UiPath Reviews

Most of the time, I am a developer. I also have to develop some best practices, but a lot of the time, I'm working on the application and creating Unattended Robots. We have a large amount of old school manual processes which we need to automate, because we have a lot of full-time employees just doing boring stuff. 

I started last year, so I am a bit fresh in the organization. We have two people: One who analyzes and other develops.

I am using version 2018.4, which I find easy to use. We can see some major changes with each version. The IT department sort of hates that I come by every quarter of a year and want an upgrade, but it is very much worth it. There is a lot of stuff happening out there, and it's dangerous to be left behind by a few versions. 

We have a few people who are very happy to be relieved of their (almost) full-time job of processing customer applications, then processing those applications further along into the company and having that be their full time job. Now, these employees are able to do some more enlightening stuff.

The automation technology is mainly in the financial involvement. We also supply a lot of the power for users. We have a lot of documents which have to be signed and processed, and in those areas, it's nice to have automation and easy to see the benefits.

The seamless integration with programming underneath, so if you choose to, you can get a bit technical with stuff. If there is something missing, you can make it yourself. 

The increasing amount of possibilities in Orchestrator to control robots and schedule them, with the possibly of a dynamic schedule in the future. In addition, there is API access to Orchestrator.

I've seen the roadmap. It looks like some of my wishes are in there, such as the debugging of the last X amount of savings before the robot fails. 

I would also like more script access to the flow of activity, so we can try to see a text version of what we have in the user interface.

Most of the time, the product boils down to making something that works by itself. 

I haven't encountered any real issues with the stability of the product. It is hard to evaluate since it works through so many systems.

We haven't had that many scalability questions arise yet, because we are still in the process of getting people to adopt this new technology. I have looked at the features, and it looks promising.

We have a plan for licensed upgrades, which is a straightforward, easy procedure. This is based on our knowledge from migrations of earlier versions.

We started out by going through the few basic certifications which were in the UiPath Academy a year ago, though there are more now. Even though my coworker is not a developer, he just wanted to have insight into how you use software, so we both did it. 

The UiPath Academy was very good. It tries to help and provides a sort of education not from where somebody is attempting to sell you something. While you are sold product, you push yourself to pass the courses to get to the juicy stuff, and it is on your own accord.

This was a new product for the company. Leadership though this was a good place to start.

The initial setup was complex, which was done by the consultants. After that, we adapted the product a bit, and it has been pretty easy.

The initial setup for our virtual environment was straightforward, as was the installation with it. Afterwards, we were up and running with our virtual machines.

We originally used a consulting company, Deloitte, but then decided that we wanted the knowledge to be in-house.

It has helped eliminate human error. Data quality is a concern, and it helps to alleviate some of our data quality issues.

It has saved the company time.

We use the performance benefits of it to make a case for future hiring of people, so I have great expectations from it. I would rate the current ROI and performance benefits as an eight out of ten.

I heard that they also evaluated Blue Prism. The leadership went with UiPath because it had more transparency, had a better cost, and was more risk-free. They decided to give UiPath a shot before deciding on a long-term solution.

Get buy-in from your leadership early on, because it's very hard to get stuff done without it.

We are only using Unattended Robots at the moment. However, we are very excited about Attended Robots getting a foothold. It is something that we want to investigate more, since Attended Robots are feasible in our organization.

We use UiPath for marketing, accounting, and sales.

The solution has helped us save time. 

I like the automation capabilities. I particularly like Autopilot and documentation.

We don't currently use AI Center or process mining, but we want to learn more about these features.

The support team could be more responsive and helpful.

I have been using UiPath for one year. 

I would give the stability of UiPath a six out of ten. I've experienced some issues with it in the past.

I would rate the scalability a six out of ten.

I have had to contact the support team on a few occasions. It was a good experience. But the solution could be better with its support team.

Positive

We switched to UiPath because it's a better fit for enterprise companies like ours.

It might not be a good fit for smaller companies. It's a bit expensive for small companies, but it's worth the money for larger companies.

Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. 

UiPath is an RPA solution that is very easy to use and local. It's a good choice for companies that are new to RPA or have limited resources for training.

We work with the government on HR-related data and banking reconciliation. We use the solution in the insurance industry for claims management.

We use the product in different use cases. We use it for automating repetitive tasks, email and document parsing, and posting data from different systems to centralized systems. In most cases, we use it to compare different Excel sheets for reconciliation and updating the master system.

The tool helps us to envision the automation processes and gives us an edge in offering our solutions to the customer. UiPath keeps innovating new technologies. It also localizes technologies like OCR for extracting data from documents to the regional market. The reporting tools are fantastic. It also helps us calculate ROI and manage bugs.

UiPath Document Understanding and Task Mining are valuable features. I am satisfied with the product overall.

Saudi has two calendars. UiPath does not support the Hijri date. They should add it in future releases. We also face regular issues while parsing from right to left and left to right. The Arabic language is not related to the platform. We have Arabic scripts which are sometimes difficult to understand. Also, the license is complicated.

The add-ons are not well documented. When we offer and pitch to the customer, sometimes we get confused about which one to offer based on the third-party tools. The solution must focus on microservices and web-based platform building. It would be fantastic if they could produce web applications connected automatically to UiPath.

OutSystems is a low-code platform for building web-based and mobile applications. If such features are available in UiPath, it will eliminate the need to integrate with different applications. We can directly build applications using UiPath.

I have been using the solution for the last four or five years.

The product is very stable. When we deploy it in the cloud, there is no need for maintenance. UiPath manages everything. Maintenance of the configuration has to be done by us.

The solution is scalable.

When we need a technical team member's support, they join the call and try to guide us. I rate the technical support a seven or eight out of ten.

Neutral

I have worked with Automation Anywhere. It is a good solution but not on par with UiPath. Automation Anywhere has a lot of features, which is very nice. However, UiPath exceeds our expectations.

UiPath has better support, resources, and scalability. UiPath provides very good vendor support. Automation Anywhere allowed users to download preconfigured processes already deployed elsewhere so that we could just fine-tune and use them.

The product can be deployed both on-premise and on the cloud. I worked as a solution architect. So, I get involved in the conversation if there is any conflict in the deliverables. The tool is easy to deploy. The time taken for deployment depends on the complexity of the processes. It takes two to four weeks for simple processes. For complex processes, it takes six to ten weeks for deployment. After the project's completion, our engineers are on standby to resolve any issues on the project's go-live date.

We focus on high-value solutions and look at the repetitive processes we can use. The HR initiative we did is on-demand in our region due to the regulations. We can develop the process once and deploy it multiple times with zero or minimal adjustments. We focus on the high return to the organizations, the shortest ROI, and the highest value to the business so that the customer would realize the importance of such technologies. When we build trust with the customer, we have very big upsell opportunities and referrals from them.

We need one or two people to deploy the product for a small project. For large projects, we need a team of six or seven. Our team has 10 to 15 people, including developers, solution architects, and support personnel. The tool requires maintenance. Our support people are responsible for different services. Around 10% of the resources in our company are involved in maintenance.

UiPath gives pretty good discounts.

The ease of building automation using the product is fantastic. The product speeds up and reduces the cost of digital transformation. I haven't seen many major upgrades to the customer's infrastructure or applications. I design and modernize the processes. If we can’t extract the data from databases, the customer will put that data in a flat file or Excel sheet and add it to a folder. We pick them up and do the processing.

We are not supposed to touch the core system in the banking industry. So we may get it with APIs. Sometimes, APIs are not available when we do the implementation. It takes some time for the banks to build those APIs. UiPath is equipped with different integration tools, whether it is native or not.

The solution has helped to minimize our on-premise footprint. It is very important to many of our customers. To minimize the cost and provide more streamlined processes across different customers, we have created a shared pool Orchestrator to connect multiple customers to the same Orchestrator. They pretty much share the same processes, but they have different system endpoints. We can clone the processes and modify the endpoint interactions and input data. Sometimes, they use flat files. We change the configuration minimally. The rest of the processes are cloned, enhanced, and supported.

