Featured Reviews

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.

Provides limited scalability, and systems do not synchronize properly

I use the platform to track IT assets, including who they belong to and their current status I do not find the product beneficial. It has ongoing issues and does not meet my expectations. The two systems within Asset Manager do not synchronize properly. Queries fail to retrieve the correct…

Hemanthreddy Vakiti

Junior Data engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Structured workflows have improved SLA compliance and now support prioritized incident handling

I think the licensing and pricing of ServiceNow is quite expensive compared to other tools. For large organizations, it is acceptable, but specifically for small and medium organizations to track incidents or change requests, ServiceNow is quite expensive. Sometimes performance can be slow when workflows and integrations are configured for complex tasks. For advanced customizations or advanced features which we rarely use, the documentation is not up to standard. The documentation needs to be improved for advanced customization features. However, the platform is stable overall and the features are quite good. The user experience and performance concerns I mentioned are areas I want to be improved. When many workflows and interactions are configured, performance is slow. For the features it is providing, it is quite expensive. If these performance features are improved, we can easily pay that price and get the return on investment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Easy to access: Without the need to download and install software on a local machine, we can access the RPA application from virtually anywhere."

"We're finding time savings as a benefit. One example would be a customer service rep who might get a question about an order, and it's usually through email. It can take a good three to seven business days to answer a customer's question about their order. When we automate it, it takes hours, if not minutes."

"The most valuable feature is the user-friendly interface."

"As we were closing our fiscal year, we had this huge backlog that we needed to clean up. The business was preparing to hire 12 people to do that, and even though they were not sure they could handle it, we built the process to extract and do the entire process just in two weeks. We were able with a single person to clean the entire backlog, which gave us huge benefits."

"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."

"A cloud deployment typically takes no more than one business day."

"For us, the features of Automation Anywhere help us scale our automations and standardize our processes."

"The customer engagement is really deep, and they work with the “gemba”. They work with operations very closely. I also believe they have a good product roadmap."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The product's stability in terms of uptime is generally good; it is always operational."

"The solution is easy to setup."

"I have seen ROI from ServiceNow, as the client I mentioned earlier is achieving ROI for adopting this cloud-based technology."

"It's easy to integrate. For instance, yesterday we closed the integration with SAP for the IP business management module to manage the forecast of projects. We created an interface between ServiceNow and SAP to control projects for accounting and on the forecast of the project. It was really easy. We don't have any problems with ServiceNow at the moment. As a company, they are improving constantly."

"The Workflow feature is the most valuable."

"It is quite flexible as a system and is very visual."

"Other perks include the Visual Task Boards and the Virtual Agent."

"The impact of ServiceNow's self-service portal on IT staff dependency levels has shown a dramatic improvement."

"I would rate ServiceNow nine out of ten."

"Easy to integrate with third-party applications."

More ServiceNow pros

Cons

"I really appreciate the user interface of Automation Anywhere, but I would like to see some improvement on some of the automation around screen processing. This includes adding some artificial intelligence on the way that bots actually can read the screen and know when things change and be able to adapt to those changes."

"We have our limitations. We can run only VBScripts and one more thing. If we want to run Python scripts or batch files, we cannot do it. So, if they would add these extra things in there then that would be beneficial."

"Automation Anywhere should improve its OCR command, as it's my observation that I have faced data loss or improper data being extracted."

"From an ease of use point of view, on a scale of one to ten with ten being really easy, I would rate the tool a six."

"The main request I have for Automation Anywhere is to focus more on technical demonstrations."

"We did face some issues last year when there was an upgrade in Automation Anywhere control room, and at that time our web application automations were failing."

"The product should improve on Voice Recognition and IoT pretty soon, as this is the next big thing in and I would like to see this upgraded in the next release."

"The scheduling is a little difficult at times."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"The synchronization between the ITAM and Neurons should be restored."

"Queries fail to retrieve the correct information, and the discovery tool does not accurately reflect the details of devices."

"It should enhance its offerings by providing the chance to obtain course certifications at an affordable fee."

"We are struggling with the scheduling part, but it doesn't necessarily mean that it is a ServiceNow issue. It could be the way we have configured it. We don't have it configured in a way where you can schedule a support call with our end users. We are looking for more automation in the box and the chat feature."

"Their cloud management is also not that great compared to other products."

"Complexities in the organization made the initial deployment complex."

"Scalability is good on the production side. It could be better performance on some of our lower environments, notably UAT for our global support estate."

"Probably the backlog organization could be a little bit easier in terms of transversality between different squads."

"From what I heard we've had contractors who've come in who've worked on other people's incidences, and they say our incidence is the buggiest of all the other incidences they've dealt with."

"Some of the issues that my team has run into are that something one day works completely fine, the next day it does not."

More ServiceNow cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere is expensive, making it more suitable for enterprise organizations."

"In terms of monetary savings, we automated a bot in three days that has saved us $30,000 in costs."

"Our company is investing a lot of money in Automation Anywhere. They have saved money wherever humans are working. They invest a lot of money in FTEs and other logistics, so the money saving is very pretty good with Automation Anywhere. While I don't know the exact figure, the tool is saving us millions of dollars as well as saving about 40,000 hours in the last year."

"AA comes at a more affordable price than the other tools."

"Our annual licensing costs for the entire company are $100,000."

"Automation Anywhere is flexible in terms of costing and licensing."

"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."

"The enterprise version is expensive for small businesses and individual users."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"The solution is reasonably priced."

"ServiceNow's pricing is comparatively higher than Helix's."

"The CapEx version is great."

"ServiceNow tends to be a little bit more expensive as compared to BMC Helix ITSM."

"I have found the solution very expensive."

"ServiceNow pricing is an art, not a science. The deal depends on how commercially savvy you are, which does make it something that is quite difficult to get right. It is most definitely an opportunity area for ServiceNow to improve and have more visibility around pricing of the different products within the platform."

"For the modules we use, we found it competitive. I can't think of any costs in addition to the licensing fees."

"While the option exists to pay for a monthly license, we are dealing with large enterprises and these typically involve multi-year licenses of ten or five years, at a minimum."

"Some time ago it was expensive, but large companies have special contracts. It's enterprise prices, and we're talking about millions per year."
