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.

ITSM Manager at Stratpoint Global Outsourcing, Inc.

Simple to use and very easy to deploy

For the free version, the tool should improve the graphics as it is kind of old school. The graphics are very flat compared to Google Workspace and Office 365. If you are not concerned about aesthetics, it is a fine tool. It is a good tool if you are more focused on the functionality. There are some bugs in the tool because it has a lot of features. Correlating all of the features can sometimes cause the tool to fail. If you create a ticket and then link it to an asset, there can arise some issues, but with support, one can customize and fix the issues in the product. The cost of the tool is an area of concern since it is 19 Euros per agent for a month. If your help desk team is of ten people, then you can multiply 19 Euros by ten people. The updates will be automatic if you get the tool's cloud version, but for the free version, you need to learn how to manage or administer Linux, PHP, and Apache because you will be updating the system manually. The updates are available, but you need to ensure that you have a test environment first before you apply it to the production environment because sometimes the updates mess up the data. I need to have a test environment first before loading it, but aside from the system, you also need to update the OS, PHP, and the web server itself. A lot of administrative tasks are needed if it is the free version, but for the cloud, you just use the product.

Hemanthreddy Vakiti

Data engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

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

"Automation Anywhere offers better value and is more effective for organizations seeking cost-effective solutions."

"Bot Insights is the most valuable feature; we don't have to struggle with generating metrics around how the bots are performing, and this information coming out of Automation Anywhere is useful to us because of the way the metrics are generated, which inspires confidence in our customers."

"Many of our tasks are automated using AA and due to ease in handling, it becomes the first choice in terms of RPA tool."

"This solution saves time when completing our pharmaceutical processes, which allows things to progress faster to the FDA."

"The deployment is very easy."

"Since it has capabilities to integrate with third-party applications easily, it makes the life of an automation engineer very easy."

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

"In my case in particular, I come from a business background, not an IT background. So, it sort of speaks for itself that I was able to pickup its functionality and how it works. In the space of two years time, I've gone from a junior developer to a senior specialist. So, it really speaks for itself in terms of being user-friendly."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The product is user-friendly."

"The tool's most valuable features include UI, visualization, and data scraping."

"The best feature for me is the power of customization, allowing us to add extensions from each place of GLPI."

"The most valuable features of GLPI are asset management, asset tracking, asset reporting, and ticket management. We use it as a configuration management database (CMDB), which is very useful for impact assessment and change management. The license management feature is also beneficial because it is bundled with asset management. When an agent reports a certain set into the database, all the software running on that host or server is assessed, collected, and reported. This makes license management very useful. Since implementing GLPI, we've noticed that our IT operations are more stable. The tool allows us to manage changes in the environment more effectively by creating change requests for assets. GLPI supports our processes, allowing us to organize IT operations with custom forms and workflows, making it quite flexible. Although the deployment is still in progress, we see significant benefits in organizing our IT processes with this tool."

"GLPI helps with tracking device assets. For example, when I assign a laptop to an employee, the GLPI agent installed on the client device gathers detailed information about it."

"The most valuable features of GLPI are its ITSM capabilities, including ticketing, automatic tasks, plugins, and notification systems."

"The product is very easy to deploy."

"I can see a very good product strategy, we see enhancements or enhanced features in each of the releases, I see the roadmap is good and the technology underneath is also good."

"The product is extremely stable, with no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze, making it very reliable and not problematic at all."

"ServiceNow is an industry leader in multiple areas and provides an excellent ROI."

"The way it can integrate with other applications and be a central hub for anything we need to do, plus the fact that it's cloud based, is huge for us."

"ServiceNow has helped improve our organization by making it more efficient, freeing up 30% of our human resources that can be utilized on other tasks, and the solution has added value to the company."

"It's a pretty complete platform that you can basically create whatever you want."

"The main improvement is the integration of several business processes."

"The solution is easy to use, simple to make queries, flexible to configure, integrates well, and supports all of our companies needs."

More ServiceNow pros

Cons

"The document processing, OCR, needs to be more accurate. Sometimes, when you try it on documents, it keeps on failing and goes to a different queue. It needs to mature."