The solution enables us to implement end-to-end automation. We can automate end-to-end based on the scope, expenses, and processes. The implementation could be lengthy or short, based on the processes involved. End-to-end automation provides an edge to us as a consulting company to provide our customers with very advanced automation tools. We have different services and products that we can integrate UiPath with.

We have a content management system. When we use Document Understanding, we relieve the users from indexing documents. UiPath would do the indexing using Document Understanding and archived document repositories. We sometimes do integrations with archives, too. It depends on the context of the implementation. Sometimes, we can automate 60% of the process because some are not UiPath-targeted processes, but we can automate the other process with other systems.

We do not use AI much. We rely on Document Understanding, which is part of AI. In the next couple of years, because of AI's popularity, I believe UiPath will provide more features and enhancements related to AI. The tool has freed up employee time by 70 to 80%. UiPath has saved costs for our organization.

A couple of weeks ago, we had a case about HR contracts in the Ministry of Labour in Saudi. By the end of this year, they want to digitize their contracts and link them to their official portal, where employee contracts are issued. They currently rely on Excel sheets to do the entry. UiPath processes that we support have proven that there are zero percent errors in them compared to human data entry errors.

The as-is process was that an HR personnel must log in to the platform and do the data entry so the contract would be issued and sent to the employee. The HR personnel would interact with four or five pages and provide data like employee ID, mobile number, date of birth, position, salary, and increments. If there is an error in the data, it has a negative impact on the company. It's an official contract that is issued to the employee. If there are any discrepancies, they would have to rectify the whole process again. Besides, it would affect the company's reputation in the market.

For example, if the HR personnel enters 50,000 instead of 5,000, the employee can claim that money. To avoid this, companies can export the HR master data into Excel sheets and put it in a folder. We can program UiPath to pick all the information and paste it into the Ministry of Labour portal. We can verify the data, do a quality check, and post it to the system. This process used to take three to five days to finish, along with an error margin. With the help of UiPath, we shorten the time by 80% with zero error margin.

We have subscribed to UiPath Academy. All our engineers are certified in different UiPath certifications. I am a solution architect. I have done a lot of courses and certifications. In addition to the certification courses, UiPath Academy provides us with resources, information, built-in demos, and process standards. We deal with all the stakeholders in the customers' company.

The product must empower localization. People who want to use UiPath must ensure that the processes they are targeting to automate are fulfilling the conditions for automation. Sometimes, a customer would expect to automate everything. We need to ensure the processes we are targeting to automate are repetitive. We also need highly skilled people to manage the automation. We must automate the high-value processes of the organization to see the results and recognize the return on investment immediately.

Overall, I rate the product an eight out of ten.

I'm using the solution for web applications and for integration.

The solution has improved our organization by improving processes, including documentation processes. We're able to increase our capabilities. We can use it to help us with large projects. Over the years, it's helped put less pressure on the server.

The integration services are quite effective. There are so many integration partners available. For example, we can use the solution with Jira.

It is easy to build automations. We use it to automate processes. We can use the product to automate good causes like sustainable production. However, we work more with web processes as opposed to good causes.

We do use it for end-to-end automation. We can ingest documentation, do a development phase and make our application. It's important to have this end-to-end capability. It helps us gain more knowledge and control.

The user community is definitely useful. If you have any issues or need something explained, you can use the community and gain more knowledge. We can share our knowledge as well. It helps clarify. It helps us interact with other humans to gain insights. 

It's helped lower our on-premises footprint. It's important to us to be able to reduce the on-prem footprint. It saves us space. It's helping us future-proof. It helps reduce limitations.

I've used the UiPath Academy courses. We can learn from ourselves, however, it does help. While we don't completely gain knowledge from the Academy, the solution requires users to go through a learning curve. It can show you the basics, and you need to go further by experimenting. I haven't used Academy courses in the last few weeks. It really does help with integrating services and understanding that aspect of the solution, however.

