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.

Significantly reduces manual effort and improves team workflows through automated ticketing
We've used Agent Builder, IXP, and Maestro for orchestration. We have created context-grounded searches or chatbots using context grounding, and we also use context grounding within an Agentic flow where a bot or agent reads ServiceNow tickets to determine whether it has been assigned to the right work group. If it has not been assigned correctly due to human error, it automatically reassigns it to the right group. I would assess Agentic AI's ability to extract data points as effective. We created an agent for the purpose of extracting data, though not in a document. We created what we call an email conversation agent that engages with a customer, vendor, or someone in an email conversation with a set goal of extracting specific data points for an action to be performed subsequently. The one automation we have deployed in production involves the agent interacting with team members to collect data points and create a ServiceNow ticket. We appreciate almost all features of UiPath Platform, with one of the most successful ones being the use of Coms Mining. Most of the new features related to AI have all been good, and we use Agentic. We have already created a few agents and have started to use Maestro for a few flows, though we are not yet there to orchestrate an end-to-end workflow. We have good ROI from the automations we have developed with UiPath Platform, which far exceeds the investment in the platform. It has saved us tens of thousands of hours in manual effort, making the team members happy to pursue other things of value.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"They've now included the code so we can add some additional code, and that's good."
"The solution helps with reducing operational costs, which can be reduced by up to 30% to 40% in savings in terms of operational cost."
"Since it has capabilities to integrate with third-party applications easily, it makes the life of an automation engineer very easy."
"Bots add a lot of productivity and value to our business, because a robot can work for 24/7. They work a lot better, as compared to a human being, specifically for tasks which are repetitive in nature."
"The most valuable thing about using this product is that we are able to use the time that we spent doing manual processing for other progressive purposes."
"The cloud implementation is easy, you do not have to install anything, and when we use it in the Automation Anywhere Cloud, it becomes even easier."
"Anywhere contributed to increased efficiency, reduced manual efforts, and notable time savings across various processes."
"A has a bouquet of features that can be used in our projects. We have utilized all the features in our existing projects. It may be task bots, meta bots, or IQ bots. The features in the AA bots may be object cloning or security features where the bots can be triggered only from the control room and will help clients to maintain their security concerns."
"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."
"We have seen pretty good accuracy."
"If accuracy and customer satisfaction are your goals, then you should go for this solution."
"HyperScience is good for structured and semi-structured document extraction and it's easy to learn."
"Has algorithms that can detect a document template even if the image has a lot of distortions."
"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."
"What I liked more about HyperScience was the quality of the OCR it is a lot better compared to Google."
"I like that compared to other tools, HyperScience works best with handwritten documents."
"Overall, the solution has saved costs for our clients, reduced human error, and allowed employees to focus their time on higher-value work, leading to greater satisfaction as they no longer have to stay late doing repetitive, heads-down tasks."
"There is a feature called Build a New App in UiPath. I found that to be very good. It makes our job much easier to know how to build applications. There is also the Studio module. I am from a non-technical background. So, for me, designing and creating applications was very tough initially, but with the Studio module and the activity tab that they have, it's easy. Most of it is just drag and drop. I found that very valuable."
"Instead of three different people taking a whole day, we did it in three minutes."
"For corporate tax accounting, we use UiPath to pull data from multiple sources (i.e. SAP, Vertex, etc), and then use multiple pivot tables in Excel."
"The most valuable aspect of UiPath is the fact that it's a low-code platform. Being able to use a low-code platform really lowers the barrier entry of introducing automation. Normally, you fill in a request to go to IT to get a development resource allocated, and then you spend six months trying to do a project. Because UiPath is a bit of a platform, you can quickly, within weeks, start to knock off automation and get it checked and then successfully deployed. The low-code development environment is key for us."
"Combined, we save over half a million hours annually in manual processing time, which is crucial as 2,000 hours saved equate to one full-time employee."
"Quick automation, easy reporting, component-driven design, agile customer support, UI-driven workflows, and easy integration capabilities make UiPath a powerful solution for automated customer onboarding in banking."
"UiPath Studio is the feature we use the most to build our automations, and Orchestrator enables us to stitch it all together and monitor bots."
 

