Nadeem K. - PeerSpot reviewer
Rpa Developer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Automation has freed teams from repetitive finance and supply tasks and supports global operations
In the current organization, we had trouble initially because I think the documentation and support could be better than what it is now. This is one difference between Automation Anywhere and other RPA tools such as UiPath. In UiPath, if you have an issue, you go to the UiPath website and search for it, and you get lots of help materials. In Automation Anywhere, you do not get exactly what you are looking for. You get a very large number of results when you search for something, and from this large result set, you have to filter out what you need, or only partial information will be available. User handbooks are available for each product. In that regard, I would say Automation Anywhere is lagging compared to other RPA tools. It is difficult to get hold of their customer support team. I want to clarify that it is not a matter of us building logic on Automation Anywhere and it failing. When it is a product-related issue, they have to give us support because we only know how to develop within Automation Anywhere. We do not know how to fix Automation Anywhere itself. Whenever we have an issue, trying to get in touch with them always takes three to four business days.

Senior Director, Payroll and Assistant Treasurer at a construction company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Has enabled us to automate vendor EPAY payments and grow from limited transactions to a multi-million dollar program.
The automated payment framework is satisfactory, and we have not had any issues with the processing of payments. The impact has been that it increased our onboarding of vendors to the program, enabling us to grow tremendously. With the traditional E-Pay program before working with Boost Intercept, we struggled to add vendors and grow the program but with Boost Intercept straight through processing vendors are higher adopters of the program. Another reason we are able to onboard more vendors is that with Boost Intercept we can negotiate what are termed proprietary rates. We are able to negotiate lower rates with several of our large vendors which is not an option with traditional Epay. This has been a key part of the program's success.
Sushant S - PeerSpot reviewer
Sage Intacct Technical Consultant at a manufacturing company with 11-50 employees
Has reduced manual effort through customization and streamlined API-based integrations
The best features Sage Intacct offers include the import functionality, support for customization, and the platform that allows me to modify whatever I want. The triggers and reports are built very well and user-friendly, so I can modify this, and this is one of the best features it provides. The import functionality helps because once I download the template from Sage Intacct, I can fill out the specific columns with the data that I need to import into the system, and it will do the work instead of adding those details manually. The platform services allow me to add functionalities such as sending an email once I generate any AP bill or approve vendors. Additionally, I can call external API services or Sage Intacct API to validate those fields, which is good for users. Sage Intacct has positively impacted my organization through improved collaboration and saved time. I can import data easily, and since it is user-friendly, I encounter fewer errors. For example, the work I used to do in one or two days now gets completed in one or two hours.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Working with the Automation Anywhere application is very easy in our environment."
"My understanding is that the initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"With the help of Bot, it has increased the productivity of the current process and we do not need to spend more time on error resolution and rectification."
"AA helped our clients to achieve their goals faster and more efficiently, also reaching ROI very quickly."
"When this technology first came to market, I thought it was about robotic things, which we cannot do, however, when I started to learn about Automation Anywhere, it's completely different; it's a user friendly tool with drag and drop commands and a person just needs technical, logical thinking."
"We have multiple bots running. It saves time. If manual invoice processing in SAP takes two to three hours on a daily basis, a bot can do the same job in half an hour. We are saving more than 70% of the time."
"There are instances where use cases and opportunities have arisen as a result of having Automation Anywhere and RPA in place that have come about through very casual conversations and have actually resulted in increased revenue opportunities that we didn't realize."
"It is very user-friendly. The AI capability that nowadays I am seeing in Automation Anywhere is very good. They have plug-and-play AI solutions."
"The impact has been that it increased our onboarding of vendors to the program, enabling us to grow tremendously."
"I just like that Boost is hands-off. That's the biggest thing for me."
"Their customer service is excellent. The automation streamlines the process for supplier success cards."
"As far as credit card processors or third-party credit card payment issuers go, they are fairly easy to work with. People we work with tend to be responsive when we have concerns or questions."
"The value we get from Boost is that we don't need to run credit cards on our network. They consolidate the cash and give it to us."
"The Boost Intercept service is responsive and provides excellent on-the-spot communication, invaluable for addressing my numerous questions."
"Since we have started with it, we have saved over 400 hours of human intervention and human processing."
"We also use some of the other Sage solutions and for the most part, everything was integrated in the manner that I found beneficial."
"I would strongly recommend any entity that has a need for software that is easily implementable and that's already structured to use the services."
"The best features Sage Intacct offers are automated inter-company reconciliation and the fixed asset module, which is extremely useful as well."
"Sage Intacct has positively impacted our organization by being flexible and easy to use; everyone working on Sage Intacct has an accounting background, and they are able to use it with minimal training because of its user-friendly interface."
"The best features Sage Intacct offers include the import functionality, support for customization, and the platform that allows me to modify whatever I want."
"Sage Intacct has impacted my organization positively as it improves on a regular basis whenever I find glitches."
"The product is easy to use."
"Sage Intacct is a great app that makes our work much easier."
 