We plan on leveraging AI functionality. We haven't used it yet. 

It is helping with digital transformation. We can leverage architecture and different platforms much more efficiently. There are a lot of tools and upgrade versions that we need to go through right now. As we continue digital transformation, it will help make our processes more convenient and make tools easier to use.

It's reduced human error. However, the way our documentation is created, we won't be able to completely remove human interactions in the documents and can't remove human error completely.

The product has been able to free up employee time. We can build and complete a process very fast. 

We've noted cost savings when using the solution. We've been able to reduce licenses or move to community licensing.

A lot of implementation is done by UiPath, however, there are parts of the studio we've had issues with. We'd like the upgrades to be a bit easier and more flexible.

I've been using the solution for three years. 

The solution is stable. 

We have three people using the solution in our organization. 

The solution is scalable. We have a lot of applications and different scenarios. We can definitely scale as needed. 

If we have a lot of complications we can get support to troubleshoot. They have been helpful overall. 

Positive

We've also used Blue Prism and Power Automate. 

We find UiPath is easier to build on with drag-and-drop functionality.

Implementing the cloud version of the product is easy. Deployment is simple. However, it depends on your environment.

It's helpful to have some knowledge of UiPath. You only need two to three people to maintain the solution. If it's the first time setting it up, it may require more people.   

We do the deployment ourselves. 

I have witnessed an ROI. We've noted cost savings after implementations. 

The pricing can be a bit high. For single attempts at automation, it may be too pricey for a normal person. If you are doing a lot of automation, it's more affordable. 

I'm an end-user.

I'd recommend that users implement the solution. It's important to implement it correctly in the organization, however. The technology is far easier to use than other technologies in terms of reducing manual interventions in processes.

I would rate the solution ten out of ten.

We utilize UiPath to manage workflows and deploy application solutions into our customers' environments. UiPath simplifies various business tasks, such as automating applications, Excel, and segregating data.

We deploy UiPath both on-premises and in the cloud depending on the customer requirements.

Building automation with UiPath is straightforward. Even individuals with limited technical proficiency can utilize UiPath.

We implemented UiPath for one of our partners. They previously required human intervention to manually manipulate data in a 17,000-column Excel spreadsheet for monthly reporting, which used to take one hour. By employing UiPath and incorporating a Python script into the process, we automated the Excel spreadsheet. As a result, the task now only takes three minutes. This automation saved the organization time and money, increased the accuracy of its data, and allowed its employees to focus on more value-added work.

UiPath enables us to implement end-to-end automation. I have a client in Malaysia, and I am from Vietnam. I visited the client on-site for two weeks. They are in the manufacturing industry, and my purpose was to gather information about their automation requirements since they had never utilized automation before. I managed to assist them in standardizing their processes by offering advice on how to implement the solution. I collected the end-user requirements, which were then used to create the necessary documentation. Once the document got approved, the developer and I developed the bot and subjected it to UAT before obtaining final approval for its production release.

The UiPath User Community is wonderful. While many RPAs have their own communities, none compare to UiPath's. The community edition of UiPath boasts a substantial user base, with expansive groups across various social media platforms. When I first started using UiPath, I would always turn to the user community whenever I encountered an issue. I noticed that others had already asked the same questions and received answers, which was quite convenient for me.

Everyone associated with UiPath usually completes at least their first year of Academy courses to acquire a fundamental understanding of RPA and the platform's functioning. This knowledge is crucial for facilitating the easiest possible approach to automation. I genuinely appreciate all the videos from each course. Every video contains valuable information, and I never skip any of them. In the beginning, the Academy was a great help to me.

UiPath helps reduce the cost of our digital transformation. One of our large financial industry clients mentioned that where they used to require 13,000 employees, they are now only using 6,000 to complete the same work through digital transformation.

