UiPath Platform Reviews

We are an EdTech company. We are working on a solution that allows us to customize our offering by reviewing the intelligence that we have about a person. For example, based on how a person learns, we can customize our offering. If a person is more tactile, we can give more quizzes and other things so that the person uses his or her hands to interact. It is a work in progress. We are still implementing it. It is a lot of work.

It is very easy to build automations with UiPath. It is completely visual. You can easily drag and drop and create a process. It is fairly easy. People who are not technical are also able to work very well. In education, we have to work with educators apart from techies. In EdTech, we have people who understand learning, so we are able to deploy them for this, and we are able to build a better solution. Techies will not be able to build it because they are not educators. We have educators with over 20 years of experience. If we train them to be techies, they will take 10 years, but if we ask techies to become educators, they might take 100 years. With UiPath, we are able to use the skills of our education specialists along with IT and other departments that are needed.

UiPath enables us to implement end-to-end automation. We can use AWS, Azure, or any other product. It is easy for us to integrate UiPath with our current offering. It is very easy to implement and go live.

We are working on using their AI functionality. We are trying to use the user data that we have to understand about a person and deliver a solution accordingly. For example, right now, in education, one size fits all, so there is one program that is directed at a hundred people. If you see Coursera, they have a completion ratio of around 3%. What we have observed is that when we use a solution like UiPath, for the test cases, the completion ratio is very good. It is close to 80%, which is very good. It is going in the right direction.

As far as our business is concerned, if a person does not complete the program, we do not get paid. There is a revenue leakage. By using UiPath, we are seeing a higher completion ratio. For example, if a person enrolls in a university and completes the program, he will pay up for four years. If he drops out in two months and finds that we are not useful, then obviously, we would lose the revenue for three years and ten months. It is helping us reduce wastage. It is helping us increase our revenues with minimal cost addition. The pricing of UiPath is negligible compared to the benefits. We can recover its monthly cost from the revenue that we get from just one student. We have close to 5,000 students. It is very good for us.

In terms of reduction in human error, when you are developing a program, initially, you will discover many errors that you have been missing out on, so human error will be reduced to minimal if your protocol is right. If you make a basic flaw in your design, then it is different, but otherwise, human error is more or less eliminated. There is close to 30% reduction in human error. Once we scale up, that percentage will go up and efficiency will go up.

We plan to automate all manual processes. Some of them are already automated using UiPath, some of them are in progress, and some of them will be automated in the future, but we will save a lot of human time. Human resources are very costly these days. It takes years and years of training for them to add to our business. UiPath has been good for a lot of things that we thought were not possible. We are able to do them after using UiPath. They are able to help us in finance. They are able to help us in HR. They are able to help us with contact centers.

One thing that we love about UiPath is that the pricing is very good. While we are developing, they have a free option. The Pro option is for just $420. Once we go live, we do not mind paying, so the price point is very good.

The platform is robust. Particularly in process mining and task mining areas, it is very good. We are working on integrating it with our solution, and the API is fairly easy for us to work with. 

UiPath is very good. They have OpenAI integration. It is a free integration. They have something for extracting data. They have something for copying text from an image. These are all free and ready to be used in automation.

They have a UiPath community. They have a lot of activities to engage people, and the community is growing. It is not as wide as some of the older products such as PHP or Java, but for AI, it is a very good community. They have DevCons that are very popular as well. Their community is all over the world. They have developers in India. They have developers in the Philippines.

We would like to see small modules that we can pick and use. Currently, we have to implement a lot of things. The platform is very good, but we would love to have some more templates that we can quickly implement. Other than that, it is very good. We do not require anything else. We are very happy with UiPath. It has been an eye-opener for us. We have discovered things that we thought were not possible earlier.

I have been using UiPath for 3 years.

It is completely stable. I have not had a single downtime in our development journey and usage. It is a very stable solution. I would rate it a ten out of ten in terms of stability.

It is easily scalable because of the way it is implemented. You start with a small license, and as your needs grow, you can keep taking more resources. UiPath also makes money as you grow. They scale it up for us, so we do not have to worry much about the product as such. It is quite scalable.

