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.

Leading-edge NLP capabilities, efficient training of machine learning models, and the automation saves us significant time
The machine learning capability is good. The algorithm helps us to get the right data with less training effort. The technology seems to be a little bit ahead of the standard NLP software. They use more pattern recognition, rather than basing everything on reading static text. The problem with relying on an unchanging text is that it can depend on things such as the formatting, and where things appear within a document. This solution can process complex formats, which is helpful for us because we get a lot of PDFs and they come in many different formats. As an example, a carrier might include a list of their rates in a table, whereas a different carrier will write their rates into a paragraph, and yet another will put them into some sort of graphic. If you only capture text then you will only capture part of that data. Pattern recognition ultimately helps us to circumvent the problems in dealing with format variability in documents and allows us to capture the right data. When it comes to predicting what it is that a document needs manual intervention, CMR Plus does it pretty well. They have a QA cycle that is usually able to highlight such data. The content recognition ability, in terms of giving us only the data that we need and nothing else, is pretty good. It has a positive effect on our efficiency and by extension, it impacts our infrastructure costs.

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

"The Control Room is the most important feature, where we can manage the bots and publish to various bot runners in the environment."
"They have an AI platform with GenAI implemented to help us generate anything that is necessary for automation."
"The technical support is good, and we have not had any issues."
"My impression of the Bot Store is good. It is a really smart offering. A lot of the time customers need the same things, and there's not necessarily a lot of logic in reinventing the wheel. When you take the Bot Store, you allow people to share knowledge, you allow best practices to be immediately adopted by users, and you can share good knowledge, saving a lot of time for customers. It's a really good thing."
"This solution has gives us greater employee satisfaction because manual recurring work has been reduced."
"V.11 has three different recorders but A2019 Automation Anywhere created an all-in-one recorder called Universal recorder which more reliable to use."
"This solution is easy to use and understand, even for a non-technical person."
"The MetaBot is a very good feature that allows me to do things that were not available in earlier versions."
"Pattern recognition ultimately helps us to circumvent the problems in dealing with format variability in documents and allows us to capture the right data."
"This product has helped to boost our overall efficiency and performance, giving us the ability to automate many manual tasks and collect the right data for our analytics so we can serve our clients more effectively."
"The automation provided by this solution has saved us a lot of time."
"We can integrate document understanding with other systems and applications."
"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."
"For me, the most valuable aspects of UiPath Document Understanding are its time efficiency and minimal human intervention."
"The taxonomy and Validation Station are among the most helpful features for us. If anything is extracted incorrectly, we can manually extract it there."
"UiPath Document Understanding offers valuable features like Arabic language support, which is crucial for effective communication and automation in the Arabic-speaking world."
"The most valuable feature is the ability for humans to train the bot."
"The solution is quite stable, and I am happy with its performance in my programs and processes."
"It's great for document understanding for invoices and installments."
 

Cons

"I would like to see web and cloud-based platforms for future releases."
"I would definitely say Citrix automation is one area we have continued to struggle with for the last two months."
"Looking at the POC's requirements and use cases, our customers are asking us for the OCRing of handwritten documents."
"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."
"I'd love to see the ability to build web or mobile applications that are integrated with Automation Anywhere bots, so that a user can work on a web interface directly. Then, it can be linked to the Automation Anywhere bots in the background. They just hit a button, and all the data or information will be used by the bot to do some process in the back end."
"It is not able to use OCR effectively and has limited usability."
"One of the things that the product should have is to add more advanced level developer capabilities into the platform. I know it is easy for business, non-technical people. However, for the developers, there should be some more features within the product so they can build advanced level use cases much faster."
"For improvement, I would like to see Automation Anywhere integrating with multiple other technologies."
"It would be very helpful to have a simple and extensive training guide, or training model, to help learn how to work with the product."
"We would like to see the overall accuracy increase from approximately 70% to perhaps 85%."
"There is room for improvement in handwriting processes."
"UiPath Document Understanding has challenges with handwriting and screenshots."
"It would be ideal if they could include more packages for more use cases."
"The rising annual licensing cost of UiPath's Document Understanding product is a major turnoff for users."
"They can include some features in utilizing the product of assessment understanding, or more specifically, a better efficient handling of the ML skill, which right now is not that efficient."
"There could be a feature similar to ChatGPT where when you ask about a document, you get an answer about what is there in that document. If possible, this kind of feature can be incorporated so that you do not need to open a file and take the value. It should directly detect that instead of opening and validating the document. Such a feature will speed up the process."
"The main area for improvement for UiPath Document Understanding is pricing."
"An area for improvement in UiPath Document Understanding is data extraction from scanned documents. It could be better because I've observed a ten percent failure or flaw whenever the vendor scans and converts documents into PDFs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an annual subscription for Automation Anywhere."
"Currently, it stands as one of the more expensive RPA tools available."
"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."
"We have saved a lot of money on taxes based on the stuff that we run."
"They all are very competitive today. At the end of the day, it boils down to the negotiations that happen and what type of partner you are."
"Licensing costs range from $50,000 to $200,000."
"Initially, they charged a premium, but now the rest of the vendors have increased their overall pricing and Automation Anywhere is not that high at this time. It's pretty viable."
"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."
"The pricing is really good, and it's based on usage."
"UiPath's pricing model is complex and based on AI units, which are consumed during model training and use."
"It is expensive. The license cost for UiPath Studio has risen to around 3.5 lakhs last year, and I am uncertain how much the increase will be this year. They have also increased the bot prices."
"I have only been using its free version."
"UiPath is a pricey tool for small customers."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution a nine."
"UiPath Document Understanding is expensive, with the basic annual package including 6,000 documents and the next package including one million documents, a huge price difference."
"Our clients are concerned about the volume-based pricing model, as UiPath charges more than other vendors in the market."
"It's expensive, but you can reduce the price per license by getting more licenses. Overall, the pricing is okay."
