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.

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.

Sr Business Application Developer On Zoho Platform. at Tech Worriors
Unified accounting and inventory have empowered seamless projects and detailed financial insights
The most valuable features and capabilities of Zoho Books I have found include vendor management, customer management, accounting, invoicing, and inventory. Within Zoho Books, you can handle both accounting and inventory, covering all areas like purchase and sales. Almost all features are available, including bank reconciliation. Invoicing is also included in the accounting features. The sales section includes quotation, sales order, invoicing, packing, shipments, delivery note, delivery challans, invoicing, and payment received. The purchase section includes purchase orders, purchase received (GRN), bill, supplier invoices, and advance payment. All these features are available. You can communicate and send to the customers using it. It enables managing different statuses, scheduling recurring invoices, and customers can pay through direct online payment using Zoho Books direct invoices. Customers can log into their portal and see their own invoices.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Automation Anywhere has by far, provided one of the best and easiest solutions to implement RPA."
"The features of Automation Anywhere improve my company by making deployment and maintenance of our automations a smoother process overall."
"In finance, it has helped us deliver on productivity and provided us with FTE savings."
"Within one minute we can view more than one thousand students and their results."
"I have some metrics at the top of my head, but they're a little abstract. Accomplishing what we've done so far with the bots in production would take 40,000. It's not a direct correlation of full-time employees because that's all work that would not have gotten done because they don't have time for that kind of nitty-gritty work."
"We're finding time savings as a benefit. One example would be a customer service rep who might get a question about an order, and it's usually through email. It can take a good three to seven business days to answer a customer's question about their order. When we automate it, it takes hours, if not minutes."
"In the age of agentic AI, it's allowing us to imagine what comes next."
"In general, when you set up the cloud solution, it's very, very easy."
"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."
"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."
"Since we have started with it, we have saved over 400 hours of human intervention and human processing."
"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."
"Having used eight accounting software systems, I consider this one among my favorites."
"The major benefit I've seen from Zoho Books is its positive impact on saving time around CRM and projects, CRM, bookkeeping, and projects as that works very efficiently."
"I have worked with multiple clients for Zoho Books, and they are completely satisfied with the implementation and customization automation we did."
"With Zoho Books, I have found the most valuable features that we don't need any reports because the reports get already generated based on the sales and purchases."
"Almost all the features are there, and they have different plans with lots of features."
 

Cons

"The analytical dashboard in the Control Room could use some improvement."
"I would like to have the ability to work on a remote desktop connection, run the recording on it and use all commands."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved in terms of complex logic implementation."
"We need more commands for PDF integration to make it more flexible."
"Automation Anywhere is unable to connect to the database directly. What we are doing now is directly writing the PL/SQL scripts and trying to push the data from the database into Automation Anywhere. This feature is available in UiPath, but not in Automation Anywhere."
"There are a lot of issues in the tool. There are a lot of breakdowns."
"There can be some options to connect to the database directly where we should be able to add some data."
"We want to have greater control on deciding when we want to upgrade to a newer version"
"The pricing, in some instances, is an area for improvement."
"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."
"They have pretty much accommodated every special request I have had. The only thing that I can think of improving is reverse prospecting."
"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 user interface of Zoho Books is frustrating when compared to QuickBooks or other alternatives."
"In terms of improvement, there are two things which they are going to improve, but they have dedicated products for them."
"They can improve their approval process and access matrix in Zoho Books."
"Areas of Zoho Books that could be improved or enhanced include the requirements for data size, as sometimes there is too much data."
"I do not have any challenges within Zoho Books, but sometimes if you want to change the currencies for customers, that can be a bit tricky, especially if you want to issue different invoices in different currencies, maybe even for the same customer, that's the only thing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our annual licensing costs for the entire company are $100,000."
"Considering the cost, it is a bit high, but worth the price because the output accuracy is high."
"There is a free trial so that they can get an overview, and there are different licenses that are very affordable and can suit every business model."
"In terms of monetary savings, we automated a bot in three days that has saved us $30,000 in costs."
"On a scale of one to ten with ten being the most expensive, I rate the price of Automation Anywhere an eight out of ten."
"It is fantastic. It has been great. It is perfectly priced for the quality received. When paying for quality, that is exactly what you get."
"The price for Automation Anywhere is reasonable."
"The solution itself is free unless we want to add the support option but we have to pay for the bots we use."
"The pricing is generally good, although we encountered a pricing dilemma with one customer."
"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."
"The pricing has been negotiable. It is not just one price. We are able to negotiate the price, which is great."
