UiPath Platform Reviews

Reading non-PO invoice details form a SharePoint form, validating it, sending it for manager approval, and on receiving manager approval, entering the invoice details with invoice and approval attachments to SAP.

• Improved the speed of the execution of processes 
• Eliminated human errors: The manual actions had caused errors in the Excel formula, and it was unknown to the business until the UiPath RPA tool was implemented. 
• Development was easy with UiPath with the numerous inbuilt activities and support for custom activities.
• Issue handling was easy with the help of documentation, community and the official support team.

• UiPath supports integration with various OCR, cognitive, ML, and IoT related services and tools.
• UiPath provides the flexibility to use unattended robots without the need for Orchestrator.

The UiPath tool doesn't provide an option to resize the activities as per wish, especially "if" the activity is a big box. 

Very stable solution.

Easy to scale as per the need.

UiPath provides a strong, active and very helpful official community platform for clarifying doubts, sharing issues, etc. UiPath has assigned an official team for providing support for the community users through this platform.

Yes, Blue Prism. Unlike Blue Prism tools, UiPath provides a great user interface so that a person with minimum technical knowledge can understand the flow. 

Very straightforward pricing, setup, cloud-hosting, and licensing.

In-house.

110%.

• UiPath provides a flexible licensing model which helps the customer to spend based on their need. 
• UiPath has a reasonable license price compared to other leading RPA tools. 
  
• UiPath is an easy to learn and use tool with a great user interface. 

Yes, Automation Anywhere.

If you are starting RPA and have no budget for POC, then blindly go with UiPath.

To automate various business processes which include generating reports, data entry into certain applications, email automation, and web automation.

• It is easy to use as drag-and-drop features are present. 
• Basic knowledge of .NET is sufficient to develop a workflow. 
• Almost includes all the activities used for automation.

• Email automation can access emails in multiple ways.
• UI commands with minutes change in selector: The command works effectively in all environments.

It could improve the service by resolving the bugs and providing the fixes as soon as possible.

We started with UiPath to automate activities that required gathering data from different applications and posting the data to another app.

Reduced FTE and a significant reduction in errors. Also, the processes can now be scheduled using Orchestrator and can be scheduled 24x7.

• Tool has a macro recording feature that can generate the code for you automatically.
• The recent computer vision AI feature. This feature helps recording for remote desktop and citrix environment and enables recording by converting images to textboxes and other window controls. As a result, recording feature for remote environment is now like recording for local environment

Improvement in the parsing of PDF files.

Stability is a risk with automation tools. Any change in GUI can break the recording. Hoping for more features in the tool to support it

With option to buy multiple licenses and use of orchestrator that can run across multiple servers, UIPath seems scalable

no

I am using Community Edition which is free

no

The primary use case is probably the swivel chair operations where data is extracted from one system and used as input in another.

• Efficiency gains: Tasks can go a lot faster.
• Data quality: A robot is a human error-proof.
• Mood: Employees don't need to do the dull, boring, annoying chores.

The academy is free and offers a low threshold for getting on the UiPath train. The community adds to this as someone is always willing to help out or someone else already encountered the same problem and solved it.

UiPath doesn't deliver on the promise of 'no programming skills required'. It is possible for smaller tasks, but if you want a companywide robot that is a little bit complex, you need someone with programming skills. 

We use it for price quotes on the internet, looking for the best cost benefits for our customers after researching our thefts, creating a table and sending the data by email to the customer.

With the creation of the project mentioned above, we were able to reduce the cost of our client to acquire materials, besides the agility of being able to do everything very fast.

Web scrapping for us is the best tool so far, as well as data scraping. We have obtained many good results, and in the near future with these databases, we have the intention to move towards some possible interaction with big data.

Unfortunately, the work with PDFs that contain an image still has very bad recognition and needs to be studied for a way to improve this function which is very important for anyone who works with files of that format.

The main request of our clients is the integration with the SAP system and specific tasks of email, like sending and downloading of NFS.

With the automation of the tasks, we have significantly increased the production of our clients, with robots running 24/7.

The web recorder has been a great help when it comes to automating tasks over the internet. The selector is perfect, and it recognizes with mastery all the information that is shown.

I think they should give a review on the recognition of text in the PDF files. It can not read a whole file, and that delays the work it has too much.

Work automating demands of our clients like emails and withdrawal of data from PDFs to database.

UiPath has been a hero to our customers as we have been able to perform data analysis faster and more accurately thanks to the speed of the theft created.

The web recorder without a doubt is the best. With a few clicks, we can automate a great demand for navigations in web systems.

Data extraction via PDF needs to be reviewed, although working fine with OCR, it still leaves a craving for PDFs with image source.

Gone are the days when you have to deploy 100s of people for repeated tasks. We regularly update invoices of different channels and merchants to our workflow. Capturing each invoice requires some human attention. There are chances of using OCR or text-based extraction of invoices. We easily automate each type of invoice extraction to our spreadsheet. This reduces one hour (max 1.5 hr) of 100 employees in our organization.

Majorly replacing all the remote freelancers who were doing the copy-paste work for us to fetch invoices at low pay; they are now set free. We do not hire them, rather our UiPath robot does that, thus reducing the cost.

The best part of UiPath is you do not need to check anything manually. Whatever error comes, the robot automatically gets stopped rather than infiltrating absurd values in the next process.

We have deployed the technology for six months. We are facing a major challenge in front of us. The invoice automation can only be done when the invoices are on the website. Usually, we fetch invoices from partner websites as PDF. Thus we are doing extra work of converting the pdf to RPA readable file. If we had dedicated channel of PDFs then it would have worked but it is not like that.
