"RPA is the future"
What do you like best about Automation Anywhere - RPA | Robotic Process Automation?

RPA dramatically reduces the dependency on resources to increase efficiency and reduce errors. It also helps in situations where the resource crunch is at a high. With the increase in the project workload and shortage of skilled workforce, part of the ongoing maintenance task could be outsourced but requires monitoring, with RPA eliminated.

What do you dislike about Automation Anywhere - RPA | Robotic Process Automation?

Some of the aspects of deployment cannot be automated and still require manual intervention. Outsourcing was helpful for specific tasks, but getting RPA implemented has been challenging, especially with the limited knowledge base. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
