Stable with good cross-integration between modules, but the training needs to be improved
We mainly use UiPath as our RPA platform. I have looked at several other solutions that include the bigger ones, Blue Prism, and Automation Anywhere. We have experience in developing bots in all three of these. It is difficult to move from UiPath to EdgeVerve when UiPath is so good at getting people in the door. They've got a great ecosystem and a great training model. Every other system is more challenging to use. To get an EdgeVerve license, for example, you need to have an NDA in place to use it. Blue Prism is even worse, although, with them, you just have to pay more money. By not democratizing the software and the way to utilize it, smaller companies like EdgeVerve and even Blue Prism, to a certain extent, have suffered in terms of growth. The three leaders at the top do a pretty good job. Outside of workflow, they do a pretty good job, and that's why the customers buy, so you have to be strong on those. As far as the tools are concerned, RPA is RPA, and everybody generally does it in the same way. What is probably going to start distinguishing between products is the use of AI. When AI really overtakes the selectors for RDA, robotic desktop automation, when you have to really rely on the backdrop of the DOM to get at the element, the use of AI and more efficient on-prem AI solutions is going to really make that a better experience. The on-premises distinction is important because there's latency when you hit the cloud. Ultimately, to me, the toolsets are all the same. Drag and drop, the ability to create custom activities in terms of creating your libraries, and that kind of thing, they're all there. This past year has been ridiculous in terms of how all of the tools have progressed. What they were a year ago versus what they are today, is a considerable and significant difference. For example, I have totally redesigned my solutions and architectures over the past year.

Improves accuracy and has the easiest interface and good scalability
Orchestrator needs an overhaul. They have added so many functions that it is sometimes quite hard to find the right settings. They have a tree hierarchy with the host and the tenant. Some settings you do on the host, and some settings you do on the tenant. You need to know at which level you are to find what you need. It all looks very same. The other thing that I have been telling them for years is the width of the activity. You cannot change the width. I do a lot of training to show something, and I constantly have to go into the advanced editor to show what is in there, but the big thing right now is Orchestrator.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I would say that the cross-integration between different modules, such as between the OCR, RPA, and ML, is the most valuable feature."
"The product helps achieve efficiency that will create ROI and the training and support are very good."
"The solution is very scalable."
"It is easy to go to the code level and write automations that only require a couple lines of code."
"The initial setup was pretty straightforward."
"The product helps us establish and maintain best practices while simplifying workflows."
"UiPath offers many valuable features, but the most valuable is the accuracy of its workflow process."
"The Orchestrator and the Studio are the features that I personally enjoy using."
"We are seeing many hours saved with respect to automation. Automation should be on every project's agenda."
 

Cons

"Better training and better accessibility of the tools are the things that need to be improved."
"Previous Orchestrator versions were very user-friendly for the admins and the users, but the new Orchestrator is a bit advanced. If they could reduce its complexity, to something more like what it used to be like, it would be better."
"VM was on the service for high density. It is finicky at times. The latest release is a lot more stable. However, I've had a two week production outage where DLLs weren't registered and someone from Vegas had to login for eight hours onto the fraud service to work it out. Even though they uninstalled and re-installed it, all the different apps still wasn't working. So, I have lost a bit of faith in it to be honest."
"I would like better stability and possibly some tools to determine why robots are failing."
"StudioX could use some improvement to broaden the range of automation projects suitable."
"Some of the licenses, such as for Document Understanding, are a little bit expensive, and we hope that they will reduce the prices over time. Apart from this, I don't have anything to improve."
"I want more flexibility in licensing and how we can use AI units."
"There are minor bugs. Every major software has bugs. That said, all are solvable, all are resolvable, and it's not a very bad thing."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Compared to other solutions, the pricing is moderate."
"UiPath is on the higher side compared to Microsoft Power Automate and Automation Anywhere."
"There are different licensing options and you should study which one better suits your company's needs."
"Currently our clients are looking for cost optimization post-pandemic and UiPath comes at a high price point."
"UiPath has several modules that we would like to use. They will enhance our installation, but they are very costly."
"UiPath is reasonably priced."
"There are three leaders in the market: UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism. UiPath is in-between the two. BluePrism is on the higher end when it comes to pricing. Automation Anywhere is on the lower side when it comes to pricing."
"UiPath is starting to price itself out of the market. It's getting expensive. That's fine if they continue to push the envelope of what they offer, but it's all about perception. And the perception over the last two years with my customers is that it's expensive."
