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.

Self-service portal significantly reduces resolution time and transforms service process with advanced features
We initially had a lot of tickets generated via the service desk through calls and emails. Now, we have almost moved out of email creations by introducing the DWP features on the Studio pages, with about 90% of the tickets coming in via our self-service portal. Recent upgrades offer different types of views for particular business lines, which was missing earlier. The new landing pages have allowed us to add banners, images, and internal videos, encouraging most customers to use these DWP self-service features. Resolution time has decreased significantly since implementing the self-service portal. Additionally, the availability of knowledge articles, chatbots, and the new Helix GPT feature has improved service processes.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution helps with reducing operational costs, which can be reduced by up to 30% to 40% in savings in terms of operational cost."
"For the beginners, it is an easy tool compared to other tools in market. Users can understand the line by line code and code it easily. There is no syntax or anything else. They can easily drag and drop, executing the bot directly."
"One thing I appreciate about Automation Anywhere is that we do not need to run around with multiple platforms, because Automation Anywhere provides an end-to-end solution."
"The capacity to use Automation Anywhere in the cloud is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is very easy to implement."
"Before switching to the cloud version of Automation Anywhere, I worked with v10 and v10, so I appreciate the core functionality and the fact that it's a low-code solution. That is one of the key elements that differentiates Automation Anywhere from other platforms and one of the reasons we have been able to achieve success."
"Automation Anywhere has a uniqueness with respect to the IQ Bot."
"We work in the business process outsourcing arena, it has improved our organization mainly around freeing up people to do other things and that can be quite large numbers, in the high tens, even hundreds of people that can be freed up to do other work."
"The BMC Remedy products are reliable and cover all the ITIL processes."
"This product has helped us to maintain our OLAs (Organisation level Agreements) and SLAs (Service Level Agreements) by tracking incidents, requests, problem records, and change requests, all in the form of tickets."
"Service Request Management was the first big win for our company."
"BMC Remedy ITSM application solution is one of the best solutions in the market."
"The maturity of ITSM processes has been very good; I think it's excellent."
"The versatility and customizability of the product is what I like most."
"If we consider major players like Ford or BMW, their core focus is manufacturing products like cars. To ensure smooth operations, any arising issues, be it security concerns or issues within departments like HR or finance, require a swift resolution. This is where the product comes into play. It provides a platform for raising tickets and obtaining quick solutions."
"The most valuable features of BMC Helix ITSM are the service level management, configuration, and reporting tool."
"The solution's technical support is very responsive."
"The user-friendly solution enables business users to extract data in various formats independently. Additionally, it controls access, allowing for data masking of sensitive information within Oracle. These features contribute positively to the user experience, especially from the perspective of business users."
 

Cons

"When it comes to Citrix automation, AA should improve or add more features in such a way that all the commands should work when automating a Citrix application."
"It takes a lot of time to deploy, and sometimes it fails after a timeout."
"The AI centricity is a bit behind compared to the way we see Microsoft and AWS doing it. This is the feedback that I have also given to them. They need to expand themselves to provide more services than just RPA. Only RPA may not be enough for us, and it would not be our preferred choice for an automation tool."
"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 would like them to add OCR features. This would help us deal with unstructured data and we can get more data out of images."
"The initial setup is difficult because Automation Anywhere does not have a GitHub integration. They need to build a patch for that."
"Automation Anywhere has a lot of room for improvement. It is not customer-friendly."
"As a solution, it could have been easier to use than in the current state."
"Regarding reporting, when sharing information with leadership, we utilize BI support and data or more analytical tools. These tools provide accurate and comprehensive reports, covering various aspects. Reports are either sent directly through email or automated using scripts. It would be beneficial to integrate similar capabilities into BMC for future use. Many applications we work with already have a centralized virtual automation tool, such as Control M, but manual effort is still required. Improvements in automation for accurate and efficient reporting in BMC would be valuable."
"Log in process is unnecessarily complicated."
"Customer Service: Fairly good. Much of it is in Asia and as in with most foreign customer support there is that occasional “understanding the accent” problem, but apart from that they are fairly good at what they do."
"The reports need improvement, it is not a good functioning tool."
"The Approval Central system needs to be refreshed."
"There are certain functions, such as status, which changes based on the email and last action taken by individual. Anyone can easily manipulate this functionality."
"Integration could be better. If something doesn't work well with some tools and operations, then management becomes difficult, so you have to integrate other tools."
"It needs to be more comfortable for the end-user."
"I recommend enhancing the user interface to make the product more user-friendly for business users. Identifying queries that apply to Oracle technical assessments would be beneficial, particularly for Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) or other specific ready-made packages."
"The concerns where improvements are required lie in the area of finance revolving around aspects like receivables and the general ledger."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere is costlier than the general competition. That is aligned with the share of the market it has."
"Automation Anywhere pricing and licensing are competitive compared to the other automation vendors."
"Their overall pricing falls in the middle of the market. Cost-wise, Automation Anywhere is quite expensive because of their analytics, IQ Bots, and MetaBots. For a standalone machine, the pricing is okay. When adding in the licensing for IQ Bots (or MetaBots), it can become quite costly."
"The licensing needs to be made simpler or shortened."
"The pricing is reasonable and one can achieve ROI faster when compared to other tools."
"Our annual licensing costs are around $100,000 a year."
"I am not sure about the costs, but two Bot Runners and four Bot Creators may cost approximately 1CR."
"The starting price, which is a one-off fee is a bit high and this may deter mid and small-sized companies from acquiring and decide to shun the platform."
"I rate the product price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. The solution is expensive."
"If Customer and IT agents are happy, that is one of the greatest ROI. However, one of the major factors is Leadership, because at the end they have to justify the cost."
"The cost is relatively high, especially for the BMC Controller application. However, the expense is justified by the standard and reliable features it offers. This product's reputation in the market is strong, providing assurance in terms of data and other considerations."
"The price of BMC Helix ITSM is expensive."
"Just make sure you really sit down and look at what you will be using per user, therefore you will not be surprised with a big bill. You do not want every user having every license, it really is not needed."
"BMC Helix ITSM is a very cost-effective solution."
"There are licenses to use this solution."
"We did not compare the price of BMC Helix ITSM to other vendors. However, it has a mid-range price."
"The tool is cheap, but monthly subscriptions are a bit high."
"I rate the product price a six or a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