We have UiPath in multiple departments. We are an EdTech company, and we are using UiPath in the product department and the finance department. We are integrating some elements of HR. Customer support is the most vital component for us because you save a lot of manhours in customer support. Our tech teams are based out of India and the Philippines.

At the implementation stage, we have only 14 developers, but once implemented, it will be used for at least 5,000 customers.

They have been very prompt and helpful. They pay attention to detail. They are available. Their support is a class apart. There are no issues. I would rate them a ten out of ten.

We tried several products but did not implement any RPA. We tried Automation Anywhere and Microsoft Power Automate. We found UiPath to be the best in terms of features, community, and support. Some of the things that we tried did not work well for us.

UiPath is a class apart. Automation Anywhere is a standard solution. Overall, Automation Anywhere is very easy. It does not have a community. It does not have all the features. You are mostly platform-dependent when you are using Automation Anywhere, whereas UiPath has a community. You do not need UiPath to help you with everything. There is a lot of talent available. UiPath Academy is good. A lot of people get trained in UiPath. Pricing-wise also, UiPath is cheaper. It is also easy to implement. Automation Anywhere helps to get started very quickly, but we needed customization for our business. This is something where UiPath was better.

It is deployed on the cloud. Everything is on the cloud. UiPath has helped to minimize our on-prem footprint. Ever since COVID, everyone has been moving to a phase where they can be completely remote. We have been transitioning from on-premises for the last few years, and this is a step in the right direction. Of course, we need to do more, but it is going in the right direction.

The number of people required depends on what you are using it for. We are using it for our own custom solution. We have 14 resources working on UiPath for our solution, but a small enterprise does not need that many people. A smaller team is good enough to implement because it has everything. For example, if you want to integrate Salesforce, you can easily integrate Salesforce. You can go and click on the marketplace and just use Salesforce.

It does not require any maintenance from our side. Everything is automatically maintained. The platform is continuously upgraded in the backend. We do not need much maintenance. It is a cloud solution, and everything is maintained at the backend. You do not need any intervention.

It is super cheap for the value you get. Their free version is good enough to implement. When you are building a solution, it takes months of effort, and sometimes, it takes years. Its free version is good enough for you to test out everything, so when you are developing, you do not need to pay. After that, there is a Pro version at $420. It is reasonable for the value it is offering. Their basic support is also very good, which comes with the Pro version. 

The Enterprise license is suitable when you need a hundred automation licenses. It is also reasonable. They give good pricing when you negotiate.

I would highly recommend UiPath. You can definitely go for it. I would suggest being a little bit patient while implementing this solution initially because it can be overwhelming. There are so many options.

UiPath as a company is also good. They respond quickly. It has been a pleasure so far. Our product is not yet live. We are still working on it. It is a very big solution for us, and it will be a game changer for our business.

Overall, I would rate UiPath a ten out of ten.

I have not yet utilized the AI integration features of UiPath Platform as I am still exploring AI as a whole. I mainly make use of its unattended automation options, while attended automation usage is very minimal.

It has helped significantly in meeting our diverse business needs despite our complex organizational structure.

The code-free automation engine of UiPath Platform has helped users in our organization. The specific benefits I have observed are quick turnaround in developing scripts, integration with various systems, and successful PDF reading capabilities. The success rate is good, and based on that, we were able to deploy the bots quickly.

It has helped significantly in meeting our diverse business needs despite our complex organizational structure.

The main area where UiPath Platform can be improved is the cost; everything else is good.

We have been using UiPath Platform for four to five years.

I would rate the technical support by UiPath Platform as good, giving it a nine out of ten.

We have seen return on investment with improvements.

Based on my experience, I would recommend UiPath Platform to others, although we have evaluated other products which are more affordable. Since UiPath Platform is very expensive, we are exploring other products such as Kofax with their Tungsten Automation and RPA tools. I can also explore alternatives using APIs, mainly due to UiPath Platform's high cost.

