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.

It's a good solution for those with limited coding experience
The visualization of the data pages could be improved. You have to a lot of tweaking to make the visualization stand out. It's basic, but there are a lot of options. So you really have to do a lot of customizing on that part. They could add some templates that are more attractive than the basic ones. It would be helpful if you could start with something that's already built rather than working on standard templates from scratch.

Structured workflows have improved SLA compliance and now support prioritized incident handling
I think the licensing and pricing of ServiceNow is quite expensive compared to other tools. For large organizations, it is acceptable, but specifically for small and medium organizations to track incidents or change requests, ServiceNow is quite expensive. Sometimes performance can be slow when workflows and integrations are configured for complex tasks. For advanced customizations or advanced features which we rarely use, the documentation is not up to standard. The documentation needs to be improved for advanced customization features. However, the platform is stable overall and the features are quite good. The user experience and performance concerns I mentioned are areas I want to be improved. When many workflows and interactions are configured, performance is slow. For the features it is providing, it is quite expensive. If these performance features are improved, we can easily pay that price and get the return on investment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Workflow automation has helped a lot with cost reduction, greater accuracy, and delivery speed."
"I have been using this solution for a while now, and I think that it is a very good platform."
"TestingAnywhere is a scriptless automation tool which is easy to learn and implement, with many effective features such as creating test cases using web recording, object recording, image recognition, Smart recording, or an editor."
"It has allowed us to generate additional revenue without having to hire additional people."
"The recorders are highly beneficial when automating web scraping or web automation tasks."
"The time savings from using Document Automation are substantial, as previously a team of about five to ten people managed specific processes end-to-end, such as processing fourteen thousand entries in a month, but after automation, that entire process is streamlined, saving us a lot of FTEs."
"We have a close relationship with our account manager and technical support. This relationship makes the difference."
"The graphical user interface (GUI) is very useful, since I don't know any coding languages."
"Caspio was user-friendly compared to other solutions, and as someone who doesn't know a lot about coding, I found it easy to create a web application on this platform."
"I think it's a very, very well architectured platform, and that's the strength of ServiceNow."
"The speed of being able to do stuff; once you know where to put your code, it's very fast to put it somewhere and have it running."
"ServiceNow has enabled us to rapidly deploy Application Managed Services for new clients, with the ability to configure, extend, and tailor our ITSM Platform to meet individual client needs."
"It is very user friendly, and I've enjoyed using the dashboard and user interface."
"We can keep track of incidences. There is a bucket where we keep all our information, and it enables communication between stakeholders. It helps us collaborate with each other."
"Now we have invested the time in the CMDB, we've invested the time in a portal and catalog items and now we're moving towards automation and things, and we're able to stay a lot more current a lot faster because ServiceNow is doing the work to keep the platform updated, whereas we can just continue to provide value that is specific to us and what we're trying to do."
"It acts as a one-stop shop for customers to be able to go in and create instant problem tickets if the incident is severity one or two."
"The development aspects within it are valuable, including incident, change, and problem, and it has given us one pane of glass to look at a lot of stuff, which has opened a lot of eyes to our IT department."
 

Cons

"We face issues with Excel file creation. I’m trying to create a file in Excel .xls, it is getting corrupted."
"Having some more pre-mapping and pre-setup analysis of what you're going to be doing with it would be helpful."
"Overall improvement is needed for non-technical users who face challenges with how to use it and how to perform more tasks."
"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."
"Though IQ Bot is the most powerful and effective cognitive OCR platform for data extraction in the market, still, there is a lot of scope for improvement as there are a lot of non-standard documents which do not give a high straight-through processing rate and accuracy."
"Automation tools have a lot of dependency on the environment, particularly on machines. Reducing this dependency could increase success."
"They could improve the environmental stabilizing issues. There are a lot of environmental issues when rolling over from one environment to another, higher environment. This is the one thing they definitely need to look into."
"Having better documentation that is more openly available would help. Often, it feels necessary to contact someone or search for documentation that is stored behind a login or in another location. It would be beneficial to have one centralized place for everything."
"The visualization of the data pages could be improved. You have to a lot of tweaking to make the visualization stand out. It's basic, but there are a lot of options. So you really have to do a lot of customizing on that part. They could add some templates that are more attractive than the basic ones. It would be helpful if you could start with something that's already built rather than working on standard templates from scratch."
"The visualization of the data pages could be improved. You have to do a lot of tweaking to make the visualization stand out."
"Their licensing cost is significant. The pricing is high."
"Time to respond from support could definitely be better, as the global support timing sometimes causes delays in interactions."
"There is a need to enhance ticket details visibility on the portal, such as displaying SLA information, which currently requires development effort."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved and given a better design."
"Like all other IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS subscription cloud providers, ServiceNow is constantly improving by building new capabilities to expand the breadth and depth of its offerings while increasing its activities with partners to build more capabilities."
"Calendar views - there are no nice calendar views and I think I'm just starting to learn about resource management but it would be nice for them to have the roadmaps so you can see an actual calendar view to see where, from a project, you are."
"In some cases stability is an issue."
"One thing I don't care for is the reporting and the way it functions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"No one is balking at the cost. They are market rates and will change, but no one is saying, "That is ridiculous or impossible." They are saying, "Show me the ROI and prove that the cost is accurate.""
"We have a three-year contract with Automation Anywhere."
"Approximately, for a developer, it is around $750 for a license a year. For Bot Runners, it is about $550."
"Including the AWS setup and everything per license, it costs us around $10,000 on an annual basis. I believe that is pretty reasonable considering the teams that we have."
"They have a ridiculously expensive bot licensing structure, especially for the Asian region."
"The initial setup and licensing fees are high, and although it saves costs in the long run, reaching the break-even point can take at least six months."
"It's very good in terms of cost and pricing."
"We save 34,000 hours of time per year and have recouped up to $6000 in lost revenue."
Information not available
"The solution is expensive."
"It's sold as a less expensive solution, but it has to be highly modified. That's where you get into the cost."
"ServiceNow is a leader and its pricing is quite good, quite competitive... Sometimes some plugins are not priced reasonably but, generally, the platform itself, its modules, are priced reasonably."
"I know that it's not too bad because people continue to use it and they are happy to renew up their contract."
"It is fairly expensive."
"ServiceNow tends to be a little bit more expensive as compared to BMC Helix ITSM."
"Certainly, from a product-platform perspective, the price is not too bad."
"I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten. The pricing for ServiceNow is based on a SaaS platform with annual contracts. However, it may not offer much flexibility for adjusting usage in the short term."
