Automation Anywhere vs. Klippa

Automation anywhere is well suited in most rule-based processes. It can manage high-volume transactions with accuracy and scale up quickly. It is very flexible in terms of integration and implementation. The bots can be scheduled, monitored and performance can be reported on a regular basis. It works well with most enterprise solutions.

Klippa does well with invoices without graphics and logos. If you can convince your suppliers to remove their branding and submit plain company names it will perform better. One issue that I could not overcome was when a supplier used "SO" (for Sales Order) as the prefix for an invoice. Every time the OCR ran it deciphered this as "S0" S-Zero. I wouldn't downgrade my rating based on that though. My one significant disappointment was I was led to believe that they would tailor the template for us. There was some minor work around our local tax rules but when it got to specific coding for our purchase order numbers the work ceased. To be fair, I may have misunderstood the scope of what changing these templates was included in the agreement. Either way, we could work around it so it wasn't a major flaw.

• Now I easily generate the invoices and quotation generation is an easy task now. Previously it was very time consuming as we have to drag the data from the excel sheets.
• I will praise its integration with other software that has facilitated us to make amendments in the data across those platforms.
• Its interface is very easy and user friendly.

• Automation Anywhere doesn't come with easy installation, We need to install Java, IDEs and Databases in an orderly fashion which we are not able to do.
• Automation Anywhere has no workflow design which is not making us to understand the process.
• Automation Anywhere has no fit to size object cloning.

• More flexibility in tailoring the templates to suit individual customers.
• Better documentation around the API; as I recall it was hard to find.
• Commercial follow up. No one has contacted me since my initial purchase.

On more complex use cases, Automation Anywhere requires technical background like knowledge on network protocols and database language on task creation, and even people with technical background might have some trouble in the beginning because of the product particularities on how variable manipulation works, or how to get the object cloning (a more resilient screen manipulation command) to work as intended. The scheduling of tasks on the Control Room and the autologin feature isn't intuitive as they should, so much of this works requires documentation analysis to get it done on the first time.

Automation Anywhere is a great tool for a low cost, fairly easily scalable, and quickly learned. The company is growing by leaps and bounds and continually pushing the automation boundaries. The problem with fast expansion is that sometimes you can grow more quickly than you can appropriately support your products. While Automation Anywhere has an excellent support structure in place, every company and situation is different, and they often struggle with why problems arise in the system and how to fix them.

Perfect training from the online academy the software offers it for free

Nothing in particular

Automation Anywhere is the most comprehensive, end-to-end automation platform out of the three. It offers a wider range of functionality than Blue Prism and UiPath. Its powerful features allow automation of complex tasks, creating smarter bots to streamline business processes. Automation Anywhere’s features are also very progressive, supporting web scraping and creating AI-driven automation capability. Additionally, it requires less redevelopment for updates than the other two options as its development platform is one of the most user-friendly designs available.

The choice of Automation Anywhere over the others was made due to its comprehensive features and progressive capabilities that will make our enterprise more efficient in automation functionalities. The large library of functions provided by Automation Anywhere makes it easier for us to find the right solution quickly, without having to develop extensive scripting knowledge if needed during projects.

Klippa is optimised for invoices. Wins hands down.
