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.

A user-friendly solution that has a good user interface, but its technical support is not good enough

Around 20 to 25 staff members are needed to deploy and maintain the solution, including two managers, one architect, and other implementers. IBM Tivoli Asset Management for IT does not adopt the latest technology. The solution can be integrated with our existing IT environment through some web services and connectors. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Mahmudul Hoque Khan

Lead Engineer at intelQong Technology

Automation has reduced repetitive endpoint maintenance and keeps our educational devices compliant

Every software has some drawbacks and cons. For Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management, I think the first improvement I would suggest is to simplify initial configuration. The process to make endpoint enrollment, device grouping, and configuration easier, particularly for organizations managing different categories of devices, would be helpful. If the initial configuration is simplified, better workflows for shared computers, labs, faculty workstations, and administrative devices would make it easier to apply different software and security policies without duplicating configuration. For my work, I would suggest one improvement that would make my experience with Ivanti smoother than before. I would want Ivanti to clearly explain the root cause when something fails, such as when a patch deployment or automated remediation fails. It shows the error code, but when we are doing a lot of work, it kind of makes a lot of hassle to read the documentation or ask an AI what kind of error it is facing. My recommendation here is to show the issue, show the full explanation of how it is working, where it failed, and show whether the issue can be safely resolved automatically without needing a third party. I think it needs a lot of improvement. First of all, centralized management and scalability can be improved, particularly the ability to manage endpoint configuration, which would be more helpful for my field of work. Regarding scalability, centralized deployment and policy enforcement can help maintain consistency across larger device fleets without configuring every endpoint individually. I think another improvement would be detailed failure diagnostics, flexible maintenance scheduling, controlled policy rollouts, and clearer reporting on whether the fix will cause any issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Within less time than it used to take, we can automate a complete Apex task."

"In the age of agentic AI, it's allowing us to imagine what comes next."

"It has the ability to tag different components within the automation. We built it to track the ROI and stability of the product."

"By using SNMP configurations and Excel, I was able to read the mail. I used this functionality to categorize the fabric, then I used this information to correlate the value to Jira along with Excel."

"The valuable features that I see for automation with enterprise RPA are IQ Bot and Bot Insights. If you do anything, Bot Insight will provide the dashboard. It starts from the developer with artificial intelligence and the dashboard, which will provide the visibility of business-level metrics as well as operational-level metrics. Those are the good things I see in automation."

"Courses on Automation Anywhere University are very easy to learn."

"Automation Anywhere lets us do that, as users can develop the bots by themselves."

"I like the OCR feature, where we can capture information from PDFs."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"IBM Tivoli Asset Management for IT is a user-friendly solution that has a good user interface."

"The remote device management feature has helped our remote work strategy because manual intervention is not needed, allowing us to have real-time insights, policy enforcement, and strong security with patch management."

"Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management is a great tool for managing our team and company assets."

"From the reporting we receive, we perform patching updates every week with no tickets or complaints from users saying they dislike it or their computers were abruptly restarted."

"MobileIron UEM is a scalable solution."

"The products are quite good when they are operational."

"I like the product's Peer to Peer patching feature."

"The security issue we had a few months ago really shows how Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management improved things for us; it saved hours and hours of work and hours of research, and we were able to comply with some of the things that the security company was asking us to do within hours, which I believe would have taken us days, maybe even weeks, depending on where the devices were."

"The technical support from Ivanti is good."

More Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management pros

Cons

"The product's technical support could use improvement."

"Automation Anywhere could improve by incorporating better integration with DevOps."

"We have used the technical support. I am quite unhappy with the support part."

"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."

"They do not include the basic functionality of column headers in Excel worksheets. This is missing, and we need it."

"If there were one thing I could ask for it would be a text-based language. Right now it's proprietary, so you always have to go through the tool, even for things like basic compares."

"Had we had access to the RPA bots in advance, we would have practiced before fully implementing."

"AI would enable improved automation and faster training times that would be reduced from one month to one week."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"The solution’s initial setup is complex and technical support is not good enough."

"I would also like to see more integrations, plugins, and user-friendly automation, similar to the multiple integration scripts that Rapid7 has."

"Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management has not positively impacted my organization; we have unfortunately struggled with it for the past several years and we have continued to struggle with the platform even with trying to get help from the Ivanti side."

"Ivanti Patch could be improved with better integration with other cloud solutions."

"I tried to be a partner of Ivanti and, from this vantage point, the quotes are, perhaps, a bit high."

"I noticed one thing when comparing Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management with other software in the market, such as Cherwell, where we can see the rating of the person. In Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management, I feel the individual ratings and feedback feature is missing."

"I also found the UI to be quite complicated to work with, so it takes quite a bit of time to train any new staff and to get them to understand how the solution works."

"The biggest problem that I have with technical support is that it is not regional and we are dealing with time differences."

"It was not an easy initial setup for us. It was a bit difficult and not really straightforward."

More Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere is cheaper than UiPath and Blue Prism. From a market point of view, Automation Anywhere is reasonable. Any organization can adopt Automation Anywhere."

"Including the AWS setup and everything per license, it costs us around $10,000 on an annual basis. I believe that is pretty reasonable considering the teams that we have."

"We have reduced our headcount, approximately 200 to 300 employees, by eliminating manual, repetitive work. It provides profit to the business."

"Automation Anywhere's pricing is significantly higher than other RPA solutions."

"Automation Anywhere's price is considerably better than UiPath's."

"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."

"We have saved a lot of money on taxes based on the stuff that we run."

"I don't deal have cost specifics but I can say it is a tool that provides value for the money."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"IBM Tivoli Asset Management for IT is an expensive solution."

"While the price is a bit high, it may be equitable with the features one gets with the product, such as that involving the interface."

"The solution is expensive compared to other products."

"The price of MobileIron UEM is very good."

"My impression is that MobileIron is very expensive."

"For the one that works with SCCM, it is relatively inexpensive at $8 USD per node, yearly. The standalone product has two versions; the one that patches servers is about $45 USD annually and the version that patches workstations is about half that price at $22 USD."

"The license can get expensive if you have a lot of nodes."

"The solution is affordable."
