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.

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

"The object cloning is its most valuable feature."
"My clients have seen ROI, as what would take them two to three days in work is now taking them two to three hours."
"Automation Anywhere's document automation, powered by IQ Bots and now enhanced with AI, stands out as a particularly valuable feature."
"I really like Screen Recording because it is used to record a task or a series of actions."
"By providing the companies with such a useful and productive tool, they save a lot of time and money on tasks that can be performed by small bots."
"The ability to automate low decision, highly repetitive tasks and clear large backlogs of tasks that we could not do with our human staff."
"There are more valuable features with the updated solution; now they have both the list view and the flow view, they have increased some features in terms of data types, they now have good usage of the data table and have added variable types, and it's convenient."
"The best features in Automation Anywhere that I really appreciate are found in the basic module for pure RPA, such as the recorder function, which helps in making automation even easier; no coding is required, you are just doing things, and the recorder records your movements and actions, creating the code out of that."
"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."
"It is a good tool to use."
"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."
"Vision Helpdesk has a very small price but has many functions, and compared with others their price is 3-5x lower for similar functionality."
"Customer service has been one of the best for any software provider we have seen; any issue we had was solved quickly."
"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

"Automation Anywhere can be improved with respect to the user-friendliness of the interface because most of the competitors are now using a flowchart-like structure, thus making it easy for anyone to learn and study it."
"We are still hoping to see improvements in its ability to have the client answer automatically and reconnect when Windows updates are applied."
"There could be improvement in the reporting and insights into the ROI. The ROI tool that shows the performance and the return on investment is not very accurate."
"Automation Anywhere has to be integrated with machine learning and AI systems to read images and videos, then put the information into another format."
"I would like to see improvement in its scalability."
"I never use Automation Anywhere in the attended space because they are bad at that, at least compared to other players like us or UiPath."
"Automation Anywhere could improve by incorporating better integration with DevOps."
"The EXE license is such that I can create executable files from the developer machine and deploy it; however, the file that you created can only be deployed to one system, so if you wanted to deploy this test file to, say, 10 test systems you would need 10 licenses."
"Technical support takes too long for any issues to get resolved, and that created a lot of frustration."
"Integration was a major limitation with SummitAI."
"There could be flexibility in terms of customization."
"SummitAI IT Management Suite's project management and operational management features could be improved."
"I would like them to add software inventory in the next release. We don't have that right now."
"I think I'd like to see a more user-friendly interface in the user-ticket view."
"Their live-chat support needs work."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is subscription-based. They have different schemes. The price depends on how you negotiate with the local partner or local representative in your country."
"It's very good in terms of cost and pricing."
"We purchase on a bot basis. Our costs are approximately $5,000."
"Our costs are approximately between $5,000 to $10,000 per license."
"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."
"Licensing costs range from $50,000 to $200,000."
"Licensing for Automation Anywhere (AA) is paid on a yearly basis. Out of all the RPA tools, it has the most value for money, e.g. what you pay is what you get."
"Our advice is that anybody interested in this product should negotiate product bundles in order to reduce the cost of installation and setup."
"SummitAI IT Management Suite's pricing is a bit expensive."
"The product's cost is average."
"We have a regular license."