I have been generally satisfied with UiPath Platform. Regarding the impact of UiPath Platform's analytics capabilities on our organization's decision-making processes, we are implementing only RPA based on particular process documents, not analytics. We achieved good efficiency gains using UiPath Platform, particularly in terms of improved turnaround time, though specific metrics cannot be revealed.

I would rate the product overall as nine out of ten, with the main drawback being its high cost compared to other products.

In eight years, I have done many different things with the UiPath Platform. I work as a software developer with the UiPath Platform in the insurance industry.

The UiPath Platform has helped meet diverse business needs. It helps in every way possible. Whatever use case I receive, I have always been able to perform with the UiPath Platform.

The best feature of UiPath Platform is that it is platform agnostic; it's an environment where you do not need to be dependent on any platform. The analytics dashboard enables us to showcase what has been done and what has not been done with the UiPath Platform.

There are a few areas in the UiPath Platform that could be improved. The OCR technology needs improvement, particularly for reading invoices, especially scanned invoices.

I have eight years of experience with the UiPath Platform.

The UiPath Platform is stable, which contributes to their continued success.

The UiPath Platform is definitely scalable, which contributes to their continued success.

The customer service and technical support for UiPath Platform are good. They are very quick to respond, and they have a strong support community.

Negative

The initial setup for UiPath Platform was pretty easy, though it depends on the organization.

The setup process depends on your network configuration and how you need to set up the Orchestrator, whether in the cloud or not. For a smaller organization, it could be quick, while for a larger scale organization, it might take longer. Security issues must also be considered. Implementation can take anywhere from a day for a single user to months for setting up a COE.

We have a team of 20 plus people involved with the deployment of UiPath Platform. The team is servicing an enterprise-level organization.

The UiPath Platform definitely helps improve efficiency. It helps save money, reduce time, and reduce errors, though this varies from process to process. These benefits cannot always be quantified as they differ across various processes from small to large. Sometimes the gains are non-materialistic, making them difficult to quantify.

Licensing for UiPath Platform is overly costly, particularly for an unattended bot. They should reduce the pricing to compete with Microsoft Power Automate.

Microsoft provides many different features, which is where UiPath Platform needs to focus its competition. The UiPath Platform has more years of experience and is more robust, working seamlessly with various applications. Power Automate currently has many issues to address, though they perform better in Microsoft environments.

I would rate UiPath Platform nine out of ten overall.

We use the solution for robotic process automation. We use it across the value chain for our business. We've used it in accounts, including cash management, and in HR for management tasks and IT for password resetting. 

The automation has been quite useful. It's been helpful in our journey towards transformation. 

I've used this solution for a while and I utilize the whole tool and get a lot of benefits out of it. 

It helps save time. We've had efforts that would take more than four hours a day, yet, when done through UiPath, it takes less than a minute.

The useability is very good - even for non-technical people. I'm an accountant by education and now I'm also an automation expert by profession. Its interface is user-friendly to those of us who are non-technical.

Anyone who wants to automate any task that is rule-based and repetitive can do it through UiPath.   

We can use the solution for automation emails or notifications.

It enables end-to-end automation. We developed a use case where people from different business units have large amounts of data, Excel files, we've made it so that we can combine it and enter it into the ERP system. Everything can be checked via the rule book and can create the report and send back the information to the customer. It simplifies the data and organizes and compiles it for them. Users have gotten the benefit of five FTEs by using UiPath. It saved many man-hours. 

I haven't used the UiPath Community too much. I often Google questions to find answers. It is a good place to go for development work, though. 

It reduces our footprint. We historically did have many items on-prem. I like it on-prem and on the desktop.

It can reduce the cost of digital transformation. Where processes can have faster response times, UiPath helps with efficiency. However, if the response time of the application is slow, and we need to provide workarounds, it isn't helpful in that it hasn't efficiently helped us save time.

UiPath reduces human error by 100%. Whatever you give to the robot, it will do it correctly. That said, it needs to be programmed correctly - if it's programmed wrong, it will do it 100% wrong. If it's programmed right, it does it 100% right. 

It's freed up human time. It's not well-utilized in that sense. It should be available to everyone so that they can find ways to save time by creating their own automation according to what they need.