Cons

"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."
"I feel the cost of licensing is very high for the A2019 version."
"We run these bots in multiple environments from staging to development to production. We find usually in the production environment when we run the bots for them to be stable for a week or two. After a week or two, we see some glitches here and there, though the application doesn't change much. This is one feature which I want Automation Anywhere to work on: Increasing stability."
"From an IT perspective, we had too many issues and headaches."
"The enterprise version is expensive for small businesses and individual users, which can pose a challenge."
"We would like a smoother process for moving bots and tasks between the different development environments, from development to testing to production. We find this to be pretty cumbersome to work through."
"Overall, I am pretty satisfied with Automation Anywhere. The UI is pretty straightforward. However, the customer service could be improved."
"Training is good and interactive but the final certification exam is very tough and it requires in-depth practical knowledge."
"Boost could add a dashboard to show who's paying us and when. We could see if there's an issue with payments and correct it. Currently, we need to wait for the file to come in or the customer to tell us about the issue."
"The pricing, in some instances, is an area for improvement."
"They have pretty much accommodated every special request I have had. The only thing that I can think of improving is reverse prospecting."
"If it was possible to have our payments go through Boost but have Boost initiate something like ACH payments, that would be great."
"It would be nice if Boost had a portal where you could log in and see the transactions. I'm not sure if they don't have one, but I suggest getting one."
"Their training is the biggest room for improvement, and their documentation can get very confusing."
"I see room for improvement in Sage Intacct, specifically regarding reporting, as it should be more versatile with the data; more add-on data would provide many more options, especially since API calls can be quite difficult."
"The area where I would like to see significant improvement is in stock management."
"The mobile integration was still lacking on that front."
"If I need to pay a bill, I do not have the option of updating multiple or thousands of bills at once; I have to manually mark each bill as paid, which is quite a headache."
"Sage Intacct can be improved because it is not always intuitive; there is a lot of money that goes into customization and reworking, and when they pilot new enhancements, they have an early adopter promo that can come with bugs."
"Sage Intacct is very strong overall, but if I had to suggest improvements, I would say the learning curve could be smoother for new users."
"The change order process in Sage Intacct could be smoother and easier, and I believe the ability to perform lien waivers and invoices in bulk, as well as improvements in inventory management, could enhance the system."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere University is pretty good. They make it available free for everyone."
"I would like them to have better license management."
"We have saved time and money using this solution."
"The setup cost for this is onetime and licensing is based on your choice of product."
"It's very good in terms of cost and pricing."
"I advise others that even as of right now, the setup cost and licensing cost to automate bots on Automation Anywhere is steep but it is worth the investment!"
"Cost is the biggest area in need of improvement for Automation Anywhere. Annually it's $250,000. That's what deterred us right away."
"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."
"The pricing is generally good, although we encountered a pricing dilemma with one customer."
"The pricing has been negotiable. It is not just one price. We are able to negotiate the price, which is great."
"We do not pay anything. As a supplier, we are receiving our payments through Boost. There is no fee for us to opt into it. The only fee is the credit card fee."
"It's reasonably priced, offering fixed pricing, which is quite fair."
"The price is comparable to other companies which offer similar products."
"Sage is on the higher end of pricing."
"Compared to other ERP systems on the market, it offers competitive and reasonable pricing."
