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.

Long-term ticket management has become straightforward and supports efficient incident handling
The best feature of BMC Remedy is that you can easily understand all the features in it as they are not complicated. When you click on new incident, all the fields are self-explanatory regarding what is required to be put in the work details node section assigned to chrome. These are all pretty easy to understand, and nothing much training is required for a person to start working on BMC Remedy.

A user-friendly solution that has a good user interface, but its technical support is not good enough
Around 20 to 25 staff members are needed to deploy and maintain the solution, including two managers, one architect, and other implementers. IBM Tivoli Asset Management for IT does not adopt the latest technology. The solution can be integrated with our existing IT environment through some web services and connectors. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"UI and document automation are two features I like. Document automation is helpful because it simplifies extracting and putting data into different ERP systems. I have three or four use cases for document automation. I also like the recorder objects feature, which was called object learning in the previous version, and screen scraping."
"Automation Anywhere's support has been great since we signed up for gold support last year."
"Automation Anywhere helped me achieve three main goals: reducing repetitive manual work, improving process consistency, and scaling automation while maintaining centralized control and monitoring."
"It has improved a lot. We could identify a lot of manual processes that can be automated for our customers. The scope of automation by using Automation Anywhere has become wonderful. IQ Bot and AI sense are the incredible features provided."
"By automating most of our LOB's on the healthcare side and putting it on production, we have saved millions of dollars and were also able to achieve FTE benefits."
"AA has improved our organization in a positive manner."
"On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Automation Anywhere a nine."
"The management works well."
"It's a scalable product."
"The solution helps to manage the operational flow in our organization."
"There are a lot of features a customer can use. It’s an existing concept of asset management. One feature is the ability to create tickets for various computer systems, VPN defenses, sites, regions, or customers."
"BMC Remedy Asset Management is pretty easy for quite a lot of functions."
"We can create our own profile in BMC Remedy, track how many tickets we've closed on a daily basis, monitor how many SLAs we've escalated, and see how many tickets we've received daily."
"The customer support is great, maybe that's because I'm with a big client."
"I would tell potential users that this is a good and reliable solution; it's a solution that has stood the test of time, not something new that hasn't been used extensively, and many Fortune 500 companies use it, so it's definitely a good solution."
"The most valuable features of BMC Remedy are its ease of use, ease of installation, and customization capabilities."
"IBM Tivoli Asset Management for IT is a user-friendly solution that has a good user interface."
 

Cons

"After implementing, I have seen that some customers are not getting ROI from that, so they are stepping back from using Automation Anywhere."
"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."
"There are a number of current tools which can be improved because they have many limitations. Like some better controls in emails, and better support for features in Excel and PDF."
"The pricing, setup cost, and licensing of the platform are the worst. This is my major concern and complaint."
"Additional features should involve the Cognitive Section where we need more Advance solutions involving ML & AI."
"Off the top of my head, I cannot think of anything that they would need to improve on, but there are probably opportunities to explore some potential use cases where maybe there is a feature that is not yet available. We can discover and pioneer something together."
"We would like to have a better debugging facility."
"I noticed that from version 10.5 to 11.3 the number of clicks to start a bot through the Control Room and Schedule Manager have increased. In certain cases, I would like to see that become simpler, faster, and easier."
"BMC Remedy Asset Management could improve by adding intuitive dashboards."
"In BMC Remedy, integration is a problem and even APIs are not available."
"However, from a stability perspective, we sometimes had issues, like running out of resources, maxing out, database issues, and the server freezing out and functioning at fifty percent."
"There is room for improvement in integration with various platforms. The support services should be improved. The response time from the support team should be faster."
"The licensing model of BMC Remedy Asset Management should improve. It is expensive and it is difficult to understand."
"The UI is quite outdated."
"BMC works through intermediaries or vendors for support, so you don't always interact with BMC directly. The quality can vary depending on the specific vendor."
"The product's scalability is one area with certain shortcomings that need to be considered for improvement."
"The solution’s initial setup is complex and technical support is not good enough."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing costs range from $50,000 to $200,000."
"As far as costs, it depends on your use. We started with a basic department pack, which is over 10K. The additional costs depend on the scale of the engagement and how it pans out. We customize to our needs on the go."
"When you compare the cost of Automation Anywhere with UiPath and Blue Prism, those others are much less. Licensing-wise, UiPath wins the deal."
"Approximately, for a developer, it is around $750 for a license a year. For Bot Runners, it is about $550."
"We would like them to change the license model of charging per bot."
"The pricing model can be a bit more flexible."
"The Community Edition is a good offering from the company."
"Pricing is a bit high when compared to other available tools; however, the tool is worth the cost."
"The product is costly. On one to ten points, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the product's price as nine."
"The tool is expensive."
"I find the pricing to be reasonable."
"The pricing is in-between. It's not too cheap, and it's not too expensive. For a large organization, it's worth it. But for a smaller one, it might be a bit costly."
"With the product, you can either go for a yearly or a perpetual licensing model."
"It is an expensive tool."
"BMC Remedy is worth its price."
"Pricing is expensive compared to lower-end solutions, but it's on par with ServiceNow."
"IBM Tivoli Asset Management for IT is an expensive solution."
