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.

Omni-channel routing has transformed case handling and now supports complex field operations

From my experience, we might need queue-based alignment in Omni-Channel routing. Assignment rules should be defined at the flow level. The challenge with SLA creation is evident in escalation rules, which should include a field flagging feature that is lacking in the current setup. Einstein Bot, linked with Omni-Channel messaging, is complex to define, with a need for all related information in one place, making the process cumbersome. Understanding which bot is associated with specific messaging apps requires manual searching, and this can be improved.

A modular, easy-to-use solution that needs to improve support and include automation

There are one or two annoying things. For example, if you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself. That's annoying. If you have five items in the drop-down list or if you have a hundred, it's just pathetic. It makes no sense that you have to do that because I've never seen it not work before in any other system that I've ever worked with. If you make a list of things, most solutions automatically put it in an alphabetized order. Or it'll put it in date order, but there is some order. It doesn't just go randomly in the order you create them. For example, I might load about 20 neighborhoods into a drop-down list, starting at "a" and ending at "z." But I might miss one of the "b's" and two of the "c's," so I add them, but they are added after the "z." Then I have to go to the bottom of the list, click on the one that starts with "b," and drag it all the way up to the "b's." That's just a pain in the butt.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We've noticed time savings of up to 40 minutes, based on wait time and verification delays."

"It is one of the popular RPA vendors offering powerful & user-friendly RPA capabilities to automate any complex tasks. It is one of the "Revolutionary Technology" that changes the way the enterprise operates. This tool combines conventional RPA with intellectual elements like natural language understanding and reading any unstructured data."

"You do not need to have IT skills. I come from a finance background, so I can attest to the fact that you do not need IT skills to use Automation Anywhere to leverage it on your teams."

"This is a great platform, and we are implementing the logic into the bots that they are using to automate."

"Being able to implement automation is valuable. We take the business logic and provide a solution to the client. Defining the intelligence pipeline is the most interesting and challenging aspect for me."

"What Automation Anywhere does exceptionally well is allowing users—especially those without a technical background—to navigate easily, and if you know how to work with Excel or Word, you can simply type commands in plain English like 'save Excel' or 'open Excel' to find the corresponding actions."

"RPA is a feature that really helped eliminate errors during the execution of structured business processes."

"Training videos are very good and include detailed examples, which is really helpful for beginners."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"It’s feasible to configure the platform according to the specific processes utilised. Customization of the platform could be carried out based on the techniques we employ."

"Automation, order of execution, bulkification, and error monitoring are features that I found to be valuable, and with Salesforce, I have not faced any issues related to these functionalities."

"The main benefit is having it integrated with the core Salesforce."

"The plug-ins that work with other standard systems have made the product industry-ready."

"I started to use it two months ago and absolutely love it."

"It's a cloud tool, so it is easy to set up."

"We used Salesforce Service Cloud for CRM (customer relationship management) cases and general sales cases."

"Logging activities and creating opportunities are easier than before, and it provides visibility of the sales pipeline."

More Salesforce Service Cloud pros

"The most valuable feature of Vtiger CRM is automation."

"The fact that we can build our own modules on the solution is really quite attractive, and it's not overly complex."

"Very flexible and customizable; we appreciate being able to host it locally with direct access to the backend."

Cons

"Automation Anywhere can improve the product in potential areas of improvement with respect to automation and AI."

"If I build a bot today and don't use it, however, in several months, someone tries to use it, there's a 30-40% change the bot will fail in one or two areas."

"I would like to see more complex use cases coming out for our industry."

"There is a lot of scope for improvement in terms of stability. It is a concern, because right now we are close to 20 to 25 percent false negatives that are coming up."

"Automation Anywhere could assist in this transition."

"When working with Excel, unlike other tools such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere does not have the standard variables for .Net data types."

"Their license model needs to be improved. The biggest issue for me is that the license is tied to a person, and it is not something that I can pass if I want to use it for the first five hours and pass it on to you for the next five hours and so on. When we automate, the license is tied to me, and if you or somebody else needs to use that license, as a COE administrator, I need to transfer the license from person A to person B. This is something that I have always told them that should not be this way because you want to utilize your licenses effectively."

"The setup and deployment processes for this product also need to be improved, e.g. made easier."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"I face challenges with Salesforce Service Cloud because it requires and is difficult to customize."

"We've started using a couple of AI engines. I believe there's room for improvement there. For instance, when an agent receives a message like "My order is stuck midway, and the delivery guy isn't responding," there should be a pre-populated recommended response on the agent's screen. Instead of crafting a custom reply or searching through knowledge articles to find the delivery guy's contact, this should be the process."

"Customer Service: 3/10 Technical Support: 3/10"

"We're seeing a lot of automation and AI enhancements for improvements. This helps answer simple questions without manual intervention, saving time. We can improve by automating more of our solution-building process. Salesforce Service Cloud is a SaaS (Software as a Service) solution. It's constantly evolving, and we're always looking for ways to improve our use. The cloud services we use include CRM (Salesforce), financial (NetSuite), and people (Workday). These services are becoming more automated, with a lot happening in the AI space. We do a lot of modeling ourselves to find answers to questions, and our product team has introduced some AI enhancements."

"I guess it loses a point because the demos we see on world tours have a lot of customization in them and are not at all out-of-the-box."

"Since customization can increase the cost from an implementation standpoint, we focus on showcasing Service Cloud's built-in features and possibilities."

"Specifically, they need to improve the Knowledge Management module."

"The solution’s user interface could be improved."

More Salesforce Service Cloud cons

"If you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself."

"The charts and graphs available out of the box are pretty outdated, and you're a little limited in how you can present information on the dashboard without adding modules."

"The mobile design could improve in Vtiger CRM. It could be more user-friendly."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"Price is where I'm least satisfied. Other vendors are more willing to offer discounts."

"Time-wise: We have saved hundreds of thousands of hours."

"We have established a CoE and we take our bot opportunities based on their ROIs. The best ROI opportunity goes to development first. Our ROI opportunities are compliance, profitable growth, productivity enhancements, productivity gains, number of hours the productivity saved, and resources not available that the work can be done by the bot. However, the single most important criteria that we use to measure ROI is how much time does the bot cut down from an analyst's work, as this has the best ROI. E.g., if an analyst is spending a 100 hours of work that a bot can do in one hour, we calculate the 99 hours saved as ROI."

"Automation Anywhere is expensive, making it suitable only for enterprise organizations."

"The licensing needs to be made simpler or shortened."

"Automation Anywhere offers a subscription-based licensing model for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid deployments."

"Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"The licensing is flexible. Companies pay for what they use. However, a company with very small needs might find it difficult to justify the cost. Overall, it's in the medium price range."

"Salesforce is not a cheap product. It can be expensive."

"I believe that in our country, Colombia, we utilize this platform for the Latin American region. In terms of expenses, it's somewhat higher compared to other products. I would rate it as expensive and nine out of ten."

"The solution is priced at 50 dollars a month per user."

"The price is too expensive."

"Salesforce Service Cloud is expensive. I worked with ExactTarget over five years ago, and it was quite pricey then. Not everyone could afford it. Salesforce has different tiers for different kinds of users. It's expensive considering their features and services, but they offer best-in-class solutions."

"Salesforce Service Cloud is a bit expensive."

"The product is expensive. There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product."

More Salesforce Service Cloud pricing and cost advice

"We are using the free open-source version of Vtiger CRM."

"The price doesn't change when you add users. It's a flat fee, and that's attractive."
