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.

Senior Rpa Consultant at a computer software company with 51-200 employees

Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions

I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

reviewer2728704

Corporate Development Specialist at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Offers a user-friendly interface but lacks enterprise-level features

EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is not difficult to deploy and the process was fine. Concerning deployment time, it usually takes one or two days. It totally depends upon the number of use cases and the processes where we are implementing. It might take weeks as well, depending upon the process in which we are implementing.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The recorders are highly beneficial when automating web scraping or web automation tasks."

"The most valuable feature of our solution is the cognitive computing because that is coming onto stream a lot faster than you would think. What used to be in the middle of, "Can this be done or not?", is becoming, "It can be done." We are getting some incredible straight through processing rates with AR around healthcare and financial services."

"It's very easy to use. It helps streamline manual processes."

"Overall, based on my experience with Automation Anywhere, I would rate it a nine out of ten."

"The best features of Automation Anywhere include the user interface, which is quite easy to use now compared to its previous versions that were more difficult, and all code is visible during coding, showing what is going ahead and what follows in the code, which is not available in other RPA tools such as UiPath, making it a standout feature."

"AA is a global market leader and the best RPA software to go with, in all aspects."

"The marketing automation software provides easy workflow creation and management."

"Automation Anywhere is very easy to use; it's a low-code platform that a person who doesn't have any technical knowledge can use."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The dashboards are quite good, especially on the latest versions."

"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."

"Automation Anywhere provides a very flexible UI."

"The most valuable feature is the interface, which helps to provide a good user experience."

"The solution is great to automate any repetitive tasks, which you might do on a daily basis."

"What I like most about BotFarm is that it's one of the leading RPA products in the market, and very few products focus on robotics today, so I like that BotFarm offers a lot in terms of what general customers expect it to do."

"The solution has very good processes. It's very easy to deploy and has good reviews on it. It offers good automation and the solution has very good developers working on it."

"The web interface that was introduced in the recent version helps because you are not dependent on any particular system."

More BotFarm pros

"The user interface is not complicated, even for new users. Two to three weeks is enough to get ahold of it."

"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is more affordable than UiPath."

"The feature I like the most is the ability to capture elements easily, especially when automating web-based applications. Additionally, I find the SAP connectors to be quite beneficial."

"Good email automation and XL automation."

"AssistEdge made it so that the reps didn't need to maneuver through 10 or 20 different systems. We tied all that together in the background, so the reps had a shared UI, and everything else happened in the background without their knowledge. When they were retrieving data, it was done in the background through automation and pulling up to that generic UI layer"

"The features of EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA that customers find most helpful include the easy understanding and good UI/UX."

"The tool follows a role-based working model to create things. It helps to track what others are doing with the system."

"There are some typical features I like such as email automation, XL automation, some AI/ML capabilities that are evolving, but are not quite mature yet, and I like the website automation."

Cons

"We had initial hiccups, like any new process. It took us six to eight months to sort the product out."

"Their bot runners could be made to handle multiple payloads at the same time because if I want to run multiple parallel operations, the number of bot runners that I have to buy just keeps increasing. It is adding to the cost. However, there is a possibility that we don't need that many bot runners, and we can run multiple operations in a bot runner. This would be a great addition to have."

"Over the time that I've worked with Automation Anywhere, I have experienced downtime, crashes, or performance issues."

"Currently, while working on the SAP part, I encounter some challenges, particularly not being able to extract the tree structure."

"Some of the biggest improvements they can make are with the interface. It can be improved in terms of usability or searching for something. For example, icons are hard to find. Typically, you jump into the search box, but being able to go in and find things quickly with the eye could be very valuable."

"When we try to process structured documents but with some little pen marks, improper partitions, or faded documents, IQ Bot fails to extract data properly out of them."

"The solution should include an analytics dashboard. As the space is maturing, many vendors sell functionalities as separate components so this is not unique to the solution."

"The analytical dashboard in the Control Room could use some improvement."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Sometimes I feel like it doesn't work properly and we are not able to provide the dexterity needed."

"The deployment could be simplified."

"An area for improvement in BotFarm is that the communication between the Control Room and the Bot Client Missions isn't utilized well. There's also the issue with PCI DSS compliance or certain regulations that require a set of configurations that are not fully supported by BotFarm. The product should be certified or designed according to the required regulations in the finance industry to make it better."

"An area for improvement in BotFarm is that the communication between the Control Room and the Bot Client Missions isn't utilized well."

"Overall the support and customer support areas need to be improved."

"The solution is a bit higher on the pricing side."

"The OCR command needs to improve. This feature is used to convert the extracted data from an image file. While converting this file I was facing a lot of issues with the data because it was getting lost and some of the data which was extracted was mismatched. The data loss was rated as a nine and the data accuracy was a massive decrease and was up to 80%."

"I would like to be able to access BotForm using a mobile app."

More BotFarm cons

"We provide them with consulting and strategy advisory services, but we have never recommended any organization to use EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA."

"In my opinion, areas for improvement in this solution lie in handling documentation, especially when dealing with data from various layouts or formats like scanned PDFs. Currently, new features are emerging in other tools, like generative AI, that could enhance these aspects."

"AssistEdge isn't a simple tool like Blue Prism or other RPA solutions with configurable items that you can drag and drop. This involved a lot of hard coding, which posed two challenges. One, we did not have that skillset, so we depended on Infosys. Two, it's a beast to go back and update or make changes when things are hard coded because you can't just move those configurable items back around."

"The solution could be improved if it provided integration with third party tools like Python, native integration, which is very important."

"There should be more activities like extraction for reading or converting PDFs. There are fewer activities compared to other tools. There are no custom activities."

"Lacks integration with third party tools."

"The tool's alternatives work on drag-and-drop functionality without creating custom code. We don't have an in-built queue system and use RabbitMQ for it. The solution also doesn't have a framework."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Whatever investment, licensing, and resource costs together are put in for development and delivery, we are still at an ROI of 250 percent."

"Automation Anywhere's price is considerably better than UiPath's."

"The pricing and licensing are definitely moderate to costly but easily recoverable by achieving ROI quickly."

"They sell it by license, but if they could charge by case or by interaction, that might be better. Right now, it's expensive when you want to scale or use them for simple processes."

"I feel the cost of licensing is very high for the A2019 version."

"They are already coming out with a community license, which is really good. That's something that I wish to have."

"I think it's $5,500 per license."

"The cost is affordable, which makes an easy barrier to entry for the RPA market."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"I am very happy with the pricing."

"We are on an annual license for the solution and is priced well."

"Its price is quite high as compared to other solutions, but it has a lot of features and good stability. They should reduce its price."

"Automation Anywhere is more reasonable than Blue Prism and UiPath in terms of cost."

"We pay approximately $15,000 USD per year."

"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."

"Pricing for this solution can be better."

"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
