Tooba Faroki - PeerSpot reviewer
The Python base is very valuable for AI and data science but stability could improve
Our company is using the solution for test automations such as making a software that indicates a payment, data entry, and invoice or document processing.  We have completed a partial automation with the solution and are thinking about implementing it.  The solution is based on Python which makes…
Michael-Peters - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"It supports Python runtime because of that, runtime also improves."
"The process execution and all features are very good."
"I have worked with UiPath and Automation Anywhere previously. Robocorp offers an improved development style and support as well as flexibility of its tools. You can easily develop custom libraries in Robocorp."
"I can use it as a library by importing Python scripts, allowing me to access its many features while working with coding."
"The ability to create separate organizations on this platform makes it easier to bill each of the clients separately."
"The product has a valuable business process automation feature."
"The solution is based on Python which makes it very valuable."
"It offers high scalability and enables automation in ways that haven't been possible before."
"The ability that this solution has to work with Excel is really good."
"It is easy to use and quick to install."
"UiPath has helped with data scraping and plugging into websites and combining that with Alteryx. We can attack 90% of our use cases now."
"The stability so far has been good."
"The fact that you can scale automations without having to pay attention to the infrastructure for doing so is quite critical. The infrastructure could require a lot of maintenance resources and affect costs, so that feature is quite important."
"I think there's some scalability to UiPath that's going to make everything pretty convenient and easy to use."
"UiPath's most valuable feature is Insights, which provides invaluable data on time savings and AI model performance."
"The UiPath community has been great. There are a lot of great mentorships, a lot of forums, and a lot of people who are very interested in growing the community. It's been very nice to work with them. Anybody who is in UiPath has been an amazing partner for us."
 

Cons

"Robocorp is still in development, so most of the keywords are a bit confusing. I have to alter lots of automation steps between processing and development. However, Selenium is due for an update soon, and Robcorp is addressing some of the limitations caused by the previous Selenium version."
"I don't like the complexity of deployment."
"The solution could be more stable."
"The standard libraries in Robocorp should be more advanced."
"They should fully develop Robocorp Studio because it would attract a lot of people to the Robocorp platform."
"The platform's documentation could be better."
"There are certain libraries in Python, such as those dealing with PDF automation and word files, that require the presence of certain external dependencies in the environment to be successfully used."
"I preferred the user interface in the older versions. When troubleshooting, it's sometimes hard to find details about where things went wrong. You need to search a little harder. It takes more clicks to get to where you want to go. It can be somewhat confusing. When you run a process that fails, it takes you somewhere you may not expect."
"What needs some improvement in UiPath is its Document Understanding functionality. It should be simplified because, right now, it's a little complicated to use, as you have to give it data or details, so in the future, I hope that could be improved."
"The machine learning and artificial intelligence components need to be enhanced and become more efficient."
"The API integrations need improvement. They should build a better framework for the ability to integrate with other external APIs."
"The only thing which I see is missing, is it does not have an inbuilt machine learning. You have to teach the bot. The bot is not self-learning."
"UiPath should improve its support team."
"Data integration is the biggest opportunity for improvement. We need quick connections to our complex in-house databases to set up automations more efficiently. It's time-consuming to connect those large databases."
"UiPath could be improved by offering overall solutions instead of just having the RPA process."
"We've tried to use test automation, however, I'm not sure how well it works."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a cost-effective solution."
"In terms of licenses, there is a return on investment in that area."
"The product has good pricing."
"The solution is a very affordable price."
"The price is cheaper than other competitors. I would rate the cost as one out of five."
"Robocorp is much better in terms of pricing compared to UiPath."
"You don't have to pay for the license. You have to pay for the time you use it."
"The pricing is fine."
"The cost that we are allocating for RPA doesn't burden us too heavily, so what we are paying is acceptable compared to the gains that we have in the organization."
"The solution isn't very expensive."
"UiPath is a bit more expensive than other similar solutions, and its price is increasing daily."
"The Community Edition is free for everyone and you get all the features, but there is a limitation on the number of bots. The Enterprise Edition is a bit costly for the advanced features."
"They give it away in the community edition for free, so I use it at home."
"UiPath is quite expensive and whatever additional components you want to use will have additional costs."
"It costs much less and it does much more than the competitors' solutions."
"I can't speak to the exact price, however, recently I heard in a meeting that one license for Studio Path costs 2,825 Euros per year. This price is approximate and may fluctuate."
