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.

With an easy initial setup phase in place, the tool needs to provide functionalities like web scraping to users

It is a very scalable solution. In ElectroNeek, you can build your project in modular programming or with the use of sub-programs. You can have a lot of sub-programs that make up a whole project. If you don't wanna use the drag-and-drop activities, you can use JavaScript or Python instead. So it's very useful when you are working with things such as SPS. Actually, you can write scripts to support all the product functionalities with Python and manage the product's functions. You will find a company named Apollo Studios on the website of ElectroNeek. I think they are one of the best companies in South Africa that entered into a partnership with ElectroNeek.

President and COO at a computer software company with 51-200 employees

Good data ingestion and classification capabilities, supports various media types and formats, and the interface is easy to use

Currently, we're still using version 2-7-2, and now they're about to do the beta release on their version 2021. In this coming version, we expect that some of our issues will be fixed. We've had challenges in classification tasks where similar documents were flagged as multiple matches. The system would identify them and say, "Hey, I think I've got multiple matches. It could either be this one or that one." Because of that, it required us to instruct the system to either leave it unclassified, or we had to halt the process for somebody to look at it. With the new version for 2021, they have changed the paradigm. As it is now, we're using something called a form type, where pages within the document are referenced using a specific page number. For example, in a ten-page document, you might refer to information specifically on the first or fifth page. In the new paradigm, there is a first, middle, and last page concept, as opposed to having the different form types with all of the different pages. What they're telling me is that it's going to make the classification more accurate. Just because the first page of two different documents looks the same, they will not be considered duplicates. Having multiple points of reference will now allow it to better distinguish them. The other area we have had challenges with is table extractions, where if the data headers were not defined, or the tables did not have descriptions for the columns. My understanding is that in the 2021 version, they've now shown that they're handling that. Again, we don't have it and haven't been able to test it, but it's coming. Technical support is definitely an area that they need improvement in, in terms of the front-line individuals.

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 excellent features."

"I am confident that we are saving several million dollars as a result."

"The main thing is the simple UI, easy to use commands, and it's very easy to learn compared to other tools in the market."

"By combining Automation Anywhere and Appian together, we have been able to build a bot that works with Appian workflows to manage all our employees."

"Workbench, which is a development tool, is very friendly. It is complete. Compared to Power Automate, Automation Anywhere is much more comprehensive and easy to understand."

"The best aspect is the user interface. It is very user-friendly and snappy, responding quickly compared to other available tools. It is easy to learn, and the community support is good for asking questions and getting answers."

"Automation Anywhere is frequently releasing new features to their product. I find this amazing as they provide frequent product updates, introducing new features to the frameworks and similar aspects."

"I realized that Automation Anywhere is much easier, more reliable, and has value for money with good and vast customer support."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"ElectroNeek was extremely easy to use, especially its UI was easy to navigate with limited training."

"We find the OCR feature very valuable, due to the corrector recognition that it provides; this is very useful for document processing."

"It's a very stable product."

"We have found that it brings more efficiency and effectiveness to routine tasks."

"The solution is user-friendly with a really good UI and ID."

"The cost is the best thing about ElectroNeek."

"The product's initial setup phase was easy."

"The most valuable feature is the price."

More ElectroNeek pros

"The user interface is easy to use, and the flexibility is noteworthy."

"So now we're doing stuff that takes literally minutes, or even sometimes seconds, and we've reduced the labor by a hundredfold."

"Lexicons where the key vocabulary can be inputted it is very helpful."

"There are many options and customizations that you can make to each individual extractor that allows you to tweak it for exactly what you need."

"In certain types of jobs, I would estimate that using Grooper saves us 70% of the time it normally takes to complete it."

"Grooper processes difficult sorts of data and unstructured or semi-structured content very well. It's probably one of the better solutions I've seen compared to other solutions I've seen out there. It does a lot more things like segmentation extraction. It does it a lot better. Grooper has more focus on these types of freeform documents where other solutions are very generic and this is a little more elaborate in what they've done. I think they take it to the next level of extracting freeform data."

"Using Grooper has sped up our data entry process between two and eight times, depending on the exact process."

"With Grooper, the old archive of information can be obtained with the models we built."

Cons

"The main issue I identify is that the cost of the enterprise-scale license and add-ons can be a barrier for small businesses."

"The IQ Bot could use improvement."

"I'd love to see the ability to build web or mobile applications that are integrated with Automation Anywhere bots, so that a user can work on a web interface directly. Then, it can be linked to the Automation Anywhere bots in the background. They just hit a button, and all the data or information will be used by the bot to do some process in the back end."

"In A2019 the dependencies that are being downloaded take a longer time that should be reduced. Migration utility should be provided so we can easily migrate from lower versions to higher versions."

"The Control room audit logs should be moved to an archive for those that are more than six months old."

"There is an issue with security where users can see the values in the credential vault."

"Its pricing definitely needs to be more competitive. When licensing costs are high, we cannot use this tool for automation."

"The AISense recorder in Automation Anywhere needs improvement in resilience and OCR capabilities, particularly in comparison to UiPath's superior OCR functionality."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"I think that this solution could improve remote desktop interactions."

"When I wanted to use web scraping for tables in web applications, I found through online forums that such functionality or activity is currently not working as it shows."

"The integrating capability of the product needs to be improved, to ensure that it works with all systems involved in a process."

"It's not applicable to very large enterprises and for difficult work or more complex processes."

"ElectroNeek comes with three activities and we cannot add activities like we can with uiPADs."

"The solution works well with Google Chrome, but not with Microsoft Edge, which is the browser we use for automation."

"Its price could definitely be lower."

"The solution needs to improve its stability."

More ElectroNeek cons

"Grooper is new. It's new beta stuff, so we've had some issues, but that's understandable. Getting the beta product to more of a true release is where it needs improvement. I'm going through training now, so it's hard to judge what they have and don't have until I get through that training. Training is the main thing for me because I'm trying to learn and take things I've learned from other products and try to transfer that knowledge to this one."

"Technical support is definitely an area that they need improvement in, in terms of the front-line individuals."

"There are few bugs that my superior has posted in the Grooper exchange that concerned errors with the OCR."

"Grooper is new. It's new beta stuff, so we've had some issues, but that's understandable."

"They should have more sub-extractors or exclusion extractors so that the user does not have to make a parent data type."

"If Grooper could "sense" important fields on the document and auto-build extractors for them, that'd be really cool."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"It's cheaper than other similar solutions."

"We only deal in annual licenses. There are no pay-as-you-go licenses."

"Our annual licensing costs for the entire company are $100,000."

"The pricing is a bit higher."

"The cost of this solution is a little bit high, but it is worth the price."

"Automation Anywhere offers a subscription-based licensing model for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid deployments."

"I think it's $5,500 per license."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"It's very affordable and the licensing is billed on a yearly basis."

"My company has made a payment towards the purchase of a license from ElectorNeek."

"I believe we had a Silver Membership or something similar annually."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a seven."

"Its price could definitely be lower. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost to the standard licensing fees."

"I give the price an eight out of ten."

"Overall, their pricing is higher than the competitors, but they offer functionality that is otherwise not available."

"Know how many pages you will be needing to process, as the pricing is based on that."
