Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions
I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

Significantly reduces manual effort and improves team workflows through automated ticketing
We've used Agent Builder, IXP, and Maestro for orchestration. We have created context-grounded searches or chatbots using context grounding, and we also use context grounding within an Agentic flow where a bot or agent reads ServiceNow tickets to determine whether it has been assigned to the right work group. If it has not been assigned correctly due to human error, it automatically reassigns it to the right group. I would assess Agentic AI's ability to extract data points as effective. We created an agent for the purpose of extracting data, though not in a document. We created what we call an email conversation agent that engages with a customer, vendor, or someone in an email conversation with a set goal of extracting specific data points for an action to be performed subsequently. The one automation we have deployed in production involves the agent interacting with team members to collect data points and create a ServiceNow ticket. We appreciate almost all features of UiPath Platform, with one of the most successful ones being the use of Coms Mining. Most of the new features related to AI have all been good, and we use Agentic. We have already created a few agents and have started to use Maestro for a few flows, though we are not yet there to orchestrate an end-to-end workflow. We have good ROI from the automations we have developed with UiPath Platform, which far exceeds the investment in the platform. It has saved us tens of thousands of hours in manual effort, making the team members happy to pursue other things of value.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution is easy to use and easy to apply."
"The entire backend system structure is something that I found really valuable."
"BotFarm is an easy solution to use and the interface is better than older versions."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the Excel automation and support for SharePoint."
"They recently released the newest version that has a good program flow, quality, and blueprints that are all good improvements to the automation. They also have good integration with SAP."
"The most valuable features are the portals for extracting data from PDF files, appending data to SAP, automating the SAP, downloading reports, and mapping and creating the reports accordingly to your requirements."
"The dashboards are quite good, especially on the latest versions."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"Storing data partially using internal data tables for internal calculations, without relying on a full database, is most beneficial for our workflows."
"Orchestrator works great, allowing us to do a lot of our monitoring directly through there."
"I am able to get answers on issues regarding UiPath in the Forum and I can also automate faster because of the reusable components available in UiPath Go!"
"The quick delivery is good, and the solution is easy to use."
"The setup was very easy. We're in the cloud, so it's very simple."
"The most valuable feature is automating tasks that are highly repetitive, such as Accounts Payable. It is also easy to use."
"The pricing is fairly decent."
"The most important and valuable feature of UiPath is the ease of creating automations. It's a workflow-based model. End-to-end coverage is, no doubt, very important, because when you use a fragmented solution, the overall process flow becomes shaky. UiPath has the required capabilities to create an end-to-end solution for a business case."
 

Cons

"Although I like the OCR technology, it could still be further improved."
"The solution can improve the accuracy of hand-written data reading"
"We do have some troubles with the internal software commands, but we have been troubleshooting this bug to fix it."
"I have called customer service three times and the experience has not been good. They do not offer 24/7 support, which forces us to wait till the next working day to solve a problem."
"The user experience could be made a little better with this solution. I find it difficult to find qualified people to be able to use the solution."
"Sometimes I feel like it doesn't work properly and we are not able to provide the dexterity needed."
"The only challenge that we have faced with BotFarm is that there is no continuous deployment. The whole world is moving to the DevOps model, but BotFarm is still not on the DevOps model. It should have integration with the DevOps model. The migration of the bots or bots pipeline is currently purely manual."
"The CL command poses an issue during the process of data conversion, accuracy, data loss and the assessment of certain data as false."
"We need them to improve the scalability, as we are still building up. The product is not big enough yet to eliminate human errors."
"The tool needs to have more documentation and change logs. Minor upgrades break a few things."
"Creating a trigger that is based on either the arrival of a file or the arrival of an email is a common scenario and it should be built into the platform so that I don't have to code for it every time."
"It would be very helpful for us if they provided more business use cases and helped us to learn them."
"UiPath could do some optimization of how you search through your process flows."
"It could be a little more aesthetically pleasing."
"While UiPath works super well with other applications and browsers and app pages that we use in the RedLINK wires, when it comes to experience, sometimes it doesn't detect what it's supposed to be doing as easily."
"If I had one thing that I would ask for more development in, it would be audit trail. We're a high-trust certified company, so we need to make sure that we have all that information."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am very happy with the pricing."
"The pricing model could be simplified."
"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."
"The starter price is free."
"Automation Anywhere is more reasonable than Blue Prism and UiPath in terms of cost."
"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
"We are on an annual license for the solution and is priced well."
"Its price is quite high as compared to other solutions, but it has a lot of features and good stability. They should reduce its price."
"The initial investment cost is expensive, but I promise you guys this will be very helpful as we can easily automate applications and our productivity has increased."
"The main problem around scalability is the licensing structure and the inability to dynamically assign licenses across robots. While I know this is coming, this is our main gripe with scalability: the licensing structure. Because we are part of a larger setup with our own IT supplier, who does a multitenancy setup with Orchestrator, to have more flexibility with the use of licenses would be very valuable."
"They have been increasing the price. The explanation that they are providing is that they are adding more features. This works perfectly fine for customers who are looking for new intelligent automations, but there is another set of customers who are using UiPath for vanilla, plain automations. Offering them something that is not required and asking them to pay more puts a burden on them. That seems to be a problem for the customers. Many of them have mentioned this concern because it is increasing the prices of automation every year, which is not acceptable to all customers."
"UiPath is reasonably priced."
"Compared to other solutions, the pricing is moderate."
"In the initial days, UiPath was more competitive in terms of the license pricing as compared to Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere; it was much less. Currently, the pricing is quite standard compared to the other two vendors."
"We have 200 licenses for bots in production and pay between $200,000 and $300,000 per year currently."
"We looked at Blue Prism and two other vendors. Based on our comparison, UiPath was the better solution with better licensing."
