The thing that I find very interesting with UiPath is that no process is too simple or too complex to put UiPath on it, so it can work anywhere on any type of process. This is why we're able to put in on customer facing processes, but also back office processes, for example in voice processing.

Video Review
If we are thinking about customer facing processes, we have seen savings of about 25% of the workforce involved
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
Firstly, it showed everybody that automation is possible and that it does not require much effort. The future holds a lot of surprises when you put the right technology to the right process, then you get great results. What I can say is that we see a solid return on investment, both for us and for our customers.
What needs improvement?
We have seen issues in the past, but we've also seen the actions that it can do to correct them. For example, it's just one color change or the place of a button in an application change and so on.
I'm looking more at the potential of this product, so looking back, we had support for everything that was needed, our small issues were fixed, but now I'm looking at the roadmap that UiPath has for this product.
I can say with confidence that is a future proofing investment. I mean what other technology would come out and then bring business value.
How are customer service and support?
I always appreciated technical support from UiPath, because I see both business understanding and also the technical understanding so the support team was able to get the discussion with both my business team and my technical team.

839,319 professionals have used our research since 2012.
How was the initial setup?
It depends on your expectation. If people have expectations that API technology is very easy to implement, it's not 100% true. It is easy to train a robot to do a specific task. But when you use more robots or you put them on complex processes, then the story's changing so you need very strong development skills and very good system architects who will understand this.
What was our ROI?
We have seen a return on investment in the longer term because we have some rather small processes. Our advantage is in terms employee experience or our colleague experience. But when you're looking at customers, we have seen numbers in hundreds of thousands of savings per year.
If we are thinking about the customer-facing processes, we have seen saving about 25% of the workforce involved in this. The main saving was in the time to respond to customer.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We did this analysis about three years ago. We compared Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism and UiPath and then the decision was to move with UiPath and our first proof of concept was on UiPath.
What other advice do I have?
I would rate the product eight out of ten. I am scared not to be too subjective because I would go for a higher grade. I still see some room for improvement. I still see some need for integration with other solutions, but I would certainly recommend these to all my customers, comparing it to what the competition has.

Customer Experience Specialist - RPA at a computer software company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Automation of rule-based and mundane tasks allows time for more productive activities
Pros and Cons
- "The employee's productive hours increased and they were able to handle more transactions and focused on better quality work that needs human intelligence."
- "A self-coding robot can be a very useful tool in the future."
What is our primary use case?
I'm working at a computer software company, where we're bringing digital transformation using UiPath. All rule-based and mundane tasks are identified and automated using RPA. We have about 25 bots in production now. Data processing, file handling, email automation, and related activities are running in production.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features are the ability to interact with almost all applications in Windows, ease of programming, excellent forum support for developers, free academy training, Orchestrator capabilities for BOT handling, and Citrix-supporting features during development.
What needs improvement?
Robotic process automation should mold and grow into intelligent process automation where a BOT can handle more than just robotic and simple tasks. I'm sure UiPath is working towards it.
A self-coding robot can be a very useful tool in the future.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been using UiPath for three years.
What was our ROI?
The ROI was quick and measurable. The employee's productive hours increased and they were able to handle more transactions and focused on better quality work that needs human intelligence. Some processes were developed in human-BOT collaboration as partial automation.
What other advice do I have?
The R&D focus of UiPath is really impressive.
