Featured Reviews

Ayobami Shobaloju - PeerSpot reviewer
Customer Solution Provider at Wema Bank
Automating processes has saved time and improved communication
Something frustrates me concerning Microsoft Power Automate, and that is about the integration with Microsoft Forms and Excel. The issue now is that I don't get my responses synchronized automatically, and that frustrates me a lot. If the team could take this as feedback, the synchronization of the feedback responses from the forms and the Excel sheets should be seamless. This synchronization issue happens frequently, and it causes a lot of delays in the sense that the mails that ought to go out to the agents fail at some point. I have to reload these responses so that the agents can get their responses as when submitted. What I notice is that the responses don't go out without proper synchronization, so I reload the field responses, and this works afterwards. I would say probably a seamless walkthrough process for new users would be beneficial. For those using it for the first time, a seamless walkthrough process would be fine.

End-to-end visibility and transparency help remove bottlenecks
UiPath Process Mining impacts our company positively by providing us with a lot of insights. It helps us optimize our shared services operations. We can see where the process bottlenecks are and address them. It's useful for optimization and reducing bottlenecks across the business processes. UiPath Process Mining helps to free up staff's time for other projects. UiPath Process Mining helps save 10% to 12% of our time. UiPath Process Mining helps us reduce our total cost of ownership (TCO). It helps us reduce our TCO by approximately 5%. It has potential, but we are not using it fully. UiPath Process Mining takes two to three months to implement and another two to three months to adopt. We could see its value within four to six months. UiPath Process Mining comes with quite a few connectors and tools, so its integration capability is decent. UiPath Process Mining provides excellent end-to-end visibility as long as you have the right data source systems and quality. Many times, we struggle with data quality, but if you have good quality data, it provides you with good end-to-end results.
