UiPath Platform Reviews

We use it mostly for the banking and insurance domains. We are a service-based company and the tools we use depend on our clients' requirements.

UiPath provides scalability, quality, and a high level of accuracy. It has definitely reduced human error.

It also helps minimize the on-premises footprint, which is important for our clients' environments.

The most valuable features include

• multi-bot architecture
• UiPath Studio
• Test Manager.

It is easy to build automations with this solution as well. We are able to implement end-to-end automation.

There are also build connectors for Salesforce and SAP. Before the connectors, we could only automate the GUI. Now, it is very easy to integrate on the back end as well.

The UiPath Academy courses are also helpful. When a feature or release comes out, they demonstrate them in the Academy.

And if there are any issues, the UiPath community forum helps us to check whether others are also facing these issues. There are a lot of benefits from that.

For some of the cognitive features we have to learn the integration side. Other than that, everything is fine.

I have been using UiPath for nearly three years.

The LTS version is very stable.

It is also definitely scalable. I would recommend it for any size of company, from small to large. For example, if a small company only needs UiPath Studio, they can have it. They don't need UiPath Orchestrator. They can run things with Studio only. There are a lot of options with UiPath.

Their support is good to have, especially for priority issues. 

One thing that would be helpful is if the support team could quickly help us when we raise a ticket. It takes them at least one or two hours to get back to us. With Automation Anywhere, if there is a Severity 1 issue, their support responds within 15 minutes.

Setting it up is very easy.

The amount of time it takes depends on the client's security requirements. Some teams have restrictions and documentation on how things should be done. But once everything has been verified, deployment will take one to two hours.

Once it's deployed, it's the validation checks that take some time but it depends upon the project: the supporting files and checking that all the integrations are correctly mapped.

In terms of project deployment, we generally have three people involved. One of them will completely handle monitoring and supporting, as well as the Control Room and any logs or administrative tasks. The other two handle change requests.

As for maintenance, our setup is on-premises and we have an internal team that takes care of situations when the server is down. They will restart it and do patch updates, which they will inform us about.

We are using the Enterprise version. We are exploring using it in the cloud, but some of our banking clients do not accept the cloud because of security issues so we go for on-prem only in those cases.

We are not fully using UiPath's AI functionality but we are doing some PoCs, based on our clients' requirements, to check the feasibility. For that, we are using the Community Edition. As for UiPath speeding up digital transformation, I'm not sure. It depends on the process involved.

Overall, I don't see a need for any additional features. I don't have any difficulty using UiPath.

I did a proof of concept for a music industry client. It went well, and the client adopted UiPath. 

UiPath improved lots of features, like sequencing, recording, etc.

I had some issues with the ERP Automation features, and the setup is complex. 

UiPath is stable. 

UiPath projects are highly scalable. There are lots of customization options and ways to easily scale your existing bots. 

I haven't contacted UiPath support because the solution is stable and doesn't require support in most cases. The UiPath community is strong, and you can find answers from multiple places online. 

As a project consultant, I analyze the client's applications and set up everything for them. The initial setup is time-consuming. UiPath involves a longer setup process than other RPA tools.

I rate UiPath a five out of ten for affordability. UiPath costs a bit more than other tools like Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere. 

I rate UiPath a seven out of ten. UiPath offers many customization options. I would recommend it to clients who want to do high-quality processes and complex use cases. You also must consider your budget because the license cost is a little higher than average. 

We use the solution as an automation platform that even those without coding knowledge can use for automation-related tasks, such as PDF and Excel extractions. We're an IT services provider and use the tool for insurance data and other client requirements.

UiPath significantly improved our organization's productivity and strengthened our client relationships.

The solution reduces the cost of digital transformation, and we can now expect to see a 300-400% ROI. Doing so did not require expensive or complex application upgrades or IT support. The complexity of performing automations depends on the project size and ranges from very easy to moderately difficult on larger projects.    

The product reduced human error, improving the quality of service we can offer our clients and resulting in higher output accuracy. 

UiPath freed up employee time due to reduced errors, less human involvement, and less manual work. The time saved depends on the project size, but generally, it's approximately 40-50%.  

UiPath is straightforward and easy to use, even for those without coding knowledge. 

The solution's drag-and-drop functionality and templates save a lot of time.

