Venkat Sivaprakash - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Works at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
A scalable solution which is easy to install and use
I do not use the solution personally as I am not the end-user. It is merely one of the solutions that we offer to our customers. We act as consultants, solution providers. We have around 60 customers who are using the solution. I would, for sure, recommend the solution to others. I consider the profile of the project to be quite good at the moment. I rate Another Monday as a nine out of ten.

Global Automation Lead - Customer Operations at a energy/utilities company with 10,001+ employees
Helped us identify areas where frontline staff aren't following standard procedures or using unexpected systems, giving us better insight into our end users' workflows
To analyze and make sense of the data generated by Kryon process discovery can be a lot of effort. It's not as automatic as some might think. It really depends on how many processes you have and how actively you use them. But the scalability aspect isn't necessarily about deployment or technical maintenance. It's really about how you analyze and gain insights from the data gathering. I'd rate the scalability a seven out of ten because the solution has been scaling well for a long time. It's very easy to deploy. But getting value out of it at scale can be a challenge, just like with any deployment. We use it mainly for process discovery. We actually proceed it from different teams. So, we have 15 licenses that we rotate with different people, actually through different teams. So, we do discovery for the online team; we gather the results after about two weeks to a month. We analyze those results, and then we deploy them again on the analytics team. We regularly deploy it to different teams. So, it's in constant use. It just runs on the systems through discovery mode most of the time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Automation Anywhere a nine."
"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."
"We use AA Client, Bot runners, Control room, IQ Bot, Bot insights. With the AA Client, we are able to automate almost all kinds of automation requirements without any big challenges. We found the availability of the number of commands provided by AA is really helpful to do automation within a small time frame."
"We found that RPA with additional AI capabilities, such as machine learning and Computer Vision, can enable the organization to augment existing business operations by creating efficiencies and improving the accuracy of data to be processed, without changing too much of the existing system."
"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."
"While RPA is the cutting-edge technology to bring digital transformation, the RPA as a service will reduce costs and increase efficiency with ease of deployment, less maintenance, and cheaper upgrade costs."
"I like all of the product features, but I mostly like to work with IQ Bots because they have cognitive automation capabilities."
"AARI allows business users to trigger the bot, so I do not have to schedule everything. This convenience allows users to utilize it as they need. I can set it up to provide users with a form to fill in all required information, and then the bot operates based on those specifications. AARI is very convenient, and that is their biggest selling point."
"The initial setup is very quick."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"Cuts time due to the building of a robot which runs during the night to perform time-consuming and tedious activities."
"The full-service automation aspects and the process discovery are the most valuable features of Kryon RPA."
"It has improved our organizational process in inbound and outbound tourism; the previous process was very complex and took at least a day for the users, now it is fully automated and saving a lot of hours for our back office."
"This rate system has allowed us to be more responsive and competitive with our rates with less human involvement."
"When the users utilize the Kryon solution, it cuts off more than 50 percent of the processing time as the logic has been pre-built."
"The task mining aspect has been the most valuable for us. That's why we actually bought it."
"Kryon will allow you to automate processes fast and easy and you do not need to be a developer to automate processes."
"The thing that we find the most value in is the Process Discovery component and the ability to really see what users are doing on a day-to-day basis. We're starting to make sense of the processes that they're doing and getting visibility into what they're doing. Overall, the Process Discovery is very good."
 

Cons

"Automation Anywhere could add more tools to track the processes and ROI, so we can get a better understanding of the cost savings and compliance. We heavily track those metrics and make them available to the leadership for review."
"Automation Anywhere has some limitation with its integrations."
"Cost-wise, it should be reduced."
"The support and user community need improvement."
"It takes a lot of effort to build up the internal infrastructure/topics like Virtual Machine/Security/development-Governance/Usecase-Management."
"The bot scaling process was painful, when you go beyond a few bots, and because we had stability issues. We had to work through the issues, and they took us a long time."
"The initial setup was a bit difficult and took more time than expected."
"I would like it to have AI and ML capabilities."
"The solution should come with language customization, which would simplify its use for our customers."
"Further simplifying the low-code development process can attract a broader user base by making automation accessible to those with minimal technical skills."
"We would like to see having a little more specific documentation, or some of the examples be easier to find."
"The only unstable part is Studio where you build this stuff. In our version, the 5.25. It has a memory leak. If you leave it open for too long, eventually it just freezes. Saving your work, closing, and opening it just once a day is all it takes. However, this is a bug that I have noticed about the stability of the actual tool."
"From our experience, the product is not suitable for end users."
"There could be some features to fix compatibility issues with firmware."
"Often, it's difficult to loop through a large data set unless the bot has access to the Excel file with specific settings and shortcodes."
"Troubleshooting and debugging could be improved. It's missing a proper debugger."
"The fact is that we found this bug something like six months ago and it's still not in the new version."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In terms of pricing, it's not at all cheap, and that's a concern. The licensing cost is very high. While I don't know the exact prices of other tools, Microsoft offers the lowest pricing for its RPA platform compared to UiPath and Automation Anywhere."
"The ROI is really good. We have saved time and money."
"The cost for scalability is much cheaper than developing a new system."
"This is a comprehensive automation offering with a scalable architecture and flexible pricing models."
"The pricing of AA is similar to UiPath."
"Pricing is affordable and I would recommend beginning with the Starter Package."
"We are a partner of Automation Anywhere and find the pricing to be reasonable."
"The cost is at the highest end of the spectrum."
"There is no licensing fee for our customers."
"For an unattended robot it's $6000 a month."
"Licensing costs are about $100,000 a year without any additional costs."
"Kryon is slightly more expensive compared to UiPath."
"We've more than broken even over on the license. Year to date, we are at $120,000 in savings."
"Compared to its competitors, Kryon RPA's pricing is very competitive."
"In addition to the standard licensing costs, there are manpower costs."
"We have a yearly license. It's about $5,000 per year."
"It is very cheap. I would rate the pricing a three out of ten, with ten being expensive."
