Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It improves accuracy and reduces manpower. It is easy to learn.""From a manageability perspective, this solution is very good.""While RPA is the cutting-edge technology to bring digital transformation, the RPA as a service will reduce costs and increase efficiency with ease of deployment, less maintenance, and cheaper upgrade costs.""The company continues with research and development to expand the capabilities of the product to meet market needs.""It is highly scalable on cloud and virtual machines.""By using this solution for RPA, we can automate a lot of business processes, which helps achieve less time to market.""There is a very accelerated learning curve on the platform.""The solution has removed humans making errors while increasing our time savings. We now have a lot of more efficiencies in our process."

"The performance and load testing are very good.""The way it identifies elements is good.""Before using Telerik Test Studio, I was a manual tester, so it was my first automation tool, yet I felt very comfortable using it. I've used the record and play feature, and Telerik Test Studio was easy to use. The tool was easy to understand, even for a first-time user like me.""The most valuable aspects of the solution are the font, size, and interface.""Has a very smooth process for launching and closing the application after execution."

Cons
"Automation Anywhere is a tool. It is not able to go ahead and extract the hand-written documents. Most of the automation tools that we have in the market are not able to get an accuracy of close to 80 to 90 percent on hand-written documents. So, I'm eagerly looking at a release from Automation Anywhere, wherein they could plug in an LP or look at some sort of a platform which could convert hand-written documents into a readable format. If they could bring in they own platform, this would make a big in-roads for the entire automation industry.""Automation Anywhere should make it easier for developers to manage queues and exception handling. The OCR component could also be better. We have had to use other OCR tools to get information from the account documents.""IQ Bot is pretty good, but we can only run a maximum 150 documents.""We have encountered some issues in the actions like Terminal Emulator-> Send Key -> Page Down/Up not working.""I would like to see a global error handler introduced, which will explicitly handle errors over the entire project.""The user interface should be enhanced to make things simpler for the user.""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.""The optical character recognition of various documents and templates, particularly when using the Arabic language, has room for improvement."

More Automation Anywhere (AA) Cons →

"The charts need to be more detailed and customizable.""There are some compatibility issues with the load standpoint test.""Its UI is not very user-friendly and could be improved. For new users, it isn't easy.""I observed that the Excel and Word validation was quite challenging, which is an area for improvement in the tool. I also experienced minor difficulties with Telerik Test Studio, particularly in fetching elements in some scenarios when using C# for coding.""It can be improved by including a feature that allows multiple file types to be selected simultaneously."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Pricing is too high for small-scale groups. The Control Room yearly fee is high, making it difficult to break even."
  • "Automation Anywhere is competitive... Pega is somewhat comparable, but Pega also requires a lot more infrastructure and a lot more experience to get up and running."
  • "Automation Anywhere is costlier than the general competition. That is aligned with the share of the market it has."
  • "They're very flexible around pricing and licensing."
  • "They give us a good deal on the licensing because we bundle and customize things. If you ask to get a bulk business deal, you will receive more benefit. If you take other products from the suite, like IQ Bot, you can also receive a deal on the licensing."
  • "We just did a round of price comparison on a global scale and found it's so hard to compare the license prices. But, Automation Anywhere, in general, is on the same price level as the other vendors, a bit lower in some cases."
  • "If you look at the capital expenditure, Automation Anywhere is number two to UiPath. But if you take a long-term view, on a scalable model of a large number of bots coming out, it slowly goes on to become the costliest tool. There is something they can do about that. The capital expenditure goes out right at the point of buying the tool. For Automation Anywhere, I would need to spend $20,000. UiPath can give me something for $6,000, while Blue Prism will come in at $300,000."
  • "It's cheaper than other similar solutions."

  • "The pricing is fair so I rate it an eight out of ten."
