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.

Manager - Technical Support at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Has helped streamline ticketing and change management while offering clear documentation support

Documentation and learning materials are available for Ivanti Neurons for ITSM, and if you check the vendor sites, you will find documents for each feature. I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited. If a user believes in Ivanti, they should also believe in all its products including Ivanti Neurons for ITSM and Neurons because they are genuinely putting in hard work. This is reflected in the documentation, though I suggest they work on creating more videos. Other than that, you will find everything you need in the community site and documentation site. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Ivanti Neurons for ITSM an 8 out of 10.

Senior Manager - Strategic Initiatives | Project Management | Reporting & Analytics at a hospitality company with 10,001+ employees

Scalable but interface can be improved

Basically, we use it for service management from the financial side of things I would say the simplicity of it. It's not very difficult and doesn't require strong technical skills to understand or implement. The interface can be improved. It can be made more interactive for self-service users.…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There are ready plugins and connectors to integrate with APIs for common systems like Oracle or Microsoft."

"One of the strengths of Automation Anywhere is its user-friendly interface, which makes it accessible even to those without a development background."

"The development of the company from Automation Anywhere V11 to a2019 was valuable. I found many important and new features, like changing the way we write code and programming. It became much easier and very flexible in version 2019A. It became very easy to use and the recording was also good. Excel became very good too."

"I love its reliability, ease of use, and the vast customer support that are always present to help us."

"The scalability of this solution is good compared to others."

"For people looking for my recommendation for an automation product, I definitely would recommend Automation Anywhere instead of going for a more orthodox or older technology."

"The marketing automation software provides easy workflow creation and management."

"Our workforce has limited capacity, and by adding this solution we can increase the amount of work coming in without adding to our workforce."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."

"Our First Call Close rate for the Service Desk was 70-80% once we got all the workflows and Notes and Question screens populated."

"It is easy to set up."

"The integrations are quite simple and clear."

"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."

"I like Cloud Neurons. Since it's a cloud version, it's much easier to enhance productivity because it collects all the information automatically."

"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies."

"What I appreciate about Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is its comprehensive change request management system, which we utilize for server patching, workstation patching, BIOS updates, and driver updates, enabling us to have CAB meetings to discuss changes and approve them before implementation."

More Ivanti Neurons for ITSM pros

"Ivanti offers us the flexibility to transform it from purely an internal IT tool to something we can use across multiple departments. There's now a queue of departments waiting to onboard and get their processes built. The flexibility within the workflow is excellent."

"Ivanti Service Desk gives all the functionality we need."

"The initial setup was quite simple; installing just took a few minutes."

"The most valuable features of the Ivanti Service Desk are service requests and incident management."

"Incident management is a valuable feature."

"The tool supports a lot of standard reporting KPIs."

"It is highly configurable with PinkVERIFY status."

"Incident management and service request management features are the most valuable."

More Ivanti Service Desk [EOL] pros

Cons

"What I don't like about Automation Anywhere is that its troubleshooting tools need to be improved because they usually take a long time to solve problems as they come up."

"Their bot runners could be made to handle multiple payloads at the same time because if I want to run multiple parallel operations, the number of bot runners that I have to buy just keeps increasing. It is adding to the cost. However, there is a possibility that we don't need that many bot runners, and we can run multiple operations in a bot runner. This would be a great addition to have."

"Our current version needs drag and drop, but that should be in the next release."

"Automation Anywhere's frequent updates are unnecessary and disruptive."

"There should be more available Data Analytics and more AI Front and Deep Learn concepts."

"I would like a couple more features where I can talk and the line comes up automatically. I can just put on a mic, like in "Ok Google". With "Ok Google", I can tell it to please open an Excel spreadsheet with the header read. If this is there, then I don't even need to sit on a computer, I can just dictate my commands and it will automatically come up."

"Automation tools have a lot of dependency on the environment, particularly on machines. Reducing this dependency could increase success."

"So far, the stability is not good. We are trying to improve this because we are facing a lot of instability issues."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."

"Because it is so new, the really valuable processes like Release, Availability, and Financial Management are just bare bones."

"Sometimes I can't get the reports that I want until I go to the manager. They need to put more into the new reports. The standard reports are great, but there do not communicate as much."

"Areas that have room for improvement with Ivanti Neurons for ITSM might include some of the reliability with Mac devices."

"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM's support model is not very strong. You should buy professional services. Its self-service portal and survey are extremely lacking. You cannot customize it, and it doesn't look very good. The solution does not have a strong community."

"The support that we're currently getting is just not there."

"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."

"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."

More Ivanti Neurons for ITSM cons

"I rated it a six out of 10 because it takes a lot to configure it."

"You have limited ability to customize how Ivanti renders. It's a fairly strict design that doesn't offer you much freedom to alter the rigid, two-column layout on the screen. You can choose between one column or two, but that's about it. The presentation is probably the biggest weakness."

"It's not professional support. When we have a problem, Ivanti should investigate."

"The administrative side of it could be a little more intuitive. This is the side that you use to do customizations. It is very customizable, but it could be a bit more intuitive and user-friendly. Their support can also be better in terms of response time. Currently, their response time is a little slow."

"The documentation for migration which includes migration from one version to another or cloud to on-premises is not available in detail. There is no proper planning on metadata updates. I am not able to do the data movement with the package push."

"When we need to implement changes, it usually takes two to three days to happen, making it a very time-consuming process."

"The mobile service is minimal and doesn't provide sufficient capabilities."

"Ivanti Service Desk could improve the GUI because it is not as good as other solutions, such as BMC or ServiceNow. If Ivanti Service Desk works on the GUI and makes it more user-friendly, and its content more attractive it might help the solution in the long run."

More Ivanti Service Desk [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Approximately, for a developer, it is around $750 for a license a year. For Bot Runners, it is about $550."

"It is the most economically friendly and it provides you with a lot of functions."

"We are a partner of Automation Anywhere and find the pricing to be reasonable."

"Automation Anywhere's pricing falls within the mid-range, but the long-term benefits outweigh the initial investment."

"Our licensing costs are setup on an annual basis."

"The current pricing for Automation Anywhere seems a little higher compared to competitors Power Automate or UiPath. Automation Anywhere is perceived as pricey due to the support model charges ranging from 20% to 30% based on the plans."

"The Community Edition is a good offering from the company."

"I feel the cost of licensing is very high for the A2019 version."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"If you want to add more users who can handle support there will be additional fees. What we call our extensions, we need to pay more for. They tell us that we need to acquire more licenses or something like that. I think it's very expensive, because in terms the pula, our local currency, it's about 20,000 per license for each user. It is an annual fee."

"I came to know from my team members that my company used to operate ServiceNow but shifted to Ivanti Neurons for ITSM due to its low licensing prices."

"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."

"The product is affordable for small businesses."
