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.

Stable, easy to install, and cost effective, but it needs better integration and data management
It needs better integration with other tools like Jira. Better reporting and better data management are also needed. I believe the way they're structured is the flat file. So it'd be better if they actually used a database for the data storage, and a more robust portal. I would like more flexible reporting.

Implement service management changes while addressing UI improvements
Topdesk's user interface makes it easy to handle requests and escalate them to other groups or reassign them when working on a single ticket. Additionally, the service management tool in HR allows for a change in delivering services, replacing email communication with ticket raising. The knowledge library enables the local HR to store and share relevant information and frequently asked cases, enhancing collaboration. The ticket system also facilitates escalating cases to other involved departments. IT, HR, and some other teams primarily use this system.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In the past ten months, I have saved the work of two people and people are happy with the results."
"From a developer perspective, the user interface is user-friendly and easy to use."
"Automation Anywhere's error handling is its most valuable feature. It sends you an email when there's an error and helps you find the cause quickly. It walks you through exactly how you should handle it."
"Its user interface is very understandable. Even a non-technical person can understand it. Everything in the user interface is self-explanatory. It is quite good."
"One of the most valuable features is IQ Bot. If you compare Automation Anywhere with any of the other organizations, we may get same type of RPA solution, as there are multiple organizations. But, IQ Bot was one of the primary reasons to choose Automation Anywhere. Using IQ Bot, we can extract more data out from the documents that are unstructured. Therefore, we need to do two things at the same time: We need to extract the information from image-based documents We need to make sure that the efficiency and accuracy of the extraction is improving with each extraction."
"Automation Anywhere is fully configurable."
"Customers also are looking for the kinds of solutions that help enable their workforces to be more effective."
"We are saving almost four FTEs, and it is far better in terms of savings."
"The two most valuable features are the portal and reporting."
"Absolutely, we have seen a return on our investment."
"It is more flexible than our current solution."
"Technical support is great and we have not had any issues with them."
"When it comes to implementing new features, they listen to what their customers want via a suggestion forum that they have."
"It is an easy-to-use solution."
"This solution has provided me with a well-defined process and interaction, compared to my previous tool, GLPI."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ticketing feature."
"As we have moved to an off-premises deployment, we get regular updates."
"TOPdesk is overall very stable."
"Change management is the most critical feature."
 

Cons

"The license cost is high and needs improvement."
"In order to score nine or ten, they still need to provide more flexibility and integration with other tools and options."
"They should improve process discovery features."
"New versions keep coming up. The challenge for us is to have the downtime to do the migrations."
"We have had a lot of issues using Automation Anywhere and find ourselves stuck."
"I would like to see them expand the service catalog with RCA add-ons to the current RPA package."
"Attended automation sometimes might go into exceptions, thus we need to monitor it in-between, then check whether it is working properly. This way, we ensure the bot is working properly."
"Another feature that would be cool to see in Automation Anywhere is more use of artificial intelligence."
"It needs better integration with other tools like Jira."
"Yes. Major system issues and outages during our implementation."
"It's a very cost-effective solution, but it's not robust."
"Change management implementation, facility management, and making reservations on assets can be improved."
"All companies have processes that need to be adjusted. When you have a change, you need to name it, and many companies have a set of changes you can use. It would be helpful if there were more space in TOPdesk to name the change or use metadata to record the kinds of changes."
"The solution's change management could be better."
"This solution is modular so you only buy what you need, but I prefer what some companies are doing where they include everything in the package."
"In some fields, it's just not good enough."
"If I open a ticket on the infrastructure team, I can't move it to the financial team for them to manage the ticket."
"From a UI perspective, there is room for improvement. It sometimes takes many steps to do something simple, like creating or moving a knowledge item."
"One of the disadvantages of TOPdesk is the reporting tool. It is very poor and not in real-time. You do not always receive the correct information."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Considering the cost, it is a bit high, but worth the price because the output accuracy is high."
"If we talk about the automation RPA. it definitely has worked very well for us. I'm talking about giving good savings, about more than 180 FTE savings, after implementing more than 200 plus bots. It has worked well. As an organization, it has supported us very well, and also for our customers."
"We would like them to change the license model of charging per bot."
"It's cheaper than other similar solutions."
"Its cost is good."
"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."
"We have reduced our headcount, approximately 200 to 300 employees, by eliminating manual, repetitive work. It provides profit to the business."
"Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."
"The price is approximately $70 per agent, per month."
"TOPdesk's pricing is cheaper than Jira's."
"There are three fee options to choose from for a company and these options compared to market prices are very high. For example, if I use one of the first options for 10 assets, then it costs 20,000 Euros. If you went to competitors, then you pay less."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable and not expensive."
"The cost of the solution on a yearly basis is $20,000. Technical support is not extra. It's included in the yearly cost. Updates are also included. The solution is good at keeping its product up to date."
"The solution is inexpensive compared to competitors."
"Compared to other products in this segment, I think that they are priced well and not too expensive."