Cons

"If you want to use Chrome then there are three or four additional steps that need to be completed."
"We are not getting consistent behavior from the tool We would like to see this improved and the product more stable."
"Sometimes, the files are getting corrupted and this causes us a lot of trouble."
"Our current version needs drag and drop, but that should be in the next release."
"Certain areas of the user interface require improvement."
"Attended automation sometimes might go into exceptions, thus we need to monitor it in-between, then check whether it is working properly. This way, we ensure the bot is working properly."
"The UI could be made better because the UI in Version 11 was better and easier as compared to a2019."
"Getting buy-in was a major challenge because of the various people not aware of the technologies moving and getting buy-in from top management is a challenge."
"HyperScience could improve the unstructured data extraction feature."
"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."
"One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle."
"HyperScience is a stable solution, but there are some improvements needed in terms of the language support and support of dictionaries."
"Extracting tables from certain documents could be improved."
"No solution is perfect and there are several different scenarios that could be improved in HyperScience. One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle. There is some issue with supporting the extraction from multiple tables involved on the same form. If this could improve, it would be a big benefit."
"The solution lacks support for a greater range of languages."
"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."
"Studio... only works on Windows. It doesn't work on other platforms. I'm a techie by background. I don't hate Windows but I don't love it. It comes with the limitation that it is completely dependent on Windows. I would have loved if it were available on Mac or Linux or Unix."
"We are doing automation to take care of all our processes, but we still need support people 24/7 to monitor these jobs. So, human intervention is still there. We have two people monitoring these automations 24/7 because there are still some challenges with the automation."
"There are a lot of solutions in UiPath where we have to know some programming languages. I'd like to cut some of that out, with features that perform those tasks without having to know programming languages. I work a lot with my team members who don't really know programming that well, and I have to walk them through how to do different coding things to effectively develop their RPA."
"It's way too expensive for small or mid-tier organisations."
"The pricing could be more friendly."
"The solution is expensive."
"Sometimes we get some disconnection issues. This happens maybe 10% of the time."
"The Form Builder for back-end robots needs to be a web portal instead of a full desktop application."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a three-year contract with Automation Anywhere."
"We're paying a monthly subscription fee for the bot and for services. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"My only suggestion in terms of pricing is very generic and that is to consider that as much as RPA saves cost and does automation, please get a realistic estimation done on whether you are really achieving any ROI over your investment with RPA."
"I am not responsible for the pricing part, but I know the pricing is competitive compared to other tools."
"They're very flexible around pricing and licensing."
"It is expensive. Automation Anywhere has reduced the price slightly, as we have grown. However, the price is still excessive enough that we are engaged in PoCs on other tools."
"The solution itself is free unless we want to add the support option but we have to pay for the bots we use."
"The pricing is a bit higher."
"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."
"UiPath is an expensive solution but it is worth the money. You have a lot of features."
"Before we procured the license, the pricing they quoted was too high. We continued to negotiate for almost a month. This is something they can improve from their side. If they had quoted the right price, we would not have had to negotiate. We got more than a 50% reduction in the price, which is bad on their part."
"Previously, we were not using automation operations. I believe we have now reduced costs significantly, which justifies the cost we are paying for the service."
"The cost of UiPath is much less than that of Blue Prism. They've been very flexible and willing to work with us with our new contractors we just signed on. It's worked out well."
"Currently our clients are looking for cost optimization post-pandemic and UiPath comes at a high price point."
"It is pricey at the beginning, but we'll have to see going forward what we get for the tools. It is always expensive to buy a really nice car and not drive it very far and very much. So, it is about utilization."
"It is based on the use case. If the use case needs several bots, it gets expensive."
"There are cheaper options than UiPath."
