A scalable solution which is easy to install and use
We use the solution for banking, retail and invoice processing, these being replaced by the virtual box.  The solution is very easy to use. While I, obviously, still require the support of the technical, delivery team, the POC is basically very quick.  The solution should come with language…

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

"The initial setup is very quick."
"UiPath has reduced human error by 20%."
"The feature I like the most is ONEWEB UI automation. UiPath's OCR technology also works well. There is another feature called Action Center that lets you decide what happens after the data is captured."
"UiPath's interface element identification is arguably more reliable than Automation Anywhere's."
"I am a developer, and I love the tool's easiness with features like drag and drop. The tool is ready to use with some minor updates."
"I rate the scalability of UiPath, ten out of ten."
"My organization has been pretty happy with the amount of scalability that it has provided. One bot can literally run multiple processes and process millions of records."
"UiPath has a very good user interface, and the automation is a great feature. New users can easily understand UiPath."
"We are using the solution's selector technology for UI automation. That is the most important feature for us. For example, one of the applications in our company is being updated day by day, by the development team. We use selector to make it dynamic."
 

Cons

"The solution should come with language customization, which would simplify its use for our customers."
"UiPath's performance could be improved. UiPath's framework was built on top of .NET Core. It was a 32-bit platform initially, but they recently introduced a 64-bit version. Let's say I have a huge machine with 64 gigs of RAM. If I have a server machine and want to use multi-threading to extend my automation and multitask, the design won't allow me. I can't separate things into multiple processes."
"I would like to see improvements made in OCR, Captcha Automation, and PDF extraction."
"Many of the features that UiPath has are good, although better documentation is required for them."
"UiPath is very slow for scraping."
"We use intelligent automation for things like document processing. There is a validation center where the ML model extracts some values, and we can validate if it's correct. That aspect could be improved a little. The percentage of values extracted without validation could be increased. It's currently an attended process, but they should give you the option of making it unattended."
"Some features are limited for Orchestrator. For example, the AI features could be more flexible and easily accessible. Every time I want to use some new features, we have to do a deep dive into this technology."
"We aren't scaling up UiPath because it doesn't provide a satisfactory way to log and monitor data. Instead, we use other tools like Automation Anywhere for large-scale operations in our production environment. We're building solutions that can handle a huge amount of data so we can monitor real-time issues. I don't think UiPath solves that case for us."
"UiPath should expand its coding options and reduce its dependency on third-party resources. There should also be more flexible licenses for smaller businesses. It's hard for small companies to estimate the cost of adding users in their final budgets. UiPath could also improve error handling and capture a little more information about the execution of your processes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is no licensing fee for our customers."
"I can estimate our licensing costs are approximately $100,000 USD per year."
"I believe that the price is on the higher side."
"It costs much less and it does much more than the competitors' solutions."
"There is some initial sticker shock from a lot of people regarding cost, until you show them what the actual benefit is. Initially, people are just going, "Why?" So, the retort for that is, "Look how much you will save, time, and budget-wise with one bot. If one bot costs X, this is how much it will save you over one year. This alleviates the "Oh my gosh" face, when it's 1200 dollars for a bot."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable and lower than its competitors."
"At the company that I was with previously, we were paying $3,600 USD per bot. With the new company that I am at, because we're new and we don't have the size, we are paying $8,000 USD per bot."
"UiPath is quite expensive and whatever additional components you want to use will have additional costs."
"UiPath is too expensive."