We can easily build automations, removing humans from the loop, reducing human error, and saving time, to deliver positive outcomes for our clients.  

The solution enables us to implement end-to-end automation, which is excellent for reducing human error as there is no human involvement. It also reduces our dependency on humans and rapidly provides us with extracted data without manual work. End-to-end automation is essential because it allows us to carry out projects even if no team members are present, making it easier to conform to client deadlines.    

It would be good if the product could work locally, without depending on the internet, as connectivity issues can cause problems.

We have been using the solution for two years. 

The solution is highly stable; I rate it 10 out of 10 for stability.

UiPath is very scalable; I rate it 10 out of 10 for scalability.

The technical support is excellent and responsive. 

Positive

UiPath is the first RPA solution I've ever used. 

I was involved in the development, testing, and deployment. The initial setup was neither remarkably straightforward nor complex; it was moderate.

Our ROI is in the region of 40-50%. 

The product is very affordable, not costly at all.

The solution is very cost-effective for us.

We evaluated a few options, including Microsoft Power Automate, but it's a little more expensive than UiPath. UiPath also looks more modern, has a vast developer community, and excellent customer support.

I rate the solution 10 out of 10. 

Being a part of the UiPath user community is valuable; sometimes, when we encounter issues or have queries, we can quickly get a response from the community.  

My team and I have used the vendor's UiPath Academy courses to improve our skills and knowledge of the solution. This was especially useful when I first started to use the tool, as I needed to gain experience in RPA. Anyone can take a UiPath Academy course and learn to use the platform without any additional hassle or training, regardless of coding skills and previous experience.  

My advice to others evaluating the solution is that I rate it very highly, and it's great for automating manual work. 

I use UiPath to automate getting the relevant data from Excel and PDF files and for normalizing the data.

It helps reduce human error in data retrieval from PDFs and Excel documents. We get accurate output that is easy for us to make decisions on, helping us move forward to next steps. It makes us more productive.

End-to-end processes are useful for us because they give us positive output and increase our business productivity as well as staff availability. It saves a lot of time and human resources.

The amount of time an automation saves depends on the complexity of the task. Some save a lot, some save less, but it works well for us.

Automating tasks makes them more scalable and makes our client relationships better. We are able to provide solutions in less time than we expected.

The most valuable feature is the ability to retrieve data from Excel files, including filtering the data. It is also straightforward and easy to navigate when building automations and makes our tasks easy to perform. It is very easy to use without any prior coding knowledge.

Another important aspect is the UiPath community. It's critical when you face an issue. You can post it to the community and there are always people there who are ready to solve your issues. It works well in every scenario, and I would give a 10 out of 10 to the user community.

The UiPath Academy also helps a lot. I did a course last year because I wanted to know more about the new features. For anyone who wants to improve their skills related to UiPath, they should do courses from the UiPath Academy. It's very helpful.

The user interface needs a little bit of improvement because it looks a little cheap due to being a very old tool. Otherwise, it works well.

I would also like to see the ability for applications to work offline. Currently, they only work when online. If that is possible, that should be included in a future release.

I have been using UiPath for the last two and a half years.

The stability is good, a 10 out of 10.

The scalability is also good. I give it a 10 out of 10 for scalability.

Last year I faced an issue related to UiPath and I posted a question on the developer community forum. After approximately two to three hours I got a response and that was all I required to resolve the issue.

Positive

I used Microsoft Power Automate. I switched because UiPath is cheaper and it has a large developer community.

It gives a great ROI. If you invest $1,000 in a project, it returns approximately two to three times, or $2,000 to $3,000. 

The time it takes to set up an automation depends on the project size or complexity. It can take 15 or 20 minutes, and sometimes, it takes hours or a whole day.

Sometimes maintenance is required because it slows down due to new features or an upgrade going on. 

We have about 10 to 15 people maintaining things, doing testing or helping when anyone faces an issue. We have 200 to 300 end-users in our organization.

I'm using it for the automation of various tasks. It depends on the tasks the users define. If we have a task that results in human error, or if we want a positive output in a small amount of time, or if we are working on huge amounts of data, we use UiPath.

It helps a lot in eliminating human error, by up to 50 percent for us, and in providing stability compared to other tools. It provides high performance and makes it easier to get positive output from automation.

