The best alternatives to Automation Anywhere

10 European alternatives · updated 5 October 2026 · How we select

Automation Anywhere’s pricing and dated interface push EU teams to look elsewhere, especially when data residency and GDPR compliance become non-negotiable. European vendors like Axon Ivy host exclusively in the EU and avoid U.S. data access laws, which can be the deciding factor for regulated industries. Others switch for simpler setup or to escape vendor lock-in without sacrificing enterprise-grade workflow automation.

In short

Automation Anywhere covers rpa bots, workflow automation, process modeling and process discovery. European alternatives: Axon Ivy, WEBCON BPS, Camunda Platform, JobRouter and ARIS BPA and 5 more. By area: Axon Ivy, WEBCON BPS and WIANCO OTT Robotics for rPA bots; Axon Ivy, WEBCON BPS and Camunda Platform for workflow automation; Axon Ivy, Camunda Platform and ARIS BPA for process modeling; Axon Ivy, WEBCON BPS and TCG Process OCTO for process discovery.
