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.

Robust document capture boosts efficiency and integration options
The best features include multiple channel capabilities such as fax, different file transfers, and paper scans. It can be integrated with multiple channels and can capture images, even from mobile devices integrating into OpenText Capture. Currently, it has introduced AI for data extraction and document processing. OpenText Capture's impact on automating document-intensive tasks such as accounts payables or loan processing is significant. It has the capability to capture table structures or multiple line items from images, including line items and final amounts for invoice processing. The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data. This product can be integrated into any point-of-sale system, Salesforce, SAP, or other environments, reducing manual data entry and related tasks. This feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption. The automation reduces human effort that would otherwise be required for classification and extraction tasks.

Cloud platform orchestrates business processes with AI capabilities
I find the capabilities that a normal orchestrator should have to be valuable in WorkFusion. The WorkFusion 10 cloud-based platform is different from the earlier on-prem version, WorkFusion 9. The platform now includes auto machine learning and AI capabilities. We haven't used these extensively, but they are a nice feature they are working on. The platform remains stable with well-designed processes, despite being a complex and technical tool.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Of the bots which work, they have automated three of the most time consuming tasks and completely freed up one person to do real work."
"The setup is straightforward. Automation Anywhere provides customer success managers to help with the setup."
"The OCR is the most valuable feature, though this is a third party feature that we have integrated. It is quite easy to integrate with other solutions."
"From my perspective, the most valuable features in Automation Anywhere are the ability to connect to different systems of records."
"We have saved time and money using this solution."
"Tasks or activities that were taking almost six hours a day have been reduced drastically to 30 minutes, which saves time as well as business costs."
"With Automation Anywhere, it has become very easy for us to do invoice billing. It has saved us about 80% of the time."
"What I appreciate the most about Automation Anywhere is that the end-user experience is superior to any of the other tools on the market that we've looked at."
"OpenText Intelligent Capture is pretty good."
"The enterprise and capturing feature of OpenText is its valuable feature. As we have integrated CRM with OpenText."
"The solution is very powerful because it allows for custom scripting."
"Being able to have accurate extraction is most valuable. It has machine learning and other tools to make the extraction more accurate."
"The automated version of the vendor invoice management is great, and it is helpful because it has reduced the human interaction in invoice processing."
"It allows you to image capture, scan documents and use machine learning to automatically index and tie them."
"We use it to capture documents coming through our product and mobile channels and make them available for our business to access and email. We use it to automate the email workflow in our applications, pull the documents, and email them to the users."
"The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data, and this feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption."
"WorkFusion has doubled our efficiency."
"If it is the first time a customer is a victim of fraud, he gets a refund within 10 to 15 minutes."
"The solution is stable, we have not had any glitches or problems."
"Their robots have increased the rate of efficiency by two to five times in our organization. There is still a human element to code out the package running the robots. You can't just click something and have it run. However, once that has been done, you can parallelize it 10 or 100 times in a fairly straightforward manner."
"The most valuable feature is that it is easy to use."
"It takes care of simple tasks so users can focus more on exceptions than on regular use cases. They only focus on orders where they need to handle an exception, some information was not given, or there is an issue that they had to focus on. The rest of it goes straight through without human touch. We want to see our employees as engineers, wherein they think and solve problems, not necessarily have to do repetitive tasks. I think WorkFusion helps with avoiding repetitive tasks."
"Their robots have increased the rate of efficiency by two to five times in our organization."
"The most valuable features are the recorder because it's user-friendly and the integration with other tools Excel."
 

