Nadeem K.

Rpa Developer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees

Automation has freed teams from repetitive finance and supply tasks and supports global operations

In the current organization, we had trouble initially because I think the documentation and support could be better than what it is now. This is one difference between Automation Anywhere and other RPA tools such as UiPath. In UiPath, if you have an issue, you go to the UiPath website and search for it, and you get lots of help materials. In Automation Anywhere, you do not get exactly what you are looking for. You get a very large number of results when you search for something, and from this large result set, you have to filter out what you need, or only partial information will be available. User handbooks are available for each product. In that regard, I would say Automation Anywhere is lagging compared to other RPA tools. It is difficult to get hold of their customer support team. I want to clarify that it is not a matter of us building logic on Automation Anywhere and it failing. When it is a product-related issue, they have to give us support because we only know how to develop within Automation Anywhere. We do not know how to fix Automation Anywhere itself. Whenever we have an issue, trying to get in touch with them always takes three to four business days.

Umair Akhlaque

Enterprise Solutions & Services Head at Duroob Technology

A fairly stable solution that’s highly mature, but has a poor user interface

The solution does not align as modern service solutions do. Seamless integration is no available among the processes. Their service management application needs a lot of work. It’s in a really bad state right now. They brought on a new interface that clumped all the processes and features of the solution into one. Still, it’s not really compatible with other solutions. Because of this, its rating has dropped in Gardner. The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements. The product needs to implement a cloud platform solution, which is lacking so far. Their workflow engine is still segregated. It’s not embedded. If you need to do some workflow approvals, you cannot do them directly on the service desk. You have to go into Outlook and do an approval or you have to go in through another screen to handle the approval because the workflow engine they have is a separate product.

AbhilashSherkane

Senior Practitioner at a outsourcing company with 1,001-5,000 employees

Comprehensive IT service processes have been supported but customization and support need improvement

All ITSM functionalities of SymphonyAI IT Service Management, including incident, problem, change, service request, and their out-of-the-box functionalities, are pretty good. SymphonyAI IT Service Management does not have too many integrations and does not have too many out-of-the-box integrations compared to other peers in the market. I think that is the only place where they lack. However, they did have a functionality where we could build our own integration, so we were using that. If they had any out-of-the-box capabilities for some of the common infrastructure tools, that would have been easier for us. The out-of-the-box functionalities were good, including AI. However, the moment we had to customize options, that becomes very difficult with SymphonyAI IT Service Management. As long as we were using out-of-the-box, it worked great.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My experience with the deployment of Automation Anywhere was good. I have no complaints there. It was very straightforward."

"I found the new feature of integrating Python and HTML the most valuable."

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

"The solution's primary benefit is improved efficiency. Automation Anywhere enabled us to enhance many processes that were previously done manually. It helps save time while improving compliance by keeping the data clean. We've also increased visibility for our end-users because we use the data from Automation Anywhere to build dashboards."

"It improves accuracy and reduces manpower. It is easy to learn."

"My clients have seen tremendous value when it comes to automating business processes, and the robust nature of the application allows them to scale their business processes pretty quickly."

"Automation Anywhere is a decent competitor and gives a better solution."

"You do not need to have IT skills. I come from a finance background, so I can attest to the fact that you do not need IT skills to use Automation Anywhere to leverage it on your teams."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"Improved the effectiveness of my Service Desk Team and improved the SLA timing."

"It’s provided self-service and automation, notifications, and reporting, and it’s good on a day-to-day and macro perspective."

"The solution is a highly mature product, and because of this, it can stand up to any other product on the market."

"It provides us with a very easy and flexible UI for CA Nimsoft Service Desk 7."

"Essential service management solution all in one, like 100- for service request, 200- for change request, 300- for incidents, 400- for problems."

"It's quite a complete entry into the SaaS ITSM market with a reasonable price point."

"The ability to add Additional Information Screens on the fly."

"This is the best product for Large Infrastructure companies/organizations to monitor their infrastructures/servers etc."

More Serviceaide ChangeGear pros

"All ITSM functionalities of SymphonyAI IT Service Management, including incident, problem, change, service request, and their out-of-the-box functionalities, are pretty good."

"The most valuable feature is remote access. People are working from home, and we can take remote access through it."

"The product has the best features for ITSM."

"It was easy to access and fast. Our experience using it solely as a ticketing tool. We used fetch reports from the tool, particularly with regard to SLA tracking for our partners."

"SummitAI IT Management Suite's chat box feature has reduced our service discount, and because it's intelligent, the responses that go out to the users have improved, and the resolutions are much faster."

"It is a good tool to use."

Cons

"Getting buy-in was a major challenge because of the various people not aware of the technologies moving and getting buy-in from top management is a challenge."

"Currently, Automation Anywhere's debugging functionality is minimal."

"I would like better support. The technical support is mediocre. The support is sometimes really good, and sometimes it is really bad."

"You could improve the tools for reading CSV/Excel, also providing wizards or detailed guides, otherwise, it is quite complex to use them, especially at the beginning."

"With the PDF command, you can only read structured data. If your data is in an unstructured format, there is no command for it in Automation Anywhere. Then, people need to use Python coding if their data is in unstructured format. Therefore, Automation Anywhere needs to improve in the PDF area."

"Integrations should be included with the analytics platforms and third-party SAP, enterprise-level applications, as well as if there are any built-in connectors where you can connect with the ERPs to automate the required teams."

"One aspect I don't appreciate about Automation Anywhere is the way variables are handled. Many things seem to become a string, which makes it hard to code and keep track of items when everything's a string."

"The capability of understanding and extracting documents is not very good."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Usability for IT analysts could be improved."

"The deployment was very difficult to handle. It's an unnecessarily difficult process that requires third-party assistance to do correctly."

"Actually this product and its limitations reduced the Service Desk effectiveness compared to the product we were using."

"It loses points because it’s not GUI enough, too code-y."

"I think they could update some of the interface. It doesn't look as pretty as some of the other ones."

"When tickets are closed occasionally, it is quite hard to reopen it, which will cause lost-tickets."

"Few probes need improvement in their function and the way they get deployed for monitoring."

"We have been seeing a little bit of latency here and there, but we haven't been able to identify it."

More Serviceaide ChangeGear cons

"I would like them to add software inventory in the next release. We don't have that right now."

"SummitAI IT Management Suite's project management and operational management features could be improved."

"There could be flexibility in terms of customization."

"Integration was a major limitation with SummitAI."

"Technical support takes too long for any issues to get resolved, and that created a lot of frustration."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have seen a return of investment because it takes less time to market in our current process. I would estimate a times savings between 20 to 30 percent."

"The product’s pricing is reasonable."

"It costs up to $1,200 per license."

"We are not receiving the right information about their features, e.g. Automation Anywhere University, or anything that they are selling. They need to improve their documentation."

"The pricing and licensing of Automation Anywhere plays an important rule in the Indian market because in the Indian market $10,000 USD is too much. Hence, the pricing tends to go down depending on the customer relationship with the partner: A starter pack is $10,000 and an enterprise pack is $100,000. If you go through an implementation partner, you can get good deals. They can save some money."

"The pricing for Automation Anywhere is reasonable."

"Because it reduced the time duration of our processes, our costs went down."

"The certifications are free of cost."
