We performed a comparison between Automation Anywhere (AA) and AutomationEdge based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"We have used support a few times for one of our customers, and they respond quickly. If the issue involves a critical production system, they respond to the request on the same day."
"The development of the company from Automation Anywhere V11 to a2019 was valuable. I found many important and new features, like changing the way we write code and programming. It became much easier and very flexible in version 2019A. It became very easy to use and the recording was also good. Excel became very good too."
"We've noticed time savings of up to 40 minutes, based on wait time and verification delays."
"Automation Anywhere has a uniqueness with respect to the IQ Bot."
"The addition of excel advanced to directly append worksheets, add formulas, etc was very beneficial and made the code development faster."
"By using this, we are saving time and we no need to do routine work, as it is now automated and the result is shared with all of the end-users."
"The best features are the ease of use, the short learning curve, and the good support from our local partner."
"We are automatizing redundant activities, releasing employees to do value-added activities."
"The product's most valuable feature is the executor."
"The initial setup was easy and straightforward."
"The chatbot that they have is most valuable. It is one of the best features because they own it, and they don't need to integrate with other parties to have a chatbot. This is one of the main features. The rest of the features are common to all RPA tools or vendors available in the market."
"It helps us with cost optimization and easy implementation."
"The ability to automate our processes with external plug-ins and zero code is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of AutomationEdge is creating accounts."
"The studio design is fine compared to other similar products. There is nothing extraordinary about it, but at the same time, there are not any negatives."
"The support from the vendor is very good."
"One of the things that we did was purchase the solution originally through IBM, as they had an value-added layer on top of it. Once we had another group come on, they purchased additional bots directly from Automation Anywhere, and they wouldn't integrate well. We had to uninstall the solution that we had purchased from IBM and reinstall those bots to move forward."
"Anything that can be done to increase the stability from a system standpoint in regards to large-scale systems, which are being used by a number of applications, e.g., Salesforce or Workday."
"IQ Bot requires a significant improvement for its data detection and data retention, mainly from the previously trained documents: regarding the document's format, layout, data contained within the document, the type of data that needs to be extracted."
"Right now, we are using a VM with Automation Anywhere installed inside it, but it would be nice if the solution could be used on macOS."
"One area where I can see room for improvement is the training material that is available."
"Having some more pre-mapping and pre-setup analysis of what you're going to be doing with it would be helpful."
"We have trouble with large volumes of data in Excel and are not getting good results."
"I would like the ability to extract the code. You can go line by line, then open up each line of code and dig into the details, but it would be nice to extract all of the lines of code and all of the details into a document so we could read through everything. Right now, there is no way to really consume all of the code at once, except line by line, which can be fairly time consuming if we don't really know what we are looking for."
"It's not an intuitive tool."
"With other automation solutions in the market, we can simulate the process in our notebooks where the solution creates the code for us, but with AutomationEdge we can't do this."
"With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming."
"The installation process could improve. It was difficult to complete."
"There are some shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement."
"The ease of use is the main thing on which they really have to focus. If they want to go against the giants, it should be improved in ease of use, and it should be more user-friendly. It would be helpful because everyone should be empowered irrespective of whether they know how to code or not. They should enhance its user interface and make it more intuitive."
"AutomationEdge's ecosystem has shortcomings and needs improvement. When we compare AutomationEdge to other RPA tools in our company, we find that it has a very minor online community."
"They could provide more technologies for IT and security to enhance machine learning capabilities."
