Venkat Sivaprakash - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

With an easy initial setup phase in place, the tool needs to provide functionalities like web scraping to users
It is a very scalable solution. In ElectroNeek, you can build your project in modular programming or with the use of sub-programs. You can have a lot of sub-programs that make up a whole project. If you don't wanna use the drag-and-drop activities, you can use JavaScript or Python instead. So it's very useful when you are working with things such as SPS. Actually, you can write scripts to support all the product functionalities with Python and manage the product's functions. You will find a company named Apollo Studios on the website of ElectroNeek. I think they are one of the best companies in South Africa that entered into a partnership with ElectroNeek.
Hugo Almeida - PeerSpot reviewer
Head of IT Automation at a tech services company with 11-50 employees
It lets us automate almost anything and is very easy to work with
It currently supports only on-premises deployments. They can include support for cloud deployments. It should provide us the ability to choose a robot for executing a workflow. We want to control which robot executes a certain workflow. Right now, it automatically chooses the robot that is going to execute our workflow. It should also provide the ability to get filters on the outputs of the steps. We have each workflow as a step, and each step has some output. We would like to have the functionality to execute some script or some logic on these outputs to format the tests directly on the variables.

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 a great tool."
"None of the commands are unique to Automation Anywhere, which allows beginners to leverage external knowledge."
"What I appreciate most about Automation Anywhere is the high degree of interoperability, and they have both on-premises and cloud versions, which allows us to ensure that we are properly following the protocols and ensuring seamless integration with our native systems."
"I like all of the features, especially the MetaBot, REST API, and SAP DLL."
"When it comes to financials, Automation Anywhere has done amazing work in ensuring not only the speed and accuracy of the bot, but also the compliance and error controls through which the bot executes the job at very high satisfaction and tolerance levels."
"I would recommend using this product; it is very useful, we can automate anything through it, there is much flexibility, and it provides a robust mechanism, which is good."
"I like all of the product features, but I mostly like to work with IQ Bots because they have cognitive automation capabilities."
"Our development time has been reduced because the solution is very user-friendly."
"We have found that it brings more efficiency and effectiveness to routine tasks."
"It's a very stable product."
"We find the OCR feature very valuable, due to the corrector recognition that it provides; this is very useful for document processing."
"The solution is user-friendly with a really good UI and ID."
"I would advise others to go for it and just implement it; it is a really good solution."
"The most valuable feature is the price."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"ElectroNeek was extremely easy to use, especially its UI was easy to navigate with limited training."
"It lets us automate almost anything, even with the legacy tools. It is very easy for us now to automate with legacy tools, which used to be difficult earlier. We work with a lot of other automation tools from Micro Focus, such as Operation Orchestration, but these tools can only connect to the API. So, there was a gap when we wanted to automate older and legacy tools that didn't have any API to connect to. We can now also automate without any changes in the customer environment. We don't need to change anything in the way that the customer environment works."
"It lets us automate almost anything, even with the legacy tools."
 

Cons

"We are having some challenges when it comes to stability."
"Sometimes I get challenges with the customer support team; when I contact them, they are sometimes busy, and I get delays in replies."
"I have found that Automation Anywhere is prone to bugs in handling Excel. It breaks and gives vague error messages. I have had a lot of experience with that and learned that it is better to write a Python script instead of using Automation Anywhere's package when dealing with Excel because it is buggy and tends to break, unfortunately."
"However, when it comes to the agentic capabilities, there is still a gap where I need to figure out how the token consumption is happening and how my agents are talking with other agents."
"On the document automation side, the document learning features are not as robust as one would expect them to be. When I am doing document automation and a document fails due to low confidence in populating a field, it requires manual correction."
"The product needs to catch up to the promise of known technology and apply more intelligent behaviors concerning AI or unstructured learning."
"We did face some issues last year when there was an upgrade in Automation Anywhere control room, and at that time our web application automations were failing."
"There is definitely some room for improvement there. It is sort of a hit and miss with their support engineers, you have some really good ones and some that aren't."
"It's not applicable to very large enterprises and for difficult work or more complex processes."
"The integrating capability of the product needs to be improved, to ensure that it works with all systems involved in a process."
"When I wanted to use web scraping for tables in web applications, I found through online forums that such functionality or activity is currently not working as it shows."
"Its price could definitely be lower."
"The solution works well with Google Chrome, but not with Microsoft Edge, which is the browser we use for automation."
"The solution needs to improve its stability."
"ElectroNeek comes with three activities and we cannot add activities like we can with uiPADs."
"I think that this solution could improve remote desktop interactions."
"It currently supports only on-premises deployments. They can include support for cloud deployments. It should provide us the ability to choose a robot for executing a workflow. We want to control which robot executes a certain workflow. Right now, it automatically chooses the robot that is going to execute our workflow. It should also provide the ability to get filters on the outputs of the steps. We have each workflow as a step, and each step has some output. We would like to have the functionality to execute some script or some logic on these outputs to format the tests directly on the variables."
"It currently supports only on-premises deployments. They can include support for cloud deployments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere is reasonably priced because it can sustain us for a long period."
"When you compare the cost of Automation Anywhere with UiPath and Blue Prism, those others are much less. Licensing-wise, UiPath wins the deal."
"I have heard that Automation Anywhere is expensive."
"It's cheapest among the competition, although bargaining is a must."
"We have a few licenses. They cost roughly $10,000 each."
"Automation Anywhere University is pretty good. They make it available free for everyone."
"The control room access gives the ability to create different roles, which helps when purchasing additional licensing."
"It is not cheap, but we are able to get an ROI."
"I give the price an eight out of ten."
"Its price could definitely be lower. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost to the standard licensing fees."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a seven."
"It's very affordable and the licensing is billed on a yearly basis."
"My company has made a payment towards the purchase of a license from ElectorNeek."
"I believe we had a Silver Membership or something similar annually."
"The pricing model is very straightforward. You can have a one-year or three-year subscription. You pay for each robot that you want to use simultaneously. If you want, you can install 50 robots and get 50 licenses. If you want to use only one robot at a time, you just need one license. For each license, you pay around 10% or 15% to support. You pay for the license, and you pay a small percentage of the cost of the license for support. This is their licensing model, which is very easy to understand."
