I think about the stability of Kryon because we haven't been able to get things constantly running and working."
"We need stronger governance to know, when a transaction is done, whether it worked or failed; strong logging. That would be helpful."
"We need better training and community support in Indonesia."
"From our experience, the product is not suitable for end users."
"Nintex RPA is not suitable for PDF automation."
"When a project is very big, a lot of memory is taken up. Then, machines don't have enough memory. This could be improved upon to be more efficient."
"The product requires some more time in development. It still has some bugs and some things to work out. They're constantly releasing. They need to continue working out the general issues of using the product at scale, first and foremost."
"We would like to see having a little more specific documentation, or some of the examples be easier to find."
"The tool's support team is not mature enough to handle the tool."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a few licenses. They cost roughly $10,000 each."
"Automation Anywhere University is pretty good. They make it available free for everyone."
"The Automation Anywhere license is affordable and not complex."
"The pricing is fair. My company is part of a big organization, so the pricing is very advantageous."
"It's fine. However, I'm concerned with the credits in terms of the pricing for the AI models. It is understandable that the new ones are more expensive, but the base models, after doing the pricing conversion, cost about four to ten times as much as paying directly."
"I think the solution's pricing is reasonable."
"They're very flexible around pricing and licensing."
"Although the initial implementation cost of Automation Anywhere is relatively high compared to other options, its annual subscription cost is lower than UiPath's, which has the opposite pricing structure."
"We're paying in the neighborhood of about $66,000 a year. The cost is fairly similar to its competitors' costs. It might have been a little bit more reasonable than the others, and that cost was with Process Discovery in addition."
"We have been able to alleviate two FTEs, which was a big savings for us. We were able to reuse those resources in other locations. It is over 5000 hours a year in total savings."
"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."
"Licensing costs are about $100,000 a year without any additional costs."
"We've more than broken even over on the license. Year to date, we are at $120,000 in savings."
"We have a yearly license. It's about $5,000 per year."
"They license per robot and we have 25 robots. You get so many robot licenses and can allocate those licenses to either attended, unintended, or Process Discovery bots. If you have 25 licenses, for example, you could have 20 automation bots and five process discovery. This allocation is flexible. There are also maintenance costs."
"Kryon is slightly more expensive compared to UiPath."
"The product is not cheaply priced."
