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.

Manager Of Global Procurement at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Centralized contract repository has improved visibility and supports detailed spend analysis
Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) could be improved in the area of catering more from a CLM perspective. Unlike vendors in this area like Ariba, Coupa, Icertis, and Ivalua, which also provide the sourcing side—RFX, RFP, RFI, auction—through the tool, that area within Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is lacking. I would be happy to see those modules well-placed and well-balanced based on how other competitors are catering to that requirement. I would also like to see various enhancements within the dashboard and customization based on client and customer requirements. That is something that I would like to see more within the dashboard and the tool. If I had to pick one area where Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) could be improved, it would be better slice-and-dice options within the dashboard. That is something that is very important and critical for me. I chose 8 out of 10 because there are certain areas where Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) would need to look at what their competitors are doing. CLM is a very hot area for procurement because it is used by direct and indirect procurement folks. Based on those requirements, use cases, and especially based on what clients need and how their competitors are performing, I think there is room for improvement on the enhancement side, improving the overall customer experience on the dashboard, having more layouts, and having the option to slice and dice the spend and the orders. It would also be good to have different charts and infographics based on the contracts that have been uploaded, which provides a picture to the procurement person. For example, when they are doing a renewal or want to work with the same vendor, it provides some sort of ammunition to make an informed decision and ensure that the data coming out of the tool represents factual insights. This will help drive savings, better outcomes with the supplier, and better stakeholder engagement. It is all linked to how the tool can be more efficient and effective.
Sakshi Thakur - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Manager at a legal firm with 1,001-5,000 employees
Automation has transformed complex contract lifecycles and now supports high-volume workflows
The only drawback of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is that it does not work for small-scale business areas because I have implemented it for one customer with four or five pages of templates and three to four record types. For that small business, Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) does not work well because it is a bit complicated. Sometimes all customers need is a click of a button to go in and do things, and Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is a bit complicated for such kinds of businesses. There are definitely areas where Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) could be easier to use for smaller businesses, particularly making processes more streamlined and user-friendly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What Automation Anywhere is offering is amazing from a back-end office accounting standpoint."
"We have automated over 2000 man-hours."
"This product has helped us a lot by improving and growing the business in different domains."
"Automation Anywhere is definitely scalable in several ways; it's easy and accessible, it's designed the best — almost perfect."
"We are using it to backfill a lot of our resources who are retiring, so we are hiring less people as we go."
"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."
"Learning Automation Anywhere prepares our students for a better future because the future belongs to RPA Automation."
"Automation Anywhere is a ten out of ten."
"Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has helped us realize what we were lacking and helped us choose a replacement vendor that was better suited to our needs."
"Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) makes it easier to share links within our teams by providing a centralized contract repository, which I need in the global procurement area where I work on various contracts: mid-size contracts, lower-hanging fruit contracts, and the big-ticket contracts."
"Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Managment (CLM) has positively impacted my client organizations by massively reducing contract authoring, with some contracts that used to take three months to execute now being reduced from months down to hours, which has improved client satisfaction, increased deal velocity, and allowed their legal teams to focus on other tasks outside of contracting, thereby freeing up time for the legal departments."
"Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has positively impacted my organization by improving the lifecycle of contract reviews and approvals, which may have saved some time for the legal team to do other work."
"We have been working with Agiloft Contract Management Suite for the past 6 months and have found it an extremely useful and user friendly solution to our contract management challenge."
"Overall, I think Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Managment (CLM) is a strong contract management platform, particularly for organizations with great volume, many customers, and numerous suppliers."
"It is obvious to me that Agiloft can handle much more than contract management, as the specific requirements that were not part of Agiloft's initial configuration were implemented seamlessly."
"For me, Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Managment (CLM) is not just an archive; it is a control and follow-up tool that improves collaboration, provides reliable information, and supports contract administration and decision making."
"Because of these processes, the customer can send out thousands of contracts in one go instead of creating them and having a lot of people appointed to do this job, and it is a one-person job now."
"Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has positively impacted my organization or my work by making the whole contract process much faster and much more organized."
"In terms of overall efficiency, our working efficiency has improved by 60% primarily because the number of errors has drastically reduced with the inbuilt AI capabilities of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) and its integration."
"Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has positively impacted my organization as it is faster compared to others."
"After they shifted from manual work to automation, their sales, business, and revenue have all increased."
"Globally, the overall time to contract is now seven to ten days, and this has been greatly appreciated by our Legal Ops head."
"Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has positively impacted my organization by making the contract lifecycle easier for customers when quotes get created."
"By using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), the time it takes to manage a contract, from contract creation to signature, is significantly reduced."
 

Cons

"When you are implementing it initially, it's challenging as there's a lot of change management."
"Automation Anywhere is headed in the right direction but they still have a good way to go."
"When I post questions, I seldom get answers fast, and when I do, there are inconsistencies with the existing documentation."
"I would like to see better and more technical use cases for the AI features, showing how to build them instead of repeated general examples."
"There is still a way to go for Automation Anywhere where we can see improvement. Mostly, we want to see more artificial intelligence and machine learning. Now, I can see only this mostly in the IQ Bot where we construct the data from PDFs. I also want to see more features where we can use the artificial intelligence in automating tasks as well."
"The A2019 in early releases had been quite unstable to our experience."
"Excel functionalities, the macro interface can be improved in the next release of RPA platform Automation Anywhere."
"One key feature we are looking for from Automation Anywhere is the need for a fully evolved CI/CD pipeline approach within our IT organization, given that we manage multiple applications."
"I feel Agiloft is a little bit less user-friendly than Conga."
"I feel there are always opportunities to improve Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Managment (CLM)."
"There are many improvement points for Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM)."
"Agiloft Contract Lifecycle Managment (CLM) is very difficult to set rules and to follow based on contract type, as the mapping and the level of tech and coding that is needed for that requires developer skills."
"Every software can improve, so better integration with the Oracle financial system and out-of-the-box integrations would certainly add a lot more value, particularly for procurement and sales contracts."
"One possible area of improvement would be reporting."
"If there is an area for improvement, it would be in the mobile aspect."
"One area of improvement I would suggest Agiloft to focus on would be how users interact with attachments to records."
"I have noticed there are very few help articles and knowledge-based documents available, making it a bit tricky for new users to onboard onto the platform."
"Template management could be more user-friendly."
"I chose a rating of seven out of ten because there are many areas for improvement for Conga; it is not a complete solution yet."
"The first is ease of configuration. Some advanced workflows and business rules can be complex to set up and maintain, especially for organizations with unique contract processes."
"I have not seen a return on investment from Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), as it was a waste of time; I spent a long time trying to get it to work, and it was not adopted by the users, ultimately failing to live up to what I had promised to the business."
"I have not used Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) deeply, but I know that document generation still has some improvements that need to be implemented."
"The user interface can sometimes feel complex for new users and may require additional training."
"They are somewhat reliable, but they are not completely reliable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"IQ Bots are very costly. It's not a sustainable bot for us as of now. We will look for better, alternate options for that."
"Our costs are approximately between $5,000 to $10,000 per license."
"Automation Anywhere is cheaper than UiPath and Blue Prism. From a market point of view, Automation Anywhere is reasonable. Any organization can adopt Automation Anywhere."
"We would like them to change the license model of charging per bot."
"The pricing for Automation Anywhere is reasonable."
"In the Indian market, I feel that for mid-size companies, such as ourselves, that having multiple bots costs a lot. If Automation Anywhere wants to expand in the Indian market, they will need to look at their pricing."
"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."
"The pricing is fair. My company is part of a big organization, so the pricing is very advantageous."
