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.

Experience great asset management with seamless local network integration and efficient reporting
It is quite difficult to tell how Lansweeper can be improved, but we have encountered some problems correctly identifying product versions. For example, Lansweeper can scan 7-Zip version 7.2, but when a new version 7.3 comes out, Lansweeper shows it as new software, requiring us to manually add this software to the whitelist or change it in reports; it should be counted as the previous version. There is no analytics from Lansweeper to understand that it is the same software but with a different version.

Comprehensive IT service processes have been supported but customization and support need improvement
All ITSM functionalities of SymphonyAI IT Service Management, including incident, problem, change, service request, and their out-of-the-box functionalities, are pretty good. SymphonyAI IT Service Management does not have too many integrations and does not have too many out-of-the-box integrations compared to other peers in the market. I think that is the only place where they lack. However, they did have a functionality where we could build our own integration, so we were using that. If they had any out-of-the-box capabilities for some of the common infrastructure tools, that would have been easier for us. The out-of-the-box functionalities were good, including AI. However, the moment we had to customize options, that becomes very difficult with SymphonyAI IT Service Management. As long as we were using out-of-the-box, it worked great.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution saves time when completing our pharmaceutical processes, which allows things to progress faster to the FDA."
"The ability to automate low decision, highly repetitive tasks and clear large backlogs of tasks that we could not do with our human staff."
"With this innovative tool's automation, it is very dynamic, easy to develop, and deliver results quickly."
"Using IQ Bot, we can extract more data out from the documents that are unstructured."
"Automation Anywhere has not only my organization but several customers as well, particularly the organizations from the automobile industry, benefitted in their vision to transform their business objective towards the path of digital transformation."
"One of the benefits my organization has seen from these features is productivity in two ways: I am able to save a lot of time because of the automation, I do not need manual intervention anymore as manual intervention has been cut down by ten to fifteen percent, and the productivity gains have been substantial."
"One of the most valuable features is the different possibilities it gives you to manipulate the interface screens that you're working with."
"The solution has helped us increase productivity."
"Its functionality is very solid. The best part about it is that, when you have issues in getting information back from nodes, it tells you what the issue is, and you can quickly go to the specific nodes and respond to or repair those. There is an agent option, but to me, as a small business, the preference is to avoid agents where possible because you probably don't have the staff to keep up with them all."
"Lansweeper is performing exceptionally; as soon as it detects something on the network, it immediately adds it to Lansweeper, and the connection between the endpoint and the server is doing a really good job."
"The use of Teams for EdgeScript agent and agentless scanning of devices within our network proves valuable."
"Lansweeper was hands down the best tool; it collects every last piece of information we wanted to know about our equipment and has strong reporting capabilities."
"The solution has an excellent health status feature and a user-friendly interface that contains all necessary information."
"The solution provides inventory information that is very important to our company."
"One valuable feature is the ability to monitor log-on times, providing insights into whether users are rebooting their machines as claimed. This is useful in scenarios where users may not be aware of the need to reboot for system optimization. Lansweeper helps verify such information by collecting log data. Another noteworthy feature is the capability to track CPU, memory, and network usage on workstations at intervals, say every thirty minutes. This allows me to assess the user's experience and validate their claims about resource consumption. For instance, if a user complains about high memory usage, Lansweeper enables me to verify the actual usage and address the issue accurately. This level of monitoring granularity is something I find particularly useful and haven't seen in many other tools."
"The solution is easy to deploy, easy to use, and scalable, whether for 1,000 devices or 1,000,000 devices."
"It was easy to access and fast. Our experience using it solely as a ticketing tool. We used fetch reports from the tool, particularly with regard to SLA tracking for our partners."
"SummitAI IT Management Suite's chat box feature has reduced our service discount, and because it's intelligent, the responses that go out to the users have improved, and the resolutions are much faster."
"The product has the best features for ITSM."
"All ITSM functionalities of SymphonyAI IT Service Management, including incident, problem, change, service request, and their out-of-the-box functionalities, are pretty good."
"It is a good tool to use."
"The most valuable feature is remote access. People are working from home, and we can take remote access through it."
 

