Nadeem K.

Rpa Developer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees

Automation has freed teams from repetitive finance and supply tasks and supports global operations

In the current organization, we had trouble initially because I think the documentation and support could be better than what it is now. This is one difference between Automation Anywhere and other RPA tools such as UiPath. In UiPath, if you have an issue, you go to the UiPath website and search for it, and you get lots of help materials. In Automation Anywhere, you do not get exactly what you are looking for. You get a very large number of results when you search for something, and from this large result set, you have to filter out what you need, or only partial information will be available. User handbooks are available for each product. In that regard, I would say Automation Anywhere is lagging compared to other RPA tools. It is difficult to get hold of their customer support team. I want to clarify that it is not a matter of us building logic on Automation Anywhere and it failing. When it is a product-related issue, they have to give us support because we only know how to develop within Automation Anywhere. We do not know how to fix Automation Anywhere itself. Whenever we have an issue, trying to get in touch with them always takes three to four business days.

Senior Rpa Consultant at a computer software company with 51-200 employees

Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions

I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

Global Automation Lead - Customer Operations at a energy/utilities company with 10,001+ employees

Helped us identify areas where frontline staff aren't following standard procedures or using unexpected systems, giving us better insight into our end users' workflows

To analyze and make sense of the data generated by Kryon process discovery can be a lot of effort. It's not as automatic as some might think. It really depends on how many processes you have and how actively you use them. But the scalability aspect isn't necessarily about deployment or technical maintenance. It's really about how you analyze and gain insights from the data gathering. I'd rate the scalability a seven out of ten because the solution has been scaling well for a long time. It's very easy to deploy. But getting value out of it at scale can be a challenge, just like with any deployment. We use it mainly for process discovery. We actually proceed it from different teams. So, we have 15 licenses that we rotate with different people, actually through different teams. So, we do discovery for the online team; we gather the results after about two weeks to a month. We analyze those results, and then we deploy them again on the analytics team. We regularly deploy it to different teams. So, it's in constant use. It just runs on the systems through discovery mode most of the time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The support team is good and is able to resolve the issues or any challenges we encounter."

"We are able to sell it very easily compared to its competitors. Another piece is the stability part. The third piece is something which is the customer experience: The ease to work with it. The Automation Anywhere, as a partner, is very easy to work with. They are there when you need them, whether you are in the initial journey of automation, you are figuring out what is the right opportunity, or whether you are in the journey of deploying the bot or support. They are there with you at each of those stages."

"Training videos are very good and include detailed examples, which is really helpful for beginners."

"With Agentic capability, you can actually do those things; it has memory, it has access to tools, and it can do the job on our behalf as opposed to just telling us what to do."

"It's a great product, timely support, and guidance."

"Tasks or activities that were taking almost six hours a day have been reduced drastically to 30 minutes, which saves time as well as business costs."

"The bot creation process is relatively simple."

"It is very self-explanatory, making it easy for non-technical users to develop."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"There are not many challenges when setting up this solution, and there is a good amount of documentation to go with it."

"Now, we have standardized responses, and our customers are getting better, error-free, and on-time responses."

"The most valuable feature of BotFarm is the fact that we can use escalations when we need more computer power to fulfill all embargo that we receive in one day."

"The most valuable feature is the interface, which helps to provide a good user experience."

"One of the most valuable features is the solution's simple automation regarding object cloning and strings variables."

"Overall, we've been happy with the solution."

"Automation Anywhere provides a very flexible UI."

"The solution is great to automate any repetitive tasks, which you might do on a daily basis."

More BotFarm pros

"While we have only explored the simple use cases so far, Nintex RPA has good integration capabilities, such as working well with Gmail and Outlook to automate document handling and notifications."

"This rate system has allowed us to be more responsive and competitive with our rates with less human involvement."

"The recording capability is valuable because of the amount of data it captures automatically. It's quite good. It means less development, and fewer configuration settings to fill in after you're done."

"The thing that we find the most value in is the Process Discovery component and the ability to really see what users are doing on a day-to-day basis. We're starting to make sense of the processes that they're doing and getting visibility into what they're doing. Overall, the Process Discovery is very good."

"Those 15,000 hours saved are a fantastic result and we're at a 99 percent success rate."

"We took a very complex business area, and every activity in it which can be done automatically is being replaced by the robot instead of people working on it."

"The initial setup process is easy."

"I like Kryon RPA's ability to use automated and manual processes with any bot."

More Nintex RPA pros

Cons

"Version 11 is a bit heavy. At times, it takes a toll on the computing resources."