There are a few shortcomings. For example, even in their latest version, there are still older features even though they've introduced new ones in parallel. They should do something where they update the solution and then close off the older version after a year or something like that. That might help with standardization. 

Sometimes it is very useful for automation. However, sometimes it is really, really frustrating when it is unable to manage the more dynamic items. When an element is stable, it's great. When it comes to changes to IDs or the dynamics of the website, it lets us down in front of our customers. It needs to be better at handling volumes of data. 

Automation on the cloud has had issues. It can be slower. 

The Academy classes could be improved. There should be a portal for use cases. There should be more business examples.

They should offer different licensing tiers, especially for daily individual users. 

I've been using the solution since 2016, more than five years. 

It is a stable product. There were some issues while interacting with different applications. For example, with Microsoft, we have issues with One Drive. When UiPath is working on a file, it cannot quickly get to the file. We need to move the file to a local drive before processing the data. Microsoft applications seem to give it trouble. 

We have multinational business units. Company-wide, maybe 500 people are using it. Where I am, there may be a team of ten people working with it and 50 to 60 automations. The solution is in multiple locations and departments. 

The solution is scalable. It depends on how an organization wants to utilize it. 

Technical support is very flexible, however, they do not respond quickly. Sometimes they just tell us "this is how it works" and we have to try to explain our framework.

Neutral

I have also tried Blue Prism. I didn't work with it much; I just studied it theoretically. 

I also tried to work with Power Automate. Initially, it wasn't very good, however, later, it began to echo the style and functionality of UiPath.

UiPath is easy to use and easy to get started with. 

The deployment was a long journey. I was one of the first people in Pakistan to use it. Now, once you get a license, you can deploy it in two weeks. However, it depends on the complexity of the processes in terms of deploying automation.

We have around ten people maintaining the solution. It requires a lot of maintenance. If anything needs to be changed in the target application, it needs to be incorporated into the robot. 

Someone told us you do need three to five years before you get an ROI. However, in our first year, we were able to save more than 8,000 hours. 

The solution is on the expensive side. 

There should be standardized packages. If an organization already has a license with UiPath, UiPath should offer special licenses to each employee so that each employee has their own UiPath automation capabilities for each of their individual tasks.

There should be regional packages and costs. Different regions cannot necessarily afford UiPath. What is affordable in Europe may not be affordable somewhere else. 

We're a UiPath customer. We serve internal customers with robots.

We do not use the UiPath AI functionality, however, we are on a journey towards building our own internal solution. 

I'd like to see UiPath cut the cost of their license. For end-to-end automation, for developers, I understand why it needs to be expensive, however, for day-to-day users, it should be cheap. 

I'd recommend the solution to new users. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. It's still the best out of all related products.

We are using UiPath for traditional RPA automations at the moment. 

We are automating rule-based, repetitive business processes, but we're interested in the automation opportunities AI capabilities present. Of course, transactional automation has limitations, but in areas where it is applicable, we have been able to use it effectively.

The overall UiPath platform, including the Orchestrator, Studio, and the robots, is valuable. UiPath's competitors don't do orchestration as well.

The licensing policies and concepts change almost yearly, leading to difficult negotiations. All components are licensed differently, and it would be more straightforward to adopt new features if they were included in the same bundle.

I have used UiPath for six or seven years.

The solution is very stable for us.

It is scalable according to our needs.

I rate UiPath support eight out of 10. UiPath is customer-oriented and attends to the customers well. They're helpful when we have challenges and are open to our ideas. We've had challenges with technical support solving some tickets, but it's been excellent overall. 

Positive

We installed the on-premise version in our environment seven years ago. It was very straightforward at that time.

I was involved in the deployment process by overseeing it.

We have seen a significant return on investment. The easiest to measure is the hours saved from manual work. We've saved the equivalent of 200 FTEs worth of hours each year. There are also less measurable benefits, such as improved quality and faster throughput.

Our primary use case is IDP. We're in the Fed market, so a lot of it is all IDP driven. AI and automation are priorities. We're not exclusively a UiPath shop, but we're shifting to utilize it more because we know there are opportunities, especially in the realm of document capture.

