Automation Anywhere vs Kissflow

• Exception handling is pretty decent. WE don't have to worry about process being stuck as it moves to the next iteration on its own.
• Automation is easier to achieve as it doesn't require high coding skills or designing a specific framework.
• It can achieve PDF editing and automation, which in our case of policy documents has been valuable.

• Ease of Use: It's easier to use and see workflow tasks that are assigned to you, workflows that you've participated in, or workflows that are pending other peoples approvals. From a development side, it's easy to pick up and begin creating processes if you know Excel formulation, which is easily researched as well.
• Ease of Access: Since KiSSFLOW is hosted in the cloud, you can access the site from any internet connected device. All you have to do is sign in with your account, as opposed to needing to be on the network to access like our previous system.
• The App: This is a feature we really hope to get a lot of use out of. With the way our business is structured, there are a lot of Regional positions that are always on the go. Because our current system requires a user to be on the network to access, this makes it hard for these roles to respond to tasks, causing bottlenecks. With an app available, along with push notifications, we can keep these tasks responses on pace with the associates required in that task.

• The reporting could use some improvement. The actual reports are OK, it is access to the reports that is the problem. This is related to the permission schema. It really just has user, admin, and nothing in-between. There really needs to be something like report admin or something. Excel exports for data are needed as well.
• The user workflow selection UI is not the best. There is a big red + sign in the lower right of the browser window that is not labeled. That is not clear. Also the selection list is just a pop-up window, it really should be a full page.
• The mobile app does not have all the features that the browser version has, especially admin tools.

• Our overall business has saved numerous hours of work where individuals were freed up to perform higher level thinking tasks.
• Following a necessary reduction in workforce that was not driven by RPA, we were able to automate processes that kept the remaining workload from overwhelming the remaining workforce.
• The use of robotics process automation has inspired many workers to come up with different approaches to problems including both automation and analytics.

• Kissflow has helped us keep careful records of costs and pricing for various products, which indirectly impacts our margin.
• Our owner had trouble with the phone app, so ultimately we stopped using Kissflow for purchase requests. There is some lost potential there.
