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

"BotFarm is an easy solution to use and the interface is better than older versions."
"The solution seems to offer high stability. We haven't seen any bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze."
"The record option and the OCR technology have been great."
"BotFarm has been working perfectly fine with our business model. Its scalability is the most valuable feature. We can easily scale out bots on a need basis. Portability is another valuable feature. We work with different payment systems like Visa and MasterCard and have bots for them. Because of BotFarm, we are able to reuse these bots."
"One of the most valuable features is the solution's simple automation regarding object cloning and strings variables."
"The best aspect is the UI, as it is very user-friendly."
"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."
"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 fact that we have the opportunity to access all of our services without any requirements from our side suits us very well."
"Our main projects are mostly around SAP and Excel. We have used most of the features available, especially the ones that support SAP and Excel activities. Those are the ones that we have found to be most useful."
"It's easy to build automation with UiPath. It's very stable in terms of having controls captured and putting some environment. It's a very stable environment for automation."
"Some of our processes that would take days now take minutes."
"The best feature in the latest release of UiPath Platform for me is the Orchestrator, which I find very user-friendly for navigation, as I haven't seen such a good Orchestrator among any of the other competitors."
"Our usage is very simple. We have been getting the text, parsing it, and trying to categorize and analyze it. We are not using it fully, but the OCR is very important."
"Its ease of use is valuable. For building an application, if I give this product to a newbie, he or she would be able to easily use it and build an application with minimum knowledge. No extra training is required. Its features are self-explanatory, and anyone can understand them, which is the main feature of this product."
"I like the interface. It's simple to interact with. We can replicate and multiply the robots when we need to change something."
 

Cons

"There should be more support for developing in environments such as Citrix and Linux."
"The image processing capabilities definitely need to be improved."
"The OCR tool, the optical character recognition tool, could be more efficient."
"I would like to see more process mining features to give us insight into them before we develop automation."
"I would definitely be wanting to see OCR features for improving the solution."
"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."
"Although I like the OCR technology, it could still be further improved."
"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."
"When you're nesting certain workflows, it can get a little complicated as you start getting deeper."
"The area that must improve is while releasing a new version, it must be capable of running the bots developed in the older version."
"An area which the UiPath team is rapidly working on is machine learning and artificial intelligence. At the moment, it is a little difficult to understand. If they could add some more training on it in their Academy, it would help customers to learn about these features."
"UiPath's process mining needs to improve a lot. The generated reports are difficult to analyze by ordinary people. Task mining reports are also difficult."
"Orchestrator needs to have better integration to include business users."
"I can’t think of any direct places where improvements need to happen. Whatever I need, it appears to be there. That said, any app could use some form of improvement."
"UiPath Platform can be improved by providing more direct connectivity into source systems."
"A bot that could provide feedback would be nice."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is too expensive and not worth the price."
"The product is slightly expensive"
"The license of this solution is on an annual basis. The price is fair. However, what we did initially was a POC, but now we are looking at moving from a POC to expanding it out further. I would appreciate some kind of discount."
"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."
"Pricing for this solution can be better."
"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
"The pricing is fair."
"We are on an annual license for the solution and is priced well."
"The pricing is quite reasonable."
"Initially, it maybe was $8,000 or $10,000. However, as the number of bots increases, the pricing has to come down. That said, with volume, we don't see that."
"From what I know, UiPath's licensing has a reasonable cost."
"A robot license costs $6,000 USD per year, or $10,000 NZD."
"The cost is satisfactory."
"The pricing is transparent, and the best part is that they have the Community version, so there isn't anything to hide. You can try the cloud version. They offer plenty of time, two months, for a trial."
"We got purchased the basic minimum package and it was around $35,000 USD, annually."
"At the company that I was with previously, we were paying $3,600 USD per bot. With the new company that I am at, because we're new and we don't have the size, we are paying $8,000 USD per bot."