For us, it requires fewer resources, and the time to get to the production environment is quicker. It hasn't significantly impacted our stakeholders yet, but people know the brand. When we talk with customers, they ask if we know about about UiPath and if we're a partner. 

We're moving away from the current platforms because they're less robust. The RPA tools we've used previously haven't kept up with the pace of change. UiPath is a leader that has continued to progress with RPA development and invest in improvements. 

We're still in the early stages with UiPath, but two things that will help are the Copilot and the Autopilot. We'll be able to generate new processes based on the learning that's taken place. It will have a significant impact on the things we do. Generative AI is not new to us. We've had these discussions for a while, and our CEO is well-versed in generative AI. Software companies are coming to realize the value and implement it. 

UiPath has spent the money on research and generating libraries. The out-of-the-box libraries are extensive. In the past, we used standard capture products, where we had to create all of the extractions in the zones and all those things. UiPath offers faster implementation. 

UiPath's pricing could be improved. The margins for us as a bottom-level tier partner are not great, which can be a hindrance, particularly when we present it to the customer. Other than that, I don't have any areas of improvement at the moment due to our limited experience. Maybe after six months to a year, we might have more feedback.

I have been using UiPath for several years, although I only started with this company a couple of months ago. Previously, I led a team for four years with another organization.

The stability of the solution has been good. I haven't experienced any platform issues. Any issues that arise typically relate to coding or interactions with third-party vendors.

Reflecting on my previous organization, UiPath was able to scale effectively.

I rate UiPath support eight out of 10. My previous experience with UiPath's customer service was really good. The support from the sales and presales levels and the technical specialists was excellent. They were all willing to help and work with us.

Positive

We eventually switched from our previous solution because it did not keep up with the pace of change. The company did not invest in their product and failed to keep up with the latest and greatest technologies.

It's too early to tell if there's been a return on investment with UiPath.

Pricing is a significant area for improvement. We see little margin as a bottom-level tier partner, which makes it challenging when communicating pricing to the customer.

I would rate UiPath an eight out of ten.

We have done work for customer success by collecting information from various sources such as email, IVR, and chat. Our solution performs classification, sentiment analysis using the AI of UiPath, and then data validation and posting. We've implemented this for one of the biggest banks in India.

Our admin team benefits from an internally created ticketing system, which offloads repetitive tasks and improves performance. This facilitates time savings and enhances overall satisfaction within the employee base.

Customers find numerous features of UiPath valuable, including Document Understanding (DU) and AI functionalities. They leverage it for repetitive tasks and beyond.

Customer education is crucial. Currently, there's a time lag in training, which eventually impacts the customers. All stakeholders should receive updates simultaneously.

We have been a UiPath partner for more than six years.

We face no major challenges regarding stability.

Investments in hardware are necessary for scalability, especially when dealing with AI and audio functionalities.

The UiPath support team in India is excellent, offering professional services and tech support. I rate it eight out of ten.

Positive

We've been using UiPath from the beginning. We were also Automation Anywhere partners but decided to stick with UiPath.

While it's difficult to quantify precisely, we've observed a 10% to 20% cost savings.

Pricing is high, affecting renewals significantly. Many small companies are hesitant due to the increased cost compared to past discounts.

I would rate UiPath an eight out of ten.

We're still in the exploration and discovery phase. We're learning about UiPath's capabilities and how they fit into the overall picture. We haven't separated AI from our normal process at this point. I work in our company's contact center, and we engage them in many different ways. We talk to management about their problems, report large volumes of transactions, and work side-by-side with the agency to find trouble cases and where they frequently perform manual tasks.

UiPath has helped our customer success unit and various technical teams. We were trying to understand the industry's current state and the direction our peers are taking. We're not so focused on eliminating positions as we are on using UiPath to free staff to work on additional tasks. There are always new tasks in the contact centers, and if we don't need to add staff, we can redirect them to other areas.

We were looking at implementing most of the features. I don't look at it with a specific lens but try to understand where all the tools are and how they can best help us in each situation. I don't have a favorite tool but try to understand how to use each one in combination to give the utmost business value.

