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.

Automation has reduced manual finance work and has increased accuracy for high volume tasks
I am not sure if there is any disadvantage to UiPath Automation Cloud; I cannot say anything definitive. Sometimes when we upgrade our Studio version, there would be some issues when we use a new version, but I would not say there is a significant negative aspect. The latest issues with the new version involve glitches or latency that happen when we upgrade, and we face some issues that take time to fix. We have to open a new ticket and proceed through that process. As I heard, UiPath Automation Cloud is a little more expensive than other tools. I just heard this from other developer friends, but I have never used any other tools myself.

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

"Its integration with source control is very refreshing. There could be a little bit more maturity around how to do some of the features, but not having to go outside the app, not having a separate set of procedures, allows you to check in and check out right from within the app. You can make edits and uploads and undo your checkouts."
"Automation Anywhere offers a complete suite of development tools to empower developers for various enterprise automation needs."
"Since it can be utilized 24/7, the ROI is pretty high with minimal efforts and resources by using unattended automation."
"Earlier users were converting the unstructured data from the PDF into the structured format to process the task but now, this activity is replaced by IQ Bot."
"Not all tools give us the clear utilization of the infrastructure in place but this does and trust me, this has been proved far better than other RPA tools and that is why I see AA booming day by day."
"It has saved us a lot of hours, manual effort, and we can focus on more important tasks, which helps us with our ROI."
"Automation Anywhere has helped save many man-hours in my organization by letting us automate monotonous and repetitive tasks."
"Automation Anywhere has positively impacted my organization by saving millions of dollars over the past several years since we implemented it, along with saving a lot of hours, achieving a lot of ROI, realizing a lot of value, and significantly reducing urgency and stress."
"In general, the cloud migration has helped greatly, and overall UiPath Automation Cloud is a really good tool for enterprise-level automation."
"When you use human resources, there is some chance people can make mistakes, but UiPath Automation Cloud robots cannot, as they are very fast and do their job correctly and efficiently."
"The tool itself is easy. I started using it without really having any coding experience... After just a few clicks, it was doing reconciliations for me."
"Overall, I would recommend this solution to other users."
"The customer support is very responsive."
"The robots have helped increase the rate of efficiency by 75% to 80% from a customer perspective and 30% from an order entry perspective."
"The most valuable features are the Excel activities. It has a number of Excel activities that are quite reliable."
"In our opinion this group are the leaders in providing RPA solutions."
"WorkFusion helps us in automating our business processes, so it helps in many ways, including lowering the cost of delivery, reducing the cost of operations by employing fewer people, speeding up business processes, and improving employee morale, as people do not have to do repetitive work anymore."
"This product helps us by automating functions in finance, where users are able to have attended bots and save time by handing processes to the bots to run while they continue their own work."
 

Cons

"One improvement would be to implement a log mechanism within the workflow, similar to other automation tools. Currently, the log mechanism uses a text file. If we want to monitor a process, we need to check manually."
"More interactions with PDFs would be great for Automation Anywhere. The ability to use more legacy technology for object cloning, flash plugins, etc. A lot of their Excel commands could use some improvement."
"One key feature we are looking for from Automation Anywhere is the need for a fully evolved CI/CD pipeline approach within our IT organization, given that we manage multiple applications."
"It needs to have more options for integrating with other tools."
"It can be a challenge for a developer, as it limits what they can do."
"While the ease of use for non-tech users is good, it could be improved."
"It is not able to use OCR effectively and has limited usability."
"MetaBot still needs to be optimized, though Version 11.3 did integrate all the commands into it. We are not able to see all the lines of code which are executed in MetaBot."
"Sometimes when we upgrade our Studio version, there would be some issues when we use a new version, but I would not say there is a significant negative aspect."
"UiPath Automation Cloud needs to reduce the license cost. That is the first thing they need to concentrate on because many RPA tools are coming up in the market and some are much cheaper than UiPath Automation Cloud."
"The express version does not do API calls and the Enterprise version does not do codeless coding."
"There is enhanced functionality I would like to see, things that would further enhance the user experience, deliver greater efficiencies, and further mitigate risk."
"The product needs to be "simple and easy" to use. A good example of this is the use of Python code to perform automations. It is free and the skills transfer is able to happen quickly and the operation and initiation of the completed automation is easy to execute."
"It is difficult for non-technical users to use WorkFusion. If we really want to build automation, we definitely need Java developers."
"It is complex for enterprise implementation. The solution needs a needs minimum, of 20-22 servers. It's no small task. This is not a straightforward setup. It's a large undertaking and there are many moving parts."
"The solution is not user-friendly, this is something they should improve."
"Stability can be improved, especially when it comes to memory."
"I would rate the product as seven out of 10. It is definitely not a nine or 10 because there are certain shortcomings in it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a three-year contract with Automation Anywhere."
"The licensing cost is approximately $4,000 USD, which is a seed license."
"Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."
"I've seen the price vary by whether the client is going to scale and adopt a tool."
"It is not cheap, with costs ranging between 700 to 800 dollars per month. While Power Automate is cheaper at 15 dollars per month, Automation Anywhere offers superior features, user-friendliness, and smoothness."
"The price of this product is good."
"I am not responsible for the pricing part, but I know the pricing is competitive compared to other tools."
"We have seen the tangible benefits of taking monotonous work off people's plates, creating capacity, and cost reductions."

"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
"One upgrade took a year to do, from the first server being built to the last bot being migrated. This was because we had to migrate all our existing bots. This is the same process and time frame that we are expecting towards the upcoming upgrade. I will end up spending half a million dollars to do an upgrade."
"As a first-time customer who wants to engage with WorkFusion, not working for my company, then I would want to do a PoC. The cost is prohibitive because they will ask me to get infrastructure with six or seven servers. Then, you must buy a WorkFusion license to do a PoC, which is expensive. I would then have to set up a team to build the PoC and see the benefits. That is very prohibitive."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Find it online."
"We are on an annual contract to use the solution."
