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.

Supports long-running asynchronous processes effectively but has not evolved much in recent years
I think Camunda is focusing too much on the SaaS offering right now and not much on improving and developing the product itself. I did not see any innovations on that aspect, especially for the open-source version. I was making some tests recently and the tool seemed pretty much the same as it was three or four years ago. Since they made the move to cloud deployment in a more SaaS-oriented way, they do not invest too much in the community version. To be honest, it did not change much from the Activiti initial version. Activiti was pretty much what Camunda is today. They invested a lot on Zeebe and made it the engine for their SaaS cloud version. Camunda itself, the embedded engine, did not evolve too much. They could invest more on that.

Works well, but its interface should be a bit more user-friendly
We use it for our process flows and levels of approvals, but I am not managing it directly Its performance, stability, and security are fine. Its interface should be a bit more user-friendly. I have been using this solution for close to a year. It is stable. It is easy to scale. We currently…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The integration is helpful. We have quite a few use cases where we've integrated with Microsoft tools and local record systems, such as SAP and Vertex AI."
"Automation Anywhere is a tool that I love! I am quite happy using this tool and there are no features or commands that I have found to be missing that should be added."
"From a developer perspective, the user interface is user-friendly and easy to use."
"We are using Automation Anywhere for our leave approval process. We used to have three FTEs on the day shift working on this process. Now, we only have one FTE working on the leave approval process. The bot supports everything else in the process. With this bot, we are saving the cost of two FTEs."
"The benefit of using Automation Anywhere is the efficiency of operations and speed."
"It's a perfect product; it's made my life very easy and a lot of people's lives very easy, removing hectic, repetitive, boring work and giving people free time to do the work they really want to do."
"For me, the best feature of Automation Anywhere is that it is totally cloud-based. We do not need to set up anything in VMs or other machines. It can directly work on the cloud."
"It has allowed us to generate additional revenue without having to hire additional people."
"We are very strongly recommending Camunda BPM; it is good, it is easy, the community is good, and there is a lot of support if you are stuck anywhere."
"The integration with almost any language, product, and even human tasks, is valuable. It's very seamless to integrate into existing systems. It doesn't require you to rewrite a lot of your existing system. That's where it really stands out."
"Camunda is the best among similar solutions like JBPM and Activiti."
"The documentation and all that they have done is just splendid."
"For an internal project, this is a solution that you can install and have up and running quite quickly."
"For me, it is a complete solution at this time."
"I am not aware of any better provider for orchestration of complex business processes."
"We are system integrators, and the value of Camunda for us is that it's easy to integrate into the products and applications we provide for our customers."
"What I like most is the seamlessness of the workflow capabilities."
"Its performance, stability, and security are fine."
 

Cons

"In the last two years, with the help of IQ Bot, and what I learned today about this Attended Automation 2.0, I think they are addressing vital key challenges that we have faced so far."
"It is good for standard procedures with an SOP. For those, it works well. But there are processes that are tricky and need human intervention and intelligence. In those cases, the process gets stuck."
"More and more innovation is going on, and they'll have to keep adding features to keep up with the market. They have generative AI on their platform, but that's a new part. They are working on it. It's not 100 percent foolproof, but eventually it will get better. They need to work on their AI capabilities."
"Sometimes the tool is timing out, which would be a good thing to have resolved."
"Automation Anywhere is a fantastic platform, but I rate it nine because I see one scope of improvement."
"It's somewhat pricier than some of the other tools that we've used, and the breakout between the different applications is also somewhat costly."
"IQ Bot is pretty good, but we can only run a maximum 150 documents."
"Automation Anywhere could enhance its services by establishing a local office in our region to provide better support."
"The latest feature is Process OS. The idea is very good, but it still needs more elaboration on how it operates and how it will help the business and technical aspects."
"It lacks some preset features and configurations which would make it more plug-and-play for customers."
"I would like to have a feature for audit logging, audit logs and audit log management. And some history of use for the audit logs."
"The migration strategy needs to be improved."
"There is some confusion when deploying new models because you have to explicitly specify only the new model."
"There should be a multi-tenant solution for the platform where it supports multiple organizations on one platform instead of having to spin up multiple clusters for each organization. There should be an easy way to integrate different departments into one platform without having to operate multiple platforms. The operations should be easier with the enterprise solution. It should not create more overhead for the operations people."
"I would also like a very easy to use form builder."
"Support is an area that is in need of improvement."
"This solution only supports basic text, but we would like to be able to insert components such as rich text, graphs, charts, pictures, and other objects."
"Its interface should be a bit more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They're very flexible around pricing and licensing."
"The pricing model can be a bit more flexible."
"Our pricing a year ago was $600 per license."
"In terms of pricing, this is a good product."
"Our annual licensing costs are around $100,000 a year."
"Automation Anywhere is expensive, making it suitable only for enterprise organizations."
"The solution is costly and the licensing is very confusing."
"We purchase on a bot basis. Our costs are approximately $5,000."
"We use the open-source version, which can be used at no cost."
"We have an annual subscription to this solution."
"Camunda is much cheaper."
"Camunda is a cheaply priced product, making it one of its major USPs."
"Its price is decent. Everything is included in the license. The Community version is also good to start with. We are using the Community version."
"We pay for the license of this solution annually."
"While the license isn't budget-friendly, careful consideration and calculated planning for a significant number of licenses can make it more cost-effective."
"Camunda's pricing is good."
"We have a yearly license."
