Venkat Sivaprakash - PeerSpot reviewer
Management Consultant at Accenture
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.

Chief Technology Officer at a tech services company with 1-10 employees
Business processes are automated efficiently with a well-designed interface
There is room for improvement in integrations and customizations for AgilePoint and other low-code, no-code solutions. Additionally, the marketing of such products should be more honest. They often claim to solve all process automation needs, but they only handle problems of certain complexity. AgilePoint cannot handle highly complex processes like ERPs.
Sagar Gaikwad - PeerSpot reviewer
Sr Business Application Developer on Zoho Platform. at Tech Worriors
Maximized business efficiency and reduced costs with comprehensive app development
Areas of Zoho Creator that could be improved in the future include further advancements in AI capabilities. They are working on generating AI features, and I believe enhancing the user interface could also be beneficial, as the company's focus seems more on functionality. UI could use some upgrades for better user experiences. I would like them to keep enhancing their user interface, as while functionality is essential, improvement in UI would also benefit developers and end-users alike. The desired improvements would focus on the user interface to support both developers and end-users better, even though there are alternate options available for hosting JavaScript pages, which I believe are unnecessary. HTML, CSS, and Bootstrap are supported, but I feel enhancements in UI/UX could further optimize user interactions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"With Automation Anywhere bots, we are able to cut down the manual efforts by 80% in generating Excel and Power BI reports, extracting and uploading files to various sites, and many other web-based administrative tasks."
"The CyberArk integration and setup are really amazing and it helps us to win deals for new projects."
"We needed scalability and the ability to perform 10,000 or 1,000 or 200 tasks at any moment. No other software that we have had could provide such scalability and is built in a modular way."
"Notifications and triggers are especially good."
"Features such as MetaBot and IQ Bot are very advanced and capable as compared to reading PDFs using OCR."
"We have been able to take resources that have been doing manual work and putting them into more productive work."
"The most valuable feature is that it is intuitive. It is designed so business users can use it with a drag and drop functionality to develop automation of business processes. Since they are the experts on business processes, there are probably the best ones to create the automation."
"We used to do many daily routine checks and jobs. We have implemented the automation knowledge which resulted in good productivity, time-saving, and extra efforts being reduced."
"AgilePoint's most valuable feature is process management."
"The initial setup of AgilePoint was very easy."
"AgilePoint has improved our organization by making form implementation easier and to plan for future growth."
"The solution's workflows are its most useful feature."
"Anytime companies need any solution with workflow, they can base it on AgilePoint, because AgilePoint allows companies to design and implement workflows very fast using the system's interface."
"AgilePoint's automation is excellent in managing different user roles and handling data associated with a particular instance of the workflow."
"I like the design and the integration capacity, and it's also easy to use."
"We can create multiple applications simultaneously with it."
"Traditionally, such applications require entire teams of developers, but with Zoho Creator, one single developer can handle everything."
"Can access information from other Zoho packages and you can write custom scripts."
"Zoho Creator helps to maintain the products in development."
"Zoho Creator can be integrated with other platforms easily; for this reason, I think that it's superior to the other solutions I evaluated."
"Zoho Creator is one of the best tools; I also have experience converting applications to Android and iOS, which is essential because customers want to install APK files and iOS application files."
"Zoho Creator provides a quick turnaround in terms of project closures, which is the most important benefit."
"The most valuable feature of Zoho Creator is that we can easily create applications because there is 360-degree flexibility available."
 

Cons

"There is definitely some room for improvement there. It is sort of a hit and miss with their support engineers, you have some really good ones and some that aren't."
"They have incorporated many latest technologies, such as AI, and there is always scope to improve the processes and have more stability."
"We noticed slowness in a few of the commands like Object Cloning, Web Recorders, etc. on which Automation Anywhere can work to make it more robust. There are improvements required in the WLM solution provided by AA, which can make it a more robust queuing system and the system should retry by itself in case of failure due to system error."
"The Help menu/description can be provided while hovering over actions so that it can help us better to know them."
"I would like to be able to look at the steps that are completed as a process is running."
"The architecture and pro-code support for pro-code agents are areas that could use improvement, which they don't have currently."
"They will need much more support, because it is a new thing and it’ll never fail because of productive partners. It will fail if people on the “gemba” don’t adopt it."
"Sometimes, I find that Excel automation is not as expected. Excel automation can be enhanced."
"It could be more flexible, but it's already a good solution for the designer."
"They should add more information about functionality."
"Technical support is very slow to respond and they need to be quicker in getting back to clients when problems arise."
"The solution should be able to support Docker. This would help make scalability easier."
"While the platform is good and it has a lot of options, I would like to see more alternative features in future versions such as connectors to IDM. Currently, they have only ADFS and Okta."
"Some issues with AgilePoint's design, AI and UX are some of the major problems we deal with when handling our company's business models or processes."
"Integrations and customizations should be improved in AgilePoint and other low-code solutions."
"Could have more pre-built integrations for pulling data from the wider Zoho ecosystem as well as other systems."
"I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. So some room for improvement as well for scalability."
"The user interface and the user experience should be improved."
"Though the pricing level is low compared to other products in the market, I suggest they allow portal users to pay for the solution based on their requirements."
"One significant issue with Zoho Creator is the lack of backup when items are deleted, unlike CRM where backups are available."
"They should allow for more UI customization."
"I am concerned that Zoho Creator does not have good integration capabilities, as it has a lot of API limits."
"The product needs to improve stability and scalability. We faced issues with bugs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding the price, licensing, and maintenance, Automation Anywhere provides its customers with its best and affordable value."
"The cost can be reduced a little for users."
"When you compare the cost of Automation Anywhere with UiPath and Blue Prism, those others are much less. Licensing-wise, UiPath wins the deal."
"AA comes at a more affordable price than the other tools."
"Based on what I've heard, it's costly, but I don't know much about its pricing."
"We were paying approximately $30,000 for a year license."
"It is affordable for us."
"We were required to purchase licenses and bot runners, which determined the permissible run times for the bots."
"I think the price is reasonable."
"I believe the pricing has changed recently. We had purchased one license per server, and it was about $2,000. It was a one-time payment. It's possible that they have recently implemented a new cost structure and now have yearly subscriptions."
"It is more cost-effective than local tools."
"Price-wise, AgilePoint is a cheap tool and a standard application for running analytics in an IT environment."
"The tool's pricing is flexible."
"Zoho Creator's price is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"Zoho Creator started at 800 rupees, about $10 per month."
"I rate the solution an eight out of ten for pricing since it is really cheap."
"The Enterprise version costs INR 1500 per month."
"We would prefer it if the price went down drastically."
"Zoho Creator is the cheapest option in the market right now that can deliver this level of quality."
"Anyone can start using the solution with less than 15 to 30 dollars a month per user. It is worth the money."
