Management Consultant at Accenture

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.

Satender Sajwan

Operations Manager at Genpact

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.

Cloud platform orchestrates business processes with AI capabilities

I find the capabilities that a normal orchestrator should have to be valuable in WorkFusion. The WorkFusion 10 cloud-based platform is different from the earlier on-prem version, WorkFusion 9. The platform now includes auto machine learning and AI capabilities. We haven't used these extensively, but they are a nice feature they are working on. The platform remains stable with well-designed processes, despite being a complex and technical tool.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"A user can easily adopt this technology and utilize it, when compared to the other available resources in the market."

"Features such as MetaBot and IQ Bot are very advanced and capable as compared to reading PDFs using OCR."

"It is very easy to use and learn compared to a programming language, where you have to have a background in coding. Anyone can learn it. Learning the software is easy."

"The features that help us satisfy the needs of the customer to overcome mundane activities using task bots and meta bots are the most valuable along with the rich controls in the control room. The developer team is able to capture all the necessary steps without much hassle with the visual designer and the ability to test each step of automation has helped in delivering error-free automation to our customer."

"One of the most valuable features is object cloning, the ability to get into websites and do things faster."

"The advantage of Automation Anywhere is that you don't necessarily have to come from a programming background."

"We've noticed time savings of up to 40 minutes, based on wait time and verification delays."

"We have leveraged automation to increase economies of scale and value-added work while reducing operating costs."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"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."

"If accuracy and customer satisfaction are your goals, then you should go for this solution."

"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."

"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."

"Has algorithms that can detect a document template even if the image has a lot of distortions."

"I like that compared to other tools, HyperScience works best with handwritten documents."

"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."

More HyperScience pros

"It's a pretty robust product."

"The cognitive features of this solution are good."

"If you compare it to its competitors in the market, it is more Java-native."

"This solution has great document recognition capabilities."

"It really does help by either freeing up people's time to focus on more value-added tasks or reducing headcount. We generally have other things that we can get people to do, helping make the employees' work more meaningful since they are not having to do the mundane stuff."

"The dashboard is the solution's most valuable feature; when clients want to look at the data it's very easy for them to do so, and the dashboard for the IT manager is very useful if there are issues and to create and follow processes."

"The automations that we built are massively important to us."

"Before WorkFusion, my processes were all manual, and now the Workfusion model reduces the amount of time my analysts have to spend reviewing client profiles against client documentation, brings greater efficiency and reduced costs, should reduce our processing time by about 25 percent, and improves our accuracy and compliance by reducing human error and the need for further QC."

More WorkFusion pros

Cons

"Their support also needs improvement."

"Automation Anywhere is unable to connect to the database directly. What we are doing now is directly writing the PL/SQL scripts and trying to push the data from the database into Automation Anywhere. This feature is available in UiPath, but not in Automation Anywhere."

"My experience with the pricing, setup cost, and licensing is mixed. It is somewhere in between, not the most cost-efficient but also not the highest cost, so it can be better."

"New versions keep coming up. The challenge for us is to have the downtime to do the migrations. This could be improved upon. We would like fewer version changes and upgrades happening to the application. While the downtime is not that much, depending on the business processes, there are times few critical processes are running on a daily or hourly basis. We would expect the downtime to be even less for them."

"The key area where improvement can happen is understanding the different perspectives and different industries that they're serving in terms of industry-wise use cases."

"There are occasional bugs in the system but technical support is quick to address them and deliver solutions, patches, and upgrades."

"If you were to come to me and ask for an OCR to be done, I could only guarantee you about eighty percent accuracy."

"The Control room audit logs should be moved to an archive for those that are more than six months old."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle."

"Extracting tables from certain documents could be improved."

"They could work on the price and make it a bit more reasonable."

"The product's usability could be better."

"HyperScience is a stable solution, but there are some improvements needed in terms of the language support and support of dictionaries."

"The solution lacks support for a greater range of languages."

"No solution is perfect and there are several different scenarios that could be improved in HyperScience. One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle. There is some issue with supporting the extraction from multiple tables involved on the same form. If this could improve, it would be a big benefit."

"The solution is expensive."

More HyperScience cons

"The user experience could be better both from an RPA perspective and from a business perspective."

"I would also like for it to be NLP-based."

"This is an expensive solution. They have a very expensive license compared to any other automation tool."

"The express version does not do API calls and the Enterprise version does not do codeless coding."

"We have executed our robots thousands of times in our enterprise environment. However, in an enterprise environment, WorkFusion has performance problems. It is slow in production."

"A better graphical user interface that allows business users to perform automation would make this solution number one in the market."

"The problem with the solution is that it is agnostic, so it's not made for banks. Sometimes we are challenged because of this. We have to make everything from scratch to make it work for our clients."

"The product needs to be "simple and easy" to use."

More WorkFusion cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing for Automation Anywhere (AA) is paid on a yearly basis. Out of all the RPA tools, it has the most value for money, e.g. what you pay is what you get."

"Its price is competitive with all other products in the market."

"The pricing of AA is similar to UiPath."

"There are a lot of savings in terms of effort and time as well as costs. Automation Anywhere automates a lot of processes. It allows an organization to save the efforts of a lot people. It saves a lot of time because people can't work a whole day (24/7), but Automation Anywhere bots can."

"Cost is the biggest area in need of improvement for Automation Anywhere. Annually it's $250,000. That's what deterred us right away."

"I've seen the price vary by whether the client is going to scale and adopt a tool."

"The initial setup and licensing fees are high, and although it saves costs in the long run, reaching the break-even point can take at least six months."

"It's justified because we have saved quite a bit of money at the company and many manual hours. Overall, it justifies the cost."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"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."

"My client is using RPA Express, which is available for them to use free of charge."

"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."

"Find it online."

"In addition to the licensing fee, there is also an implementation cost for each use case and technical support costs."

"The overall cost could come down a bit in terms of maintaining the servers. Because it can handle complicated things in big use cases, the infrastructure is also correspondingly big. It would be nice to bring that cost down."

"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."

"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."

"We have a good deal from WorkFusion. We have an unlimited global licensing deal with WorkFusion. For us, it is a no-worry solution. We can go ahead and use it as much as possible anywhere we need it. If WorkFusion has a different kind of a deal for licensing with others, then their business decisions need to be evaluated based on that."
