Nadeem K.

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.

Umair Akhlaque

Enterprise Solutions & Services Head at Duroob Technology

A fairly stable solution that’s highly mature, but has a poor user interface

The solution does not align as modern service solutions do. Seamless integration is no available among the processes. Their service management application needs a lot of work. It’s in a really bad state right now. They brought on a new interface that clumped all the processes and features of the solution into one. Still, it’s not really compatible with other solutions. Because of this, its rating has dropped in Gardner. The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements. The product needs to implement a cloud platform solution, which is lacking so far. Their workflow engine is still segregated. It’s not embedded. If you need to do some workflow approvals, you cannot do them directly on the service desk. You have to go into Outlook and do an approval or you have to go in through another screen to handle the approval because the workflow engine they have is a separate product.

Todd Blake

Senior IT Specialist at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees

A solution that streamlines ticket creation for the staff members of a business and enables efficient issue resolution by the IT team

SysAid is similar to Nintex AssureSign. Some of the back-end configurations of the solution are very difficult. So, we always need SysAid's help. Also, there are almost too many features that we are not taking advantage of in our company since we don't even know about them. A little bit of a streamlining or simplification of the main features would be a good improvement. I would like to see SysAid present its solution more easily. There is a lot in the solution, and it is more than what we need in our company.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In terms of development for our developers, it is very easy and quick to learn because Automation Anywhere has provided an online academy where developers can easily learn the features. It is very easy. If someone does not have a coding background, they can also learn from it very easily because it is just drag and drop and very interactive."

"Automation Anywhere RPA has enabled a lot of our employees to have their valuable time freed up to do other things, ranging from the Treasury department, the Revenue department, General and Cost Accounting."

"The solution has helped us increase productivity."

"The infrastructure that Automation Anywhere has created is really simple; compared to other tools such as Power Automate, it is more user-friendly and faster."

"We have had a very good experience with Automation Anywhere and we are very happy with the solutions."

"It automates forms for our customers and our analysts."

"It saves a lot of effort and hours. It is time-efficient and cost-efficient."

"Our onboarding process was pretty good. We got access to all software that we needed to learn and utilize. The Automation Anywhere University is really good. In our business, the person who was onboarding us helped us to understand how to create a center of excellence and what verticals we needed to improve. So, the support was there. We are gradually becoming a center of excellence ourselves."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"It's quite a complete entry into the SaaS ITSM market with a reasonable price point."

"This is the best product for Large Infrastructure companies/organizations to monitor their infrastructures/servers etc."

"It’s provided self-service and automation, notifications, and reporting, and it’s good on a day-to-day and macro perspective."

"The ability to add Additional Information Screens on the fly."

"It provides us with a very easy and flexible UI for CA Nimsoft Service Desk 7."

"This is really easy solution to scale up and get get going to add new catalog items."

"Improved the effectiveness of my Service Desk Team and improved the SLA timing."

"Using the self-service functionalities we have been able to eliminate a lot of the support phone calls, and actually reduce a lot of our help desk staff."

More Serviceaide ChangeGear pros

"SysAid provides us with multilayered service management and all of our support pieces integrated into one system."

"It tracks everything that the technicians are doing. We can account for time and manage resources."

"The service desk automation and orchestration are very good. We are implementing it at the moment. We implemented it for two of our applications already for our CRM. Whenever there's a change in the CRM, it will automate them into SysAid as well. We have two workflows from our CRM into SysAid, which is very helpful. Overall, we're very happy with the workflow."

"The SysAid team provided excellent service to implement the solution for us. From the very first day, we received a comp manager, and a project manager, to implement the product. They continued to inquire about our business needs and then finalized the best path for us."

"I really like the SysAid self-service portal; it's very customizable and we can customize it to fit our needs rather well."

"It's supporting the daily routine of the IT organization, it is the ticketing system, and it's very helpful due to the fact that it provides us with full evidence and full transparency for what we are working on."

"At our agency, people love SysAid."

"The only way we could have managed that growth was by having an application like SysAid."