If you have a huge data set and you want to upgrade results, the AI capabilities in UiPath reduce human errors and give a positive result in a small amount of time.

It also helps speed up digital transformation and has freed up some employees' time by as much as 70 to 80 percent.

We are using the PDF functions for scraping. Also, security-wise, it is very easy.

The ease of building automations is a 10 out of 10. It automates our tasks faster and gives us positive and accurate results. The UI is easy to use and does not require much training. A new user can use it.

Also, the UiPath user community is very good. If you have any questions, you can ask the community and a developer will help you as soon as possible. It has been a great experience for me.

I did one of the UiPath Academy courses last year to improve my skills in automation. It helps a lot. I would recommend the Academy to everyone who is new to the tool. Take a course and you will learn a lot. It helps improve your skills, enhance your knowledge, and know about new features.

In terms of performance, sometimes it slows down when the internet connectivity is poor. They need to optimize it a little.

I have been using UiPath for the last two and a half years, approximately.

The stability is very good. It's a 10 out of 10 for reliability.

It's very scalable.

I have used Microsoft Power Automate, but UiPath is far better. UiPath is easier to use, easy to implement, and cheaper than Microsoft.

The setup is not very complex and not very easy. Overall, it's moderately straightforward. Every new user needs a little training but can use it after some time.

The amount of time it takes depends on the size of the project. Sometimes we can deploy in a few minutes and sometimes it takes up to two hours. The number of people involved also depends on the project. Sometimes, one person can deploy it and sometimes a team is required.

Implementation is done in-house.

It provides accurate results and great ROI. That's why we are using this tool for the end-to-end automation of tasks.

It is cheaper than Microsoft Power Automate and saves us between 50 and 70 percent on costs. UiPath's pricing is moderate and something everyone can afford.

We didn't evaluate any other options because UiPath offers every feature that is valuable and useful in automation.

Between the great ROI, speed, and AI capabilities, everything about it is positive for me.

I'm using it for PDF automation.

It helps us save 60 to 70 percent of the time we used to take and provides accurate results. 

It also helps with increasing productivity. Now that work is automated, it has eliminated any manual work within these processes and reduced human error.

It also provides end-to-end automation, which is very important for getting results very quickly and saving time. We can use that saved time for other productive work. 

UiPath also helps us in reducing digital costs.

It provides various services such as PDF automation and AI capabilities that help in creating accurate results. We are using the AI for chatbot integrations and handling customer interactions. It helps eliminate manual work.

The email automations are also very valuable.

It also provides a user-friendly interface so that anyone can use it. 

Sometimes it takes time to provide results.

I have been using UiPath for almost a year.

It's very stable and provides accurate results for our organization.

It's very scalable, as more than 250 users in our organization use this tool, and we have not faced any issues with it.

The customer support is very good and resolves our queries immediately. It has been very good for us.

Positive

This is the first automation tool we have used.

It requires IT support.

It's saving employee time, which helps with ROI, but the cost is higher. But the results it provides are enough for the tool to give us ROI.

It's costly compared to other tools in the market. Other than that, it is very good.

As I noted, sometimes it takes time to get the results, but it depends upon the query or task I'm using it for. Other than this, it's very good and I'm happy with this tool. It works well for me and I would recommend that others use it.

My company builds software for various businesses, and we use UiPath to automate data entry, perform repetitive tasks, and develop and deploy the software. We also use UiPath for document management, reporting, and analytics.

We use UiPath in multiple departments, including marketing and analytics. There are 17 users. Most of them are software engineers and developers, but our entire executive team also has access. 

UiPath has significantly increased our efficiency by automating repetitive, time-consuming tasks, such as data entry, processing, and testing. This has freed up our team, giving us more time to focus on other tasks. 

It has improved accuracy because automated tasks have a high degree of virtualization, reducing human error. We used to make a lot of errors, but a robot doesn't make mistakes. It doesn't make those mistakes. I estimate it reduced our errors by around 80 percent, especially in data entry. 

We've also saved a lot of cash because we previously needed to hire many employees to do this work. We're spending much less money because most of these jobs are automated. It has improved our data management by enhancing the process of managing and organizing software documentation. Compared to what we spend on UiPath, we've saved a good amount of money. I don't have an exact figure, but it's at least a 40 percent reduction in labor costs. 

