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.

Centralized task tracking has transformed team collaboration and has saved significant time
The features or capabilities of AppSheet that I have found the most valuable include Freeze Panes, which is one of the most valuable features, and Dropdown, which is another valuable feature. Freeze Panes is extremely important because it freezes the first top row of the sheet. When I'm scrolling the sheet and going down, I can see the first row on the screen full time while scrolling to my data. This is a very beautiful feature of Google Sheets. Additionally, the dropdown feature allows me to write yes, no, and not applicable against a particular line item without typing every time by creating a dropdown. I write it once with yes, no, not applicable, and then I select that option. The real-time updates in AppSheet improve collaboration in my team because 40 people in the same department operate on a single Google Sheet. They all update their tasks, their projects, and everything on that same sheet, which is a massive leap in technology. Otherwise, I would be mailing a single Excel sheet to 40 people and getting everybody's input from them all manually, which would be extremely time-consuming. It's a massive technology jump when it comes to collaboration.

Directly integrates with AWS, interface functions are great and it's all in one package
I like that Honeycode directly integrates with AWS as it reduced the friction in setting up the back end. When I started working with Honeycode, I didn't have the resources to set up a server and go internally within the company so it was helpful to be able to create an account, start coding, and get the job done. The interface functions are great. Everything I needed to do was in one package. It's invaluable for small companies that are starting out and don't have a huge amount of resources.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Features like reusing each and every piece of code for things such as login scripts and data extraction scripts helped us to speed up the implementation of PoC for the client."
"We are able to create robotic tasks in a short time."
"It's very easy to use. It helps streamline manual processes."
"The most valuable feature is its easy to use."
"It automates forms for our customers and our analysts."
"We have had a very good experience with Automation Anywhere and we are very happy with the solutions."
"By using this, we are saving time and we no need to do routine work, as it is now automated and the result is shared with all of the end-users."
"None of the commands are unique to Automation Anywhere, which allows beginners to leverage external knowledge."
"The solution has been very user friendly, easy to use, and we are able to use many applications like Excel or Google sheets."
"The solution allows for many great features, including easy column formatting that automatically applies the correct formats for phone numbers and dates, helpful data linking, robust email integration, very good security, and it is a very good no-code development platform."
"The solution is quite efficient, elaborate, sophisticated, fast, and easy to use."
"I have found the way they structure the workflow and the fact that it a progressive application is valuable for me. This allows me to be able to build it once and use it in multiple formats."
"We have built a workflow using this solution to do our day-to-day operations and then monitor our agents in the field, and we are able to track their work when they do projects and when they finish their tasks, getting a report on all of this information which has definitely made life easier."
"The real-time updates in AppSheet improve collaboration in my team because 40 people in the same department operate on a single Google Sheet, and they all update their tasks, their projects, and everything on that same sheet, which is a massive leap in technology."
"The security of the solution is very good."
"I chose this solution because it was cheaper than other competitors, more flexible and safe."
"Great having everything in one package; invaluable for companies without huge resources."
 

Cons

"The quality and response time of the support, even on Sev-1 tickets, is not satisfactory."
"They need to make the AA stable across all browsers and I hope to see it fixed in the next version."
"Vertical connecting lines would be appropriate within the code, and a collapse/expand feature for code blocks would be ideal."
"The expectations of what we thought was possible, versus what appears to be possible, were a little bit off."
"The areas in which the product and service must be improved are in the government sector and ministries such as the Ministry of Education and Health."
"They have a ridiculously expensive bot licensing structure, especially for the Asian region."
"We looked at the Bot Store initially and didn't find much."
"Automation Anywhere can include database commands like insert row, bold row, etc commands in 11.x"
"No improvements are required as AppSheet is quite efficient."
"If I need more than that figure, then I'm not sure how scalable AppSheet is."
"Stability is the leading risk. We can't ensure that the solution will last since, if Google decides something, it's finished."
"What I think could be improved or enhanced in AppSheet includes the timeline feature, as that is something which is a real pain point and not very efficient in Google Sheets."
"The solution needs to improve its SQL database capabilities."
"In terms of areas for improvement in AppSheet, I do many things with it, and I'm happy with its data features. The solution has good data features, and though some basic functions may not be there, AppSheet is good enough for me at the moment. I can use it in my business. I like it, and I'm still happy with it because I'm not using it intensively. I just use AppSheet for simple tasks rather than complex ones, though the solution has many use cases. In its next release, what could make the solution better would be more partners for integration, for example, integration with SAP, particularly plugins or APIs with more partners that it could integrate with. There should be an out-of-the-box feature built for integration with more partners."
"They only give a single sign-on at a very high cost. The pricing is too high and the overall solution is far too expensive."
"There needs to be an improvement in their operation vision. They need to see things more globally because at the moment they are very North-America focused. We do not always have mobile applications and the way we use them is slightly different in Africa from the way they use them in America."
"It's not possible to significantly differentiate some of the UI elements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"One of the key features that we chose, the bot as a service or the BotFarm, when they launched version 11.3, they decided not to have the BotFarm anymore. This put us in a situation because we expected to have bots on demand, just like our cloud software. This would have been cost efficient for us to use. We hope to see this again being realized with A2019. I hope the scalability from an on demand basis improves."
"I don't agree with the IQ Bot licensing costs, which depends on the consumption of the document rather than per bot or user. This is confusing for me, because most of the cases for us in a possible future scenario, there would be a lot of invalid data to be scanned to get to real data. E.g., we would have to supply approximately 100 pages of scanned data to extract two pages of original data. In these type of cases, the IQ Bot might be a costly venture."
"AA comes at a more affordable price than the other tools."
"It is fantastic. It has been great. It is perfectly priced for the quality received. When paying for quality, that is exactly what you get."
"It saves me around $100,000 a year."
"It's fine. However, I'm concerned with the credits in terms of the pricing for the AI models. It is understandable that the new ones are more expensive, but the base models, after doing the pricing conversion, cost about four to ten times as much as paying directly."
"Whatever investment, licensing, and resource costs together are put in for development and delivery, we are still at an ROI of 250 percent."
"While calculating the setup cost you should account for the server, virtual machines, product licenses, maintenance costs, and running costs."
"I chose this solution because it was cheaper than other competitors."
"In terms of how much AppSheet costs, I'm currently on the free tier, but if I need to add more users to it in the future, I will go with the paid version."
"The tool is available at a low price."
"There is a license required to use this solution and it costs approximately $10 per user a month. I am paying $300 a month for 30 licenses."
