"For the beginners, it is an easy tool compared to other tools in market. Users can understand the line by line code and code it easily. There is no syntax or anything else. They can easily drag and drop, executing the bot directly."
"Automation Anywhere provides the best application to use for RPA and other automation requirements. It's very easy to use and easy to understand. It's UI(user interface) which is so friendly and easily understand by the user, it is very easy to install automation anywhere product simply click on next to install, it is easy to develop bot and no coding knowledge is required to develop"
"We have received 70 percent optimization using this solution."
"The most valuable feature is the Excel operations because the most repetitive task which we used to do was Excel operations. Automation Anywhere has the Excel commands feature where we can run Excel Macros, which is very valuable. It's saving so much time for us."
"The error handling and troubleshooting are very good. It is easy for a developer to know what happened in any particular line of code."
"All the data that comes in has to be QC'd. Automation Anywhere helps us by automating the QC part."
"It has improved a lot. We could identify a lot of manual processes that can be automated for our customers. The scope of automation by using Automation Anywhere has become wonderful. IQ Bot and AI sense are the incredible features provided."
"The shared repositories can be used throughout all testing which makes jobs easier."
"This product is easy to use, understand, and maintain."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"We have used it for the web and Windows-based applications. It is very productive in terms of execution."
"UFT has improved our ability to regression test."
"The most valuable feature is that it is fast during test execution, unlike LoadRunner."
"Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier."
"The scalability of Micro Focus UFT One is good."
"MetaBot helps getting data from SAP, but we still have some cases where we cannot fetch data from SAP."
"In the next release, once the bot is triggered, the system should always recognize the active state and not prompt the user to log in again before the bot finishes all of its tasks."
"We've had a lot of issues with the installation and performance on a variety of computers, onshore and offshore. Our network bounds multiple domains, and we've had issues there, as well. So, we are looking forward to the web-based development versions."
"We have had issues with stability in the past, and there should be a function that helps you to find out what is wrong with your environment that is causing the automation to fail."
"There could be improvement in the reporting and insights into the ROI. The ROI tool that shows the performance and the return on investment is not very accurate."
"The only reason I wouldn't rate it higher is because a COE Manager still not getting the full benefit from it and because the premium is a little bit expensive."
"There are a lot of issues in the tool. There are a lot of breakdowns."
"The API integration should be improved further since it is a bit difficult at the moment to connect with the API in the enterprise version."
"We used to run it as a test suite. Micro Focus provides that in terms of a test management tool as ALM, but when we think of integrating with a distributed version control system, like Jenkins, there isn't much integration available. That means we need to make use of external solutions to make it work."
"I would like Micro Focus to provide more information on their portal about their newer products. The information about UFT One was outdated. The image recognition features could also be better."
"I'd like to see test case-related reports included in the solution."
"I would like to have detailed description provided to test the cloud-based applications."
"The product should evolve to be flexible so one can use any programming language such as Java and C#, and not just VB script."
"Sometimes UFT can take a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected."
"I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved."
"You have to deal with issues such as the firewall and how can the tool talk with the application, i.e., if the application is on a company network and so on. That, of course, is important to figure out."