Automation has decreased our on-premise footprint, which has helped us because we don't have a sizeable in-office workforce, especially since the pandemic started. Things have been hard, but we had already adopted UiPath before COVID. It helped us during that time because we could still provide the same quality while laying off employees. 

The UiPath Academy has been helpful. The courses helped me in the beginning because I didn't have a lot of knowledge about using this kind of software. I had to go through the learning process. It took some time before we could start using it. So, the whole team went through the training first. 

The most significant benefit of UiPath Academy is that it provides a ton of information quickly. We could quickly grasp how to use the platform and learn to do so many things from a short training course. It provided significant value by showing us the platform and how we could use it. 

UiPath has sped up our digital transformation. Now everything is so much easier. Everything is fast and automated. We don't have to repeat the same things we have already done. It gets the data and processes it quickly. 

The automation capabilities allow us to automate repetitive tasks that were so time-consuming. Our data entry process is much smoother and more efficient, and testing is quick. We don't require as many people to do these tasks, which has simplified everything. 

They have robust libraries we can use to automate a wide range of tasks, and UiPath integrates with multiple technologies. It's an excellent platform with many valuable features we find useful in our business.

The UiPath community is excellent. When we have a problem, we typically don't open a support ticket first. We go to the community and ask questions to find the solution. In many cases, someone else has had the same problem, and their question was answered. The community is a good place to get help with any issues you're experiencing. There is a vast knowledge base, and you can browse the questions people are asking. It provides a lot of value. 

Handling unstructured data is challenging because UiPath works best with structured data. It could also be better at handling complex tasks. UiPath doesn't work as expected when automating tasks that require a high degree of decision-making.

I have used UiPath for almost two years.

UiPath is stable. Depending on a platform like this can be scary at times because it would greatly affect our business if it ever went down. That said, nothing bad has happened so far. It has been working well for us. We haven't had any issues, but it's important to be cautious. 

You can use UiPath to scale your business. It's scalable. 

I always go to the UiPath community to get answers, so I've never spoken to technical support.

I was on the team deciding to go with UiPath, so I've been there through the selection and everything else to this point. The initial setup was straightforward. It didn't give us much trouble. After we purchased UiPath, it was already deployed on the cloud as a SaaS product. 

We announced to the team that we would be using the platform and then onboarded and trained everyone. It took a day or two to get started. After that, we began training. The only maintenance required is when we need to change things in the automated processes. If everything is working well, we don't need to maintain anything. 

We've seen a good return on our investment. I can't quantify it precisely, but it has had a positive impact relative to the money we spent. We've reduced labor time and costs by at least 40 percent. 

It might be a little pricey for some small businesses. When we were getting started, we had a difficult time deciding to go for it because of the pricing. Our company wasn't generating as much revenue, so it was a little high for our budget then. We can handle it today. 

However, the cost might be prohibitive for small startups. UiPath should consider plans for businesses that are just getting started and would like to use the platform.

I rate UiPath a nine out of ten. We have a few issues here and there, but they've done an excellent job overall. It's an innovative product. This is an excellent tool if you want to save time and money by automating repetitive tasks. 

We primarily use UiPath for automation processes. One of the major use cases is the approval system that we have. Our system goes through a lot of approval and workflow steps, and we have automated the entire process using UiPath.

We are using UiPath for most of the automation processes. We have reduced a lot of resources that we previously had, and it has improved the efficiency of the operating model that we have. Earlier, if it took around a week, we are now able to achieve the same process within three days or so. It has basically cut the time in half.

It helps us to achieve end-to-end automation. If something involves manual intervention, it's always prone to human error. End-to-end automation completely removes all human errors and also saves a lot of time and manpower for a specific process or task. So, overall, we improve the efficiency of the processes that we implement.

It has reduced the time taken to develop something, as well as the error rate. Earlier, we used to have a lot of human errors because there was a manual intervention, but now, there are no errors, and everything operates smoothly.

We automated the complete approval workflow system. Every operation has a different set of child operations that occurs as a change reaction. UiPath helped a lot in implementing this in a completely automated way. With the flow chart wizard available within UiPath, we are able to achieve this pretty easily with less effort. It gives us more results with less effort.