"The Automation Anywhere community is less active than the UiPath community, which is a downside. When I ask questions in the Automation Anywhere community, responses take a longer time."

"The user interface should be enhanced to make things simpler for the user."

"My experience has been that if the person who codes the bot is not very well-trained, then they might create unstable bots."

"Their support also needs improvement."

"To improve Automation Anywhere, I suggest enhancing the documentation and tutorials because sometimes they are not very clear."

"The setup and deployment processes for this product also need to be improved, e.g. made easier."

"We want it to work with more APIs. It needs to integrate with multiple APIs. That would be something that I would like going forward."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"The stability needs to be improved."

"The OCR command needs to improve. This feature is used to convert the extracted data from an image file. While converting this file I was facing a lot of issues with the data because it was getting lost and some of the data which was extracted was mismatched. The data loss was rated as a nine and the data accuracy was a massive decrease and was up to 80%."

"We do have some troubles with the internal software commands, but we have been troubleshooting this bug to fix it."

"I would like to see more process mining features to give us insight into them before we develop automation."

"One aspect that can be improved is the accessibility of reusable components for developers. It relates to role-based access and accessibility."

"We have connectivity and integration with pretty much every single tech stack across the table that we have in the world, and there are a few areas that they don't do that well yet. I'd be looking for some improvement there, in terms of their integration with certain products."

"The solution automation is incapable of interacting with our Pega software application development. It is based on the nested table concept and it is unable to read these tables. Several projects have been put on hold because of that."

"The solution can improve the accuracy of hand-written data reading"

More BotFarm cons

"There are limitations on integrations with other platforms like ServiceNow. There are some issues integrating."

"We have found some difficulties regarding the integration with legacy systems where the screen has elements in the Hebrew language. The connection to Hebrew, right-to-left systems, is more challenging."

"When a project is very big, a lot of memory is taken up."

"What we are lacking is OCR, the ability to read text."

"It would be better to have [upgrades] done automatically, like an application on your smartphone. Or even if done manually, the upgrade should just be "next, next, next," and it's upgraded, rather than making it a project to upgrade."

"Another major drawback is OCR. We are not able to read scanned documents correctly in a reliable way. There is always some margin of error. Some of the processes require us to read scanned documents, and you need to ensure that it is 100 percent accurate. Without that level of assurance, you can't automate such tasks."

"With the customer support, there have been some times where we have had to go through explaining the issue a couple times because it has gone through a couple of people's hands. There have been a couple of scenarios where we have had to re-explain the issue and bring somebody new up to speed on what is going on or what the problem is."

"I would like to see a better OCR solution. That's the main thing: identifying unstructured data, like all paper documents and data from pictures."

More Nintex RPA cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a bit higher."

"Approximately, for a developer, it is around $750 for a license a year. For Bot Runners, it is about $550."

"I am not involved in the pricing, but based on what I hear from our central RPA team, it is not very expensive; it is also not cheap. Its price is in the midrange."

"It is expensive. I would rate Automation Anywhere an eight out of ten in terms of pricing."

"It is fantastic. It has been great. It is perfectly priced for the quality received. When paying for quality, that is exactly what you get."

"Our annual licensing costs are about $500,000."

"The certifications are free of cost."

"The cost is at the highest end of the spectrum."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"The licensing is on a monthly basis."

"We pay approximately $15,000 USD per year."

"The pricing is fair."

"It is too expensive and not worth the price."

"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."

"Automation Anywhere is more reasonable than Blue Prism and UiPath in terms of cost."

"The pricing model could be simplified."

"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."

More BotFarm pricing and cost advice

"Compared to its competitors, Kryon RPA's pricing is very competitive."

"They license per robot and we have 25 robots. You get so many robot licenses and can allocate those licenses to either attended, unintended, or Process Discovery bots. If you have 25 licenses, for example, you could have 20 automation bots and five process discovery. This allocation is flexible. There are also maintenance costs."

"Can't beat the price... There are different pricing levels for every bot or unattended bot. You can buy however many you want. You'll need an additional virtual machine for it to work on."

"It is very cheap. I would rate the pricing a three out of ten, with ten being expensive."

"Kryon is slightly more expensive compared to UiPath."

"In addition to the standard licensing costs, there are manpower costs."

"We have been able to alleviate two FTEs, which was a big savings for us. We were able to reuse those resources in other locations. It is over 5000 hours a year in total savings."

"We've more than broken even over on the license. Year to date, we are at $120,000 in savings."