Cons

"The areas for room for improvement are always going to be around experience, making it even easier to get engaged, and get started. Because lowering that threshold to get started is what enables an additional set of problems to be solved."
"It is not able to use OCR effectively and has limited usability."
"From the IQ Bot perspective, frankly speaking, they still have to improve a lot... My expectation from a straight, technical, architectural point of view was that I would be able to create my own algorithm and integrate it. But with IQ Bot, I am not able to integrate anything..."
"I would like to have the MetaBot screen name title dynamic instead of static."
"Automation Anywhere's UI is difficult. Its user interface can be improved."
"Over the time that I've worked with Automation Anywhere, I have experienced downtime, crashes, or performance issues."
"Initially, the implementation was tough."
"It is nice being able to develop and manage/schedule scripts from the same web browser interface, but there are times I wish that the bot developer screen was made more user friendly."
"Over the years, while we expanded from tracking around 5,000 to 6,000 computers, the licensing cost increased significantly, going from roughly $300 to about $2,500, which strained our budget as a non-profit healthcare organization."
"In Lansweeper, reporting has some glitches. Reporting needs to be more customized as per customer requirements."
"With Lansweeper, some areas can be improved, such as the interfaces and legacy user interface elements."
"In Vietnam, there's no Lansweeper office, making it difficult to find the right vendor to get the license."
"The support is an area that could improve. The support staff could be more knowledgeable."
"We're trying to use it for the help desk, but that's not exactly its strong suit."
"The feature to deploy software in endpoints needs to be improved."
"I don't have any complaints about it, and I've never really had any issues. It isn't wizard-driven or anything like that, but it doesn't need to be. For someone who is not familiar with system administration, it would be daunting. There would be a lot of info there. They wouldn't necessarily know what to do, but that's not its target audience. For its target audience, in particular, it doesn't need to change. It is really a good tool."
"SummitAI IT Management Suite's project management and operational management features could be improved."
"I would like them to add software inventory in the next release. We don't have that right now."
"There could be flexibility in terms of customization."
"Integration was a major limitation with SummitAI."
"Technical support takes too long for any issues to get resolved, and that created a lot of frustration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a free trial so that they can get an overview, and there are different licenses that are very affordable and can suit every business model."
"Its price is competitive with all other products in the market."
"The Community Edition is a good offering from the company."
"I find the license pricing to be competitive and reflective of the pricing models throughout the RPA space, and I believe there is a lot of value in continuing to maintain the free community edition platform."
"Time and monetary savings can range from 20 to 90 percent."
"If we talk about the automation RPA. it definitely has worked very well for us. I'm talking about giving good savings, about more than 180 FTE savings, after implementing more than 200 plus bots. It has worked well. As an organization, it has supported us very well, and also for our customers."
"We save 34,000 hours of time per year and have recouped up to $6000 in lost revenue."
"The price is a little bit high but the support is good."
"It actually costs some money in the long run because of the licensing model."
"Its cost is terrific. It has a great price and is cost-effective, and the license is free under a hundred nodes. I like the fact that it gets regular updates. Of course, it notifies you of the product and you can patch it and all that, but I like the fact that it is very affordable for the number of nodes. A company with three or four computers doesn't need it, but a company that has dozens or hundreds has to have some kind of governance. It can do everything such as Windows, Linux, and network devices, and the discovery is really intelligent. For example, you'd find smart devices, IOTs, and things like that. I'm very happy with it."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Lansweeper's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The Lansweeper's price has increased and is now on par with or even higher than competitors, it still offers significant value in the area of IT asset management."
"It is not high and it is fair according to the worth it offers."
"SummitAI IT Management Suite's pricing is a bit expensive."
"We have a regular license."
"The product's cost is average."
