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

"A has a bouquet of features that can be used in our projects. We have utilized all the features in our existing projects. It may be task bots, meta bots, or IQ bots. The features in the AA bots may be object cloning or security features where the bots can be triggered only from the control room and will help clients to maintain their security concerns."
"SAP GUI Integration commands are highly useful while working with SAP applications and facilitate easy use of the software. This feature has been recently incorporated within the software and we have been using it to interface with SAP systems in development as well as production."
"In my day-to-day applications, I can integrate Automation Copilot easily as I can embed it within Workday, BambooHR, and Salesforce, allowing business users easy access to Automation Anywhere without logging into multiple applications, thus saving 85 to 90% of the time."
"Object cloning with an option to enter wildcard selection was very useful when working in a web application that generated dynamic HTML content."
"The features I most appreciate are the built-in version control system, historical log, audit trail features, and the breadth of RPA action commands included out of the box."
"While RPA is the cutting-edge technology to bring digital transformation, the RPA as a service will reduce costs and increase efficiency with ease of deployment, less maintenance, and cheaper upgrade costs."
"We have automated that complete process of code review. The bot is solving the problem of ensuring the compliance of reviewing code. People use to generally skip the code review process, because it was exhaustive. Bots can review the complete standards of the code, whatever is there, ensuring the compliance and eventually saving time."
"A cloud deployment typically takes no more than one business day."
"BMC Remedy Asset Management is pretty easy for quite a lot of functions."
"This product is good because it allows us to receive proper responses to business emails anywhere and anytime. It helps in effective communication with employees. The solution is stable. The product is scalable. The initial setup is straightforward. I recommend BMC Remedy, especially for its automation capabilities."
"The discovery feature of BMC Remedy has been very valuable."
"The service management features are beneficial – very good."
"The most valuable feature of the solution includes all of its components since they act as the authentication system of the product."
"The toolset is mature, easily integrable with various technologies due to its maturity, and has great scalability."
"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 solution is extremely user-friendly."
"IBM Tivoli Asset Management for IT is a user-friendly solution that has a good user interface."
 

Cons

"We've struggled with some of the new features Automation Anywhere added in the latest version. For example, they added a new OpenAI package, but it took a while for me to find it in the actions menu."
"I don't find a lot outside of the internal community forum."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved by integrating self-correction capabilities into the bots, particularly as we develop RPA, where changes in environment paths require additional redeveloping efforts."
"This solution could be more stable because sometimes I see some bugs."
"We've had a lot of issues with the installation and performance on a variety of computers, onshore and offshore. Our network bounds multiple domains, and we've had issues there, as well. So, we are looking forward to the web-based development versions."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved in certain areas specified in the cognitive zone where the information needs better OCR Engine + Machine Learning capabilities. Also, they can improve on the System Identified region function of the IQ Bot - Our team faced a tough time in handling that as we were not able to assign variable to System Identified Region as the IQ Bot tool wasn't allowing it."
"With Oracle and ServiceNow, there seem to be challenges. With SAP, it worked very well."
"It is not easy to integrate APIs with Automation Anywhere without a good knowledge of APIs."
"Maybe the network automation aspects need improvement."
"Our management is trying to leave BMC Remedy for ServiceNow."
"When it comes to CMDB, to be able to manage the data, you have to have Atrium integrator, another integrated tool."
"There are issues from a product functionality perspective."
"Continuous improvement is recommended."
"The solution is very expensive."
"I would like to have more customized reporting because the management team loves customized reports with graphs."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support."
"The solution’s initial setup is complex and technical support is not good enough."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We're on a license package with Automation Anywhere (AA), paid yearly. What would be better is for them to have different packages for different types of organization."
"It's somewhat pricier than some of the other tools that we've used, and the breakout between the different applications is also somewhat costly. If they can make it a little more cost-effective or bundle packages a little bit more, that would be beneficial."
"I have heard that Automation Anywhere is expensive."
"We are not receiving the right information about their features, e.g. Automation Anywhere University, or anything that they are selling. They need to improve their documentation."
"I think the solution's pricing is reasonable."
"One of the things that will be good for the community will be to get the free version to download, which came out just a month ago called Community Edition. So, you can actually download it and try it for yourself."
"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 licensing cost of Automation Anywhere is better than UiPath and Blue Prism."
"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."
"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."
"It is an expensive tool."
"The licensing model of BMC Remedy Asset Management should improve. It is expensive and it is difficult to understand."
"Pricing is expensive compared to lower-end solutions, but it's on par with ServiceNow."
"With the product, you can either go for a yearly or a perpetual licensing model."
"BMC should decrease the pricing further."
"The pricing is on the expensive side."
"IBM Tivoli Asset Management for IT is an expensive solution."
