Helps automate tasks and increases efficiency but does stop working sometimes
Improvement areas and additional features for Nintex RPA should include: 1. Enhanced AI Integration: Integration of more advanced AI capabilities for improved data recognition, natural language processing, and decision-making within automation workflows. 2. Expanded Library of Connectors: Continuously adding connectors to popular applications and systems ensures broader compatibility and facilitates smoother integration with a variety of platforms. 3. Collaboration Tools: Introducing features for collaborative development and version control can enhance automation developers' teamwork and streamline automation project management. 4. Mobile Accessibility: Improving mobile accessibility for monitoring and managing automation workflows on-the-go can be beneficial for users who require flexibility in their work environment. 5. Low-Code Enhancements: Further simplifying the low-code development process can attract a broader user base by making automation accessible to those with minimal technical skills. 6. Machine Learning Integration: Integrating machine learning capabilities directly into the platform could enable more intelligent and adaptive automation, allowing processes to evolve based on patterns and insights. 7. Community-Driven Content: Encouraging and facilitating a community-driven platform where users can share custom components, templates, and best practices could enhance the overall user experience.

Is user-friendly, easy to learn, and manage
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.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The initial setup process is easy."
"Nintex RPA often includes security features, including encryption and user access controls, which ensure the protection of sensitive data and compliance with security standards."
"Nintex RPA doesn't require much coding, and you can drag and drop the activities."
"UiPath's interface element identification is arguably more reliable than Automation Anywhere's."
"I appreciate the simplicity of the interface as I am learning to be a developer."
"From jobs that require reading and processing emails, to jobs that require scraping information from web pages, this tool allows us to do anything that can be done by a human."
"The speed is much better because we're doing it on the cloud. With other solutions there were network problems, but in UiPath I have found that network connectivity is much stronger when transferring data from the back end to the front end. It is much faster."
"The most valuable feature is the UiPath Studio, the graphical coding software, which has high usability and modern appearance."
"The most valuable feature is automating tasks that are highly repetitive, such as Accounts Payable. It is also easy to use."
"Unattended robots are my favorite because it allows us to completely remove a process from a person's day."
"One of the features that I find most valuable is the Apps feature. We can easily create an app, or a web app, that can connect to the robots that we created with UiPath. It is just a drag-and-drop functionality, and we can implement an app with minimal code. Once we have the app ready, we can easily and quickly share it with other stakeholders so that they start using it. The apps are also pretty professional to be used at an enterprise level. That's the main feature I love in UiPath."
 

Cons

"Further simplifying the low-code development process can attract a broader user base by making automation accessible to those with minimal technical skills."
"There could be some features to fix compatibility issues with firmware."
"Nintex RPA is not suitable for PDF automation."
"We need to be able to span across a bigger complex network. Right now, the decision-making is based on a five step rule. It would like to see this increased, so we can take on bigger productions and work more efficiently."
"I am looking forward to new cognitive and artificial intelligence capabilities."
"I find it difficult to set up the Orchestrator and it should be more user-friendly for non-technical people."
"I would like more flexibility during recording and debugging because currently, when UiPath is in debug mode, we cannot make any changes."
"The IDE could use some improvement, but most improvements that come to mind have already been announced for release."
"Sometimes we get some disconnection issues. This happens maybe 10% of the time."
"If they had more development assistance, it would be helpful."
"It was quite new for me and it took time to adjust to it and understand it. At times, some processes took longer with the tool, initially. But when you do them on a regular basis, you understand it better and it takes much less time. Setting up the systems could be difficult initially. It would be better if it were more user-friendly for non-technical users."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product has reasonable pricing."
"The pricing is average; it is not too high nor too low."
"One area that is challenging for me is tracking licenses. It would help to have a license dashboard so that we would know how many licenses have been allocated, who they're allocated to, and when they were last used. Right now, to gather that information, I have to go to four different screens in UiPath..."
"The licensing fees for this solution are $8,000 USD annually."
"The pricing depends on whether you're running attended or unattended bots. Unattended processes cost a lot more, and you have to pay cloud costs, too. It's costly. The licensing for the tenant dashboard, developer's toolkit, etc. was reasonable, but unattended bots are quite expensive."
"The price of Orchestrator is pretty high in general as well as compared to other solutions, because Automation Anywhere does not charge for its Control Room."
"This solution is priced less compared with other products."
"Our licensing fees are approximately $140,000 USD annually, which includes all of the bots, Orchestrator, and the Studio."
"The tool's pricing is fairly reasonable."
