Automation Anywhere is constantly upgrading their software and adding new features to stay ahead in the industry. Their IQBot for document processing is very well layed out and easy to identify target fields and add custom logic if necessary. The script formatting of their development environment is very user friend and easy to locate commands. There are over 500 commands available including scripts and I haven't run into a scenario yet where I couldn't find a feature to connect with an application. I've been able to log output data very easily to files and interface with Excel very easily, including running macros and this has helped a lot with what we've been trying to accomplish. I also like the University of Automation Anywhere as they have a lot of resources available to read and a cloud version even where you can test the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike some of the features to the Metabot because I am not able to edit an existing metabot in the sense of copying the logic from one metabot to another and changing some of the tasks inside and uploading to the server. This has caused a lot of rework in the processes I've had to automate. I don't like how you can't pull out tabs on the top and can only have one window open at a time. And maybe this is a personal problem, but when I leave the tab and come back, it starts at the top and I always have to scroll back to where I was rather than staying in the same spot.

What I like the most about Automation Anywhere is that they provide a lot of very useful and easy to use "out of the box" action to implement in your automation flows to tackle real world business challenges. Automation Anywher comes with a variety of actions/tools like (APIs or Sharepoint) to integrate almost everything in your solutions. The WLM Workload Management feature will let you spread time critical tasks to a pool of bot runners to handle these transaction much quicker. But for me very special is the effort put into the courses, learning trails, delta trainings, #BotGames and the skill boosters which will create a enjoyable and interresting learning experience.

Automation Anywhere’s intuitive interface, reusable bot framework, and robust integration with APIs and databases make it easy to scale automations across departments. Features like the credential vault, error handling, and Bot Insights provide the security and visibility needed for enterprise-grade automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While Automation Anywhere is a powerful tool, version upgrades and migration from v11 to A360 can be complex and time-consuming. Some advanced features, like DLL integration and error tracing, require workarounds or deeper technical involvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best part of the automation anywhere - RPA is that it allows me to focus back on growing my business instead of managing my business. All of the basic tasks that would take up my time like data entry and analysis are now done for me so I can focus on getting more customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AA knows the enterprise and industry well and practice the professional way, to lead the RPA and now in APA world, AA make the turn quickly even it took a lot of loss and sacrifise, but it keep in right trace Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The cost to adopt RPA of AA and now APA looks still high, but understand that should come from entire ecosystem work effort Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been using AA from more than a year and the most useful feature I found is Image recognition which helped me a lot for my client project.
Also, i found the PDF integration command very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes, object cloning command gives unnecessary errors which is the only thing i dislike as of now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Automation Anywhere is a super helpful RPA platform. It's great for automating those boring, repetitive tasks, which frees everyone up and makes things more efficient with fewer mistakes. Their Automation 360 platform is cloud-based, so it's really flexible and can grow with your needs for any digital changes you're making. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Users often need additional training or developer support to unlock the full potential of cognitive automation.
Frequent updates to the cloud platform can sometimes lead to compatibility issues or force users to revalidate existing bots. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm using different RPA tools for the past 2 years in my organization. Among those tools Automation Anywhere is one of the best tool which is more stable and have wide variety of options to automate all the tasks in any application or web related things. This tool is best for automating all ERP's such as SAP, Oracle etc. I used this tool to automate BMC using it's API via Automation Anywhere and it is very stable and withing in seconds tasks are getting completed and literally zero error. The dynamic link library option for automating SAP is really fast and reliable. My favorite option in this tool is MetaBot and we use this to avoid repetition of developing same task. The best part of this tool is that once we deploy our bots we can monitor them using the enterprise control room orchestrator API and also the analytical and graphical view of the number of Bots running or faulted bots etc is very easy to understand in a quick glance.

The first and foremost thing I hate about this tool is that the user interface is not attractive and not easy as like other RPA tools. Another thing I don't like in this tool is that in the command tab there is no search option for activities so the user have to scroll down and expand and search themselves for finding a particular activity which will result in time waste.

I like the customer service, when I face a problem in rpa, I raise a ticket, and get quick help from Automation Anywhere team.
I also like the building code in AA platform, it is easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It can take time to use few packages like sharepoint,outlook packages since it needs some informations to be filled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Automation Anywhere stands out for its cloud-first, web-based architecture, which makes it incredibly easy to deploy and scale without the burden of heavy infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While powerful, Automation Anywhere can have a steep learning curve for complex automations and occasional stability issues in the bot builder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
