Venkat Sivaprakash - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Increases productivity with automation and robust orchestration capabilities
The community is very powerful, with extensive knowledge bases available. There are ready-made workflows, integration with other products, a nice user interface, and reporting. The tool is flexible, agent-based or agentless. It allows significant automation and has robust orchestration and reporting capabilities. It is easy to configure and use, leading to increased efficiency across our IT processes.
Mohammed Zaman - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Lead Developer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
It's easy to create Python libraries and custom scripts for a particular client and general use cases
We've had conversations with the head of Robocorp over Slack about things we want to improve. We want to introduce some packages, but the authentication tokens and many other things are not there. We can do it in Python, but the custom packages are unavailable. We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities. I don't know if they have updated the UI in the latest version, but they could improve that. The UI selector isn't that great. It would be nice to take elements from the console and customize parts. Everything is based on command lines, which I do not like. A flow chart with block items would be good for optimizing code. I would also like more support tools for developers so it's easier to understand when passing code to others.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Automation Anywhere was easier to learn for the developers. It has a lot of out of box features when it comes to SAP, Excel, and others."
"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."
"The return on investment we see from Automation Anywhere is significant; particularly, the FTE savings represent a big return."
"From an organizational perspective, it has improved how we work and determine, "Is there a better way to do things?" and, "How can we challenge the status quo?" This builds a continuous improvement mindset throughout our organization."
"With Automation Anywhere you can read and extract CSV data easily. You don't need multiple commands to read it."
"The reporting capabilities are pretty nice."
"Automation Anywhere is one of the leading RPA tool vendors and they have done splendid work on improving their tool."
"The features that help us satisfy the needs of the customer to overcome mundane activities using task bots and meta bots are the most valuable along with the rich controls in the control room. The developer team is able to capture all the necessary steps without much hassle with the visual designer and the ability to test each step of automation has helped in delivering error-free automation to our customer."
"As an integrator of Operations Orchestration, we find that the most valuable feature is really the support that HP provides."
"The centralization of the administration is what's most valuable for us."
"The product is good functionality-wise. I am impressed with the tool's flexibility in customization."
"It’s saved 100’s of man hours monthly."
"This solution enables the automation of workflow."
"We have reduced the amount of time it would take to resolve an incident or to send an escalation to a customer, and it has saved us many man hours."
"This solution basically does everything that we need it to do."
"The ease of use is most valuable."
"The price is good."
"The ability to create separate organizations on this platform makes it easier to bill each of the clients separately."
"I have worked with UiPath and Automation Anywhere previously. Robocorp offers an improved development style and support as well as flexibility of its tools. You can easily develop custom libraries in Robocorp."
"Robocorp is based on Python, so you can use Python scripts and create libraries for your use cases. Building libraries and custom scripts for a particular client and general use cases is easy. We can reuse those scripts for other clients, so we start seeing benefits quickly."
"Time complexity is reduced and the execution speed is much higher."
"It offers high scalability and enables automation in ways that haven't been possible before."
"I can use it as a library by importing Python scripts, allowing me to access its many features while working with coding."
"The product has a valuable business process automation feature."
 

Cons

"In the current organization, we had trouble initially because I think the documentation and support could be better than what it is now."
"I have had a couple of crashes and issues."
"It still uses old, deprecated Microsoft components that have an end date."
"When I change the name of a variable in the Variable Manager, I would really like it to change in the code."
"An additional feature we would like to see is the inclusion of a particular kind of scripting in the development environment itself."
"Automation Anywhere could improve its integration with Python and other programming languages."
"We have a third bot which takes longer being automated than it did with the human process."
"We are having some challenges when it comes to stability."
"If you're running it in a Windows environment, you're tied to the inefficiency and quirkiness of Windows."
"We have used technical support and we've had our ups and downs with them."
"It takes a lot of resources to implement and support it, which is expensive."
"Customer Service: Below average, 2/10. A lot is needed to be improved upon in their customer service."
"I would prefer the addition of ready-made workflows for common scenarios such as Oracle database switchovers or Exchange server scenarios."
"Customer service is one of those areas that definitely needs to be improved. 3.5 out of 10 Technical Support: Needs improvement."
"The one feature that would be useful for us would be integration of more automation with other solutions."
"Faster integration with different applications."
"An additional feature I'm looking for in Robocorp is SAP automation."
"They should fully develop Robocorp Studio because it would attract a lot of people to the Robocorp platform."
"We use the latest version of the process studio and it takes up a lot of CPU storage. In our case, this has been up to 14 GB of storage."
"I preferred the user interface in the older versions. When troubleshooting, it's sometimes hard to find details about where things went wrong. You need to search a little harder. It takes more clicks to get to where you want to go. It can be somewhat confusing. When you run a process that fails, it takes you somewhere you may not expect."
"Robocorp is still in development, so most of the keywords are a bit confusing. I have to alter lots of automation steps between processing and development. However, Selenium is due for an update soon, and Robcorp is addressing some of the limitations caused by the previous Selenium version."
"We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities."
"It would be better if it were more user-friendly for non-technical users. It would be better if they had some drag-and-drop features to create logic."
"I don't like the complexity of deployment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is fair. My company is part of a big organization, so the pricing is very advantageous."
"The price of this product is good."
"I think the pricing is reasonable, but clients often perceive it as expensive."
"Their overall pricing falls in the middle of the market. Cost-wise, Automation Anywhere is quite expensive because of their analytics, IQ Bots, and MetaBots. For a standalone machine, the pricing is okay. When adding in the licensing for IQ Bots (or MetaBots), it can become quite costly."
"I really enjoy the pricing options with Automation Anywhere, as they are able to flex their ability to adapt to the needs of the customer really well."
"The cost of Automation Anywhere is high in Turkey due to the weak economy."
"Automation Anywhere is thought to be quite expensive, especially for smaller organizations."
"We are currently negotiating a contract. Depending upon that, we will definitely look at increasing usage."
"I do not have experience with the pricing or licensing of the product."
"The tool is expensive. I rate the tool a six if one is cheap and ten is very expensive."
"The cost is very high compared to anything else available."
"It's a cost-effective solution."
"Robocorp is much better in terms of pricing compared to UiPath."
"You don't have to pay for the license. You have to pay for the time you use it."
"The solution is a very affordable price."
"The price is cheaper than other competitors. I would rate the cost as one out of five."
"The product has good pricing."
"In terms of licenses, there is a return on investment in that area."
"The pricing is fine."