"It may sound a little funny or weird, but one thing that we are thinking is we have to go to various websites and pick up relevant data from various websites using the bot. That is something we have seen that none of the bots have been able to really do it because the back-end of those websites do not allow bots to scrap through all these websites and get the relevant data in one place. We would like to see how the bot companies would crack this idea. But, that's why I said, this look weird because of the legal reasons why this cannot be done. This is something that I am looking forward to."

"The object cloning that exists cannot capture 80 percent of the objects that we need it to capture."

"Some of the machine learning (ML) components are still in development. They deployed many of them, but they are doing some improvements on the machine learning part."

"For future prospects, this tool should 80 percent deal with neural networks, deep learning, and artificial intelligence and that has to be integrated a lot. As these are future skills, these integrations will help us take the tool to take to the next level."

"If you work with image recognition and custom objects, there are stability issues."

"The analytical dashboard in the Control Room could use some improvement."

"Having fewer connection instances would make it more secure, more simple to troubleshoot, and possibly more flexible with the type of applications in use."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"A stringent plugin management would benefit GLPI. You can extend GLPI with many plugins, but plugin development is handled by individuals worldwide. Since it's an open-source solution, plugins are developed independently, and you never know which plugin is compatible with your version of GLPI. I would suggest that the developers focus more on plugin management to ensure plugins are more consistent and compatible with most versions of GLPI. Currently, you always have to check if a plugin works with your GLPI install, which can be inconvenient."

"I've encountered some issues with GLPI. The official documentation on the GLPI website recommends using PHP version 8.3, but it used to recommend PHP version 8.2."

"The stability of Windows OS could be enhanced."

"One area for improvement is the occasional issues we encounter, which are not directly related to GLPI but are due to network providers. These include network errors like 502 and 504, indicating some failure in network communication with the server."

"The solution has occasional lags and glitches."

"The solution must be more flexible."

"For the free version, the tool should improve the graphics as it is kind of old school. The graphics are very flat compared to Google Workspace and Office 365."

"I would like to see a mobile version of ServiceNow."

"Before implementing this solution, you should have the ITSM model in place for change management requests. That is a prerequisite because you cannot perform tasks without it."

"It should enhance its offerings by providing the chance to obtain course certifications at an affordable fee."

"All the screens are similar. It's the same platform for everything and you need to familiarize yourself with it."

"Their debugging tool. Sometimes it's hard to debug some of the scripts because once Javascript fails, it doesn't really tell you why."

"The user interface could be much improved, and the developer tools and sets can be improved greatly, they are lacking."

"ServiceNow claims to help a lot, but once you sell the product, it's as if you're on your own."

"Their GUI could be updated."

More ServiceNow cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not cheap, with costs ranging between 700 to 800 dollars per month. While Power Automate is cheaper at 15 dollars per month, Automation Anywhere offers superior features, user-friendliness, and smoothness."

"It is the most economically friendly and it provides you with a lot of functions."

"Pricing is a bit high when compared to other available tools; however, the tool is worth the cost."

"Cost-wise, it is fine. A lot of medium businesses prefer Automation Anywhere. The development cost is also lower."

"I am not sure about the costs, but two Bot Runners and four Bot Creators may cost approximately 1CR."

"Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."

"Although the initial implementation cost of Automation Anywhere is relatively high compared to other options, its annual subscription cost is lower than UiPath's, which has the opposite pricing structure."

"It is reasonable and affordable. If you consider the tasks that we can get done using this, the pricing is reasonable and affordable."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"The solution's pricing is reasonable."

"I have used the tool's open-source version...GLPI Network Cloud is 19 Euros per month. It comes with one agent only, but if you use the IT asset management part, it is unlimited."

"It is an expensive platform."

"I would say it is moderately expensive, ranging from six to seven on a scale of ten."

"Initially, the licensing model ServiceNow came up with was very good. But now, from a licensing perspective, they are changing their model day by day. It is becoming a bit expensive for customers."

"It is fairly expensive."

"There is an annual subscription to use this solution."

"Isn't pricing always too much? We really do chafe at the ITIL licensing. ITOM is also pretty expensive."

"While the option exists to pay for a monthly license, we are dealing with large enterprises and these typically involve multi-year licenses of ten or five years, at a minimum."

"Some time ago it was expensive, but large companies have special contracts. It's enterprise prices, and we're talking about millions per year."
