Venkat Sivaprakash

Management Consultant at Accenture

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.

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.

Hemanth Pagadala

Senior Business Process Automation Engineer at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

Automation has transformed document processing and frees teams to focus on higher‑value analysis

Sometimes, we encounter system errors that could be resolved via support, but connection issues are more frequent in enterprise applications. However, these can usually be solved by raising tickets if you are part of an enterprise, though we are not, which makes it somewhat challenging. It is vital to ensure the connections of UiPath Platform are maintained because it has a larger community. If UiPath Platform website included more features and documentation accessible easily, it would greatly enhance the experience. Instead of continually needing to raise support tickets, having a documentation hub where details can just be entered to retrieve required documents would be extremely beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Automation Anywhere is very good for rapid development. It has all the capabilities in terms of giving a stable automation framework. It has very cool technical capabilities, like MetaBots, dev controls, and object cloning."

"Workbench, which is a development tool, is very friendly. It is complete. Compared to Power Automate, Automation Anywhere is much more comprehensive and easy to understand."

"The ease of use is its most valuable feature."

"When this technology first came to market, I thought it was about robotic things, which we cannot do, however, when I started to learn about Automation Anywhere, it's completely different; it's a user friendly tool with drag and drop commands and a person just needs technical, logical thinking."

"It is easy to code. While you have developers, somebody with a development or workflow mindset can logically build a bot in Automation Anywhere by understanding how to put a process in a workflow. If you have that, then you can logically build a bot in Automation Anywhere. Even a non-IT or business user can just look at the bot language and understand what the bot is doing, and that's the easy part."

"Automation is going to become a new area we will certainly encourage a lot of people to pursue because of the lasting dividends it provides, including saving time and manpower."

"It is a great solution."

"The development tools are very good. It's very user-friendly and easy to develop and deploy with Automation Anywhere. Ordinary people, within a few weeks, can develop a bot using the tool."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The scalability is the solution's most valuable aspect."

"The most important feature of BotFarm is web automation."

"Automation Anywhere has good document extraction features where it can learn patterns."

"The initial setup is straightforward."

"The main features of the solution are the IQ Bot and web-based automation."

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

"The dashboards are quite good, especially on the latest versions."

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

More BotFarm pros

"Overall, about 25% of our cost has been saved."

"The most valuable feature is the fluidity of the products. When I want to use RPA, I can use RPA. When I want to do process mining, I can do process mining. Those are the two top that I typically use it for."

"We were able to automate processes that use different systems with only one tool, and this approach has decreased the time of development and increased profit."

"The document understanding feature is perhaps the most significant and useful use case for UiPath."

"We help our clients to improve their businesses, reduce costs, for example, hiring new people to automate repetitive work, to be able to run a process when the need arises 24/7."

"The option to record processes is the most important feature of UiPath. We can use it to record every action automatically and it is then converted to a workflow. This workflow defines the complete set of processes so that we can automate every requirement."

"It's low code/no code which makes it very easy to work with."

"UiPath has improved our organization by its ease of use, practical solutions to complex problems, and flexible working environment."

More UiPath Platform pros

Cons

"The approval process needs improvement."

"There is an issue with the object cloning in Excel. OCR is also not that stable. Image recognition works fine, but not all the time."

"It is negative right now. What we are expecting, for one bot creation, is a six-month turnaround for getting ROI, but that is only the developer man-hour versus actual time saved."

"I feel the tool has to provide deeper insights for debugging issues, considering both internal and external factors."

"If you were to come to me and ask for an OCR to be done, I could only guarantee you about eighty percent accuracy."

"The only reason I wouldn't rate it higher is because a COE Manager still not getting the full benefit from it and because the premium is a little bit expensive."

"Automation Anywhere is expensive. They should consider lowering the price to make Automation Anywhere more affordable to SMEs, which comprise a huge segment."

"We experienced continuous bot disconnections in our environment."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"The machine learning needs to be improved so that they perform better in terms of predictive analysis and sentiment analysis."