UiPath assists in eliminating human errors. Numerous tasks performed by humans each day involve typing in information. Humans can make mistakes due to factors such as fatigue, mood, or feeling unwell. However, automated processes are not susceptible to these issues.

UiPath can contribute to cost savings for an organization, contingent upon the organization's size and the quantity of tasks being automated relative to the number of employees presently engaged in performing those tasks. On average, UiPath has the potential to reduce costs by approximately 30 percent.

The most valuable feature is the ability to view my own activity and customize it on the platform.

We cannot utilize the UiPath community edition license to operate any bots that we have created using that version in an enterprise environment. This is because we are obligated to employ UiPath Studio, which necessitates a distinct license for professional use.

I have been using UiPath for two years.

UiPath is the most stable platform.

UiPath is scalable.

I previously used Power Automate before switching to UiPath which is an out-of-the-box solution.

The initial setup is straightforward. We just need to run the orchestrator and the packet. I can complete the deployments myself based on the documents.

I would rate UiPath nine out of ten.

UiPath requires proper maintenance which is outlined in the user manual.

We are a partner of UiPath, and we utilize their solution for welfare unions and document understanding.

Building automation using UiPath is straightforward. I would rate the ease of building automation an eight out of ten.

UiPath enables end-to-end automation, which is essential to our organization because it saves time, is reliable, and is easy to use. Although it is somewhat expensive, it is worth the investment in the long run.

Being a part of the UiPath User Community helps us deal with various tasks. We can share our experiences with the members of the group and learn from the experiences of other members of the community.

Some of the benefits our clients have noted about UiPath are the speed and the reduction in operations at the end of the day. Our clients were able to achieve their goals quickly by using UiPath and witnessing a return on investment.

The introductory course of UiPath Acadamy is good.

UiPath accelerates digital transformation and reduces its associated costs. Initially, implementing such transformations may necessitate expensive upgrades. However, once the setup is complete, operations can run smoothly. Typically, when a company begins contemplating digital transformation, they often find themselves in a technologically outdated state. As a result, a comprehensive update of their systems becomes imperative, incurring significant costs.

UiPath helps reduce human error. It is highly beneficial to automate certain human tasks and mitigate the potential for errors.

It has freed up approximately 50 percent of our employees' time.

UiPath has saved approximately 20 percent of our organization's costs.

The UiPath Community is truly helpful.

Although we have to pay for the extra features that UiPath offers, they are extremely useful.

The introductory courses of UiPath Academy are adequate, but there is room for improvement. I understand that creating an automated course for everyone is not an easy task. After completing these courses, we are capable of performing simple tasks. However, if we truly want to learn, for example, Java, we must conduct further research on our own. The Academy courses should provide more challenging content.

The pricing in our region has the potential for improvement. The price is the same throughout Europe, despite the varying economies in each country, which poses challenges for all the partners involved.

I have been using UiPath for five years. 

I would rate the stability of UiPath as a perfect ten out of ten.

I would rate UiPath's scalability as a perfect ten out of ten.

We previously used Blue Prism but switched to UiPath to meet client requirements. Personally, I prefer UiPath.

As a partner, we experience a return on investment because we bear the cost of the solution, and subsequently provide the services. The client pays for both the services rendered and a portion of the licensing fee. For us, the benefit is clear, but as a lean benefit, compared to the really expensive fee that we have to charge the clients to have a margin.

The price is high. On a scale of one to ten, with ten being the highest, I would rate the price as an eight out of ten.

We also have to pay extra if we want Studio, Document Understanding, even if APIs are not going to be used for text recognition, or Insight. Insight is really expensive and doesn't offer anything new other than Elasticsearch and Kibana, which are free tools. The message we have received from UiPath is that they are the leader in the market, and we have to pay for that.

We evaluated Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism, Appian, and a few others before selecting UiPath.

I give UiPath an eight out of ten.

I recommend that new users first take the Academy courses before transitioning to the UiPath Community version. It is advisable to learn all the basics thoroughly, without assuming any prior knowledge, and to exercise patience.

