Venkat Sivaprakash - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Frees up employee time but can't run when computer system is locked
Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks. It would be better if, when we have scheduled a scenario, it would log into the system automatically.

Senior Business Process Automation Engineer at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Automation has transformed document processing and frees teams to focus on higher‑value analysis
Sometimes, we encounter system errors that could be resolved via support, but connection issues are more frequent in enterprise applications. However, these can usually be solved by raising tickets if you are part of an enterprise, though we are not, which makes it somewhat challenging. It is vital to ensure the connections of UiPath Platform are maintained because it has a larger community. If UiPath Platform website included more features and documentation accessible easily, it would greatly enhance the experience. Instead of continually needing to raise support tickets, having a documentation hub where details can just be entered to retrieve required documents would be extremely beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is very self-explanatory, making it easy for non-technical users to develop."
"The setup is straightforward. Automation Anywhere provides customer success managers to help with the setup."
"It integrates with different types of applications, so we can automate our business partners' redundant, repetitive tasks."
"Tasks now don't depend upon the unavailability of certain employees/colleagues to be completed. Also, bots can run all day long which also affects the overall budgets."
"It's really easy to use. We have a number of people at our firm who are now certified RPA developers that had no development background. They did that just by the online training in some cases. In some cases, it was the online training, as well as a three day class that we brought in-house and had taught."
"Automation Anywhere has been an integral part of this product's evolution in general. A hindrance that we were faced with was companies who did not have API integrations for Salesforce. This is where RPA and Automation Anywhere came in and helped us with integrating solutions which did not have API integrations within themselves. That's how we've evolved in the past two to three months."
"AA has helped to automate a complex Audit process, saving auditors from doing the mundane manual task of logging into multiple applications independently while the bot securely manages credentials, collects screenshots, builds PDFs, and reports results."
"We have found that the automation bots we have developed give great savings in terms of higher productivity and efficiency."
"This software is very smart - it can decide from a picture if we like that condition, and then the robot will do that action."
"NTT-AT WinActor has allowed our employees to focus on other things rather than the repetitive tasks that can now be given to the robot."
"The tool's most valuable feature is data import. The OCR feature helps to recognize the data. It can recognize screen and document numbers well."
"I love this tool, they have been improving it every year based on the user experience, or they have been releasing a stable version for any bugs."
"I like the way that I can reference specific objects on the screen, like a specific text box, and add a value to it. The capability that UiPath has to recognize elements on the screen is what I found most useful at that time."
"UiPath Platform has positively impacted my organization by shaping the enterprise and helping cut costs and risk associated with many different divisions across Vanguard, transforming the automation opportunities and reimagining manual processes with technologies to shape up and help the business deliver faster outcomes."
"Automation can be done in many ways, but UiPath is a more simple approach. There, any layman can learn how to program in UiPath, which is its main benefit."
"The Integration Service has benefited our organization by allowing us to streamline login activities that used to take a lot of time and required constant adjustments; with the Integration Service, we can proceed directly without worrying about anything breaking, and we receive alerts directly from there."
"The features of UiPath Platform that I prefer most, as compared to Power Automate, include Orchestrator, which is good, and I appreciate built-in data extraction."
"I highly recommend UiPath as it's easy to learn and offers significant advantages for all kinds of automation."
"The features of UiPath Platform that I prefer most are definitely IXP or Document Understanding."
 

Cons

"There were times in the past where through submitting a ticket for support, it seemed that some of the engineers who were helping me did not understand the product that they were supporting. That felt difficult because I felt I was almost explaining the product to the company."
"I hope that Automation Anywhere can further optimize its bots to help automate tasks with Microsoft Word documents and Microsoft PowerPoint documents because, in most organizations, there is a lot of reporting required."
"Some things that I do not see as of today are interactive chat or video interface. These are things that I will look for in future. I saw something like picture recognition, but something like a video or voice recognition is something that I'm looking for in the Automation Anywhere platform as an end user and even as a reseller."
"The cost of this solution can be improved."
"One area requiring improvement is the debugging process. When I use a multi-structure with conditions to switch from one bot to another, successful debugging of the entire process is not feasible. Each bot has to be debugged individually."
"Automation Anywhere is expensive. They should consider lowering the price to make Automation Anywhere more affordable to SMEs, which comprise a huge segment."
"The initial setup was not that great. The road was very up and down. We struggled. A lot of the features were not compatible with applications which we are using. That was the reason. This was the initial days, we are talking about 2016 to 2017. The buzz was not as much as we are having now."
"The API integration should be improved further since it is a bit difficult at the moment to connect with the API in the enterprise version."
"Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks."
"The OCR has issues recognizing handwritten data."
"Selector fails in iterative action so the next release must focus on selector related issue, and also, improvement is needed in its stability."
"Support could use improvement. It's always a struggle to engage with them."
"I think UiPath Platform can be improved by providing more support for customization in terms of integrating with some internal applications throughout the process, such as MCPs or APIs for various stages or products that they have."
"Our experience regarding customer support has been mixed. I cannot recall a specific example, but overall, customer support could benefit from improvements."
"I would like to see ongoing integrations with different applications. For example, we have UKG, which is an HRIS or HCM system. I'd love to see if there could be some sort of connection there because there are definitely some HR stuff from onboarding and offboarding that we do in the HCM that I'd love to have UiPath help with."
"Integrating with tools such as Asana or other service and project management platforms would be a valuable enhancement."
"One area for improvement I find challenging is the frequency of product updates; rapid upgrades, such as from version 2022 to 2024, complicate the migration process for organizations with many automations, especially those running on legacy systems."
"In UiPath Platform, I think there is room for improvement with the last release because they had some UI bugs; there are some buttons that do not work, and perhaps they should make it a little bit clearer which libraries are available or if they are deprecated, as we have had some issues with the libraries where they are working in some Studios but not in others, so the release management of the libraries needs attention."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't agree with the IQ Bot licensing costs, which depends on the consumption of the document rather than per bot or user. This is confusing for me, because most of the cases for us in a possible future scenario, there would be a lot of invalid data to be scanned to get to real data. E.g., we would have to supply approximately 100 pages of scanned data to extract two pages of original data. In these type of cases, the IQ Bot might be a costly venture."
"I advise others that even as of right now, the setup cost and licensing cost to automate bots on Automation Anywhere is steep but it is worth the investment!"
"Our licensing costs are setup on an annual basis."
"It is the most economically friendly and it provides you with a lot of functions."
"Annually, we are paying almost one million reais."
"The pricing of AA is similar to UiPath."
"It is expensive. I would rate Automation Anywhere an eight out of ten in terms of pricing."
"We have seen about a 10 percent monetary savings."
"We pay yearly for the agent who runs the processes, plus an additional fee for maintenance costs."
"The solution's pricing is fair."
"I believe that the price is on the higher side."
"I rate UiPath a five out of ten for affordability. UiPath costs a bit more than other tools like Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere."
"An area for improvement comes down to licensing. We need to sell UiPath to our company first... If we could have more of a trial period, since we're already licensed with Studio, and go through that trial period for key applications to see if they can benefit us, that would be helpful."
"If you want to start doing RPA, I think you should definitely go with UiPath because it has the Community edition. You can just install it and check whether or not your process works fine with UiPath. It will be an attended bot, but you can form an idea whether your bot can easily be automated."
"The main complaint I receive about UiPath is the pricing."
"Different licenses are used to activate features that the organization wants to use. For example, they offer licenses for UiPath Studio X, attended automation, unattended automation, document understanding, and so forth."
"UiPath's price is a little high compared to other solutions, but it's easier to use and maintain."