Being able to escalate quickly is not a strength for UiPath and may be a focus area.

My department has been using UiPath for about two months.

The people from UiPath, from customer success to various technical teams, have been very helpful. When we open tickets, they respond quickly and escalate to the appropriate teams.

Positive

We did have a different solution. Deploying the solution to our agents' desktops was essential, and UiPath's advancement in that space and innovation position was enticing.

The initial deployment was fine. We had an on-premise deployment and weren't using the Automation Suite. It didn't work for us at the time. There wasn't a lot of flexibility there. I understand that it's changed, but we've already deployed on-prem. We've grown, and the complexity is through the roof, so now we think it's worth transitioning to an alternative solution.  That part has not been great, but at least there are places for us to go.

UiPath is expensive compared to competitors. We're examining where the value comes in and their ability to continue being a leader to justify the cost.

I rate UiPath eight out of 10.

For two years, I have focused on automating workflows related to processing documents in formats like PDF, Excel, and CSV. Using the document understanding feature, we have handled forecast orders and purchase order invoices. 

If you use input files like Excel, PDF, and CSV, we can automate file validation, such as checking data accuracy, format compliance, or missing information. It's integrated with Boomi, so after the files are validated, they're sent to Boomi for further processing. 

Boomi provides us with the RTF file, and we use UiPath to validate its contents and correctness. It automates the process of converting the RTF file into an Excel file. Another process is remittance, where we can get files from clients, validate them, and submit them to the credit managers for correction.

UiPath reduces human error by eliminating manual work and intervention. Some human intervention is still necessary, but it has been reduced. Realizing UiPath's benefits takes some time because you may have some issues after the initial deployment. The UiPath Academy was helpful. I took some courses and achieved developer certificates. I'm still learning. 

It hasn't saved time in my work because I'm still spending a lot of time learning the software. It was new, so learning and implementing those things in my work takes time.

My favorite feature is Document Understanding. I haven't used most of the new features, such as AI-enhanced document processing and process mining. The document understanding feature is especially valuable because I can use it to extract and process invoice data efficiently. It enables the quick and accurate handling of structured and unstructured data. 

The flexibility to work with templates and machine learning models for document extraction has been helpful when dealing with various invoice formats and forecast orders. Data extraction from PDF has been smooth, especially with UiPath's capability to handle scanned documents using OCR and AI-based models. 

The taxonomy manager lets you define the structure and categorize data from multiple document types. AI center integration allows continuous improvement in document extraction accuracy by training models based on historical data. I have utilized AI and machine learning models in UiPath specifically for processing complex PDF and Excel documents. 

UiPath's AI capabilities, such as pre-trained invoices and receipts models, have effectively extracted structured and unstructured documents. For example, when processing purchase orders, the AI model identified key fields, such as invoice numbers, dates, line items, and currency details, with high accuracy. I have found the machine learning models to be especially useful when working with documents that have different formats. In some cases, additional training or validation was required to fine-tune the models for complex or irregular documents. Overall, AI models and document understanding are my favorite features.

UiPath is highly user-friendly because it has drag-and-drop functionality to design and develop complex workflows without much coding knowledge. This has been particularly beneficial when working with different document formats. UiPath's built-in tools and integration capabilities simplify the automation process, leading to greater efficiency.

We have end-to-end automation and integration with other applications. For example, we have portal automation that's end-to-end. We use it to log in to the website and sign in to different accounts. It enters the CAPTCHA, downloads the files, and logs out. It can complete the automation without human intervention. 

UiPath has many resources online. We use its academy and online documentation. If we face any challenges, we can find an answer on the forum or one of these resources. I've never had a problem finding solutions to problems. They have the best resources.

I would love more integration with Third-Party applications. Expanding the library of pre-built, plug-and-play connectors to include more industry-specific applications.

I have worked with UiPath for two years. 

I've never experienced lagging or crashing with UiPath. The app has never given me trouble. 

Installing the community version of UiPath was easy and only took five to ten minutes. 

