Venkat Sivaprakash

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.

SDR and Workflow Automation Specialist at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

Organized real-time customer chats have improved support efficiency and response handling

One thing I found unique about Sendbird is how smooth the real-time chat feels. It does not feel delayed or clunky. Conversations flow naturally, as though you are talking to someone in real time. If I could improve one thing, I would add more built-in analytics around conversations, such as clearer insights on response times, common issues, and agent performance. That would make it much easier to optimize support without relying on external tools. One improvement I see for Sendbird would be more flexibility in customizing the chat interface, especially around how conversations are displayed for agents. Sometimes, when handling multiple chats, having better layout controls or quick filters would make it much easier to stay organized. I also would appreciate more built-in analytics inside the platform itself, such as clearer breakdowns of response times, chat resolution rates, and common customer issues. Right now, you often need external tools to get that level of insights. Overall, it works very well, but those improvements would make the day-to-day support work much smoother and much more efficient.

Senior IT Specialist at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees

A solution that streamlines ticket creation for the staff members of a business and enables efficient issue resolution by the IT team

SysAid is similar to Nintex AssureSign. Some of the back-end configurations of the solution are very difficult. So, we always need SysAid's help. Also, there are almost too many features that we are not taking advantage of in our company since we don't even know about them. A little bit of a streamlining or simplification of the main features would be a good improvement. I would like to see SysAid present its solution more easily. There is a lot in the solution, and it is more than what we need in our company.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"With Automation Anywhere, they receive their financial statements while still on the call."

"We have started to see the ROI, as activities in which resources in my team would have taken four to five hours are now done in 30 minutes."

"Automation is very important if you want to grow your business to the next level because of the transparency, speed, and scalability for any organization."

"By using this solution for RPA, we can automate a lot of business processes, which helps achieve less time to market."

"Automation Anywhere is a ten out of ten."

"The integration of Automation Anywhere into our clients' workflows, APIs, business applications, and documents was seamless, but it was a bit of a struggle until we realized that it has a built-in integration platform."

"The ability to find objects easily through the 'Capture' option saves your time most significantly."

"What I like about Automation Anywhere is the object cloning and the way you can move the mouse and either go to a particular point or go to an element. That's very easy and intuitive in Automation Anywhere... If I need to mimic a human behavior, I will use Automation Anywhere."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"Sendbird has positively impacted my organization because we do not have to build custom chatbots with code, and we could do no-code deployment, which is simply straightforward."

"Sendbird provides many features for real-time messaging, such as receipt ID and typing indicators."

"The Sendbird developer portal provides each step, including methods, making it easy to implement."

"Sendbird has positively impacted my organization by giving the users of my product a feeling of community that we wanted to give, which has really increased the app usage time."

"Sendbird is very flexible, and they have made great strides towards optimization."

"Features similar to WhatsApp, such as online and offline statuses, message reactions, and replies, add significant value."

"The most valuable feature for us, besides chat, was file transfer, as we used it for sending files and images in chats."

"The backend system was managed by Sendbird, eliminating the need for caching systems or local storage on user devices."

More Sendbird pros

"The simplicity of the solution is excellent."

"All our service management is integrated into one system. Our response time is much faster because we have a visual into what is going on."

"The solution can scale."

"SysAid is more user-friendly, and its configuration is easier than other tools."

"I would say the overall flexibility of the product is its most valuable feature."

"The solution provides us with multi-layered service management along with all our support pieces integrated in one system. Our entire system is run on SysAid, from Tier 1 to Tier 3. All the other IT department functionality is captured in SysAid, like development, warehousing, and application. So, it has vertical and horizontal coverage."

"It's really customizable. It's very user-friendly to change very quickly. We've developed lots of custom forms and things, without any need for thousands of accounting consultants which was one of our main aims of it."

"SysAid provides us with multilayered service management and all of our support pieces integrated into one system, making our service and support systems much more transparent for everyone in the business and helping us deal with resources more flexibly."

More SysAid pros

Cons

"In the debugging mode, it writes all the logs to text files, but it doesn't ever clean them up."

"We have trouble with large volumes of data in Excel and are not getting good results."

"Automation Anywhere should improve its OCR capabilities."

"I would like to see a comment feature that allows you to embed comments/notes into an action sidebar, without having to actually take up a line of code in order to write such a statement."

"The user interface should be enhanced to make things simpler for the user."

"Automation Anywhere is a technical application. It is not so easy for a regular user. It requires technical knowledge."

"Better use case management to prevent each development from scratch would be an improvement."

"MetaBot helps getting data from SAP, but we still have some cases where we cannot fetch data from SAP."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"To improve Sendbird, it could provide features such as those in WhatsApp, including allowing users to share their current location and live location, and enabling users to keep and share their current status with others."

"Their pricing is very high compared to competitors, which is a concern for us."

"If I could improve one thing, I would add more built-in analytics around conversations, such as clearer insights on response times, common issues, and agent performance."

"Sendbird can be improved by looking into the app ID and improvements on a daily basis."

"The documentation for integrating with the Flutter framework is lacking detailed information. Initially, I struggled to connect users and manage tokens for active and offline sessions, which caused frustration."

"Impersonating a user or using a template user to send messages for development purposes would be very useful."

"For Sendbird to be improved, I would say creating more multi-platform SDKs is essential."

"One area that could be improved is the handling and visibility of unread message counts."

More Sendbird cons

"The automation needs improvement. The workflow has some improvements to do. There's some stuff that they are working on like having cascaded fields. For example, we're categorizing tickets by location, by site and by building and then by data room within a data center. At the moment they're all separate fields."

"So far, we're very happy with the new integration. The only thing that I would like to see is for them to improve asset management so that it's more usable. We looked at it once and we didn't find it quite usable for us. That's why we didn't use it. We haven't looked into the new one yet but the asset management is something that can be improved even more and patch management is not as good as it could be."

"We would like them to approve the security functionalities, e.g., management security features."

"Currently, SysAid does not have a mobile application."

"One of the features that I'm hoping comes at some point is that currently you can only have one Knowledge Base instance within it."

"The solution needs to improve their mobile product."

"This means the facilities people can see every ticket that is in the support queue, which is not great."

"The administrative side of the user interface could be a little more user-friendly."

More SysAid cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The Community Edition is a good offering from the company."

"On a scale of one to ten with ten being the most expensive, I rate the price of Automation Anywhere an eight out of ten."

"I would rate the cost of Automation Anywhere as a six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."

"We only deal in annual licenses. There are no pay-as-you-go licenses."

"It's very good in terms of cost and pricing."

"We just did a round of price comparison on a global scale and found it's so hard to compare the license prices. But, Automation Anywhere, in general, is on the same price level as the other vendors, a bit lower in some cases."

"The pricing is reasonable and one can achieve ROI faster when compared to other tools."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"There is a starter plan for $399 per month, and a pro plan for $799 dollars."

"The pricing of SysAid is less than its competitors."

"Once you're interested, talk with SysAid. You can have them come in and look at your company and advise you on the best solution. They will tell you what comes with each separate package and also advise you what application to activate. If you want something that they don't have, they have a department that can design something based on your unique requests."

"Overall, the price is good. It's all about what you get for the base amount. From my perspective, you want to look at what you're getting out-of-the-box. SysAid does a good job of putting key stuff in the box for you."

"SysAid is a good solution, especially from a pricing perspective."

"Though I am not really sure about SysAid's prices, I know that it is competitive compared to some of the other products that our company looked at, like ConnectWise and ServiceNow."

"We saw our investment back at the end of year one."
