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.

Provides good stability, but it could be intuitive and easier to use
The product’s current version could be easier and straightforward to work with small IT organizations, similar to the older version. Its asset management feature has been significantly affected since the upgrade. Earlier, it was able to perform skill-based routing automatically. We could set up parameters within the system and view the details of the incident or a ticket. The same functionality needs to be fine-tuned in the new system.

User-friendly modules impress with customization options while IT knowledge base updates remain incomplete
It's a vast product, and we use ManageEngine IT Asset Management because it has an Ops Manager, Event Viewer, Site 24/7, PAM360, and AD Manager among many options that we plan to explore in the future environment. ManageEngine IT Asset Management explores detailed aspects such as RAM frequency, RAM brand, product, expiry date, users, roles, technicians, groups, support groups, Active Directory, SAML, single sign-on, LDAP, Microsoft Entra ID, proxy settings, and template forms. We are satisfied with the product because each module is user-friendly, and we can customize it based on our organization's requirements. We are looking into the automated IT asset discovery feature. We have configured the incoming and outgoing mail server so that when users send an email to our standardized mail ID, it automatically creates a ticket. In the future, we will explore automation features such as SLA, KPI, and KRA to align targets, manage resources, assess project utilization, and assign tickets based on priority levels.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is easy to fix bug issues which you encounter in the post-production process."
"What I appreciate most about Automation Anywhere is that it really saves time and reduces a lot of errors, which would have happened if we had to use manual work; so it has that aspect of time saving and reducing errors that are usually made when doing that work manually."
"It is very self-explanatory, making it easy for non-technical users to develop."
"The solution's primary benefit is improved efficiency. Automation Anywhere enabled us to enhance many processes that were previously done manually. It helps save time while improving compliance by keeping the data clean. We've also increased visibility for our end-users because we use the data from Automation Anywhere to build dashboards."
"It has reduced the number of full-time employees."
"Workflow automation has helped a lot with cost reduction, greater accuracy, and delivery speed."
"At the end of the day, the effort that you put in has exponential benefits, giving you many advantages from your lines of code, which is amazing."
"Automation Anywhere is unlike any other software; Automation Anywhere provides me with my bread and butter, and I just love the tool."
"The solution is quite stable, and we've found it to be reliable and free from bugs and glitches that affect its usability."
"Using the Help Desk and Purchasing modules, they let us keep track of all the issues in our organization and analyze them for trends."
"Using their problem management process, we can use parent/child tickets and set up public views for our problem work orders."
"We use it to create and manage our work orders."
"Our efficiency has improved drastically due to a massive reduction in phone calls."
"The customization of the product and reporting capabilities have allowed us to provide upper management the graphs (data) they request that helps validate specific needs that we (IT) have."
"We can manually capture the assets available within the location."
"Our users have come to expect availability and quick responses, and we are able to provide this thanks to the Track-IT! solution."
"We are satisfied with the product because each module is user-friendly, and we can customize it based on our organization's requirements."
"This is a very stable solution."
"The technical support is great."
"In my opinion, it is the MDM; patch management and deployment are the valuable features."
"It is a great product, and we are very satisfied with the features."
"It's very smart. I use it with minimal adjustments needed."
"ManageEngine IT Asset Management helps with guarantee and warranty period management, license expiration tracking, device patches, and integration with our finance system for depreciation and invoicing."
"The most valuable component of the ITSM tool is the help desk due to its organized way of raising tickets."
 

Cons

"We have observed that AA gets locked sometimes."
"We had a major issue when it came to single sign-on. We couldn't get it working."
"I would like to see more bots available right out-of-the-box in the SAP area."
"I want the tool to be more stabilized. After three or four hours, the navigation keeps changing. We will be running error handling for 8,000 process and the system will fail. We need it to be more stable."
"We have used the technical support. I am quite unhappy with the support part."
"We have done some automation of incoming documents, but it has been somewhat hard."
"One aspect I don't appreciate about Automation Anywhere is the way variables are handled. Many things seem to become a string, which makes it hard to code and keep track of items when everything's a string."
"Some things that I do not see as of today are interactive chat or video interface."
"The solution is cumbersome to use."
"There are a few items that I would like changed or extra features that could be added to our current version of this software, but those are all going to be addressed in a future software update."
"The product’s current version could be easier and straightforward to work with small IT organizations, similar to the older version."
"Currently, if you go and check the reports in the packet, the reports are useless; reporting is really bad."
"Track-It! works great for a mid-size company, but anything over 700 employees, and trying to use Track-It! for any other areas of the business is difficult."
"Their self-service is not user friendly."
"The area where we would like to see improvement is in the asset management module."
"The engineering area needs improvement."
"However, the issue is that the knowledge base often shows information for older versions such as versions 12, 13, or 11, while we are working with ManageEngine IT Asset Management 15.1."
"It requires some development to be better, more comfortable, and usable, enhancing customer satisfaction."
"Currently, we are having some challenges in managing assets. We are still managing them in Excel sheets and keeping a track of them outside the system."
"It would be helpful if there were a premium technician license that includes all the suites, eliminating the need to buy separate licenses for each feature."
"I hope it includes barcode features, as barcode scanning and MacAdes cannot currently be mapped with this field."
"The asset management tool is costly compared to other tools in the market."
"The assets that can be discovered are pretty easy to manage, but there should be a better way to manage non-discoverable assets. Our development team works on bots and tests particular hardware. They have got different varieties of hardware. They want a feature for managing these assets within a warehouse kind of environment. For example, our IT has received 100 items, and they have assigned these items as a bulk unit to a project manager. The project manager further wants to distribute these items within his or her team. Instead of maintaining a separate Excel sheet, the project manager should be able to reallocate these items from within the tool so that we have hierarchical entities for the same unit."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a bit higher."
"I think the pricing is reasonable, but clients often perceive it as expensive."
"We would like them to change the license model of charging per bot."
"It has good licensing costs which are average for the market."
"I think the solution's pricing is reasonable."
"There may be room for the product to be more competitively priced to excel in the market."
"The cost for scalability is much cheaper than developing a new system."
"If it is saving FTE and Generating a good ROI then it is Worth Investing."
"BMC Track-It!’s price is reasonable compared to other products."
"Its price is reasonable, but I wish it was lower."
