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.

Leading-edge NLP capabilities, efficient training of machine learning models, and the automation saves us significant time
The machine learning capability is good. The algorithm helps us to get the right data with less training effort. The technology seems to be a little bit ahead of the standard NLP software. They use more pattern recognition, rather than basing everything on reading static text. The problem with relying on an unchanging text is that it can depend on things such as the formatting, and where things appear within a document. This solution can process complex formats, which is helpful for us because we get a lot of PDFs and they come in many different formats. As an example, a carrier might include a list of their rates in a table, whereas a different carrier will write their rates into a paragraph, and yet another will put them into some sort of graphic. If you only capture text then you will only capture part of that data. Pattern recognition ultimately helps us to circumvent the problems in dealing with format variability in documents and allows us to capture the right data. When it comes to predicting what it is that a document needs manual intervention, CMR Plus does it pretty well. They have a QA cycle that is usually able to highlight such data. The content recognition ability, in terms of giving us only the data that we need and nothing else, is pretty good. It has a positive effect on our efficiency and by extension, it impacts our infrastructure costs.

Automation has transformed invoice extraction and has reduced manual processing time dramatically
When it comes to improvements in UiPath IXP, there is a challenge with different languages, particularly Arabic invoices or handwritten ones, where there is some mismatch or difference in extraction. This could be improved. For instance, if there is a "Z" available on the screen, it may be identified as "2." Improvements in these two areas from the extraction point of view are necessary, along with considerations regarding pricing levels. In terms of support, UiPath is performing very well. Whenever we require assistance from UiPath, it has been positive. However, I would suggest that there is room for improvement in identifying complex different layout invoices, particularly for handwritten text, since there is potential for improvement in that area.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We are measuring ROI through quality: Reducing errors, saving time, and saving money."
"The benefits include a reduction in tedious tasks and manual handling of tasks and time savings."
"My experience with the deployment of the solution is positive; it's fast, and we have not encountered any problems related to that."
"Business users utilize Bot Insight dashboards to get analysis."
"Document automation has indeed been beneficial in handling large volumes of documents in our organization, where we process product-related data sheets that range from 80 to 120 pages, efficiently extracting data that would take a human several hours to read manually."
"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."
"Our organization used to have a process which took five business days to do: our monthly pricing update. This was a very manual process. Our very first bot built was to automate this process. Now, the bot runs in the background every month and the process takes less than a day to run."
"Automation Anywhere can grow alongside our automation needs."
"Pattern recognition ultimately helps us to circumvent the problems in dealing with format variability in documents and allows us to capture the right data."
"The automation provided by this solution has saved us a lot of time."
"This product has helped to boost our overall efficiency and performance, giving us the ability to automate many manual tasks and collect the right data for our analytics so we can serve our clients more effectively."
"The scalability it offers is truly exceptional, making it arguably the best in the market."
"For me, the most valuable aspects of UiPath Document Understanding are its time efficiency and minimal human intervention."
"It shortens the time of extracting data by 70 to 80%."
"Recently, they have introduced GenAI, which allows us to extract documents even faster and without hurdles."
"Invoice processing is the most valuable feature. Most of my customers use Document Understanding for invoice processing. That's one of the most common use cases. Typically, each customer starts their RPA journey with the finance department because that's the area where you can see the most benefit."
"UiPath Document Understanding cuts down a lot of order processing time and agents' time, saving both human effort, which in turn translates to better cost efficiency."
"The entity-level extraction is very good. The workflow is also very good."
"UiPath enables us to automate manual tasks and duplicate them easily. The processes are highly accurate."
 

Cons

"Automation Anywhere should implement this feature. They should also decrease their cost."
"While exporting a package, an option to de-select all the depending/referenced files should be available. Currently, it only allows for selecting all the files. Also, the views should be re-sizable as they are currently a fixed width. This would enable to view long file names easily eliminating any chances of exporting the wrong file."
"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."
"Automation Anywhere (AA) has a lot of stability issues. It needs a lot of maintenance."
"We would like it to be more user-friendly."
"Operationally, there's room for improvement, especially in the area of high-availability and deployment."
"One day, there will be a message box saying that the application is down or not available on a weekend. The instructions will say read the information and click, "Okay." But a bot doesn't understand the instructions because it is not the IQ system."
"The customization feature should be made more user-friendly in order to enable the use of external reference components."
"It would be very helpful to have a simple and extensive training guide, or training model, to help learn how to work with the product."
"We would like to see the overall accuracy increase from approximately 70% to perhaps 85%."
"The signature and handwriting are a pain point for the OCR and have room for improvement."
"The extraction and classification process should be simplified."
"I encountered difficulties with UiPath Document Understanding in determining the appropriate OCR to use for certain files."
"Document Understanding would be improved with more AI platforms."
"They could work on the digitizing and classification of documents."
"UiPath Document Understanding has difficulty identifying handwritten documents, and there is room for improvement."
"The machine learning model needs improvement, as we receive more and more unstructured documents from clients that require a lot of manual validation."
"Its pricing can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere falls within a mid-range price point when compared to other RPA tools on the market."
"If we talk about the automation RPA. it definitely has worked very well for us. I'm talking about giving good savings, about more than 180 FTE savings, after implementing more than 200 plus bots. It has worked well. As an organization, it has supported us very well, and also for our customers."
"In terms of pricing, this is a good product."
"It is not cheap, with costs ranging between 700 to 800 dollars per month. While Power Automate is cheaper at 15 dollars per month, Automation Anywhere offers superior features, user-friendliness, and smoothness."
"We are interested in saving manual engineer man-hours. So far, we have saved $100,000."
"We are not receiving the right information about their features, e.g. Automation Anywhere University, or anything that they are selling. They need to improve their documentation."
"It is expensive. Automation Anywhere has reduced the price slightly, as we have grown. However, the price is still excessive enough that we are engaged in PoCs on other tools."
"I really enjoy the pricing options with Automation Anywhere, as they are able to flex their ability to adapt to the needs of the customer really well."
"The pricing is really good, and it's based on usage."
"UiPath Document Understanding compared to the competitors is high."
"I have only been using its free version."
"UiPath has a higher upfront cost, but its Document Understanding feature is not a significant additional expense compared to the overall platform."
"It's expensive, but you can reduce the price per license by getting more licenses. Overall, the pricing is okay."
"For the licensing part, in our company, we initially started off with a monthly plan, but yearly plans are also there. Cost-wise, UiPath Document Understanding is good since it provides flexibility in its pricing."
"UiPath Document Understanding carries a premium price tag, but its current technological capabilities may not yet fully justify the cost."
"UiPath's pricing model is complex and based on AI units, which are consumed during model training and use."
"I do not know about its price, but for large organizations, UiPath is cheap, whereas, for small organizations, UiPath is high. For example, if 500 licenses are needed for one company, UiPath is cheap. If only 5 licenses are required, UiPath is costly."
