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.

Delivers increased productivity and streamlines fraud processing in banking, though technical support could be faster

Before AutomationEdge, we had to hire coder-level experts with Java or Python knowledge. This approach took considerable time and required error handling to automate processes. With this tool, all processes are automatically handled with errors, and no-code automation is available. The cost for a developer is now significantly lower. Previously, we hired highly efficient developers with high salary packages. The license cost of 5 to 10 lakhs per year for one person to automate is equivalent to a person's annual salary. With the license and a developer hired at 3 to 5 lakhs, we can automate 40 to 50 processes.

It's easy to create Python libraries and custom scripts for a particular client and general use cases

We've had conversations with the head of Robocorp over Slack about things we want to improve. We want to introduce some packages, but the authentication tokens and many other things are not there. We can do it in Python, but the custom packages are unavailable. We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities. I don't know if they have updated the UI in the latest version, but they could improve that. The UI selector isn't that great. It would be nice to take elements from the console and customize parts. Everything is based on command lines, which I do not like. A flow chart with block items would be good for optimizing code. I would also like more support tools for developers so it's easier to understand when passing code to others.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have benefitted a lot now, but expect that we will benefit even more in the future as we get better at using intelligence."

"The cognitive automation gives us an edge towards intelligence using IQ Bot, and this allows us to integrate and give a combined solution to a customer."

"The object cloning is its most valuable feature."

"Automation Anywhere's most valuable features include generative AI, similar to Copilot, which will significantly benefit developers; low-code or no-code technology; and document automation capable of extracting data from structured and unstructured PDF formats, presenting it clearly and easy to follow."

"The product has everything that I want; I don't have to look for another tool to integrate with it."

"It can be easily learned by anyone who spends a bit of time with it."

"The way it integrates with subsystems is impressive. When automating business processes, there might be multiple systems in use. Automation Anywhere provides various ways to connect, such as by directly using backend APIs or using the frontend. This is incredibly useful."

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

More Automation Anywhere pros

"If we want to change your processes, we can code it from scratch, making it a beneficial feature of the product."

"It helps us with cost optimization and easy implementation."

"The support from the vendor is very good."

"The chatbot that they have is most valuable. It is one of the best features because they own it, and they don't need to integrate with other parties to have a chatbot. This is one of the main features. The rest of the features are common to all RPA tools or vendors available in the market."

"We can quickly adapt to our end users."

"The ability to automate our processes with external plug-ins and zero code is the most valuable feature."

"AutomationEdge is really easy to use because the workflows are simple."

"The initial setup was easy and straightforward."

More AutomationEdge pros

"The process execution and all features are very good."

"As a developer, I found it easy to integrate third-party applications with Robocorp. I have previous experience with Selenium, and I found the Robocorp framework to be accessible because it uses Python and Selenium keywords."

"The ability to create separate organizations on this platform makes it easier to bill each of the clients separately."

"It offers high scalability and enables automation in ways that haven't been possible before."

"It supports Python runtime because of that, runtime also improves."

"I can use it as a library by importing Python scripts, allowing me to access its many features while working with coding."

"I have worked with UiPath and Automation Anywhere previously. Robocorp offers an improved development style and support as well as flexibility of its tools. You can easily develop custom libraries in Robocorp."

More Robocorp pros

Cons

"Cognitive services and PDF file automation should be refined."

"The technical support needs improvement."

"When they develop the product, they don't always provide all the necessary details that a customer needs to implement the product."

"I attended and successfully completed the certification for the Document Automation Masterclass. For this, we tried to automate handwritten documents, but it was not successful. I believe there is room for improvement. This was the only use case we had in the last couple of months where we attempted this and did not get the desired results."

"As a developer, the biggest con is the lag; it's pretty inconvenient to face that delay in things happening."

"One day, there will be a message box saying that the application is down or not available on a weekend. The instructions will say read the information and click, "Okay." But a bot doesn't understand the instructions because it is not the IQ system."

"The initial setup was not that great. The road was very up and down."

"They could improve the learning curve."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"There are some shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement."

"We cannot use extra modules while working with AutomationEdge. It crashes if we have lots of data to process in Excel."

"While I find AutomationEdge generally stable, I believe that stability needs to be improved a little."

"They could provide more technologies for IT and security to enhance machine learning capabilities."

"In the future, they should have a similar version for the cloud and on-premises, and the installation should be flawless within few minutes."

"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."

"It's not an intuitive tool."

"AutomationEdge's ecosystem has shortcomings and needs improvement. When we compare AutomationEdge to other RPA tools in our company, we find that it has a very minor online community."

More AutomationEdge cons

"We use the latest version of the process studio and it takes up a lot of CPU storage. In our case, this has been up to 14 GB of storage."

"The standard libraries in Robocorp should be more advanced."

"The platform's documentation could be better."

"The deployment process is complex and not straightforward, especially for legacy modernization."

"I don't like the complexity of deployment."

"They should fully develop Robocorp Studio because it would attract a lot of people to the Robocorp platform."

"I preferred the user interface in the older versions. When troubleshooting, it's sometimes hard to find details about where things went wrong. You need to search a little harder. It takes more clicks to get to where you want to go. It can be somewhat confusing. When you run a process that fails, it takes you somewhere you may not expect."

"The solution could be more stable."

More Robocorp cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The certifications are free of cost."

"No one is balking at the cost. They are market rates and will change, but no one is saying, "That is ridiculous or impossible." They are saying, "Show me the ROI and prove that the cost is accurate.""

"Automation Anywhere offers a subscription-based licensing model for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid deployments."

"They sell it by license, but if they could charge by case or by interaction, that might be better. Right now, it's expensive when you want to scale or use them for simple processes."

"The pricing of AA is similar to UiPath."

"The pricing is fair. My company is part of a big organization, so the pricing is very advantageous."

"There may be room for the product to be more competitively priced to excel in the market."

"The licensing cost of Automation Anywhere is better than UiPath and Blue Prism."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."

"If you are looking for a budget solution, you can consider AE. It has all the features. Scaling it is way easier because of the cost itself."

"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."

"Pricing can be made better. Currently, I think the pricing is based on the market. The pricing also depends on the business partners that offer you the solution."

"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."

"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."

"The product is available at the lowest price."

"In terms of licenses, there is a return on investment in that area."

"It's a cost-effective solution."

"Robocorp is much better in terms of pricing compared to UiPath."

"You don't have to pay for the license. You have to pay for the time you use it."

"The product has good pricing."

"The pricing is fine."

"The price is cheaper than other competitors. I would rate the cost as one out of five."

"The solution is a very affordable price."
