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.

Automation has transformed invoice extraction and has reduced manual processing time dramatically

When it comes to improvements in UiPath IXP, there is a challenge with different languages, particularly Arabic invoices or handwritten ones, where there is some mismatch or difference in extraction. This could be improved. For instance, if there is a "Z" available on the screen, it may be identified as "2." Improvements in these two areas from the extraction point of view are necessary, along with considerations regarding pricing levels. In terms of support, UiPath is performing very well. Whenever we require assistance from UiPath, it has been positive. However, I would suggest that there is room for improvement in identifying complex different layout invoices, particularly for handwritten text, since there is potential for improvement in that area.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has absolutely been worth it for us and has provided us with good value."

"There has been a great return on investment."

"It an easy, simple, and user-friendly tool that can be accessed through the mobile application as well."

"We have more than 50 bots in the company, the FTE and ROI are very good, and in the future we have many projects in pipeline that we are about to implement, so definitely there is a good ROI and FTE savings for us."

"It really does have a great dashboard. It has Bot Insight, it has MetaBots, and IQ Bots. It has so many features where it can read a file and loop."

"It's very easy for business users to learn Automation Anywhere."

"We have saved time and money using this solution."

"It is very user-friendly. Nobody has to sit down and work on coding. We have a drag and drop option where anybody can understand it."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"In a project, I integrated Amazon Textract with Bedrock and passed the extracted document text to the LLM using Bedrock."

"The support is actually very good; I've worked with Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, but compared to the others, AWS support is excellent."

"Amazon Textract was easy to use."

"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."

"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."

"UiPath's Document Understanding significantly reduces the effort needed to train a machine-learning model for our documents."

"Previously, we needed three to four people for validating invoices, now we have scaled down to one part-time person who is mostly engaged in other responsibilities, with invoicing tasks occupying only around five percent of their work time."

"The taxonomy and Validation Station are among the most helpful features for us. If anything is extracted incorrectly, we can manually extract it there."

"We have seen a measurable difference in processing time with UiPath IXP, as previously the processing of 1000 plus invoices would require six to seven FTEs working for 10 to 15 days, and now we accomplish this in a couple of days with UiPath IXP due to the faster processing time."

"It has advanced capabilities compared to other competitors, whether Blue Prism or Automation Anywhere."

"AI Center is helpful for creating data sets. Machine learning helps with some extraction. The ML extractor gives good results after training."

"The entity-level extraction is very good. The workflow is also very good."

"The best feature, in my opinion, is, we can train the document using a machine-learning classifier."

More UiPath IXP pros

Cons

"On the document automation side, the document learning features are not as robust as one would expect them to be. When I am doing document automation and a document fails due to low confidence in populating a field, it requires manual correction."

"The platform has good capabilities, but it could improve by providing more development options."

"Regarding my experience with the pricing, setup cost, and licensing of Automation Anywhere, I have some concerns about the product licensing model."

"I feel a lack of convenience when I try to scale it."

"I would like to see a technology where they can automatically update or upgrade themselves to the latest version, without having to uninstall the current bot."

"On the cognitive side, some of their competitors, when we were originally shopping, were a little more advanced in that space. Making use of probabilistic outcomes and presenting them to a business user is a feature that, at the time of our evaluation, did not feel like a strong, mature solution for Automation Anywhere. Nevertheless, they won our business. That is one feature where I feel they are trying to make investments to address those gaps."

"There's a loss of overhead on the computing resources in Automation Anywhere. If you have an encrypted bot, the Automation Anywhere software has to read it first, decrypt it, and run it. So there is a potential that, if the logic of the bot isn't good enough, a lot of CPU and memory overload will happen. This is something which Automation Anywhere should look at because it takes a lot of computing resources. I have seen CPUs running at 100 percent."

"It would be helpful if we could start running a process from a particular step."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Some easy integration with other systems could be improved."

"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."

"They should provide an offline solution because in many areas in India and outside, there are clients facing Internet issues."

"UiPath Document Understanding, while effective for its own platform, could be even more valuable if it integrated with other commonly used platforms, allowing for a more universal approach to document processing."

"Right now, we are trying to use Instabase, which is another tool for document understanding. It may be one step ahead. It is faster than UiPath."

"There are also problems with handwritten documents. The results from those are not 90 percent accurate. With scanned and native PDFs, it is 90 to 99 percent accurate, but the accuracy of handwritten documents is somewhat less. If they could improve on that, it would also be helpful."

"The machine learning model needs improvement, as we receive more and more unstructured documents from clients that require a lot of manual validation."

"Sometimes we have challenges when we need to read something like a barcode, so we must use the Cisco algorithm to solve the issue, or I have to ask developers for help specifically to capture this kind of information. There are other processes, such as refunds, that we still must do manually because there is no way to use automation to solve this issue."

"The extraction can be better. ABBYY FlexiCapture has more capabilities than Document Understanding. It can also extract automatically without training, whereas with Document Understanding, we need to train everything."

"UiPath could improve its analytics and interface."

"There is room for improvement in handwriting processes."

More UiPath IXP cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is cost-efficient in terms of licensing. I found their support good when I was working for the airline client. However, I hear from my managers here that the support price for Tier 3 or premium is a little higher. That is why we are not going for Automation Anywhere. Its price was okay for our client, but for us, it seems expensive."

"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."

"We're paying a monthly subscription fee for the bot and for services. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."

"The cost is high for small-scale businesses but it is fine for medium and large enterprises. Its high licensing cost may affect small-scale businesses. Reducing licensing costs would benefit many users."

"It is expensive. Automation Anywhere has reduced the price slightly, as we have grown. However, the price is still excessive enough that we are engaged in PoCs on other tools."

"It is not cheap, with costs ranging between 700 to 800 dollars per month. While Power Automate is cheaper at 15 dollars per month, Automation Anywhere offers superior features, user-friendliness, and smoothness."

"I have heard that Automation Anywhere is expensive."

"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."

Information not available

"On a scale of one to ten with ten being the most expensive, I rate UiPath Document Understanding an eight on cost."

"I do not know about its price, but for large organizations, UiPath is cheap, whereas, for small organizations, UiPath is high. For example, if 500 licenses are needed for one company, UiPath is cheap. If only 5 licenses are required, UiPath is costly."

"I find the pricing to be somewhat on the higher side."

"I have only been using its free version."

"UiPath Document Understanding is priced high compared to its competition."

"UiPath Document Understanding is considered a bit expensive compared to other options like Microsoft Azure, which can offer similar quality at a more affordable rate."

"It's expensive, but you can reduce the price per license by getting more licenses. Overall, the pricing is okay."

"The solution’s cost increases for machine learning or artificial intelligence because we have to go for UiPath Orchestrator."
