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

"Automation Anywhere receives high marks for its ease of use."
"With its user-friendly user interface, our developers are able to quickly pick it up."
"We realized a return on investment with Automation Anywhere, especially during the COVID surge in volume within the payment process."
"It is easy to install and use."
"Having a cloud-based deployment provides more flexibility because we just need an internet connection for connecting the agent into the AA cloud."
"It saves us man-hours, headcount, and processing time, and we have automated the equivalent headcount of 500 FTEs since we started, with those people doing different types of work activities instead of being laid off."
"From an organizational perspective, it has improved how we work and determine, "Is there a better way to do things?" and, "How can we challenge the status quo?" This builds a continuous improvement mindset throughout our organization."
"Other products are more low-code, whereas Automation Anywhere is no-code making it easier to learn and user-friendly."
"The product's setup is straightforward."
"We find the OCR feature very valuable, due to the corrector recognition that it provides; this is very useful for document processing."
"The cost is the best thing about ElectroNeek."
"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."
"We have found that it brings more efficiency and effectiveness to routine tasks."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"I would advise others to go for it and just implement it; it is a really good solution."
"My favorite feature is that you can have unlimited bots without having to buy more licenses. That's a powerful option for scalability."
"It is a scalable solution."
"User-friendly, easy to understand and has many features including the ability to track."
"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."
"Pega is very mature. It's very old. They have grown with time, and they have learned. Other robotic process automation solutions are basically focused on only doing the automation, whereas Pega also gives you a workflow system so that you can create a workflow."
"It helped cut short the release cycle by almost 40% compared to the previous solution.​"
"The community support is awesome."
"With Pega Robotics, once we integrated it will work with any machines after deployment until there is a change."
"I am impressed with the tool's recording feature."
 

Cons

"We noticed slowness in a few of the commands like Object Cloning, Web Recorders, etc. on which Automation Anywhere can work to make it more robust. There are improvements required in the WLM solution provided by AA, which can make it a more robust queuing system and the system should retry by itself in case of failure due to system error."
"There have been problems with scalability. It comes down to how we handle the code."
"More interactions with PDFs would be great for Automation Anywhere."
"On the user side, we have seen issues with user training."
"Its pricing definitely needs to be more competitive. When licensing costs are high, we cannot use this tool for automation."
"I don't use the technical support a lot. It feels like a lot of time that they will ask us to check the user manual."
"I would like a couple more features where I can talk and the line comes up automatically."
"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."
"Its price could definitely be lower."
"It's not applicable to very large enterprises and for difficult work or more complex processes."
"The solution needs to improve its stability."
"I think that this solution could improve remote desktop interactions."
"The integrating capability of the product needs to be improved, to ensure that it works with all systems involved in a process."
"The pricing is an area with a shortcoming, and from an improvement perspective, it needs to be made cheaper."
"ElectroNeek comes with three activities and we cannot add activities like we can with uiPADs."
"The solution works well with Google Chrome, but not with Microsoft Edge, which is the browser we use for automation."
"Pega Robotic Process Automation can improve the OCR area. They don't have a powerful OCR engine to read documents or files like other tools."
"The new players such as UiPath and ABBYY are moving very quickly, but Pega is not. I'd definitely like to see Pega doing a few more interesting things on the AI or machine learning front so that we can use the platform for multiple things."
"The OCR capabilities of the solution could be improved."
"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."
"The interactions with some applications, like Windows and web applications, are a little slow; it will sometimes hang while interacting with third-party applications."
"You cannot use a two-dimensional array to read the data."
"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."
"I feel like it doesn't get updated frequently enough. There aren't a lot of new features or a clear roadmap for future improvements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere pricing and licensing are competitive compared to the other automation vendors."
"Despite being less expensive than UiPath, Automation Anywhere remains cost-prohibitive for many small and medium-sized businesses."
"The enterprise version is expensive for small businesses and individual users."
"We just did a round of price comparison on a global scale and found it's so hard to compare the license prices. But, Automation Anywhere, in general, is on the same price level as the other vendors, a bit lower in some cases."
"On a scale of one to ten with ten being the most expensive, I rate the price of Automation Anywhere an eight out of ten."
"If you look at the capital expenditure, Automation Anywhere is number two to UiPath. But if you take a long-term view, on a scalable model of a large number of bots coming out, it slowly goes on to become the costliest tool. There is something they can do about that. The capital expenditure goes out right at the point of buying the tool. For Automation Anywhere, I would need to spend $20,000. UiPath can give me something for $6,000, while Blue Prism will come in at $300,000."
"Our advice is that anybody interested in this product should negotiate product bundles in order to reduce the cost of installation and setup."
"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."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a seven."
"It's very affordable and the licensing is billed on a yearly basis."
"My company has made a payment towards the purchase of a license from ElectorNeek."
"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."
"I believe we had a Silver Membership or something similar annually."
"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."
"I would rate the product's pricing a nine out of ten."
"Pega is pretty costly."
"​I was not involved in licensing and pricing, but it is worth the cost​."
"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."
"Pega Robotic Process Automation is an expensive solution."
"The licensing cost is too high."
