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.

Enterprise Solutions & Services Head at Duroob Technology
A fairly stable solution that’s highly mature, but has a poor user interface
The solution does not align as modern service solutions do. Seamless integration is no available among the processes. Their service management application needs a lot of work. It’s in a really bad state right now. They brought on a new interface that clumped all the processes and features of the solution into one. Still, it’s not really compatible with other solutions. Because of this, its rating has dropped in Gardner. The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements. The product needs to implement a cloud platform solution, which is lacking so far. Their workflow engine is still segregated. It’s not embedded. If you need to do some workflow approvals, you cannot do them directly on the service desk. You have to go into Outlook and do an approval or you have to go in through another screen to handle the approval because the workflow engine they have is a separate product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its ease of deployment is the most valuable feature. We have found with many customers that it's quite easy to deploy."
"Since it can be utilized 24/7, the ROI is pretty high with minimal efforts and resources by using unattended automation."
"The RPA automation itself is valuable."
"The best features are the ease of use, the short learning curve, and the good support from our local partner."
"There are more valuable features with the updated solution; now they have both the list view and the flow view, they have increased some features in terms of data types, they now have good usage of the data table and have added variable types, and it's convenient."
"No review content was provided."
"An easy to deploy and learn automation tool that can save resources, effort and money."
"Automation Anywhere has been a boon for our organization because the tedious task that used to be hectic and made us remain seated for hours is now done with a single click."
"It is meeting our requirements and we are very happy and satisfied with the services of Infraon Desk."
"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."
"Infraon Desk was the best choice for my budget, considering the features and customization that I wanted."
"The solution is a highly mature product, and because of this, it can stand up to any other product on the market."
"CA Technologies support is excellent."
"Using the self-service functionalities we have been able to eliminate a lot of the support phone calls, and actually reduce a lot of our help desk staff."
"It's quite a complete entry into the SaaS ITSM market with a reasonable price point."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to easily create service catalogues for our customers, something that we didn't have previously with the other tool we were using, which was SDM."
"Essential service management solution all in one, like 100- for service request, 200- for change request, 300- for incidents, 400- for problems."
"It provides us with a very easy and flexible UI for CA Nimsoft Service Desk 7."
"The ability to add Additional Information Screens on the fly."
 

Cons

"The main problem that I have with Automation Anywhere is the support. When I have problems that I cannot solve by myself, it is hard to achieve a good result with support. Language is another issue."
"I have experienced the issues of UI getting stuck. There seems to be an issue with server stability. This is something that can be better."
"I could personally use automated testing, which we currently do not have in Automation Anywhere."
"A2019 should have more improvement for developers, as it was in v11.x."
"However, there is a problem that arises with accuracy in the newer version."
"I would like to see a technology where they can automatically update or upgrade themselves to the latest version, without having to uninstall the current bot."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The conversion time of invoices to JSON File should take less time using AA2019 IQBot, the report file creation feature should be added into IQ Bot A2019."
"Better connectivity and integration with more collaborative platforms would be helpful."
"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."
"It loses points because it’s not GUI enough, too code-y."
"Importing data with relations is difficult and could be better."
"The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements."
"Their service management application needs a lot of work."
"The deployment was very difficult to handle. It's an unnecessarily difficult process that requires third-party assistance to do correctly."
"This is not appropriate for a small or even a medium-sized business. Too much overhead for a small company."
"I think they could update some of the interface. It doesn't look as pretty as some of the other ones."
"When tickets are closed occasionally, it is quite hard to reopen it, which will cause lost-tickets."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The setup cost for this is onetime and licensing is based on your choice of product."
"The enterprise version is expensive for small businesses and individual users."
"Automation Anywhere is expensive, making it suitable only for enterprise organizations."
"This is a comprehensive automation offering with a scalable architecture and flexible pricing models."
"The price is very reasonable."
"Additional costs will be for the machines and the number of machines that you are using. You can deploy virtually as well as on physical machines. In both the situations, you do need to allocate a certain budget for securing the machines and where the software will be installed and running. The machines cannot be used for anything else, because only a certain bot can run at a certain time. You need to be very particular about your scheduling of running the bots, and while the bot is running nobody can use the machine. You cannot have an agent working on a machine and the bot running in the background. It has to be completely dedicated. Then there are the network bandwidth requirements and space requirements, which are additional costs apart from the licensing and software costs. The developer is also going to charge you for their coding time too."
"They are already coming out with a community license, which is really good. That's something that I wish to have."
"The pricing strategy for us is one license for development. It is more complicated than that depending on the options you choose."
"The price of this solution is reasonable and it was well within my budget."
"The pricing model is very competitive."
