What do you dislike about the product?
Below are a couple of things which observe and faced during the Automation anywhere implementation with our Projects.
1. The price is something which can be worked on as well because I feel the licence cost is a little high.
2. Error handing- there we are facing a little bit glitch while creating multiple tasks for the same project.
3. Need to improve on Mainframe Applications & MS office Features. Efficacy against Visual Basic Application Codes (MS Excel), web scrapping in Visual basic macros is near to or exceed efficiency against RPA (bots), Terminal Emulator IBM I Series.
4. The java forms interaction is a bit painful and slower if compared with API/ web automation.
5. I didn't found integration with office O365. Might they release is in next addition.
6. They need can improve UI in terms of developer standpoint, for example, variable manager section is the major pain area in the tool as it doesn't allow multiple variables to either be deleted or copied and pasted in the different bot at the same. The developers have to copy-paste one variable at a time or delete it one by one.

Top 2 RPA tool
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use is undoubtedly the best feature of Automation Anywhere. Despite not having an interface as friendly as its UiPath competitor, Automation Anywhere still has a very low learning curve for beginners and intermediaries on the platform. It is possible to do almost any type of automation just using the tool's features, from sending an email to reading multiple PDF files. The tool also has an active community in the forums, where it is possible to find metabots to perform a little more elaborate actions where it would be more complicated to do just with the available features. The courses offered by the platform itself solidify the learning base of those who are starting to use the platform or in the RPA itself.
What do you dislike about the product?
Speaking for me, the biggest negative point I find in the tool is the automation in the office package, specifically Excel. In the rival, Excel automation is extremely efficient and can be done with the program in the background, in Automation Anywhere, I find automation a little slower and cannot be done in the background.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I worked with Automation Anywhere, I was able to develop a solution for a large Brazilian telecommunications company. The developed solution made the automated control of the peripheral equipment stock, sending an e-mail to the management whenever a collaborator needed equipment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Automation Anywhere, as a market leader, is great for anyone looking to get started in RPA. Most companies look for professionals trained in Automation Anywhere. If your company has a partnership with the platform, it is possible to take the certification tests for free up to a certain period.
Excellent adaptability with technological environments.
What do you like best about the product?
I am fascinated by object cloning, as it attaches to any website, making it easier for me to work with data.
What do you dislike about the product?
Confusing steps must be taken to obtain rows or columns from an Excel file.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Interact with applications like SAP to perform process automation in the accounting area
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a powerful tool
Using RPA since 2018 and this is an exciting journey
What do you like best about the product?
The tool offer practical funcions for the developer. The pre loaded comands cover most portion of the actions needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
The default OCR feature does not recognize the texts as desired.
The inability of running alone. Once it depends on interaction of other system screens if you leave the BOT running there are many chances to see the automation stopped in the begining of the next working day. It could have some AI feature to solve this.
You need a least 3 people as staff to keep it running with some tranquility.
You need high level sponsorship to deploy business processes to be automatized.
We miss native commands with the popular Google Chrome browser and it forces us to work with the Internet Explorer!

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We got 2 BOTs running in production at our mid size company. There are 2 people working on it: the developer and the operator.
Considering the small size of the tech team we produced good RPA automation to reduce about 3 employees and some manual and repetitive tasks.
We got automation in the following processes: Billing; HR; Procurement; Logistics and 4.0 Industry.
There are many other processes to be automated in the pipeline. You need to consider good time to map processes as a consultant and development labor.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
When you got high availability of your systems and also high control of change management this is the time to get in. Otherwise you automation will stop due unpredictable events and you will need your developer debugging every day.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Keep learning new updates via AA University.
Easy to use platform that keeps adding features!
What do you like best about the product?
We are treated with new and friendly features almost every few months! AA is the first in the industry to launch an integrated document AI layer like IQ Bot. AA launched Microsoft Bots last month. And already this month AA has come up with Discovery Bot. The sheer pace at which path-breaking features are added is impressive. Another aspect is the Bot Store, which is quite evolved, and has a much wider industry coverage than the competition. The 'starter pack' is also a quite easy-on-the-pocket attraction to new customers.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a dependency on the control room to execute just about anything. In other words, almost nothing can be run without authenticating with the control room. This becomes a limitation in secured environments with no internet access. Further, as a developer, one misses output variables as a standard feature; one has to necessarily log the output to a file and pick from there. Also, the training modules could be better designed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The power of the AA platform is best harnessed by applying it on not-so-structured applications. Functions like document reading, writing to legacy applications, and complex testing scenarios, have been our use cases.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do not look for ROI or cost saving through replacement of humans as the only benefit accruing from RPA implementation. Accuracy and mistake-proofing is a much more powerful use case as compared to merely eking out efficiencies. Also, be prepared for a slightly more involved support engagement (read higher cost) as compared to traditional software projects.
