Automation Anywhere

Featured Reviews

Venkat Sivaprakash

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.

Hemanthreddy Vakiti

Data engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Structured workflows have improved SLA compliance and now support prioritized incident handling

I think the licensing and pricing of ServiceNow is quite expensive compared to other tools. For large organizations, it is acceptable, but specifically for small and medium organizations to track incidents or change requests, ServiceNow is quite expensive. Sometimes performance can be slow when workflows and integrations are configured for complex tasks. For advanced customizations or advanced features which we rarely use, the documentation is not up to standard. The documentation needs to be improved for advanced customization features. However, the platform is stable overall and the features are quite good. The user experience and performance concerns I mentioned are areas I want to be improved. When many workflows and interactions are configured, performance is slow. For the features it is providing, it is quite expensive. If these performance features are improved, we can easily pay that price and get the return on investment.

Edward Carbutt

Executive Director at Marval Software

Offers multi-tenancy architecture, both in terms of functionality and reporting, requires minimal configuration and no-code deployment

We're still biased towards our previous, more mature product. 4me still needs to reach that level of maturity. However, for most users, the product will do what they need. It's only when you have mature service management processes and need deeper integrations at the process level that you might encounter some limitations. But for less mature needs, 4me works well.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have worked with various tools over many years and we believe that Automation Anywhere is one of the most stable platforms."

"Bot Insights is neatly integrated into the platform, which enables us to develop rapidly and train the learning instances using pre-defined domains over the purchase orders, forms, and invoices that need to be processed."

"With Automation Anywhere, our clients can get their work done fast and in an automated manner."

"The initial deployment is not difficult at all for someone doing it for the first time."

"The most valuable features of this solution are its scalability, security using the credential vault, and ease of use for business."

"I also very much like the integrating of this solution with other applications. We have some old web applications that we've been using, and we've been writing some of our own DLLs to integrate with it. It has worked really well."

"We have automated our critical functions, like supply chain management and purchase orders, and we have staff who have been moved out of the mundane tasks and are now doing value-added activities."

"This solution has been great for our company in almost every way possible."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"In the Service Portal, the widget concept - and the way we have developed our widget - is pretty simple. We can leverage a lot on top of it."

"Its integrated process data-model is a feature that's valuable for us."

"Now, ServiceNow is a leader and its pricing is quite good, quite competitive."

"I like the flexibility on ServiceNow; we use it for our help desk admin and our call center, but we also use it for our knowledge management system, which is our growth area, and we get to add our custom homemade apps plus vendor apps to integrate into it to get the total package that we need."

"I think the technical support is pretty good. They can be a little bit slow sometimes, but overall I think they're good."

"I've seen other products, I've seen some of the stuff that they can do, but I really haven't seen one that can, at least in my mind, replace our ServiceNow for everything that we've put into it and everything that we've done, and it would be a very hard thing to do."

"The best feature of ServiceNow, from my perspective, is that it is completely integral to our work on security, because from the start we can attend to tickets and through to resolving the ticket it helps us since every documentation is done by ServiceNow."

"It offers ready-built automation and simpler configuration for workflows."

More ServiceNow pros

"The solution is highly stable."

"The multi-tenancy architecture, both in terms of functionality and reporting, is the best feature. It is a really well-thought, designed, and developed part of this product."

"It offers a comprehensive set of features without requiring additional payments for each feature."

"When compared to BMC Helix ITSM, the 4me setup is much simpler and less complicated."

"I like their request management as well as their project management."

Cons

"Automation Anywhere needs to improve the startup time, as it tends to lag at the beginning of the day."

"Also, the Master certification should be provided free of cost for partners."

"It is a bit wonky with HTML when I'm working with it. There are times when it's not able to detect the technology that we are using. I don't know whether it's an Automation Anywhere issue or an internal issue. I want it to work smoothly with more technologies."

"Automation Anywhere has some limitation with its integrations."

"Automation Anywhere is expensive. They should consider lowering the price to make Automation Anywhere more affordable to SMEs, which comprise a huge segment."

"Room for improvement is more on the IQ Bot side: How quickly we can adopt and deploy it?"

"If there were one thing I could ask for it would be a text-based language. Right now it's proprietary, so you always have to go through the tool, even for things like basic compares."

"Automation Anywhere can be improved by integrating self-correction capabilities into the bots, particularly as we develop RPA, where changes in environment paths require additional redeveloping efforts."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"It's moving at a very fast pace. It is difficult for developers or engineers to keep up with it. That's the only issue."

"Its setup is tough. It takes a lot of knowledge and a lot of experience."

"The solution could improve by making the CMDB integrate with a CI better to allow it to be seen across multiple platforms."

"Their cloud management is also not that great compared to other products."

"Calendar views - there are no nice calendar views and I think I'm just starting to learn about resource management but it would be nice for them to have the roadmaps so you can see an actual calendar view to see where, from a project, you are."

"Reaching beyond IT asset management is the biggest challenge to ServiceNow right now."

"Primary areas of inefficiencies and delays were related to change resistance and lack of support from the IT Team Lead and IT Manager level staff for involvement in ServiceNow design and training workshops, and lack of support for governing new process policies."

"While ServiceNow has many options, the number of options can sometimes be confusing regarding where to click or how things work, as it is based on configuration provided by the administrator."

More ServiceNow cons

"We would like to be able to customize and brand the solution, or at least the majority of its features and dashboards, particularly those that will be used by a large number of people."

"We're still biased towards our previous, more mature product. 4me still needs to reach that level of maturity."

"One area where I believe there's room for improvement in the 4me system is the absence of an asset discovery tool."

"Asset Discovery is a feature that should be added."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an annual subscription for Automation Anywhere."

"We have a three-year contract with Automation Anywhere."

"Its price is competitive with all other products in the market."

"It's fine. However, I'm concerned with the credits in terms of the pricing for the AI models. It is understandable that the new ones are more expensive, but the base models, after doing the pricing conversion, cost about four to ten times as much as paying directly."

"IQ Bots are very costly. It's not a sustainable bot for us as of now. We will look for better, alternate options for that."

"I would rate the cost of Automation Anywhere as a six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."

"The pricing and licensing of Automation Anywhere plays an important rule in the Indian market because in the Indian market $10,000 USD is too much. Hence, the pricing tends to go down depending on the customer relationship with the partner: A starter pack is $10,000 and an enterprise pack is $100,000. If you go through an implementation partner, you can get good deals. They can save some money."

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

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"It has a higher cost compared to local/regional solutions."

"The price of the solution is comparable to industry standards. For the features that we received, it is reasonable."

"The cost is quite high."

"The solution is expensive."

"ServiceNow is a leader and its pricing is quite good, quite competitive... Sometimes some plugins are not priced reasonably but, generally, the platform itself, its modules, are priced reasonably."

"$230 per user."

"The pricing is on the high side, but if you look at the stability and option to work, it's kind of justified."

"Initially, the licensing model ServiceNow came up with was very good. But now, from a licensing perspective, they are changing their model day by day. It is becoming a bit expensive for customers."

More ServiceNow pricing and cost advice

"The pricing is expensive."

"The licensing costs on the website are about $60 for pay-as-you-go. And then it decreases based on volume discounts or something."

"It is the most affordable because it is priced per month per user."

"This pricing falls on the lower end of the spectrum, making it a cost-effective option."
