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.

Corporate Development Specialist at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Offers a user-friendly interface but lacks enterprise-level features

EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is not difficult to deploy and the process was fine. Concerning deployment time, it usually takes one or two days. It totally depends upon the number of use cases and the processes where we are implementing. It might take weeks as well, depending upon the process in which we are implementing.

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

"From the customer's perspective, the biggest benefits are automation of the security and monitoring systems."

"We are using all of the features and all are important and valuable but the automation and flexibility are the things which make the product work as a solution for us."

"RPA platform with a good accuracy rate, variable management, and OCR feature. It has a straightforward setup."

"We are able to satisfy our clients in ways that we did not think was possible."

"AI governance is very important in my company, and we are implementing it now."

"We work on SAP as well as many other internal platforms, and this solution can very easily be moved between them."

"The support team responds quickly."

"The customer engagement is really deep, and they work with the “gemba”. They work with operations very closely. I also believe they have a good product roadmap."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The tool follows a role-based working model to create things. It helps to track what others are doing with the system."

"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is more affordable than UiPath."

"The user interface is not complicated, even for new users. Two to three weeks is enough to get ahold of it."

"The feature I like the most is the ability to capture elements easily, especially when automating web-based applications. Additionally, I find the SAP connectors to be quite beneficial."

"The features of EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA that customers find most helpful include the easy understanding and good UI/UX."

"There are some typical features I like such as email automation, XL automation, some AI/ML capabilities that are evolving, but are not quite mature yet, and I like the website automation."

"AssistEdge made it so that the reps didn't need to maneuver through 10 or 20 different systems. We tied all that together in the background, so the reps had a shared UI, and everything else happened in the background without their knowledge. When they were retrieving data, it was done in the background through automation and pulling up to that generic UI layer"

"Good email automation and XL automation."

"The most valuable features are CR capabilities and logistics automation."

"For a healthcare organization where we have implemented UiPath Platform on revenue cycle management, we have seen invoice processing that was initially taking around 120 days to complete and get the revenue from insurance payers and providers due to documentation lag and missing details, and with Intelligent Document Processing and process automation, we could bring that down to 60 days, which has helped the customer manage their cash flow."

"A user interface for developers: You can develop something without being a programmer!"

"Attended Bots have been star cases as it totally removes dependencies of user literacy to know the application."

"The ease of use of Studio is valuable. In terms of features, Excel Application Scope, web automation suite of products, and screen scraping are the features I use the most."

"Each human takes forty hours to complete the task, whereas it takes the unattended bot between ten and fifteen minutes."

"The tool has improved our organization by reducing operational costs through process automation and cutting FTEs. We can do more regression testing for test automation, leading to better products. It's helped minimize our on-premises footprint to some extent and aided organizational restructuring."

"I am using it to help individuals, entrepreneurs and enterprises achieve the throughput, accuracy and additional capacity they require."

More UiPath Platform pros

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."

"Maybe not improved but I heard that the 2019 version is going to look more like UiPath, which is not ideal for a typical/classic developer."

"Some things that I do not see as of today are interactive chat or video interface. These are things that I will look for in future. I saw something like picture recognition, but something like a video or voice recognition is something that I'm looking for in the Automation Anywhere platform as an end user and even as a reseller."

"Also, the Master certification should be provided free of cost for partners."

"Integration with other platforms may prove to be very interesting for us and others."

"For people who don't have technical skills, Automation Anywhere may take time when it comes to browsing or loading time, and sometimes becomes very buggy with unwanted failures."

"More interactions with PDFs would be great for Automation Anywhere. The ability to use more legacy technology for object cloning, flash plugins, etc. A lot of their Excel commands could use some improvement."

"I haven't gone deep in the tool, but so far it looks good."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Lacks integration with third party tools."

"In my opinion, areas for improvement in this solution lie in handling documentation, especially when dealing with data from various layouts or formats like scanned PDFs. Currently, new features are emerging in other tools, like generative AI, that could enhance these aspects."

"The tool's alternatives work on drag-and-drop functionality without creating custom code. We don't have an in-built queue system and use RabbitMQ for it. The solution also doesn't have a framework."

"There should be more activities like extraction for reading or converting PDFs. There are fewer activities compared to other tools. There are no custom activities."

"AssistEdge isn't a simple tool like Blue Prism or other RPA solutions with configurable items that you can drag and drop. This involved a lot of hard coding, which posed two challenges. One, we did not have that skillset, so we depended on Infosys. Two, it's a beast to go back and update or make changes when things are hard coded because you can't just move those configurable items back around."

"We provide them with consulting and strategy advisory services, but we have never recommended any organization to use EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA."

"The solution could be improved if it provided integration with third party tools like Python, native integration, which is very important."

"For the documentation, I still see that UiPath Platform is not performing well with handwritten documents, and I would be very glad to see improvements in that area."

"The UI and processes sometimes freeze, so it would be good to see some improvement there. The system configuration and internet speed also have some impact on this."

"I think the setup cost is quite nominal, but the licensing might be on a higher side when compared to Automation Anywhere."

"Its deployment is easy but there is a learning curve in the beginning. Its onboarding isn't easy, and there is no onboarding guidance."

"We would like to see improvements in Studio such as syntax highlighting and documentation functionality for audit purposes."

"Debugging features need improvement maybe by providing a process and variable alteration abilities during the debug execution."

"UiPath could improve its services and account management."

"If we want to learn something new about UiPath, we sometimes cannot learn it directly from the UiPath Academy. We have to go and search on the web. It takes a few searches to find the solution. We do find it, but it takes time. UiPath should give the solution in one area."

More UiPath Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It costs up to $1,200 per license."

"I am using that Automation Anywhere Master Certification for version 11. Recently, this has been updated in Automation Anywhere University. Until this month, it's free to use. There are no charges. That's why I would like to complete it this month."

"The price is a little bit high but the support is good."

"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."

"AA comes at a more affordable price than the other tools."

"One of the things that will be good for the community will be to get the free version to download, which came out just a month ago called Community Edition. So, you can actually download it and try it for yourself."

"The price for Automation Anywhere is reasonable."

"The cost of Automation Anywhere is high in Turkey due to the weak economy."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is cheaper compared to other RPA tools."

"On a scale of one to ten, with ten being the most expensive, I would rate the price an eight out of ten."

"The pricing is competitive. I like the solution's pricing structure."

"Overall, I think that the pricing is reasonable and it is similar to competitors."

"Its price could be better. They should reduce its price. The insights module, process mining, document understanding, and other modules should come as one package because when you buy a module, it usually is not enough for a project, and then you have to buy another module. They might already have bundled these. I have not checked it recently."

"The solution is definitely expensive but is a powerful technology that we do not expect for free."

"The cost is nothing, it's peanuts, when you see the capabilities. When you're talking about one license supporting what was previously done by 14 people, what is $1,500, or whatever the licensing cost is for unattended bots?"

"The price of UiPath is a little bit high, although there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."

"From what I know, UiPath's licensing has a reasonable cost."
