Accommodates diverse use cases and effectively meets customer requirements
AI agents need further improvements. AI agent technology in agentic process automation is still evolving. We have only scratched the surface, and there are many potential use cases yet to be explored. As technology advances, I believe it will enable us to implement more comprehensive automation solutions. Document Automation has issues related to speed. When I compare Document Automation with IQ Bot, IQ Bot is faster than Document Automation. My understanding is that they are still evolving Document Automation, and this issue of slowness will be resolved in the upcoming .35 version, so we are good with that. They are working on signature identification and validations for handwritten documents. Currently, we are able to extract data out of scanned but digital images, but there is still scope for improvement for handwritten documents.
SA
An easy-to-use solution with great integration
It involves a lot of investment. The learning curve is not similar to other products, like K2. Regarding the user interface, I have to access workflows and define and manage the processes on the variant of a Windows application, which is not accessible if you don't have access from the client to install it on the workstation. And most of the solutions we're currently evaluating are web-based. Our customers and developers have complained that the UI is a little bit confusing. It has lots of elements. It's not user-intuitive compared to other products. Other than that, the licensing model is our main concern.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is very easy to use, very easy to learn. That is the main advantage of this tool. You don't need to have very specialized skills to learn it."
"Efficiency is something that has increased a lot. Productivity has increased a lot too."
"I recommend Automation Anywhere to other users because it minimizes repetitive human tasks, saves time, and helps reduce costs."
"UI and document automation are two features I like. Document automation is helpful because it simplifies extracting and putting data into different ERP systems. I have three or four use cases for document automation. I also like the recorder objects feature, which was called object learning in the previous version, and screen scraping."
"I have some metrics at the top of my head, but they're a little abstract. Accomplishing what we've done so far with the bots in production would take 40,000. It's not a direct correlation of full-time employees because that's all work that would not have gotten done because they don't have time for that kind of nitty-gritty work."
"The Visual Studio integration is smooth and user-friendly."
"Overall, based on my experience with Automation Anywhere, I would rate it a nine out of ten."
"Its ease of deployment is the most valuable feature. We have found with many customers that it's quite easy to deploy."
"It's very simple to use and the integration features between Java and other services within the workflow are very easy."
 

Cons

"I have not seen bots working efficiently in the area of reporting."
"The version that we are using has been difficult for us to code. As changes are very frequent, we have to make sure the code can be updated automatically so we don't have to make a change every time a user makes a change. Then, the user doesn't have to update us and we don't have to push a change to production. We have found a workaround with the help of the Automation Anywhere support people for this."
"The mobile application can be improved by adding more functions and capabilities abuse right now, only a few features are enabled for mobile users."
"The installation piece was sort of complicated because we are new to the business. We are new to installing Automation Anywhere services and the services that they are providing. So, we are sort of expected some kind of installation engineer to come onto our premises and provide the support, rather than remotely."
"Several competing products now offer superior functionality compared to Automation Anywhere's current capabilities."
"I would rate Automation Anywhere's support a four out of ten because the support is horrible for all customers."
"Our current version needs drag and drop, but that should be in the next release."
"MetaBot helps getting data from SAP, but we still have some cases where we cannot fetch data from SAP."
"Our customers and developers have complained that the UI is a little bit confusing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable and one can achieve ROI faster when compared to other tools."
"They're very flexible around pricing and licensing."
"The product starts at $10,000 and then it's up to you regarding how much you can consume."
"The product’s pricing is reasonable."
"We have saved time and money using this solution."
"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."
"Automation Anywhere might have a higher upfront cost than some competitors, but its extensive features and seamless integration with other tools can save organizations money in the long run."
"This solution costs approximately $3,500 USD per license."
"The price could definitely be lower."
