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.

Supports long-running asynchronous processes effectively but has not evolved much in recent years

I think Camunda is focusing too much on the SaaS offering right now and not much on improving and developing the product itself. I did not see any innovations on that aspect, especially for the open-source version. I was making some tests recently and the tool seemed pretty much the same as it was three or four years ago. Since they made the move to cloud deployment in a more SaaS-oriented way, they do not invest too much in the community version. To be honest, it did not change much from the Activiti initial version. Activiti was pretty much what Camunda is today. They invested a lot on Zeebe and made it the engine for their SaaS cloud version. Camunda itself, the embedded engine, did not evolve too much. They could invest more on that.

Workflow orchestration has transformed AI delivery and creates clear, visible processes

Inngest handles orchestrating multi-step AI workflows effectively. The valuable aspect of this product is turning scattered background jobs into a visible workflow that can be planned, estimated, monitored, and discussed with engineering and client stakeholders. In our product, this matters because AI products often look simple at the interface level but contain many moving parts underneath. A user may only see a button or a chat response, but behind the scenes, they may encounter model calls, retrieval logic, state changes, data processing, and monitoring. Inngest helps to make the hidden layer more manageable. I value that Inngest supports repeatable patterns. Instead of inventing a new solution for each feature for client projects, we can use a more consistent approach that makes future work easier to scope and maintain. The best features Inngest offers include the ability to visualize the workflow, which allows for easy planning, estimation, and monitoring. Visualization aids greatly with planning and estimation in my projects, saving time and making communication with my team easier. As a delivery owner, I need to communicate with the team, and presenting to stakeholders is essential. Inngest has positively impacted my organization, allowing us to spend less engineering time on building orchestration patterns. Since using Inngest, I have noticed positive changes such as smoother processes and improved team collaboration. The best impact on my project and team is that it allows us to spend less engineering time on building orchestration patterns, resulting in fewer meetings and a clearer path for async AI features. This product reduces engineering efforts and shortens the delivery cycle. Everyone using Inngest, including myself, can feel the positive outcomes. Visibility is very important.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"With the help of Bot, it has increased the productivity of the current process and we do not need to spend more time on error resolution and rectification."

"One of the most valuable features is object cloning, the ability to get into websites and do things faster."

"Because it reduced the time duration of our processes, our costs went down."

"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."

"One of the most valuable features is the error handler, as this command has helped me design bots that can handle multiple errors and exceptions."

"In finance, it has helped us deliver on productivity and provided us with FTE savings."

"It's really easy to use. We have a number of people at our firm who are now certified RPA developers that had no development background. They did that just by the online training in some cases. In some cases, it was the online training, as well as a three day class that we brought in-house and had taught."

"The biggest benefit of Automation Anywhere is that it makes our processes error-free. Accuracy is how you build efficiency within the system and increase productivity."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"One reason we selected Camunda or Cloud/DB is that it comes with the support of the BPMN notation, which helps to define processes in a standard manner. Another reason was that Camunda Cloud, as the name says, is designed for a new cloud era."

"The most valuable features are the management of internal processes, the ability to execute from design and the model for internal processes, the ability to make processes visible, and the ability to have information about the current state of each instance."

"The biggest difference between Camunda and Bonita might be that Camunda is simpler and more flexible for setting, though we are at the beginning and need to experiment."

"They keep on coming up with different features, which is helping us a lot."

"The integration with almost any language, product, and even human tasks, is valuable. It's very seamless to integrate into existing systems. It doesn't require you to rewrite a lot of your existing system. That's where it really stands out."

"One valuable feature of Camunda is that it's an open BPM, so it was easier for users and developers to work together to define the rules and define the process, given their BPM and standard architecture."

"Camunda's support for BPMN 2.0 is a great advantage because it allows us to have a common language to discuss technology and business in the same perspective."

"Camunda BPM allows us to have a BPM bot with our own UI, and that's what we liked most about Camunda."

More Camunda pros

"Inngest has positively impacted my organization, allowing us to spend less engineering time on building orchestration patterns, resulting in fewer meetings and a clearer path for async AI features."

Cons

"Technical support needs to be much faster. I also had the project delivery. I had six clients whom I looked after. Whenever we got stuck, it was all about sprinting. There was a two or three week sprint. Within that, if you just wait for two to three days, it doesn't make sense. The support needs to implode, because I was just talking to a customer now who came directly and asked us, "Can you give us a dedicated support team?" It's feedback from our customer that support takes too long."

"The IQ Bot could use improvement."

"The AI is very important, and they are starting to use AI. They could continue to develop it out."

"They want to get more accuracy in handwritten forms, which might take some time."

"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."

"Additionally, the user interface is quite outdated and could be more user-friendly. The licensing cost is also too high, which means many small-scale industries may not choose this product."

"PDF extraction and cognitive automation need improvement."

"When it comes to stability, complex bots always have issues."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"The initial set up could be simplified, it's complex."

"I do think that Camunda can try to do better when it comes to solving the complexities of all the products in its software stack."

"The user interface needs improvement. It should be more tailored to the end-user and offer a better user experience design over the user interface itself."

"The latency of API could be decreased."

"Lacking in forms visualization."

"It lacks some preset features and configurations which would make it more plug-and-play for customers."

"Stability-wise, Camunda is good, but sometimes task queries get very slow when we have a large number of tasks."

"Community support is basically what I'm looking for. Other than that, it is okay for now."

More Camunda cons

"An area for improvement for Inngest could be stronger product reporting, such as cost by client and AI feature."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an annual license to use the solution."

"Automation Anywhere has an advantage in terms of licensing. It is more cost-efficient compared to all other RPA platforms. It is a recommended solution when clients need a cost-efficient automation tool to perform unattended automation."

"We are a partner of Automation Anywhere and find the pricing to be reasonable."

"The cloud-based version comes at an increased cost, although our clients are happy with the new features and have not complained about the pricing."

"Currently, it stands as one of the more expensive RPA tools available."

"Automation Anywhere pricing and licensing are competitive compared to the other automation vendors."

"It is affordable for us."

"Yearly, our licensing costs are about $90,000 to $100,000. There will be additional licensing costs when we add more Bot Runners to our infrastructure."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"We are using the open-source version of this solution."

"Generally, the price could be better, as well as the licensing fees."

"We're using the open-source version for now."

"In Africa, the cost of deployment is an important factor to consider since it adds to the overall cost. This might be the only drawback to using it."

"We use a community version."

"Camunda is much cheaper."

"We have an annual subscription to this solution."

"I use the open-source free version."