I have learned that using a machine is better than I am.

We used this solution to automate monitoring, implement robots, and monitor the robots. We use it for network monitoring, ticketing systems, and remediation activities. This is a SaaS solution. 

This solution is mostly used by network engineers in managed services. The engineers look after telecom networks, and they are the end users. For automation, a sizable team of developers, specialized automation developers, and solution architects used the solution. There were about 40 RPA developers and 10 solution architects.

We plan to automate some of the business processes regarding financial reporting.

We used this solution in the automation of a legacy Jira application that was used for CR management. We use the change request template, and we're able to collect data from various systems through APIs and submitting requests.

Since we started using this solution, our team has had more time to work on other tasks.

The solution has reduced human error by processing the data directly from the source and into the destination application without human intervention.

Our internal clients are glad that KPIs are increasing.

A lot of my colleagues have used the UiPath Academy course. There were also colleagues who used the course and weren't involved in the day-to-day automation process.

It really helps employees be aware of how the tool works, how they can better describe processes, and with what level of detail they need us to describe processes so we can automate their work.

One of the biggest improvements was that some of our colleagues who weren't technical and weren't working in the automation domain started to build their own robots to automate some parts of their work without help from our automation team.

UiPath's community is used by quite a lot of our developers to solve some issues and get resolutions faster. The community is quite big compared to other communities. We get more resources, and it's more active than other communities.

We use Attended Automation for some of the monitoring, like creating outlets based on network events. Attended Automation helped scale RPA benefits in our organization by automating department or role-specific processes that require human-robot collaboration. 

With the involvement of a lot of colleagues from different departments, mostly using Attended Automation, we have increased the awareness of automation and robot automation in the company.

I like the interface. It's simple to interact with. We can replicate and multiply the robots when we need to change something.

It's easy to build automations using UiPath. Colleagues who aren't very technical can develop their own automations.

The developer studio could be improved. There have been glitches, but it improved from year to year.

I have used this solution for three years.

We had some issues with stability because of some unattended robots. During execution, there were stability issues.

We didn't have many issues with scalability.

We have a good relationship with UiPath. We are in Romania, and they have an office here.

I would rate support an eight out of ten. 

Positive

The setup was easy. Within one month, we migrated from Blue Prism to UiPath and started implementing some robots.

We had a small POC to discover how it would fit in our infrastructure and how feasible it would be to have all the functionality from our previous tools. We rolled it out for a small department and migrated all automation to UiPath. Then, we gradually rolled it out to other areas.

Overall, the solution saved costs. Last year, it saved us between 8% and 12% of costs.

We increased the speed of delivery of automation, so it's a good return on investment.

We also evaluated Blue Prism. Due to its subscription pattern, it wasn't flexible enough for everybody to understand it and work with the tools. Licensing was a bottleneck.

Blue Prism didn't reduce the cost of automation, but it increased the number of automations we did in the same period by 30%.

I would rate this solution seven out of ten. 

My advice is that depending on the business domain where you want to implement the solution, it's more feasible for document processing and ingesting data in applications, not for executing commands in various application servers or infrastructure. 

Stability is an issue. In large deployments where you have a lot of robots, these issues can cause a lot of intermittent problems with the operation of the robots.

We do a lot of manual work on a routine basis. We brought in UiPath to reduce a lot of routine work and mundane tasks that we do. An example would be that we have developed internal tools in our company. We need to back up the logs for these tools. Earlier, we used to log into a system, copy the logs, and then store them at another place, such as Amazon S3. With the introduction of UiPath, we are able to achieve this completely in an automated way. We have set up a UiPath automation to log into a system automatically, take all the logs, and then put them in S3 so that we have a backup for all those logs. This was one of the major use cases that we had, and UiPath helped us to achieve that at scale.

