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.

With an easy initial setup phase in place, the tool needs to provide functionalities like web scraping to users
It is a very scalable solution. In ElectroNeek, you can build your project in modular programming or with the use of sub-programs. You can have a lot of sub-programs that make up a whole project. If you don't wanna use the drag-and-drop activities, you can use JavaScript or Python instead. So it's very useful when you are working with things such as SPS. Actually, you can write scripts to support all the product functionalities with Python and manage the product's functions. You will find a company named Apollo Studios on the website of ElectroNeek. I think they are one of the best companies in South Africa that entered into a partnership with ElectroNeek.

Regional Director at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Has raised concerns due to outdated framework and high ownership costs
Pega Robotic Process Automation is a temporary solution to a bigger issue, and the cost of implementation especially with Pega really stops customers from proceeding. The total cost of ownership could be improved. From a technical perspective, the product performs adequately. The installation can be quite complex as it's not standalone, and customers need to get the whole Pega platform up and running. The total cost of ownership is not very attractive. RPA as a concept is outdated now, with agentic AI becoming more prominent. We don't see much interest from customers in going down the RPA route; Pega Robotic Process Automation is losing its prominence in the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a solution that I recommend."
"It is easy and simple to use with its drag and drop functionality."
"The majority of Indian companies are showing a lot of interest in recruiting students who are trained in this Automation Anywhere RPA tool."
"Automation Anywhere is a decent competitor and gives a better solution."
"The solution has helped us increase productivity."
"It's a great product, timely support, and guidance."
"When considering all the facts, this is one of the most user-friendly RPA tools that I have worked with."
"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."
"The product's setup is straightforward."
"The drag and drop feature, which is no code, is very useful for me because I am not a technical person. It is very user-friendly."
"The cost is the best thing about ElectroNeek."
"We find the OCR feature very valuable, due to the corrector recognition that it provides; this is very useful for document processing."
"The most valuable feature is the price."
"The solution is user-friendly with a really good UI and ID."
"My favorite feature is that you can have unlimited bots without having to buy more licenses. That's a powerful option for scalability."
"I would advise others to go for it and just implement it; it is a really good solution."
"The most valuable aspect for myself was access to the .net framework."
"The feature I like best in Pega Robotic Process Automation is that I'm able to add external DLL section codes. I can inject the JavaScript, and I can write VB.NET, C#.NET, and DLL codes, then inject those codes into the existing process. Mainly, from a development perspective, I like that feature a lot, so if anything is not supported by Pega Robotic Process Automation, then I can build that either in JavaScript or in .NET, then use those functions within the IP."
"Using the tool actually ends up teaching you about making workflows more efficient."
"The solution's automation handling capability has positively impacted the overall automation process in my experience."
"The data entry and the automation of data entry are the most valuable aspects of the product, as it was very smooth and very seamless to create automations with no scope for any errors, making it really error-free and very helpful for us."
"With Pega Robotics, once we integrated it will work with any machines after deployment until there is a change."
"The platform's most valuable feature is the ability to perform most tasks reliably. It efficiently integrates with other systems and automates various tasks."
"We have centralized the monitoring, and in Pega Robot Manager we currently have multiple dashboards where we can track, schedule, and handle everything, which has been a game changer in the last one-and-a-half years and has met what the business expected."
 

