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.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Based on my experience, I have found Automation Anywhere to be more stable and accessible."
"It is easy to automate SAP by using Cloning and Metabot."
"All customers were happy after automating using AA because of the better accuracy, it's easy to develop and manage, and it's easy to manage the orchestrator."
"An easy to deploy and learn automation tool that can save resources, effort and money."
"A valuable feature of Automation Anywhere for my needs is IQ Bot because it covers most of the semi-structured and structure data. That's where we are struggling a lot. So, IQ Bot is a very good solution to know and bring onboard for the automation of unstructured and semi-structured data."
"Automation Anywhere has helped me save both time and costs, with savings of approximately eight million in the last two to three years, and in terms of percentage, I saved around thirty to forty percent of time compared to before using Automation Anywhere."
"Our ROI has ranged from thousands to hundreds of thousands, depending on the type of process being automated."
"In our efforts to efficiently manage the master data at our factories, the biggest benefit is the fact that we have been able to rein in what was an increasing number of engineers who were needed, on the order of some 100 people, so that’s a major result."
"Overall, Sendbird is a solid choice if you are looking for a reliable, scalable chat solution without the overhead of building and maintaining your own messaging infrastructure."
"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."
"The backend system was managed by Sendbird, eliminating the need for caching systems or local storage on user devices."
"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."
"There are many useful features with Sendbird."
"Sendbird provides many features for real-time messaging, such as receipt ID and typing indicators."
"Sendbird is really valuable because I was able to create a chat from scratch in two to three days and a custom chat in a week by implementing things from scratch."
"Customer service has been one of the best for any software provider we have seen; any issue we had was solved quickly."
"Vision Helpdesk has a very small price but has many functions, and compared with others their price is 3-5x lower for similar functionality."
"If you are looking for an affordable solution for your business but want all the features of something you would expect to pay highly for, choose Vision Helpdesk! Trust me - you won't look back!"
 

Cons

"They have a ridiculously expensive bot licensing structure, especially for the Asian region."
"The solution could improve the integration with some web applications. It was difficult to manage them."
"We'd like to see more AI features."
"The UI can be improved a little bit to make it easier for beginners to understand."
"I would like to see them continue building out documentation with more video-aides."
"One of the main concerns with Automation Anywhere is the lack of a robust feature for capturing and managing information from the user interface, something competitors like Blue Prism already offer."
"As a business user, I would like to have a feature wherein the bot is run on demand, whenever an email with a specific keyword or whenever a specific pers sends an email to the bot's email address."
"It should be easier to use."
"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."
"Impersonating a user or using a template user to send messages for development purposes would be very useful."
"Their pricing is very high compared to competitors, which is a concern for us."
"Sendbird can be improved by looking into the app ID and improvements on a daily basis."
"I thought that there should be the audio and the video call functionality as well."
"At times, there are unexpected behaviors where the documentation suggests something different from how the SDK actually behaves, requiring us to create workarounds."
"Their teams could be better in sync, as I had a very bad bug wherein all three SDKs had a problematic initialization order that required a bug fix version to be released after 17 email exchanges to finally get them to agree that the fault was on their side, which was pretty painful."
"Their live-chat support needs work."
"I think I'd like to see a more user-friendly interface in the user-ticket view."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While calculating the setup cost you should account for the server, virtual machines, product licenses, maintenance costs, and running costs."
"We have a three-year contract with Automation Anywhere."
"It is reasonable, but it can always be a little bit cheaper."
"As our team size increases, we may get some more licenses for the tool."
"I don't know exactly what the pricing schemes are for the product as this type of negotiation is not my responsibility, but I think the basic pricing comes to $15,000."
"They recently launched a Community Edition, which is okay, but they should have done this a long time ago."
"In terms of pricing, it's not at all cheap, and that's a concern. The licensing cost is very high. While I don't know the exact prices of other tools, Microsoft offers the lowest pricing for its RPA platform compared to UiPath and Automation Anywhere."
"They're very flexible around pricing and licensing."
"There is a starter plan for $399 per month, and a pro plan for $799 dollars."
