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.

Works well, but its interface should be a bit more user-friendly
We use it for our process flows and levels of approvals, but I am not managing it directly Its performance, stability, and security are fine. Its interface should be a bit more user-friendly. I have been using this solution for close to a year. It is stable. It is easy to scale. We currently…

Automation has transformed document processing and frees teams to focus on higher‑value analysis
Sometimes, we encounter system errors that could be resolved via support, but connection issues are more frequent in enterprise applications. However, these can usually be solved by raising tickets if you are part of an enterprise, though we are not, which makes it somewhat challenging. It is vital to ensure the connections of UiPath Platform are maintained because it has a larger community. If UiPath Platform website included more features and documentation accessible easily, it would greatly enhance the experience. Instead of continually needing to raise support tickets, having a documentation hub where details can just be entered to retrieve required documents would be extremely beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Automation Anywhere has and continues to help us deliver multiple complex and very complex use cases in record time."
"There are many features of Automation Anywhere that were found to be most valuable like WLM, PDF integration, Advanced Excel Commands, Terminal Emulator and its commands, Interactive Forms building features of A2019 which helped us in developing UI for our front office automation and integrate it with multiple rest APIs."
"We spend less time preparing data."
"Having no restriction for any single programming language is very useful."
"For business professionals, it automates repetitive tasks and enhances efficiency and cost savings."
"The code, once developed, is pretty stable."
"We've been using a lot of object cloning and screen scraping, but we've also had success with: inbuilt email functionality, some integrations to incorporate heterogeneous systems like Python scripting, etc."
"With automation, you can reduce that effort to half an hour or an hour, so it will improve your efficiency and save you a lot of time, so you can improve your time in other work."
"What I like most is the seamlessness of the workflow capabilities."
"Its performance, stability, and security are fine."
"With UiPath and RPA, the sky's the limit; there is potential for a bunch of things that you can do."
"The most valuable feature is Studio, which allows developers to specifically focus on development."
"I would describe my experience with deploying UiPath Platform as very easy."
"UiPath is one of the best solutions in the current market industry."
"I like UiPath's Document Understanding and OCR functions. That's UiPath's advantage. It has a native OCR tool, whereas other tools do not, so it provides an end-to-end solution that covers everything. We do not need to integrate other applications."
"We have created 10-plus solutions using UiPath, and the savings that have been generated from these solutions are around $1 million."
"The product is well-integrated with different tools that can help with logging, et cetera."
"UiPath has improved my organization in many ways, helping us automate mundane and repetitive tasks, saving us lots of time, enhancing productivity, and reducing the error rate so we can complete our tasks as per client requirements."
 

Cons

"If you were to come to me and ask for an OCR to be done, I could only guarantee you about eighty percent accuracy."
"I would like to see integration better integration with Excel and SAP."
"The integration is not always seamless. Sometimes, it takes a while to get everything to communicate and be ready to go into production."
"In terms of improvements for Automation Anywhere, I would prefer to see more options in packages and pricing, including a breakdown of different features and products, which would allow us to select certain products while potentially skipping others as needed."
"They should consider being more multi-platform."
"The setup is complex because there is a lot of customization."
"Web automation capability needs to be improved."
"Blue Prism is more secure than Automation Anywhere. E.g., Blue Prism has a system that is difficult to penetrate. You can't simply go into their system and make any changes."
"Its interface should be a bit more user-friendly."
"This solution only supports basic text, but we would like to be able to insert components such as rich text, graphs, charts, pictures, and other objects."
"UiPath can improve by enabling us to target specific use cases based on the departments within an industry, rather than just focusing on the industry itself."
"I would like improvements in UiPath Studio speed. The development environment is sometimes slow, depending on the workflows, especially with legacy workflows."
"What happens when a selector breaks? That means that something has changed in the application... UiPath could do a better job of enveloping selectors to make them less fragile... That is the one area that is the biggest pain point. It happens all the time... They should reduce selector sensitivity and improve remediation when one does break."
"The speed could be improved."
"UiPath should improve its licensing because its competitors offer a cheaper and more sustainable model for even small-scale industries."
"With Excel applications, it is not able to handle a lot of pop ups. It should be able to do this automatically. We just change the format of the file from XLSX to XLS, but it should be able to handle this automatically. Instead, when something pops up, it gets stuck there. This type of thing are small, but still the process gets stuck. I would like to see better integration of applications to avoid these issues."
"The vendor can improve the solution by building up the BA path included in the UI Academy courses. There's too much focus on development, but not enough on BAs, scrum masters, and project managers alike."
"They still need some improvement in their new version of UiPath Studio, called StudioX, to improve design for Excel and email automation work."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing cost for Automation Anywhere is high."
"The control room access gives the ability to create different roles, which helps when purchasing additional licensing."
"Cost is the biggest area in need of improvement for Automation Anywhere. Annually it's $250,000. That's what deterred us right away."
"Our advice is that anybody interested in this product should negotiate product bundles in order to reduce the cost of installation and setup."
"Automation Anywhere's pricing is significantly higher than other RPA solutions."
"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."
"The cloud-based version comes at an increased cost, although our clients are happy with the new features and have not complained about the pricing."
"Talk to your manager and try to procure an automation license for training. This will allow you to train people, so you can move to automation."
"We have a yearly license."
"We are an enterprise. So, its price is bearable for us, but I am not sure about the small industry. It might be expensive for them."
"UiPath is perceived as more expensive, but it's pretty close when you break down the licensing model and look at how much competitors charge per connection. We've done the analysis."
"UiPath is not the cheapest solution, it's more or less the most expensive one, but we get what we pay for."
"It is the most user-friendly RPA platform, but it is also the most expensive RPA platform."
"Its price is fair. We have no problem. It is good."
"On a scale of one to ten, with ten being the most expensive, I would rate the price an eight out of ten."
"We just signed a very large perpetual agreement. So, we had 125 Studios and 1200 unattended licenses. We paid $3.7 million. Then, we paid maintenance costs for the next three years, which was 15 percent of that."
"Even though our clients may have an Automation Anywhere ecosystem, they choose UiPath due to budget and cost. Apart from cost, both platforms offer almost all the features."