I am using the free community version. The enterprise version is obviously a little expensive. 

UiPath is a software tool used in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) that allows you to build automated workflows to handle repetitive manual tasks in your daily work. It can automate tasks across various environments including Windows, Citrix, and using image recognition. Additionally, UiPath is incorporating artificial intelligence and machine learning, with generative AI specifically enabling you to develop automation in a wider range of fields like healthcare, telecommunication, and manufacturing.

UiPath offers deployment flexibility: we can install it on our servers on-premises or choose their cloud service, UiPath Automation Cloud. While they provide their option, UiPath is also compatible with other cloud platforms for deployment.

Building automation is easier with UiPath than with Automation Anywhere or Blue Prism. UiPath's centralized platform offers a more intuitive user experience, and its extensive online community provides readily available answers to your questions.

It allows for the creation of end-to-end automation workflows, even for tasks with imperfect results. For instance, if an AI extracts data from a PDF with a low confidence level, UiPath can trigger the creation of a ticket in an action center. This ticket would then be assigned to a human for review, who can confirm the data's accuracy or return the document to the AI model for improvement.

Over the past nine years as a UiPath user, I've witnessed a wealth of new features emerge. The UiPath user community has been an invaluable resource throughout this journey, providing both learning opportunities and solutions to our automation challenges.

UiPath has been a game-changer for us, reducing costs, improving scalability, minimizing human error, and saving significant time. Their user-friendly platform allows us to automate processes in as little as 15 days, and with the free UiPath Academy courses and community edition, we have everything we need to learn and practice at no cost.

UiPath Academy offers beginner-friendly courses with step-by-step instructions and video tutorials, making it a great resource for those new to the world of UiPath and automation.

UiPath speeds up and reduces the cost of digital transformation andreduces human errors by automating repetitive tasks where errors can be caused due to fatigue or illness.

UiPath helps free up our staff time to work on other tasks. What would take a human, for example, ten minutes to complete, takes the robot seconds. Ithelps save our organization money.

It is easy to learn.

UiPath takes the complexity out of automation by using a low-code approach. Instead of writing intricate macro scripts, we simply drag and drop pre-built elements to create our automation, making it accessible even for those without extensive coding experience.

UiPath's extensive built-in features, like communication mining, can be overwhelming to learn due to the sheer volume. This learning curve applies across platforms; switching to another company would require mastering new skills like business analysis and product management. Additionally, the modern analysis process demands deep dives into code and solution levels, making it a complex task to achieve.

There's a need for greater emphasis on applying AI and machine learning to enhance technologies like Optical Character Recognition, fingerprint scanners, and facial recognition systems.

I have been using UiPath for almost nine years.

If one of our machines goes down, UiPath will resolve the issue within 24 hours.

The technical support is good.

While we've experimented with Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism, and Microsoft Power Automate, they lacked UiPath's ability to centralize all our automation initiatives. Choosing the right RPA tool requires careful consideration of cost, functionalities, and the specific features each platform offers.

The cloud deployment is straightforward. The logs are all maintained in the orchestrator. 

The return on investment from automation grows with the number of processes automated. This translates to greater cost and time savings, freeing up resources to tackle new projects that can generate additional revenue.

UiPath is expensive. The license types depend on the deployment method and the number of bots required.

I would rate UiPath eight out of ten. UiPath is user-friendly, easy to learn, and manage.

UiPath introduced communication mining in the last two years. We do use it but the use cases are primarily for the health sector and insurance sector but they have been steadily declining.

UiPath's cloud deployment offers a hassle-free experience – they manage the infrastructure and maintenance, so we don't need to worry about any hardware or upkeep on our side.

Six people in our organization use UiPath.

While running UiPath on-premises with a high volume of bots might involve some minor maintenance tasks for us, the cloud-based option takes care of everything – UiPath handles all the maintenance on their end.

UiPath offers a multifaceted platform, requiring users to learn distinct aspects based on their roles. Developers will delve into coding and automation creation, IT business analysts will focus on process design and optimization, product managers will manage the automation lifecycle, and salespeople will highlight the product's capabilities to potential clients.
