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.

Customizable, easy to manage using a single dashboard, but the features in my version are quite basic
Infraon Desk is very flexible in nature and can be customized for my needs. The fact that I can customize it the way I want is the best part of the tool for me. The customization took longer than I expected to complete, although it may be the team that I was interacting with. They might not have had enough manpower in place. If enough resources are available then the customization is easy. All of the information that I need for monitoring the entire platform is available on a single dashboard. This is very helpful with respect to managing. The multi-channel ticketing options that this solution provides are very important to us because it's all about how we engage with our customers and what options we offer for them to communicate with us. Nowadays, there are many collaborative platforms and many methods for ticket logging. Every system of this type should be flexible enough to provide a mobile app, at least for Android and iOS, and not be confined to using Windows alone. Similarly, self-service portals as well as integration with Slack, as this product has, are important options that many people use.

Clean chat interface has supported basic AI handoffs but now needs omnichannel and a free plan
LiveChat did not support omnichannel messaging or multi-channel inbox, and it was not offering any free plan. These limitations made me switch to another solution. I believe LiveChat should support at least a basic free plan so that potential customers can try out their features before paying for the full suite.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"With Automation Anywhere, it has become very easy for us to do invoice billing. It has saved us about 80% of the time."
"I would rate this solution a ten out of ten."
"Having no restriction for any single programming language is very useful."
"The most valuable feature is recording in the Control Room, as it allows me to chose what I want to have recorded, ensuring that I get the right thing on time."
"It frees individuals up from mundane tasks so they can concentrate on being more active and creative other things that they need to do."
"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 ease of use of the application is very smooth for us, and coming from a finance and business background, I did not have any challenges using the application."
"It has been really useful for traditional RPA, which remains our forte."
"Infraon Desk was the best choice for my budget, considering the features and customization that I wanted."
"Infraon Desk is very flexible in nature and can be customized for my needs. The fact that I can customize it the way I want is the best part of the tool for me."
"There are a few dashboards and they are helpful because, in our organization, we have different groups of people who need different kinds of dashboards... as head of network operations, I need a top-level view. I want to see how many calls are open and how many calls are pending, on average, and some trend analysis. Whereas a manager in my team might like to see slightly more detail."
"It is meeting our requirements and we are very happy and satisfied with the services of Infraon Desk."
"It truly does what I need it to do and anything else I would say, I would be making it up."
"I majorly love the ticket and knowledge base features, which allow us to save automated answers to the most popular customer queries."
"Customer Service: Top notch! The support team is available all the time and have been able to solve all our questions instantly."
"In my experience, the best features LiveChat offers include a clean interface, robust analytics, and the ability to provide human-to-human website chat."
"We can attribute most of our high ticket sales to this software."
"The best feature of LiveChat in my evaluation is the AI chatbot module that I prefer most."
"Since we started to use LC we managed to increase our customer satisfaction level, increase sales and most important thing to speed up our interaction with our customers because it's all in real time."
"Through the capabilities of LiveChat we are able to fully customise each live chat implementation to suit the goals of our clients."
 

Cons

"They sell every different functionality in too many separate packages, making the procurement process complicated as it requires paying additional licensing for more features."
"The main disadvantage of Automation Anywhere is its high cost."
"The basic features are acceptable, but advanced tools often require deeper technical expertise, which can slow adoption. Additionally, some users experience delays in customer support for complex issues."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved by addressing the server issues we occasionally encounter when running the bot on the runner."
"One area where I think there's an opportunity to do things a lot better is in the analytics function. They do have a concept or product called Bot Insights. It hasn't worked for us. It isn't as plug and play as we were led to believe, which is unfortunate. I can absolutely understand the value, and the demonstrations that I've seen of Bot Insights are sensational. But, we just haven't been able to make it work. We've invested a lot of time and effort trying to make it work to no avail."
"We had several issues when trying to connect the different components, due to our firewalls. They were eventually solved by our internal IT and the AA technical team."
"Improving on the ease of use and user experience of Automation Anywhere (AA) could help."
"Overall, I am pretty satisfied with Automation Anywhere. The UI is pretty straightforward. However, the customer service could be improved."
"The reporting is okay, but it doesn't give you reports that make you say "wow," like you might see from a tool like MRTG or PRTG whose reports give you a good feeling. The detailing is not there in the Infraon Desk reports and there are no graphical elements in them. The reporting is slightly weak and needs to be improved."
"The version that I am using is very basic and I wouldn't say that it has extraordinary services capabilities that I've never seen before."
"Better connectivity and integration with more collaborative platforms would be helpful."
"There have been times where Live Chat's servers have had DDOS attacks and have made communication difficult."
"LiveChat did not support omnichannel messaging or multi-channel inbox, and it was not offering any free plan."
"The service needs to be more popular than it currently is."
"I'd like to be able to create teams and filter the reports by team, in addition to the ability to currently filter by group, date, agent, tag etc."
"The biggest friction point I have experienced with LiveChat so far is the lack of a free plan."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is one of the most affordable RPA solutions, and as for licensing, they offer a community edition that greatly helps anyone who aspires to learn about the product before buying the enterprise solution."
"Pricing is a bit high when compared to other available tools; however, the tool is worth the cost."
"I would rate the cost of Automation Anywhere as a six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
"It is not cheap, but we are able to get an ROI."
"Subscription for Automation Anywhere (AA) is paid yearly."
"We have a three-year contract with Automation Anywhere."
"The product’s pricing is reasonable."
"I don't know exactly what the pricing schemes are for the product as this type of negotiation is not my responsibility, but I think the basic pricing comes to $15,000."
"The price of this solution is reasonable and it was well within my budget."
"The pricing model is very competitive."
