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.

Have faced limitations due to integration complexity but have processed documents efficiently and reduced manual effort
Bedrock is basically a framework that can manage multiple large language models. Another useful tool is Amazon Textract which extracts text from documents. It helps with compliance because Amazon Textract itself doesn't store anything. When hundreds of documents are uploaded in an S3 bucket, the S3 bucket will store the documents, but Amazon Textract itself doesn't store anything. It pulls the contents of the documents and then passes them on to the next system, making it compliant. It helps in a great way by reducing the load on LLM and reducing the cost.

Robust document capture boosts efficiency and integration options
The best features include multiple channel capabilities such as fax, different file transfers, and paper scans. It can be integrated with multiple channels and can capture images, even from mobile devices integrating into OpenText Capture. Currently, it has introduced AI for data extraction and document processing. OpenText Capture's impact on automating document-intensive tasks such as accounts payables or loan processing is significant. It has the capability to capture table structures or multiple line items from images, including line items and final amounts for invoice processing. The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data. This product can be integrated into any point-of-sale system, Salesforce, SAP, or other environments, reducing manual data entry and related tasks. This feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption. The automation reduces human effort that would otherwise be required for classification and extraction tasks.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The turnaround time of building bots is quick. We are deploying around four bots per month. The turnaround time to get a design, build, and deploy is very fast. This is very good for us. It has helped us out when scaling up in a better manner."
"My experience with the deployment has been very good."
"AA has indirectly helped in re-engineering processes, which has made them more robust and efficient, and this has helped the business immensely."
"The ability to create automation itself is a benefit that reduces human error and enhances efficiency. Technical support is unsurpassed."
"It reduced cost and effort significantly; yearly, our organization saved $14,000, the company started to save more, and increased efficiency in the field of automation then started to pioneer."
"We are using it to backfill a lot of our resources who are retiring, so we are hiring less people as we go."
"Automation Anywhere has a Bot Store. E.g., you can download the bot from the Bot Store and utilize it's data extraction capabilities. You can extract unstructured data through IQ Bot. Getting unstructured data is not difficult. I once obtained an 84 page PDF file using an IQ Bot. This was just the trial version, and it was really good. I was able to get all the circuit IDs and properties that wanted in a simple CSV format. I had not seen anything like this before. When compared to other platforms, such as UiPath, they don't have these capabilities right now. They have activities like PDF extraction, but that's not good enough."
"In terms of development for our developers, it is very easy and quick to learn because Automation Anywhere has provided an online academy where developers can easily learn the features. It is very easy. If someone does not have a coding background, they can also learn from it very easily because it is just drag and drop and very interactive."
"Amazon Textract was easy to use."
"With the help of Amazon Textract, we are reducing labor and manpower because with just one API call, we can get all the extracted information with its coordinates."
"Amazon Textract is superior because it has features that allow you to use analytics or intelligent automation with the OCR; it will automatically identify key and value pairs, so you can use the data easily."
"The support is actually very good; I've worked with Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, but compared to the others, AWS support is excellent."
"In a project, I integrated Amazon Textract with Bedrock and passed the extracted document text to the LLM using Bedrock."
"We use it to capture documents coming through our product and mobile channels and make them available for our business to access and email. We use it to automate the email workflow in our applications, pull the documents, and email them to the users."
"The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data, and this feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption."
"Being able to have accurate extraction is most valuable. It has machine learning and other tools to make the extraction more accurate."
"OpenText Intelligent Capture is pretty good."
"It is a mature product and a leader in the industry."
"It allows you to image capture, scan documents and use machine learning to automatically index and tie them."
"The automated version of the vendor invoice management is great, and it is helpful because it has reduced the human interaction in invoice processing."
"The enterprise and capturing feature of OpenText is its valuable feature. As we have integrated CRM with OpenText."
 

Cons

"The version that I used (10.3) was not that stable. It easily crashed in-between processes."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved with respect to the user-friendliness of the interface because most of the competitors are now using a flowchart-like structure, thus making it easy for anyone to learn and study it."
"I have found that Automation Anywhere is prone to bugs in handling Excel. It breaks and gives vague error messages. I have had a lot of experience with that and learned that it is better to write a Python script instead of using Automation Anywhere's package when dealing with Excel because it is buggy and tends to break, unfortunately."
"Enhancing the support tiers might be beneficial, and pricing has been a primary challenge, with a need for cheaper options and more tiered support."
"Some of the things I have not appreciated about Automation Anywhere is that when I was setting it up at the beginning, it was a bit complex and it required some technical knowledge for me to set it up; however, there was documentation about its use that helped me in setting it up, but mostly the setup is a bit complex."
"These guys need to build a good team."
"There are some business areas for which this tool is not capable of doing, such as in the areas of graphically-based input."
"A2019 should have more improvement for developers, as it was in v11.x."
"Some easy integration with other systems could be improved."
"They should provide an offline solution because in many areas in India and outside, there are clients facing Internet issues."
"The product has not given correct results for me. It was not accurate, especially with handwritten items and documents with pencil marks, which Amazon Textract failed to identify correctly."
"Sometimes the tabular data does not process properly for complex tabular structures or complex tables."
"If something is handwritten and attached to an email, it doesn't capture the information correctly."
"Its functionality is good, but it has to be made more accurate. If it is not customized and handheld properly, the recognition and captures won't be accurate."
"The setup is medium complexity."
"It can be more user-friendly, and it should also have more reporting capabilities. There are also a few other things that need improvement."
"Knowledge of .NET is required to effectively use the solution or it can be complicated."
"I would say what most of the document management solutions are lacking is smartness to detect the duplicate storage of the documents."
"The area for improvement primarily centers around licensing concerns rather than technical issues. Captiva, intended for larger clients, poses challenges for medium and small businesses due to licensing costs. The current licensing model is based on volume, such as purchasing a volume for one million dollars per year for scanning. This pricing structure may be prohibitive for companies with constrained budgets. Another aspect requiring attention is the mobile capture feature, which, although experiencing recent enhancements in intelligent document processing through AI, could benefit from further improvements. Specifically, there is room for enhancement in enabling users to efficiently capture documents using their smartphones."
"We are using it to improve the image and the documentation for the cases. And sometimes, some cases have more than fifteen different types. We use some tools as fixed standard analysis and provide information to support the different types to take some decisions and help in an automated process. We choose the case type and subtype DNS scanning documents from the data entry up."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Based on what I've heard, it's costly, but I don't know much about its pricing."
"The certifications are free of cost."
"Time-wise: We have saved hundreds of thousands of hours."
"The cost is anywhere between $10,000 and $100,000."
"I've seen the price vary by whether the client is going to scale and adopt a tool."
"Our company is investing a lot of money in Automation Anywhere. They have saved money wherever humans are working. They invest a lot of money in FTEs and other logistics, so the money saving is very pretty good with Automation Anywhere. While I don't know the exact figure, the tool is saving us millions of dollars as well as saving about 40,000 hours in the last year."
"AA comes at a more affordable price than the other tools."
"Currently, it stands as one of the more expensive RPA tools available."
