We performed a comparison between Automation Anywhere (AA) and Eggplant Test based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The flexibility which has been built into it is its most valuable feature."
"All the data that comes in has to be QC'd. Automation Anywhere helps us by automating the QC part."
"The whole suite of RPA modules that they have is very good. They have three environments in which you can do your automation. You have development, staging, and production environments. These are run by licenses as well, which is very good. There are a lot of ways of automating processes with this application."
"The platform is easy to use, especially for business users."
"It is easy to use. It helps to reduce your man-hours and manual effort."
"Our development time has been reduced because the solution is very user-friendly."
"It improves accuracy and reduces manpower. It is easy to learn."
"Automation Anywhere has a uniqueness with respect to the IQ Bot."
"We did see a massive return on investment from using Eggplant."
"We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual."
"It is easy to set up."
"Good text reading ability."
"The solution is based on a Windows model, where adding users is just a few clicks. It is easy to manage users and add them."
"Everything is happening on the layout or display that is used by the user. Eggplant prompts processes, like 'click here,' or 'look for this image.' Eggplant makes it possible for QA people and BAs, working in the actual display, to check if the software is providing the right images, the right text, and the right results. They don't have to go inside the code or to the TCP/IP layer. Everything is happening at the highest level."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it."
"The main feature of Eggplant Test is that it can do fully automated web testing and app testing."
"They are already working on this: The boom of generative AI, the next-gen technologies, including advanced AI and ML technologies, are in the roadmap. I would like to see more and more AI integration and a bit more analytics. That would be great."
"Our current version needs drag and drop, but that should be in the next release."
"We are having trouble creating a reliable and stable situation in our environment."
"Sometimes, the recorder from Automation Anywhere does not work well and is inaccurate. This should be improved."
"The IQ Bot is pretty immature, in regards to AI and machine learning. I would like them to add additional logic."
"Verbose logging of bot compiling and deployment from the control room. Events occurring during compiling, pre-processing the bots should be logged in the control room or bot launcher logs."
"There is room for improvement in terms of costs and procurement considerations."
"Automation Anywhere can include database commands like insert row, bold row, etc commands in 11.x"
"The language is too specific; it is just for Eggplant."
"Its performance and stability could be better."
"The IDE could be even more full-featured. Because I was a developer, I was very spoiled by either Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio for shortcuts. For example, I was able to say "ctor" and hit Tab and it would create a template of a constructor for me... It would be great, when I want to create a new function, if there were shortcut commands like those that helped create all of the functions, or if there were shortcut features to do any of the complex plans."
"The solution would crash from time to time."
"I would like to see standardized actions already built into Eggplant. For example, "wait eight seconds". That way, I wouldn't need to create it as an action. Right now, I have to program that wait and describe it as an action so that everybody knows it is an action that waits eight seconds... That way, somebody who is not familiar with programming processes like "if-else", or "for", or "while", would be able, from the first moment, and without programming, to put some easy-to-use, standardized, actions in place."
"They need to update the Linux. I think it's kind of an outdated Java Swing application."
"There was no free trial in it."
"Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence could improve by lowering the price."
