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.

Gave a better output every time, reduced our touch time by 80%, and had a robust reporting mechanism to improve the process
We tested HyperScience on structured formats of the forms, and it worked really well. We tested it with semi-structured formats, and it worked well. We also tested creating a new form that does not have any format. HyperScience has less capability while working on unstructured forms. Unstructured forms are those where there is no standard structure and the information can be anywhere on the form. They need to develop this capability. Such a capability would make it a perfect system for processes like data entry, accounts tables, etc. Secondly, before putting the actual volume in the tool, I believe that we have to create a manual form every time. If the procedure of creating the forms can be shortened or automated, it would help. It would reduce the manual effort of creating a form every time you start working on it. There should be an automated form creation system that does not require any manual intervention. Whenever a new form comes, the system should be able to create a dummy form for that. That will help.

Valuable connectivity and coherent solutions simplify maintenance but require cost adjustments for industry-based needs
There are areas of improvement, especially in having industry-based solutions that we could easily tap on. It would help reduce the time spent on feeding information and creating outputs. More flexibility and specific models for specific purposes would be beneficial. Additionally, pricing is a concern as IQ Bot is considered costly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"With Automation Anywhere bots, we are able to cut down the manual efforts by 80% in generating Excel and Power BI reports, extracting and uploading files to various sites, and many other web-based administrative tasks."
"Within one minute we can view more than one thousand students and their results."
"The best feature is its ability to combine Automation Anywhere with AI to build intelligent bots."
"Automation Anywhere helped multiple clients to save a lot of data entry time and have automated almost every repetitive task, and AA Control Room helped to manage the operations of both attended and unattended automations and have helped a continuous run of the bots saving hundreds of thousands of dollars."
"We work in the business process outsourcing arena, it has improved our organization mainly around freeing up people to do other things and that can be quite large numbers, in the high tens, even hundreds of people that can be freed up to do other work."
"AA improves process consistency and reduces human error."
"No review content was provided."
"Some processes that have taken 24 hours for our guys to do, now take seven to eight hours for our bots."
"For our use case, it provided a complete workflow, reduced our existing touch time by 80%, and from the point of view of technology, it is one of the leading platforms right now in the OCR world."
"Having a tool like HyperScience which facilitates the process of converting digital copies of the scanned documents and provides us with the extracted data has helped us to facilitate further automation."
"It provides the best accuracy for handwritten forms, which is a struggle in the industry. You can take processes with a lot of manual work and streamline them through this tool."
"What I liked more about HyperScience was the quality of the OCR it is a lot better compared to Google."
"We have seen pretty good accuracy."
"If accuracy and customer satisfaction are your goals, then you should go for this solution."
"I like that compared to other tools, HyperScience works best with handwritten documents."
"Has algorithms that can detect a document template even if the image has a lot of distortions."
"It has a lot of great features."
"I like most of the algorithms that it has, such as classified algorithms. I also like the OCR engines that it provides. We get a lot of options to explore and deal with. IQ Bot has added a lot of value in terms of extracting the information. Some OCR engines have limitations in terms of extracting the information. They have recently added a new feature that allows us to add Python scripting. Earlier, we had to do the post-processing work in terms of formatting and updating the proper values, but now, we have the option to write a Python script, which is really helpful for us in terms of getting the output. We can manage everything using Python."
"Even if there are multiple types that are configurable and if the quality of the images is good, this is definitely much better than others."
"The extraction feature is the most valuable one of IQ Bot."
"Whenever we want to create something from the previous documents or images, the OCR feature enables us to do that job easily."
"Another valuable feature of IQ Bot is data extraction."
"The most valuable feature of IQ Bot is the Discovery Bots. They can detect and analyze for improvements."
"The way that the learning combines with the OCR is the solution's most valuable aspect."
 

