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.

Automation has reduced large call centers and provides real-time outbound support for patients
Kore.ai is a low-code platform, and you do not necessarily have to be an expert in artificial intelligence or generative AI to use this platform. However, if you have that experience, it will be a valuable add-on. The main advantage is that it has almost every kind of plugin available to use, whether for live agents or if you want to use it as a call center. You have real-time capabilities and the most useful plugins available, with almost every kind of model available with configurations. We can configure the ML models and train them. The platform is very user-friendly with explanatory features and a great UI. One significant feature is the live testing platform with Kore.ai. When you are creating a workflow, you have an interactive, real-time testing platform that reflects every change you make. This makes it easy to debug errors or add new features. Additionally, Kore.ai has many different tools and platforms that cater to different needs, whether for a call center, normal workflow, or machine learning workflow, which is really useful. Because of Kore.ai, it was much easier than creating something manually. A low-code platform always helps, and when that platform has this much capability, it provides far more value than manual development. It was particularly helpful for our team that we could create a POC and get that project into production. Kore.ai helped our team build a generative AI outbound calling chatbot, and it truly helped our customers. If you have a hospital with a thousand employees in a call center, you might consider outsourcing. However, with Kore.ai's outbound calling capabilities, you can eliminate the outsourcing part. You do not need a thousand call center employees. You can accomplish this through automation with just one or two employees if people need to switch to agents. This represented a significant cost reduction.

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

"The initial deployment is not difficult at all for someone doing it for the first time."
"The IQ Bot is the most valuable feature and a significant market differentiator."
"Automation is going to become a new area we will certainly encourage a lot of people to pursue because of the lasting dividends it provides, including saving time and manpower."
"AA has vastly improved my organization in gathering more business, reducing human efforts, and optimizing client business."
"In some of our use cases, people were spending more than three hours per day just generating reports, and then we created an automation for this and it reduced the time to 30 minutes."
"It has improved the reliability of our monthly billing processes that, in the past, was dependent on manual, nine-to-five types of activities, and we can now schedule those activities, process 24 hours a day, and then we review exceptions."
"One of the things I appreciate the most about Automation Anywhere is that it's in the cloud, so when we are on-site on a project, we collect a lot of data, hand it to this bot, and it runs the function; by the time we reach our destination, whether we move from San Francisco to New York, it's equivalent to 20 people's work in six hours, utilizing quite a few attended or unattended bots."
"We are having a very good experience with this product."
"Kore.ai has positively impacted my organization by simplifying the process of responding to emails and streamlining the workflow, saving me considerable time."
"The best feature of Kore.ai is that it is a cost-saving tool because when we use IVR, we have to assign agents at the backend, but using Kore.ai, we can automate all of those functions."
"Kore.ai is outstanding compared to other AI agent platforms such as Copilot Studio due to the centralized nature and integration of different apps within a single platform."
"Compared to other tools, Kore.ai provides a well-organized chatbot experience that others do not offer."
"The positive impacts we have seen include expected reductions in average handle time, which is typically around 40 to 50 percent for any BFSI industry use case."
"Kore.ai has positively impacted my organization by being a big money saver because before having our chatbot, the use case was that every time some of our customers needed help, they used to call a number."
"Kore.ai has positively impacted my organization because we are implementors, and I would say that approximately 80% of our income comes from developed projects with Kore.ai."
"Kore.ai helps in operational efficiency and faster time-to-market, which is development velocity."
"Through the capabilities of LiveChat we are able to fully customise each live chat implementation to suit the goals of our clients."
"Customer Service: Top notch! The support team is available all the time and have been able to solve all our questions instantly."
"I majorly love the ticket and knowledge base features, which allow us to save automated answers to the most popular customer queries."
"The best feature of LiveChat in my evaluation is the AI chatbot module that I prefer most."
"In my experience, the best features LiveChat offers include a clean interface, robust analytics, and the ability to provide human-to-human website chat."
"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."
"It truly does what I need it to do and anything else I would say, I would be making it up."
"We can attribute most of our high ticket sales to this software."
 

Cons

"Having fewer connection instances would make it more secure, more simple to troubleshoot, and possibly more flexible with the type of applications in use."
"If I want to do something that is more purely business-related and is somewhat complex to write or is nuanced, I sometimes have trouble implementing that inside of the Automation Anywhere script. I feel limited at times with some of the looping and some of the branching and some of the ways to make procedure calls when I have a complex business issue."
"They should improve process discovery features."
"I am looking for artificial intelligence and machine learning. I hope that they introduce them in A2019."
"We are not getting consistent behavior from the tool We would like to see this improved and the product more stable."
"As a developer, I find Automation Anywhere's bot editor riddled with minor workflow issues that hinder productivity."
"The bot creation process is straightforward in some ways and complicated in others. You can get your initial stuff laid out really quick, but then putting in your exception handling is more time consuming."
"Bots get disconnected from control rooms sometimes without any reason and this takes up a lot of time."
"I rated Kore.ai an 8 out of 10 because additional features could be added to it."
"In my experience, Kore.ai is not stable."
"To improve Kore.ai, I suggest focusing on more agentic automation, such as offering MCP kind of features with an orchestration layer for use cases."
"I would suggest incorporating pre-recorded videos in the tutorials and enhancing the documentation area to make it more user-friendly."
"In support, the team is not the greatest, but it works."
"Kore.ai can be improved by enhancing their documentation, which is currently a bit disorganized."
"One thing I have learned is the unpredictability of LLMs and how buggy Kore.ai is as a software."
"This is a regret for me."
"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."
"The biggest friction point I have experienced with LiveChat so far is the lack of a free plan."
"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."
"There have been times where Live Chat's servers have had DDOS attacks and have made communication difficult."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Time and monetary savings can range from 20 to 90 percent."
"It is expensive. Automation Anywhere has reduced the price slightly, as we have grown. However, the price is still excessive enough that we are engaged in PoCs on other tools."
"We only deal in annual licenses. There are no pay-as-you-go licenses."
"I believe it is $10,000 for Bot Creator."
"Automation Anywhere offers a subscription-based licensing model for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid deployments."
"The price is very reasonable."
"The solution is costly and the licensing is very confusing."
"Automation Anywhere is flexible in terms of costing and licensing."
