Featured Reviews

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.

Assistant Manager at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Automation has transformed payables and receivables but still requires manual handling of exceptions
A specific example of a test case that failed during UAT for HighRadius Accounts Payable relates to the cash applications process when receiving payments from customers. We have two types of customer or vendor payments: miscellaneous payments and customer or vendor direct payments. Direct payments need to be applied to customer or vendor invoices, and those cases passed as expected. However, miscellaneous payments need to be posted to the journal entry rather than customer or vendor invoices. HighRadius Accounts Payable lacks the capability to handle these cases, so manual intervention is needed for them. HighRadius Accounts Payable can be improved in cases where once payments are loaded into the system, users can easily filter exceptions where the system is unable to perform the work. Users can then focus on those cases, perform cross-checks and double-checks, and verify that the payments are applied correctly. This method would improve accounts payable processes. An improvement is needed when we receive payments that need to be tagged to multiple vendors or multiple customers. We can add multiple vendors or customers in one instance, but if we receive the same scenario in the future, we must add multiple vendors and customers into HighRadius again. This process needs improvement from HighRadius.
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

"Even a non-IT or business user can just look at the bot language and understand what the bot is doing, and that's the easy part."
"Within less time than it used to take, we can automate a complete Apex task."
"In human resources, we created several core SAP systems so that the basic users in human resources can reduce redundancies by 10 times with very little cost."
"From what I have seen with the IQ Bot, it is very impressive and I think it is going to solve a lot of problems that we face right now."
"Object cloning with an option to enter wildcard selection was very useful when working in a web application that generated dynamic HTML content."
"Since it has capabilities to integrate with third-party applications easily, it makes the life of an automation engineer very easy."
"I find the terminal emulator feature very valuable, particularly in how it interacts with IBM mainframe automation."
"Automation Anywhere has been a boon for our organization because the tedious task that used to be hectic and made us remain seated for hours is now done with a single click."
"Since switching to HighRadius Accounts Payable, I can share that before, we could only process 30 items in Siebel because of the lags, but in HighRadius Accounts Payable, we can process 60 items or deduction claims."
"HighRadius Accounts Payable has positively impacted my organization mainly through cost efficiency, as the time for doing work from external sources was reduced drastically and the costs were also reduced, allowing the creation of new opportunities in the company, as some positions that were previously separated to do regular tasks became more interactive."
"HighRadius Accounts Payable has significantly reduced the manual work and workload we have had because we used to manually reconcile cash, with accountants applying receipts manually, and that process has been largely eliminated due to automation, providing us with room to carry out other value-adding processes."
"HighRadius Accounts Payable has positively impacted our organization, as we reduced 8 to 9 team members because the system can automatically handle accounts receivable and accounts payable processes, saving time and reducing the need for human intervention to only exception cases."
"We have increased collections by more than 20 to 30 percent due to using HighRadius Accounts Payable, and regarding the percentage of hours, we have saved about one to two hours per week due to this tool."
"It's a top-tier upgrade for the finance department and does extend into full ERP."
"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 accuracy of accounting has improved by nearly 95%, and we save about three days of manual effort to prepare financial statements."
"The reporting capabilities stood out for me because we could generate required reports from Sage Intacct, including all financial statements needed for consolidation and various reconciliations with the parent company and the subsidiary."
"Every client we have is very satisfied with the product."
"I have seen an astronomical return on investment with Sage Intacct, particularly regarding time saved."
"Sage Intacct is a great app that makes our work much easier."
"Sage Intacct has impacted my organization positively as it improves on a regular basis whenever I find glitches."
 

Cons

"It is very difficult to create and automate timetables because they are modal, and it would be helpful if the bot could assist us with this."
"My current and previous companies have had stability issues."
"The tools are fundamentally solid. However, when I think of self-healing, such as automation with a new prompt or a new Windows patch occurring, being able to handle those kinds of things on top of what Automation Anywhere already does and that automatically click through and do the reboots that are necessary to just have a clean run would be ideal."
"One way Automation Anywhere can be improved is in ticketing."
"In the learning track, I was looking at the latest feature which is coming in A2019, which is very nice, because it is a web-based. So, we can do our development while sitting from anywhere. We don't need any type of installation. It's a web-based. Nowadays, everyone has the Internet."
"After implementing, I have seen that some customers are not getting ROI from that, so they are stepping back from using Automation Anywhere."
"I would like more with OCR and data capture."
"They could improve the environmental stabilizing issues. There are a lot of environmental issues when rolling over from one environment to another, higher environment. This is the one thing they definitely need to look into."
"I think HighRadius Accounts Payable can be improved in the cut-off time or the cut-off timing because I think they are linked to the SAP system, so we have a cut-off time in HighRadius Accounts Payable when clearing a deduction."
"HighRadius Accounts Payable lacks the capability to handle miscellaneous payments that need to be posted to the journal entry rather than customer or vendor invoices, so manual intervention is needed for them."
"Customer support is not good; initially, we had support directed to Poland, but we recently moved to the HighRadius Accounts Payable team, which is a bit better."
"If HighRadius Accounts Payable could utilize AI better, I would say that having communication with other systems like Microsoft or SAP would be beneficial."
"The area where I would like to see significant improvement is in stock management."
"While we can create, post, and manage general entries, we face a limitation in allocating multiple JL accounts."
"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."
"The page expires really fast if I have idle time or am working on something else while finding an amount or looking at an invoice."
"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."
"I believe data migration could be improved in Sage Intacct to save time and to minimize working with Excel when dealing with data migration."
"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."
"In the next release, I would like to see greater integration with the RPA software that's been created."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing cost of Automation Anywhere is better than UiPath and Blue Prism."
"The cost is affordable, which makes an easy barrier to entry for the RPA market."
"If we count the integrations that we have done with Appian, which is where a lot of our savings is from, we are well over a million dollars in savings. This is from only doing development for about a year and a half."
"We have saved customers 400% in terms of time saved by implementing this product."
"We brought onshore a lot of what we were doing offshore, saving our company close to $20 million."
"There may be room for the product to be more competitively priced to excel in the market."
"I am not sure about the costs, but two Bot Runners and four Bot Creators may cost approximately 1CR."
"We are currently negotiating a contract. Depending upon that, we will definitely look at increasing usage."
Information not available
"Sage is on the higher end of pricing."
"Compared to other ERP systems on the market, it offers competitive and reasonable pricing."