More SysAid pros

Cons

"Automation Anywhere is a tool. It is not able to go ahead and extract the hand-written documents. Most of the automation tools that we have in the market are not able to get an accuracy of close to 80 to 90 percent on hand-written documents. So, I'm eagerly looking at a release from Automation Anywhere, wherein they could plug in an LP or look at some sort of a platform which could convert hand-written documents into a readable format. If they could bring in they own platform, this would make a big in-roads for the entire automation industry."

"With the PDF command, you can only read structured data. If your data is in an unstructured format, there is no command for it in Automation Anywhere. Then, people need to use Python coding if their data is in unstructured format. Therefore, Automation Anywhere needs to improve in the PDF area."

"The solution doesn't offer all the capabilities that we need, so we have to use it in conjunction with other software."

"Automation Anywhere can be improved by working on the next step with GenAI process automation and the agents."

"When I change the name of a variable in the Variable Manager, I would really like it to change in the code."

"I would like OCR for video and text using the IQ Bot. It should also be available in an email tag format."

"My main issue with Automation Anywhere might be the logging of bots and getting more detailed feedback of what my bot is doing, step by step. It is hard to track fine-tuning in larger codes."

"I would like better support. The technical support is mediocre. The support is sometimes really good, and sometimes it is really bad."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"I think they could update some of the interface. It doesn't look as pretty as some of the other ones."

"Few probes need improvement in their function and the way they get deployed for monitoring."

"We had a lot of issues with non-Windows servers during implementation."

"The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements."

"When tickets are closed occasionally, it is quite hard to reopen it, which will cause lost-tickets."

"Flexibility to customize."

"We have been seeing a little bit of latency here and there, but we haven't been able to identify it."

"Usability for IT analysts could be improved."

More Serviceaide ChangeGear cons

"The automation needs improvement. The workflow has some improvements to do. There's some stuff that they are working on like having cascaded fields. For example, we're categorizing tickets by location, by site and by building and then by data room within a data center. At the moment they're all separate fields."

"The automation needs improvement. The workflow has some improvements to do."

"One of the features that I'm hoping comes at some point is that currently you can only have one Knowledge Base instance within it. For me, it would be beneficial to have multiple instances for different purposes. I'd like to have a completely separate one for customers and the only way I can achieve that right now, where I can tag articles to only be viewed by customers, would be if I use its portal function."

"One of the features that I'm hoping comes at some point is that currently you can only have one Knowledge Base instance within it."

"There is a learning curve for the users."

"The only thing that I would like to see is for them to improve asset management so that it's more usable."

"From my perspective, it's a little bit of a legacy system in our IT landscape."

"Some of the back-end configurations of the solution are very difficult. So, we always need SysAid's help."

More SysAid cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is the most economically friendly and it provides you with a lot of functions."

"More than 40 to 50 percent of the IT budget will be for the cost of automation projects in the coming years since these projects enhance operations add value."

"The pricing model can be a bit more flexible."

"I am not responsible for the pricing part, but I know the pricing is competitive compared to other tools."

"It is cost-efficient in terms of licensing. I found their support good when I was working for the airline client. However, I hear from my managers here that the support price for Tier 3 or premium is a little higher. That is why we are not going for Automation Anywhere. Its price was okay for our client, but for us, it seems expensive."

"Whatever investment, licensing, and resource costs together are put in for development and delivery, we are still at an ROI of 250 percent."

"Automation Anywhere's price is considerably better than UiPath's."

"Automation Anywhere is somewhat expensive. The prices are slightly higher, but if you need something, you must pay for it."

Information not available

"We saw our investment back at the end of year one."

"The pricing of SysAid is less than its competitors."

"Though I am not really sure about SysAid's prices, I know that it is competitive compared to some of the other products that our company looked at, like ConnectWise and ServiceNow."

"Once you're interested, talk with SysAid. You can have them come in and look at your company and advise you on the best solution. They will tell you what comes with each separate package and also advise you what application to activate. If you want something that they don't have, they have a department that can design something based on your unique requests."

"Overall, the price is good. It's all about what you get for the base amount. From my perspective, you want to look at what you're getting out-of-the-box. SysAid does a good job of putting key stuff in the box for you."

"SysAid is a good solution, especially from a pricing perspective."
