What do you like best about the product?
The automation anywhere provides a wide range of functionalities, some of them what I used and felt best was object cloning as it gives the very good scope of capturing the data from the web applications as well as from the desktop applications. There are different commands for different types of applications such as desktop and web applications. the excel automation commands provide very quick and accurate processing of the excel, we can even use excel as the database to fetch the data. The best thing is to create the variables while creating bot in A360
What do you dislike about the product?
There are certain minor limitations, as I see sometimes even community and licensed version stops and keep on loading as Deploying Bot. From my end, I feel this has to be fixed IN AA360 or A2019.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There we have thousands of employees whom we need to go and revoke access or provide the access. It helped me and the team to reduce the manual efforts at many places. I have used the email automation where I have used screen automation features
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend Automation Anywhere to other users due to its features, ease of use ,less coding experience and many useful commands and build in functionalities. the metabot and IQ Bots are the added very good advantage to make the process automation get completed with ease. The automation anywhere provides the quick support. the support team and the mentors are very experienced.

The Control Room feature is greatly appreciated. This option allow me to monitor all my bots & save time to each automation. MetaBot feature was a great addition to help with smoke testing of a unstable web based environment
What do you dislike about the product?
OCR & image recognition feature limitation. We do not have an alternative to these two features. The disappointment is more based on the unreach potential of these features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Several repetitive back offices task and processes. Reusability of the script that we are creating. We were able to do alot of cost avoidance and are ready to built a new road map for the future.

Always do POC to validate your company requirements FIRST. At first you won't know that a feature could be benefical or mandatory until you actually try it on several occasion. Practice makes perfect

A Master tool in the world of automation
What do you like best about the product?
Automation anywhere is one of the best tools in the market of RPA these days. It has presented the industry with an easy to use and cutting edge technology. The organization has launched IQ bot to help extract data from scanned and handwritten documents increasing the extent of automation to manual documents as well. It can be used for enterprise-scale automation
Some of the features which I find best are -
- Use of excel as database is really helpful in case of large volumes
- Smart recording captures most of the properties of spying elements
- Triggers; a bot can be scheduled to trigger on a number of conditions
- Availability of over 500+ commands

What do you dislike about the product?
When compared to other RPA tools, there are some areas in which AA is lying behind from a developers' perspective -
- UI of AA could be better, a code of 200-300 lines look messy where its even hard to find start and end of the loop for example.
- Debugging is difficult as there is no option to step into sub-task from main task.
- No option to change the value of variable during run time.
-Concept of queues is not clear.

The best thing about Automation Anywhere is that I could solve a lot of problems as staying all the day finishing a big amount of work, collecting data from sites and emails. Automation Anywhere made it very easy for me I can save time to finish other important work as I let AA do the job for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
I like this product so much I don't have anythink that I don't like about AA, however I think that you need to improve ease of use as it takes a lot of study to create my own bot, and there is a lot of tabs for the analyzing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a very effective product, it has so many benefits: I can save a lot of time in the usual taks that I do daily, making time for me to do another tasks in the same time. Also, AA is saving money for the companies, making the work more effective and avoid mistakes and that makes the work cycle more smooth and successful, that also it makes systematic.
