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.

Frees up employee time but can't run when computer system is locked
Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks. It would be better if, when we have scheduled a scenario, it would log into the system automatically.

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

"Automation Anywhere is a decent competitor and gives a better solution."
"In human resources, we created several core SAP systems so that the basic users in human resources can reduce redundancies by 10 times with very little cost."
"The ease of use is the most valuable feature. It's very easy to use, so to get started, you don't really need hardcore development skills."
"It is easy to use for non-technical people, with a simple drag-and-drop interface, so they don't need to be technically savvy to automate their processes."
"The most valuable feature of Automation Anywhere is the automation that frees up time for our employees to engage with customers."
"Automation Anywhere's most valuable feature is its seamless integration into procurement software, allowing for the automation of purchase orders, billing, employee travel details, and other tasks."
"Automation Co-Pilot helped increase productivity."
"Because it reduced the time duration of our processes, our costs went down."
"The tool's most valuable feature is data import. The OCR feature helps to recognize the data. It can recognize screen and document numbers well."
"NTT-AT WinActor has allowed our employees to focus on other things rather than the repetitive tasks that can now be given to the robot."
"This software is very smart - it can decide from a picture if we like that condition, and then the robot will do that action."
"The robots have helped increase the rate of efficiency by 75% to 80% from a customer perspective and 30% from an order entry perspective."
"The Control Tower enables us to create and use workflows. It helps us run processes. There are a lot of small features, but the Control Tower is a very good feature, wherein we can create bots and schedule them as well as create different instances of them to run in different regions."
"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."
"Overall, I would recommend this solution to other users."
"The platform remains stable with well-designed processes, despite being a complex and technical tool."
"The automation process is the most valuable feature."
"Their robots have increased the rate of efficiency by two to five times in our organization. There is still a human element to code out the package running the robots. You can't just click something and have it run. However, once that has been done, you can parallelize it 10 or 100 times in a fairly straightforward manner."
"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."
 

Cons

"Automation Anywhere (AA) has a lot of stability issues. It needs a lot of maintenance."
"The scheduling is a little difficult at times."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved as there are issues with the recorder, which needs enhancement to extract more fields in the property set to increase reliability across various web application platforms, such as those built on React, React Azure, and React Angular."
"However, there is a problem that arises with accuracy in the newer version."
"Automation Anywhere has some limitation with its integrations."
"Cost is the biggest area in need of improvement for Automation Anywhere. Annually it's $250,000."
"I never use Automation Anywhere in the attended space because they are bad at that, at least compared to other players like us or UiPath."
"I would like to be able to look at the steps that are completed as a process is running."
"Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks."
"The OCR has issues recognizing handwritten data."
"WorkFusion comes packed with certain libraries and .jars. At times, you understand that you're using a system in which a library or .jar is outdated and you need to upgrade it... They need to better manage quickly making changes in WorkFusion to accommodate a situation where other technologies are not supporting the platform."
"However, we've had use cases where we decided not to employ WorkFusion because it lacked capabilities that were important for the business processes in our company."
"A better graphical user interface that allows business users to perform automation would make this solution number one in the market."
"The most common issue we have is with the OCR, but that also depends on the quality of the documents your scanning. Still, I would say the OCR is comparable to other solutions. I wouldn't say it's better or worse than other OCR engines."
"I would also like for it to be NLP-based."
"We are having some database issues, but we are addressing them."
"It is difficult for non-technical users to use WorkFusion. If we really want to build automation, we definitely need Java developers. Their RPA is not for non-technical people. If I look at competing products, like Automation Anywhere, UiPath, Blue Prism, or even Power Automate, a non-technical person can build basic automations and deploy them. Since non-technical people can easily build basic automations, they can be deployed in no time. With WorkFusion, there isn't a similar feature that works well. One needs to write code from scratch to build automation. That is definitely a deterrent if we really want to do quick, dirty automation. I would not rate WorkFusion very high on their no-code, low-code paradigm. In this area, I would definitely expect them to improve."
"So far, we have developed only one automation using machine learning. The results were less than optimal. Part of this could be because of the use case that was selected. Overall, our experience was suboptimal. WorkFusion was an outstanding partner in terms of providing their experts for free to help us on that particular use case, but we still have a lot of things to figure out in terms of how to use its machine learning capability."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our costs are approximately between $5,000 to $10,000 per license."
"It is not cheap, but we are able to get an ROI."
"I have heard that Automation Anywhere is expensive."
"If I compare it with Blue Prism, Automation Anywhere is cheaper. Blue Prism is very costly. Automation Anywhere's pricing follows the market, not less and not more."
"Price is where I'm least satisfied. Other vendors are more willing to offer discounts."
"Automation Anywhere falls within a mid-range price point when compared to other RPA tools on the market."
"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."
"We have purchased licenses, but are trying to obtain more bot programmer licenses."
"We pay yearly for the agent who runs the processes, plus an additional fee for maintenance costs."
"In addition to the licensing fee, there is also an implementation cost for each use case and technical support costs."
"One upgrade took a year to do, from the first server being built to the last bot being migrated. This was because we had to migrate all our existing bots. This is the same process and time frame that we are expecting towards the upcoming upgrade. I will end up spending half a million dollars to do an upgrade."
"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."
"As a first-time customer who wants to engage with WorkFusion, not working for my company, then I would want to do a PoC. The cost is prohibitive because they will ask me to get infrastructure with six or seven servers. Then, you must buy a WorkFusion license to do a PoC, which is expensive. I would then have to set up a team to build the PoC and see the benefits. That is very prohibitive."
"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."
"The solution was not the cheapest, but it was also not the most expensive. Workfusion was very open to negotiating pricing and to working within the objectives of our firm."
"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."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