Cons

"I noticed that from version 10.5 to 11.3 the number of clicks to start a bot through the Control Room and Schedule Manager have increased. In certain cases, I would like to see that become simpler, faster, and easier."
"The Control room audit logs should be moved to an archive for those that are more than six months old."
"We are not getting consistent behavior from the tool We would like to see this improved and the product more stable."
"The only thing I would advocate for is making Automation Anywhere's developer environment Mac-enabled because many of our graduate students are coming out of school with Macs. Everything else in the Automation Anywhere world is built for Windows."
"Automation Anywhere is a tool. It is not able to go ahead and extract the hand-written documents. Most of the automation tools that we have in the market are not able to get an accuracy of close to 80 to 90 percent on hand-written documents. So, I'm eagerly looking at a release from Automation Anywhere, wherein they could plug in an LP or look at some sort of a platform which could convert hand-written documents into a readable format. If they could bring in they own platform, this would make a big in-roads for the entire automation industry."
"Setting up Automation Anywhere is a bit complex."
"I would like to see improvement in its scalability."
"It should be easier to use."
"Its functionality is good, but it has to be made more accurate. If it is not customized and handheld properly, the recognition and captures won't be accurate."
"The area for improvement primarily centers around licensing concerns rather than technical issues. Captiva, intended for larger clients, poses challenges for medium and small businesses due to licensing costs. The current licensing model is based on volume, such as purchasing a volume for one million dollars per year for scanning. This pricing structure may be prohibitive for companies with constrained budgets. Another aspect requiring attention is the mobile capture feature, which, although experiencing recent enhancements in intelligent document processing through AI, could benefit from further improvements. Specifically, there is room for enhancement in enabling users to efficiently capture documents using their smartphones."
"I would say what most of the document management solutions are lacking is smartness to detect the duplicate storage of the documents."
"The setup is medium complexity."
"We are using it to improve the image and the documentation for the cases. And sometimes, some cases have more than fifteen different types. We use some tools as fixed standard analysis and provide information to support the different types to take some decisions and help in an automated process. We choose the case type and subtype DNS scanning documents from the data entry up."
"If something is handwritten and attached to an email, it doesn't capture the information correctly."
"It can be more user-friendly, and it should also have more reporting capabilities. There are also a few other things that need improvement."
"Knowledge of .NET is required to effectively use the solution or it can be complicated."
"I would like WorkFusion to improve the automation rate when evaluating unstructured text."
"We would like to see further improvement in the area of running headless."
"The product could do more to expand its 'codeless' coding options by adding drag-and-drop assistance in building bots for non-technical users."
"The most common issue we have is with the OCR, but that also depends on the quality of the documents your scanning. Still, I would say the OCR is comparable to other solutions. I wouldn't say it's better or worse than other OCR engines."
"The express version does not do API calls and the Enterprise version does not do codeless coding."
"A better graphical user interface that allows business users to perform automation would make this solution number one in the market."
"So far, we have developed only one automation using machine learning. The results were less than optimal. Part of this could be because of the use case that was selected. Overall, our experience was suboptimal. WorkFusion was an outstanding partner in terms of providing their experts for free to help us on that particular use case, but we still have a lot of things to figure out in terms of how to use its machine learning capability."
"There could be better version control through their web platform. That is something that could be improved on. Integration from the IDE, e.g., from WorkFusion Studio directly into Control Tower, would be nice to have too."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If it is saving FTE and Generating a good ROI then it is Worth Investing."
"We have a three-year contract with Automation Anywhere."
"Although the initial implementation cost of Automation Anywhere is relatively high compared to other options, its annual subscription cost is lower than UiPath's, which has the opposite pricing structure."
"We are not receiving the right information about their features, e.g. Automation Anywhere University, or anything that they are selling. They need to improve their documentation."
"The solution's pricing is pretty decent."
"It is not cheap, but we are able to get an ROI."
"Our costs are approximately between $5,000 to $10,000 per license."
"Despite being less expensive than UiPath, Automation Anywhere remains cost-prohibitive for many small and medium-sized businesses."
"Some customers say the solution can get costly because it requires licenses or enterprise packages."
"OpenText is an expensive solution."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
"Find it online."
"The overall cost could come down a bit in terms of maintaining the servers. Because it can handle complicated things in big use cases, the infrastructure is also correspondingly big. It would be nice to bring that cost down."
"We are on an annual contract to use the solution."
"The solution was not the cheapest, but it was also not the most expensive. Workfusion was very open to negotiating pricing and to working within the objectives of our firm."
"My client is using RPA Express, which is available for them to use free of charge."
"We have a good deal from WorkFusion. We have an unlimited global licensing deal with WorkFusion. For us, it is a no-worry solution. We can go ahead and use it as much as possible anywhere we need it. If WorkFusion has a different kind of a deal for licensing with others, then their business decisions need to be evaluated based on that."
"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