"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 tool must execute remedial actions to resolve problems before they cause significant incidents."

"It would be ideal if the solution offered more language options, such as Arabic."

"Overall the support and customer support areas need to be improved."

"The image processing capabilities definitely need to be improved."

"The user experience could be made a little better with this solution. I find it difficult to find qualified people to be able to use the solution."

"The discovery suite that they just acquired could be included."

More BotFarm cons

"What I'd like to see is more tutorial videos on YouTube. Maybe they could have a YouTube channel, and the community could empower more content creators to make how-to videos. When clients call us with issues, we wouldn't have to explain."

"Its deployment is easy but there is a learning curve in the beginning. Its onboarding isn't easy, and there is no onboarding guidance. They need to take more care of the onboarding guidance and improve it. It is user-friendly for me and for most people, but for people who have zero programming knowledge, it is hard. They have to turn to the community and other places for knowledge."

"So far, I see general areas where UiPath Platform excels, but I believe improvements could be made especially regarding IXP and the ability to integrate your own models securely."

"There could be room for improvement in the ticketing feature."

"UiPath could gain a lot more customers if they lowered the price a little and improved the license model with some more affordable tiers."

"UiPath is good in a lot of areas, but as an end user, I feel one thing that can be improved is UiPath Studio. It is an application that we can download to our system and then start building the use cases that we want. Sometimes, it takes a little bit of time to launch, and when we are building a complex application involving a lot of sequential flows, it tends to lag a bit."

"The setting up of the cloud was a little bit confusing for us. We expected someone to walk us through that process and we just did it ourselves and weren't sure if we were doing it right."

"It would be helpful if UiPath could provide developers to help us with the on-premises setup. Without that, we have to figure out how we do the setup."

More UiPath Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When you compare the cost of Automation Anywhere with UiPath and Blue Prism, those others are much less. Licensing-wise, UiPath wins the deal."

"It is cost-efficient in terms of licensing. I found their support good when I was working for the airline client. However, I hear from my managers here that the support price for Tier 3 or premium is a little higher. That is why we are not going for Automation Anywhere. Its price was okay for our client, but for us, it seems expensive."

"It's an ideal pricing model to customize the components based on everyone's needs."

"Costs savings have been seen by employing bots for multiple shifts instead of people."

"The cost can be reduced a little for users."

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

"Roughly, as of today, it is around $250,000 annually."

"The cost is affordable, which makes an easy barrier to entry for the RPA market."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"Pricing for this solution can be better."

"I am very happy with the pricing."

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

"The license of this solution is on an annual basis. The price is fair. However, what we did initially was a POC, but now we are looking at moving from a POC to expanding it out further. I would appreciate some kind of discount."

"The licensing is on a monthly basis."

"The pricing model could be simplified."

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

"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."

More BotFarm pricing and cost advice

"The pricing is competitive, and for large-scale use cases, UiPath may make better sense cost-wise. However, it is not very viable for small-scale use cases. Power Automate is much cheaper and has similar functionalities. UiPath offers two options. If you choose the on-premises option, then you would have to manage it yourself, but if you go for the fully managed one, then there won't be any overhead cost. We are gradually moving to Power Automate and Power Apps because we are already on the Microsoft stack, and it helps us reduce the footprint. If the cost of UiPath were comparable to that of Power Automate, then UiPath would have been the better alternative."

"The licensing fees for this solution are approximately $100,000 USD annually."

"Different licenses are used to activate features that the organization wants to use. For example, they offer licenses for UiPath Studio X, attended automation, unattended automation, document understanding, and so forth."

"UiPath is more cost-effective than any other tool."

"We analyzed and compared the costs of RPA from different vendors and we found that UiPath was the most cost-effective in the long term. An unattended robot costs approximately $8,500 annually."

"UiPath is on the higher side compared to Microsoft Power Automate and Automation Anywhere."

"The product is very affordable, not costly at all."

"It is reasonable considering the benefits of automating the processes."
