We performed a comparison between Automation Anywhere (AA) and Blue Prism Cloud 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."The capacity to use Automation Anywhere in the cloud is the most valuable feature."
"We can access it anywhere. E.g., I can access dashboard from my Control Room on my mobile app using Automation Anywhere."
"The best part about Automation Anywhere is the easy to use UI. It's very user-friendly. You have everything that you want in front of your eyes. You just have to drag and drop, then build your logic accordingly."
"Object cloning with an option to enter wildcard selection was very useful when working in a web application that generated dynamic HTML content."
"Automation Anywhere is stable."
"The company continues with research and development to expand the capabilities of the product to meet market needs."
"Object Cloning is the most valuable feature I have found for automating a website or a process that includes multiple mouse clicks."
"It has improved a lot. We could identify a lot of manual processes that can be automated for our customers. The scope of automation by using Automation Anywhere has become wonderful. IQ Bot and AI sense are the incredible features provided."
"We can save on staff costs by automating processes."
"If I look at the top four, I believe it is far more user-friendly than the other competition."
"It's easy to use, the interface, the the the the queries is which we use. It's user friendly."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to write custom code."
"The product itself is quite mature."
"Blue Prism is able to scale up at an enterprise-level. It's what I used when I was working for a big bank in Belgium."
"With Blue Prism, I like the feature that you build, I don't know the exact name now, but blocks or standards can be reduced later. You configure, for example, the CRM system, and you create a standardized manner of inputting data into the CRM system that you can reuse later. I'm not sure what that's called, but I enjoy it whether it's a feature or not."
"This solution comes with a lot of good features."
"I need high value products to be created, so I need integration with other solutions. Machine learning and AI need to be integrated with Automation Anywhere. While IQ Bot is a good beginning, our company does not work with manual paperwork since we are already digital. We would like to see more integration with cognitive tools going forward."
"We had initial hiccups, like any new process. It took us six to eight months to sort the product out."
"I feel the tool has to provide deeper insights for debugging issues, considering both internal and external factors."
"With the PDF command, you can only read structured data. If your data is in an unstructured format, there is no command for it in Automation Anywhere. Then, people need to use Python coding if their data is in unstructured format. Therefore, Automation Anywhere needs to improve in the PDF area."
"Now, it is a big complex to download the product and install it, then again to install the patches. So, it takes a lot of time to download it."
"We face some issues, but we can’t prove them again. They occurred sometimes, but don’t occur again. For example, I record a video when a bot is running, and it is working fine. Another time it is not working. We face issues with Excel file creation. I’m trying to create a file in Excel .xls. It is getting corrupted."
"OCR technology could be more inclusive by offering a wider range of supported languages, as its current selection is limited."
"The process discovery side needs improvement."
"It would be useful if some of the information protocols came built within the app instead having to create them."
"The pricing was a bit high, from what I understand. That might have played a role in the decision to migrate to another solution."
"The tool’s customer support should improve. There were instances where I tried to call them up and was put on hold. However, they do revert back through emails once a ticket has been issued. They should be quick with their responses on calls."
"Blue Prism Cloud's pricing needs to be improved because it is a little bit more costly than other automation tools like UIPath."
"It takes a while to get up and running."
"They should improve the user-friendliness and they should change their business model."
"There's a need to deal with unstructured input with RPA."
"The AI part is currently missing in Blue Prism Studio... It would be good if the AI part is included in Blue Prism Studio, which can make it much more efficient and good to work."
