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.

Gave a better output every time, reduced our touch time by 80%, and had a robust reporting mechanism to improve the process
We tested HyperScience on structured formats of the forms, and it worked really well. We tested it with semi-structured formats, and it worked well. We also tested creating a new form that does not have any format. HyperScience has less capability while working on unstructured forms. Unstructured forms are those where there is no standard structure and the information can be anywhere on the form. They need to develop this capability. Such a capability would make it a perfect system for processes like data entry, accounts tables, etc. Secondly, before putting the actual volume in the tool, I believe that we have to create a manual form every time. If the procedure of creating the forms can be shortened or automated, it would help. It would reduce the manual effort of creating a form every time you start working on it. There should be an automated form creation system that does not require any manual intervention. Whenever a new form comes, the system should be able to create a dummy form for that. That will help.

Robust document capture boosts efficiency and integration options
The best features include multiple channel capabilities such as fax, different file transfers, and paper scans. It can be integrated with multiple channels and can capture images, even from mobile devices integrating into OpenText Capture. Currently, it has introduced AI for data extraction and document processing. OpenText Capture's impact on automating document-intensive tasks such as accounts payables or loan processing is significant. It has the capability to capture table structures or multiple line items from images, including line items and final amounts for invoice processing. The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data. This product can be integrated into any point-of-sale system, Salesforce, SAP, or other environments, reducing manual data entry and related tasks. This feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption. The automation reduces human effort that would otherwise be required for classification and extraction tasks.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like Automation Anywhere's cloud-based nature. You don't need any on-prem infrastructure to host it."
"The technical support is something that I rely on if I have any queries or if I have to work on another alternate approach."
"My understanding is that the initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"It most benefitted us in converting daily routine tasks into automated processes at minimal cost with available infrastructure."
"It helps improve performance and helps companies save time and money."
"Our ROI has ranged from thousands to hundreds of thousands, depending on the type of process being automated."
"The MetaBots are by far the most effective system within AA. Due to the fact that no scripting is required and only the passing of variables or values to get a definite result. IQ Bot with the ABBY OCR is a powerful component to do multiple extractions in the shortest possible timeframe in comparison to human execution of similarly identified tasks or operations."
"In my day-to-day applications, I can integrate Automation Copilot easily as I can embed it within Workday, BambooHR, and Salesforce, allowing business users easy access to Automation Anywhere without logging into multiple applications, thus saving 85 to 90% of the time."
"It provides the best accuracy for handwritten forms, which is a struggle in the industry. You can take processes with a lot of manual work and streamline them through this tool."
"Having a tool like HyperScience which facilitates the process of converting digital copies of the scanned documents and provides us with the extracted data has helped us to facilitate further automation."
"One of the most valuable features of HyperScience is the user-training module. Whenever the extraction takes place, based on the way we have trained HyperScience, it would give us some success status or a certain confidence level. If the solution has processed something that it determined was not extracted correctly it will queue those items for manual review."
"For our use case, it provided a complete workflow, reduced our existing touch time by 80%, and from the point of view of technology, it is one of the leading platforms right now in the OCR world."
"I like that compared to other tools, HyperScience works best with handwritten documents."
"Has algorithms that can detect a document template even if the image has a lot of distortions."
"We have seen pretty good accuracy."
"If accuracy and customer satisfaction are your goals, then you should go for this solution."
"Being able to have accurate extraction is most valuable. It has machine learning and other tools to make the extraction more accurate."
"The enterprise and capturing feature of OpenText is its valuable feature. As we have integrated CRM with OpenText."
"It allows you to image capture, scan documents and use machine learning to automatically index and tie them."
"The solution is very powerful because it allows for custom scripting."
"OpenText Intelligent Capture is pretty good."
"We use it to capture documents coming through our product and mobile channels and make them available for our business to access and email. We use it to automate the email workflow in our applications, pull the documents, and email them to the users."
"It is a mature product and a leader in the industry."
"The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data, and this feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption."
 

Cons

"For me at the very beginning when I started working with that, the technical setup was extremely complicated and extremely problematic, and we spent half a year to really make the software work."
"One of the important drawbacks of Automation Anywhere is that it needs to be able to show the automated process as a single flowchart."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved with better documentation."
"The architecture and pro-code support for pro-code agents are areas that could use improvement, which they don't have currently."
"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."
"Automation Anywhere has to be integrated with machine learning and AI systems to read images and videos, then put the information into another format."
"There is room for improvement in the stability of this product."
"The version that I used (10.3) was not that stable. It easily crashed in-between processes."
"The solution is expensive."
"Extracting tables from certain documents could be improved."
"One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle."
"HyperScience has less capability while working on unstructured forms. Unstructured forms are those where there is no standard structure and the information can be anywhere on the form. They need to develop this capability."
"HyperScience could improve the unstructured data extraction feature."
"The product's usability could be better. The first pain point is that we're getting the output in a different format, and we were expecting a different timetable. The second point is that if you want better results, HyperScience says you have to configure a minimal PDF or a maximum of 400 PDFs. If you want results with 400 PDFs for what's written by these doctors, then you also configure the maximum of 400 templates for that. So, it's essentially a lack of support from HyperScience. In the next release, it would be better if failure scenarios were reduced. It would also help if they offered different formats, inputs or injections, and added different scenarios."
"The product's usability could be better."
"They could work on the price and make it a bit more reasonable."
"It can be more user-friendly, and it should also have more reporting capabilities. There are also a few other things that need improvement."
"I would say what most of the document management solutions are lacking is smartness to detect the duplicate storage of the documents."
"We are using it to improve the image and the documentation for the cases. And sometimes, some cases have more than fifteen different types. We use some tools as fixed standard analysis and provide information to support the different types to take some decisions and help in an automated process. We choose the case type and subtype DNS scanning documents from the data entry up."
"Its functionality is good, but it has to be made more accurate. If it is not customized and handheld properly, the recognition and captures won't be accurate."
"I have not seen any return on investment from OpenText Capture."
"If something is handwritten and attached to an email, it doesn't capture the information correctly."
"Knowledge of .NET is required to effectively use the solution or it can be complicated."
"The setup is medium complexity."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"We were required to purchase licenses and bot runners, which determined the permissible run times for the bots."
"Automation Anywhere's pricing falls within the mid-range, but the long-term benefits outweigh the initial investment."
"The product starts at $10,000 and then it's up to you regarding how much you can consume."
"More than 40 to 50 percent of the IT budget will be for the cost of automation projects in the coming years since these projects enhance operations add value."
"We have saved time and money using this solution."
"If you look at the capital expenditure, Automation Anywhere is number two to UiPath. But if you take a long-term view, on a scalable model of a large number of bots coming out, it slowly goes on to become the costliest tool. There is something they can do about that. The capital expenditure goes out right at the point of buying the tool. For Automation Anywhere, I would need to spend $20,000. UiPath can give me something for $6,000, while Blue Prism will come in at $300,000."
"Automation Anywhere is flexible in terms of costing and licensing."
"I think HyperScience is cheaper when compared to other tools. They also have a lifetime licensing option."
"I don't have any idea about the licensing costs, but I know that there was a per-page charge. They had different models of pricing. One of them was based on the minimum number of pages, and we had a fixed price. So, the price model depends on the volume that is coming through HyperScience."
"Some customers say the solution can get costly because it requires licenses or enterprise packages."
"OpenText is an expensive solution."