Cons

"We have had some difficulty with ease of use. In addition, we have had some difficulties getting it to interact in predictable ways with our in-house software."
"Additional features should involve the Cognitive Section where we need more Advance solutions involving ML & AI."
"There have been many instances, particularly in my previous organization where we did a lot of development in Automation Anywhere, catering to clients like CPA firms in America, where we raised tickets for solutions but did not always find a satisfactory resolution, despite connecting over a call."
"Unwanted windows are popping up. We have to train a bot to recognize the window if it comes up, know what it is, and click it. If it is interrupting our bot, I just want to avoid that window, because I am getting failed logs."
"They can further improve the AI. It is already at a certain level, but it can be improved."
"We've had a lot of issues with the installation and performance on a variety of computers, onshore and offshore. Our network bounds multiple domains, and we've had issues there, as well. So, we are looking forward to the web-based development versions."
"What I am suggesting, when using A2019, if there are any additional features to exclude those antivirus scans until after my task is completed, then the antivirus can start scheduling. Then, I can easily tell the client that the priority are running and the Automation Anywhere scans can wait until after the release."
"Applications like Microsoft Power Automate do have zero-code systems. I've not done much research on Automtin Anywhere in comparison. However, if Automation Anywhere could also have something of that sort, that would be a game changer."
"HyperScience has less capability while working on unstructured forms. Unstructured forms are those where there is no standard structure and the information can be anywhere on the form. They need to develop this capability."
"The solution lacks support for a greater range of languages."
"The product's usability could be better."
"One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle."
"The product's usability could be better. The first pain point is that we're getting the output in a different format, and we were expecting a different timetable. The second point is that if you want better results, HyperScience says you have to configure a minimal PDF or a maximum of 400 PDFs. If you want results with 400 PDFs for what's written by these doctors, then you also configure the maximum of 400 templates for that. So, it's essentially a lack of support from HyperScience. In the next release, it would be better if failure scenarios were reduced. It would also help if they offered different formats, inputs or injections, and added different scenarios."
"HyperScience is a stable solution, but there are some improvements needed in terms of the language support and support of dictionaries."
"Extracting tables from certain documents could be improved."
"The solution is expensive."
"The first place it could be improved is its price - it is too high. I'm having a lot of difficulty moving it to the customers."
"Pricing for IQ Bot isn't good because if you're paying a lot and you're still getting some problems from it, then you can't give it a good rating."
"It was challenging to have to do the pre-processing and tax inputting on our own."
"I think Automation Anywhere has a partnership with Google. I hope they integrate Google's OCR engine in some way with IQ Bot because the OCR engine that Google produces provides an in-built accuracy of close to 99%. That is the integration we are looking for, but we need to pay for IQ Bot. If they can integrate both and come up with better pricing, then it will be a huge boost because, in that case, the quality of an image or PDF quality is taken completely out of difficulty as Google tends to extract the data. That is something I am looking for if this happens."
"It would be helpful if the IQ Bot OCR could be integrated with third-party solutions like FlexiCapture."
"The success rate must be improved."
"This solution could be improved by making it possible to add handwriting and signatures."
"If you train with less amount of data, your accuracy goes down, and the confidence score goes down."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Approximately, for a developer, it is around $750 for a license a year. For Bot Runners, it is about $550."
"The pricing for Automation Anywhere is reasonable."
"The solution's pricing is pretty decent."
"Talk to your manager and try to procure an automation license for training. This will allow you to train people, so you can move to automation."
"It is reasonable and affordable. If you consider the tasks that we can get done using this, the pricing is reasonable and affordable."
"The cost of this solution is a little bit high, but it is worth the price."
"Its cost is good."
"Subscription for Automation Anywhere (AA) is paid yearly."
"I don't have any idea about the licensing costs, but I know that there was a per-page charge. They had different models of pricing. One of them was based on the minimum number of pages, and we had a fixed price. So, the price model depends on the volume that is coming through HyperScience."
"I think HyperScience is cheaper when compared to other tools. They also have a lifetime licensing option."
"The product’s price is always in the higher range."
"IQ Bot's pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions but should be decreased further."
"There are others like Automation Anywhere offering similar kinds of bots for less. Most of the platforms are the same, and most of the features are the same, but not the licensing cost."
"The licensing is under usage per page, and I wouldn't recommend it."
"The product cost is relatively high compared to other tools in the market."
"I feel that the price of IQ Bot could be lower."
"IQ Bot is expensive compared to other solutions."
"The price could be lower."
