Room For Improvement

Appian users want better UI customization, integration, scalability, flexibility, cost-efficiency, support, collaboration, and enhanced case management features.
UiPath Process Mining requires improved integration, usability, automation, AI features, competitive pricing, and better onboarding and training resources.
If there is a very complex process that includes a lot of data transitioning and memory-centric processes, it consumes a lot of memory.
UiPath Process Mining is associated with a high cost and a difficult learning curve for those unfamiliar with process mining tools.
It should focus on identifying opportunities for automation and resource allocation efficiently.
Maybe adding some competitor analysis would be beneficial, especially if I am using multiple tools.

UiPath Process Mining is seen as costly, with high licensing and maintenance fees, complicating ROI assessments for small businesses.
On the pricier side, both Appian and Pega are enterprise-level solutions, placing them on the slightly higher side.
Compared to other solutions such as Power Automate, UiPath is significantly more expensive, with its pro plan starting at $420 per month.
It is a high price for a low rating.

Srimanta Pandit - PeerSpot reviewer
Flexible, improves operational efficiency, and reduces the time taken to complete processes
The solution’s turnaround time for development is better compared to other tools. The solution enables fast development. The traceability of the processor is good. There is much more governance and regulations on the processers. The tool reduces the time of the processes by 30% to 40%. The solution’s low-code aspect has greatly impacted the development and deployment speed. One of the major reasons we are using the product is that we can reuse the modules. The developers can reuse all the modules. It enables us to make subsequent developments in less time. The prebuilt modules can be deployed within two to three weeks. The tool is very flexible. Compared to other platforms, the Appian product team was agile in quickly customizing things for us.
Rahul Sharma. - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable solution with a comparison feature that helps people to understand and visualize the impact of a particular task
UiPath Process Mining is as lightweight a tool as it is new. It's not able to handle a lot of logs in one go at high speed. The solution's speed is fairly good, but it should be further increased to make it more powerful to process large amounts of logs. Logs should be as much as possible. We have taken one year's and sometimes two years' logs to understand the behavior. We are not here solving small problems because a lot of money is invested. I have observed that handling a large amount of logs slows down the solution's performance. This area is improving because we are now observing a new version of UiPath Process Mining with improved speed. As a developer, I'll be happy to see that happening more quickly, and I am sure the solution is heading there.
