"Automation Anywhere helps improve our organization by allowing us to automate processes that should not be manual."
"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."
"The recorder feature for front end automation and email packages is the most valuable feature as it has more features and it makes the email server related tasks easier and more independent on the email client."
"I really like the Automation Anywhere University website because it has a lot of good documents that you can read to learn about the solution."
"RPA platform with a good accuracy rate, variable management, and OCR feature. It has a straightforward setup."
"The recording feature accelerates the timeline of your implementation."
"By automating processes we give back valuable hours to business stakeholders, which can be spent on value-adding activities instead of repetitive tasks."
"IBM Rational Functional Tester is very contextual."
"Test automation is most valuable because it saves a lot of time."
"The most valuable feature is the UI component tester."
"It is compatible with all sorts of Dark Net applications. Its coverage is very good."
"We have a new feature share in Automation Anywhere, but it does not migrate automatically from the previous version to the new one."
"They have done a fairly good job on the RPA space, but more and more, the whole cognitive AI space and machine learning are where I see the industry actually going. I'm sure Automation Anywhere is also focused on that topic, but we would like to see more coming down the pipe, as early as possible."
"This solution should be more user-friendly so that our clients can take a bot that we have developed for them, and then run it by themselves."
"IQ Bot is pretty good, but we can only run a maximum 150 documents."
"Reliability and error handling should be improved."
"I want the tool to be more stabilized. After three or four hours, the navigation keeps changing. We will be running error handling for 8,000 process and the system will fail. We need it to be more stable."
"Regarding the UI, once you're in some of the screens there are fixed dialogues. They are a set size, so there's a lot of horizontal scrolls and vertical scrolls."
"The initial setup was complex because we had to make sure all the security aspects were approved by our leadership."
"The latest version has increased load time before testing can be run."
"They need to do a complete revamp so that even a non-technical person can manage the tool."
"If the solution is running on Linux, there are some issues around application compatibility."
"As many of our products are moving from PC to mobile, the most important thing that this solution needs is mobile app support."