It definitely reduced the costs of digital transformation because we have cut down a lot of resources that we had earlier. We were able to cut down the cost by half. There is definitely a reduction in price. Doing digital transformation didn't require expensive or complex application upgrades or IT application support.

It has reduced human error a lot. Previously, with our approval workflow, at every step, a human had to come, approve the request, and perform a lot of manual steps after the approval. All those steps are now automated, and everything happens within the expected time period. There is totally no human error because it follows a set of rules, and it always knows what to do during an approval operation. There is a 40% reduction in the errors that we had.

It has definitely freed up a lot of employee time. It has saved us 12 hours per week. There are cost savings and time savings. It has reduced the human resources required as well as the time consumption. We are now able to invest our time in other areas, and let UiPath take care of the heavy lifting.

The Orchestrator and the Studio are the features that I personally enjoy using.

It's pretty easy to build automations. Earlier, we had to do a lot of manual work, but with the introduction of UiPath, everything became very easy. The drag-and-drop components have made our lives much easier. Even non-technical teams are able to build an automation workflow within hours.

Their user community has been very good. For any questions that I post, I get the answers pretty quickly. They're friendly as well.

UiPath can probably work on improving the AI features. We tried UiPath's AI functionality in our automation program. We did some research on that, but right now, nothing is in production. When we did some research, we weren't getting the expected results. We weren't completely satisfied with the results, so we put it aside. It could be a drawback on our side in terms of learning the tool.

In terms of additional features, UiPath already has a plethora of options. All our needs are fulfilled by the features that are currently available.

It has been 15 to 16 months.

So far, we haven't faced any downtime in terms of using UiPath. It has always been up. It also has a plan for exposing multiple endpoints so that if one goes down, we're able to use the other one. So, the stability has definitely been great, and we haven't seen any downtime until now.

We use it as an internal application. There are around 500 to 800 members who use the tool in terms of the automation process. It has been good for our use case.

We have deployed everything in the cloud, and we also have the ability to integrate it with other AWS services. For the environment basically, we have different stages. One is the beta stage and the other is the production stage. In the beta stage, we do internal testing, and once it's ready, we deploy to the production environment where it communicates with other services like AWS.

We don't have any plans to increase the usage of UiPath at this time. If we need to expose anything to public-facing customers, we might think about it.

Their technical support has been great. For any doubts we have, we reach out to them via email or via a personal contact for our organization. Whenever we need support, they are totally willing to help us out. I would rate their support a nine out of ten.

Positive

We had an in-house solution that we developed, but it was not scalable, and there was a lot of maintenance work that we had to do to make it work. So, we migrated to UiPath. That was the only solution that we worked on. We did the research, and we found out that UiPath is a leading tool in the industry for RPA, so we hopped onto it.

I was not involved in its setup. I was more involved in the development once it was set up.

We are using the UiPath's cloud version. We don't have any on-premise setup. If we had an on-premise setup, we would've had to maintain all the servers and make sure it's running all the time. Because we completely migrated to the cloud, the maintenance is not on us. UiPath takes care of that. It's definitely a big win for us because we migrated from the on-premise system to the cloud system.

It requires very minimal maintenance in comparison to the on-premise setup. In an on-premise setup, we have to maintain all the servers and make sure it's always running up, but with the cloud version, there is very less maintenance on our side. There is an IT team of around two to three people who maintain the systems.

We could see an ROI within a month. We were able to see the benefits of the automation processes within a month. There was a 25% increase after implementing UiPath. There is an increment on a year-by-year basis.

We are using its enterprise version. Its price seems okay, but I'm not sure because I'm not involved with the finance side. I'm more on the development side.

We didn't evaluate other options. We did some research, and we found UiPath to be a leader in the industry, and it also fitted our budget. So, we went for it and started using it.

I would definitely recommend it to others. Automation is going to be a part of everything in the future. So, every company should start adopting UiPath for any internal or external needs. Automation is the best way to go ahead.

We used to do the entire process manually, and we found a lot of errors. It was a time-consuming process on the whole. With the introduction of UiPath, we definitely saw the benefits of automation and a smooth process with fewer errors.

I would rate it a nine out of ten. It's one of the best RPA solutions out there. I'm reducing one point for the AI features. Apart from that, I find it great.