We are using the cloud version. We have more of a hybrid model. We have a pipeline through which we deploy everything related to UiPath. We have a beta endpoint and a production endpoint. Everything goes through the pipeline. Once everything is deployed in beta, we do our testing, and when we know that everything is safe in the beta endpoint, we push everything to the production endpoint. It is basically a pipeline system that we manage.

Our overall efficiency has improved. Previously, the manual tasks that we had to do consumed a lot of time, and they were also prone to human errors because they were manual. With the introduction of UiPath, we were able to reduce the time by half, and we were also able to reduce resources with these automations.

We don't use drag-and-drop APIs, but there are components that we drag and drop to build a UI that can connect to the backend robots. It has increased the effectiveness of how we implement apps. We can create the UI that we want visually, easily, and immediately. Through code, it would take us more time. UiPath's drag-and-drop functionality has drastically reduced the time because everything is visual. We are able to quickly build the app that we desire.

One of the features that I find most valuable is the Apps feature. We can easily create an app, or a web app, that can connect to the robots that we created with UiPath. It is just a drag-and-drop functionality, and we can implement an app with minimal code. Once we have the app ready, we can easily and quickly share it with other stakeholders so that they start using it. The apps are also pretty professional to be used at an enterprise level. That's the main feature I love in UiPath.

UiPath's community is great. It is a place where developers like us post questions and get answers from our fellow developers. We've been using that. Their community is very active. Some of the communities out there in the market don't seem to be as active as UiPath's community. Whenever I post a question, I get a detailed response within 5 to 10 hours, which is very good. My peers have also told me the same thing. We get support in the community, and we can also contact community members for help, and they are glad to help us with any problems.

UiPath is good in a lot of areas, but as an end user, I feel one thing that can be improved is UiPath Studio. It is an application that we can download to our system and then start building the use cases that we want. Sometimes, it takes a little bit of time to launch, and when we are building a complex application involving a lot of sequential flows, it tends to lag a bit. 

As a developer, initially, UiPath is a little bit difficult to understand because it has a lot of features and components available with it. Understanding each one takes a little bit of time. After we get into the solution, they can provide more out-of-the-box hands-on. It took some time for us to grasp the concepts and features of UiPath and then implement them. If that time could be reduced, it would be really good.

In terms of features, I'm happy with the features that UiPath offers.

It has been around one and a half years since I've been using UiPath in our company.

Its stability has been great. I've never seen it break or crash. It has been very reliable.

For production workflow, it is able to scale at high volume. It is able to take in a lot of transactions per second, which is really good for us because we have a huge customer base, and more customers are starting to onboard. The more RPA is used in the back end, the better it is. It is scalable as we expected it to be. It is able to cater to all the requirements that we have. 

One good feature of UiPath is that whenever I do a Google search, I get a lot of answers. The community of UiPath is very active, and they're great. Whatever question I post, I get a reply to it. 

They also provide professional service. We have the enterprise version, and they provide professional service and support. Anytime that we have raised a ticket with them, we typically get a response within 24 hours. That has been really good. I would rate them a nine out of ten.

Positive

We haven't used any other similar solution. We had in-house solutions, but they were not scalable. They couldn’t operate when the user base was increasing on a day-to-day basis. We saw UiPath and immediately went through the documents. Once we knew that UiPath could solve all our use cases, we just onboarded it and migrated all our in-house solutions to it, and since then, we haven't had any problems. It has been great.

I was not a part of the deployment team.

We were able to reduce the resources. Previously, if we used five resources, then after we introduced UiPath, the number went down from five to three. We need two less resources with the automation that UiPath provides. There is about a 25% increase in efficiency with the help of the automation that UiPath provides.

I'm not aware of the pricing because I'm on the development team. The pricing mostly comes from our marketing team. They handle the pricing with UiPath and give us access to the UiPath licenses as a company. 

We didn't evaluate other solutions. This was the first one that we encountered. 

We have not used UiPath's artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities, but we are doing research on that. We haven't yet implemented anything in production.

I haven't yet explored UiPath Academy, but I have heard about it.

I would rate UiPath a nine out of ten.
