A highly scalable product that helps organizations solve problems easily and produces a high return on investment
Sometimes, the initial setup is hard. We don't find the components to solve the exact problem. We need to get some scripts. It can take time. The time taken for deployment depends on the processes. Complex processes take days. Sometimes, we get processes that can be completed within hours. We usually get complex processes.

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 product helps us solve problems easily and immediately."
"UiPath is an easy to learn and use tool with a great user interface."
"It's easy to automate rote tasks with UiPath."
"Time-saving is the biggest area that has improved for us. We had users spending lots of time trying to get data from a system and then creating a file that was going to be used for our auditing purposes, which then gets submitted online. We definitely found some issues where an end-user was pulling data from different sources and then storing that data with lots of human touching that created issues."
"An example of how this product has improved the way our organization functions is that it has doubled the number of records that we process per hour."
"Reading content for the robot to process with our own logic, and it is very easy to develop with great user interfaces."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the unattended robots because I can schedule my jobs and it can run on its own."
"UiPath has improved the ease of building automations. We were using SeleniumBase testing which is a legacy application and required a lot of manual work to maintain it."
"We like the RPA style and constant data flow. It keeps working when our employees aren't."
 

Cons

"The solution must provide more AI services."
"The licenses are too expensive for UiPath Platform. I do not think the pricing model of UiPath Platform is good."
"There is some scope for improvement, especially in the area of variables. Some variables are used in specific workflows and some variables are global. It would help if there was a repository that would showcase which variable is global and which is local to a workflow."
"With artificial intelligence or natural language processing, we need to get in touch with the servers, however, we cannot do it without getting a proper license."
"I would like it to better handle updates from other systems, whether it's SAP or a website."
"UiPath could have more robust, built-in auditing and logging. Currently, you need to build log messages into your automation to capture what's happening."
"While not a negative remark toward UiPath itself, our initial partner was limited in helping us achieve our goals. We are now directly working with UiPath support, which has been exceptional."
"When it comes to debugging, there is some improvement needed for UiPath compared to other RPA tools. There are features to edit the workflow or content of the automation file while we are debugging. For example, we have 10,000 lines of code that we have integrated by 10 different users. So, there is one integrated code and you are debugging it. After some time, you might find a line which is not an error. You may have forgotten to remove it or change the value to your desired criteria. It is really a pain to stop the entire debug session and just edit it, then start again at zero. It will do the same steps again just to reach that level or step where you were actually stuck previously. Whereas, in different automation tools, whether you are on the findings step or in-between a debug session, you can actually edit that information. This is good because sometimes the developer also forgets to add or remove certain values in-between a long code. I think this should be improved in UiPath. This should already be in consideration because I have been in touch with UiPath a couple of times because of this."
"There are some things coming down the line regarding licensing for UiPath Platform where our current license structure is being sunsetted. There's just a lot of confusion over that."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is cheap in Turkey."
"The licensing cost is very high."
"The solution's pricing is fair."
"The product is not the cheapest."
"We looked at Blue Prism and two other vendors. Based on our comparison, UiPath was the better solution with better licensing."
"It is the most user-friendly RPA platform, but it is also the most expensive RPA platform."
"I can estimate our licensing costs are approximately $100,000 USD per year."
"The ROI on all of our RPA use cases is from a throughput perspective. Processing time improvement is anywhere between 70 percent faster to 300 to 400 percent faster. For the right processes, there is even up to 7X to 10X improvement from a throughput perspective, even though it works through the UI."
"If you want to do a demo trial, it is a 30 days free."