Cons

"The Automation Anywhere Control room component features can be improved, as of now it contains too many roles and rules which makes it confusing to use it."
"For future prospects, this tool should 80 percent deal with neural networks, deep learning, and artificial intelligence and that has to be integrated a lot. As these are future skills, these integrations will help us take the tool to take to the next level."
"Automation Anywhere is not very scalable because the update and upgrade process requires immense effort from the IT organization to do a tool check."
"I would wish for a greater focus on citizen development, which is a priority for our company."
"The AI centricity is a bit behind compared to the way we see Microsoft and AWS doing it. This is the feedback that I have also given to them. They need to expand themselves to provide more services than just RPA. Only RPA may not be enough for us, and it would not be our preferred choice for an automation tool."
"The biggest issue was that the new license required upgraded hardware infrastructure so we were getting all new tech stuff procured which meant that we were getting updated RAMs and things like that. Getting the licenses was easier but building the infrastructure which was required to support the new version was difficult."
"The Excel part needs improvement because we use it as a database. Right now, we are using UiPath for this feature, as that RPA tool allows us to sort, search, and filter in Excel databases."
"The product's technical support could use improvement."
"ElectroNeek comes with three activities and we cannot add activities like we can with uiPADs."
"The solution needs to improve its stability."
"When I wanted to use web scraping for tables in web applications, I found through online forums that such functionality or activity is currently not working as it shows."
"Its price could definitely be lower."
"The solution works well with Google Chrome, but not with Microsoft Edge, which is the browser we use for automation."
"The integrating capability of the product needs to be improved, to ensure that it works with all systems involved in a process."
"I think that this solution could improve remote desktop interactions."
"The pricing is an area with a shortcoming, and from an improvement perspective, it needs to be made cheaper."
"The OCR capabilities of the solution could be improved."
"Pega Robotic Process Automation is a temporary solution to a bigger issue, and the cost of implementation especially with Pega really stops customers from proceeding."
"Pega Robotic Process Automation using OpenSpan has a very low adoption because it does not provide the flexibility that UiPath or Automation Anywhere offers, which includes more benefits such as the bot manager."
"In this modern world, in this automation space, if Pega could provide more options that are user-friendly and provide a way to quickly develop an automation solution that is drag-and-drop with a minimal coding approach, then it would be great for automation."
"What I don't like that much in Pega Robotic Process Automation is its monitoring tool because that tool is tightly connected with the platform. If the Pega team can deploy the monitoring tool separately, so that it's a separate solution altogether, then that would be good because currently, if you have to use the monitoring tool, then that means you have to use the Pega Robotic Process Automation platform. The initial setup for Pega Robotic Process Automation also needs improvement because it is complex. The only additional feature I'd like to see in the solution is for the monitoring tool to be a stand-alone rather than being tightly coupled with the Pega platform. Looking at the current features of Pega Robotic Process Automation concerning application automation, it covers most of my needs currently."
"In Pega, the UI has to be improved because that is the most challenging area that most of our customers ask for because we have to depend on some other React JS or some other tool to bring that kind of UI experience. So, there is a lot of room for improvement in terms of UI and UX."
"The solution's configuration and settings could be more comprehensive."
"Pega has a no-code low-code environment. We do everything based on established rules. You kind-of have to learn how all their rules work and how it works for robotics before you can use the solution effectively."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"One of the things that will be good for the community will be to get the free version to download, which came out just a month ago called Community Edition. So, you can actually download it and try it for yourself."
"I feel the cost of licensing is very high for the A2019 version."
"Although the initial implementation cost of Automation Anywhere is relatively high compared to other options, its annual subscription cost is lower than UiPath's, which has the opposite pricing structure."
"We would like them to change the license model of charging per bot."
"I do not know the price, but I am told that it is cheaper than UiPath."
"We have reduced our headcount, approximately 200 to 300 employees, by eliminating manual, repetitive work. It provides profit to the business."
"Its usage is expensive for us because my user base is mostly in Manila and KL. The unit cost of labor is cheaper there than in the U.S. or Australia, which puts a bit more stress on how to get a positive ROI while continuing to use it."
"On average, a bot runner in Automation Anywhere can cost $5,000, while in Microsoft Power Automate, you can get most of the same functionality for $100."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a seven."
"Its price could definitely be lower. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost to the standard licensing fees."
"I give the price an eight out of ten."
"My company has made a payment towards the purchase of a license from ElectorNeek."
"It's very affordable and the licensing is billed on a yearly basis."
"I believe we had a Silver Membership or something similar annually."
"Pega Robotic Process Automation is an expensive solution."
"In terms of Pega Robotic Process Automation pricing, I would rate it a five out of five because the solution has a good price. Pricing is not very high, though I'm unsure of the exact cost, based on my experience, the price for Pega Robotic Process Automation is less than Blue Prism because I worked with a few clients that have both solutions and my clients prefer Pega Robotic Process Automation over Blue Prism particularly because of the licensing costs."
"I would rate the product's pricing a nine out of ten."
"Pega is as competitive as the basic players such as UiPath or Automation Anywhere. UiPath is the most expensive, but Pega is at par with Automation Anywhere."
"Pega is pretty costly."
"​I was not involved in licensing and pricing, but it is worth the cost​."
"The licensing cost is too high."
