UiPath Reviews

We are looking at processes and automatization and are at the very beginning of our journey. We have been looking at finalizing the job and making the use cases in insurance assistance.

When we finish a job, we remove articles from it which are not being used. That was a manual process, and the guy who was doing it wasn't really adding any value to the company. Now, they only have to look for the exceptions, and everything else is automated.

• The automatization part
• The OCR technology: Having it automated and putting it into other systems.

I would like UiPath to be more intuitive, so people like me could use it.

Usability is its room for improvement.

Until the solution is more stable, the robots need to be Unattended.

The system is quite stable. However, we need more experience in coding it to make it even more stable.

The scalability is huge.

We have one guy doing the troubleshooting who likes to try different alternatives for locating answers, like YouTube or calling support.

The technical support has been very helpful. Whenever our guy has a problem, he first goes to the phone for a resolution. This is really the reason for choosing UiPath, because everybody else was so closed off, and it was hard to obtain knowledge.

We did not have a previous solution. This type of solution is quite new for us.

We decided to purchase this type of solution to reduce our backlog with insurers.

If you have the right person, the setup can be straightforward.

We had some issues in the beginning because some of our applications cannot run on Citrix. Having the robot run alongside it and going into the computer, then into Windows was difficult, at first. It has been working now that some of stability issues have been fixed. When it is not stable, things take too long.

We started with a consultant. We had some specific tasks that we wanted him to make the robots do. However, when we got started, we changed the approach to do it ourselves with him teaching us. We started with four people doing the training, then ended up with one person being capable.

We saw ROI in the first month that the first robot was implemented. Because we had people leaving when the robot was ready to start, it was ready to do their jobs right away. I would rate the ROI benefits as a nine out of ten.

It has helped us to eliminate human errors.

It has saved a lot of time for our organization.

We looked at three different vendors, but chose UiPath because of its easy access to knowledge and information.

Dive in, start working with it, and get experience along the way. Just working with it, you will get a lot of great ideas.

Our automation technology is at its beginning stages. There is huge potential for us with it. We need to start looking at our HR processes.

We have someone on our team who has just start to use the RPA training in the UiPath Academy.

We are working on changing all the administrations tasks at the college. For example, with travel refunds to the students, students currently have to go from their homes to the school before they can be refunded their expenses. We want to make a robot which does that instead of the people doing it. I'm using a measurement tool for distance to calculate the measurement from student's homes to the school. Then, this should calculate the amount the student should be refunded.

The product is easy to learn and begin using. When you are just getting starting, you can get deep dive and start using PowerShell and other tools.

It is easy to use and understand. You can learn it by yourself.

The reporting task needs improvement. The reporting is boring.

The product has been stable, so far. It is rare that it goes down.

The product will be able to grow with us.

I don't really use the support, because the product is that easy to use.

I have used the UiPath Academy, and it is great. The videos and questions are good in it.

It was easy to get started with PwC's help. It took a week.

We received help from PwC with the setup. They do most of the financing stuff with UiPath.

It has helped us eliminate human errors. People from the school doing the entry do not always follow the rules, and the robots are following the rules.

It is saving us time through compliance.

We also evaluated Blue Prism, Kofax Kapow, and Automation Anywhere.

The biggest deciding factor to go with UiPath was its community.

I am automating a validation of work items between BP open and SAP. Avoiding too much manual labor on the part of the user, freeing the time gained for more analytical and less repetitive work, all developed on Windows 10.

The tool has provided a safe and trustworthy way to develop robotic process automation, with a great increase in productivity and reduction of rework.

• The ease of learning, in addition to the great contents of the UiPath academy
• Speed to start producing results
• Extra friendly interface
• Excellent Orchestrator for managing robots and logs.

I miss a functionality similar to the "immediate window" of Visual Studio. The immediate window is used for debugging and evaluating expressions, executing statements, and printing variable values. The immediate window evaluates expressions by building and using the currently selected project. Therefore, this would be a great facility for debugging using UiPath.

• Automating applications that the client requires in the project
• Mostly automating day-to-day tasks which are like user-setup, user termination and password-reset in an application. 

We use the 2018 version. The community of UiPath is very supportive and active; that makes it very much understanding.

It made automation very easy with the help of experts from UiPath. Using this tool made a very easy way to automate the applications that our organization uses daily like time filling. For the beginners, UiPath provides a platform which helps them to have a better understanding of UiPath. Also, it has a community edition that helps to have a good hands-on experience for a beginner.

The OCR capability of UiPath makes it special as this feature was not in my previous automation tool. When I started using this tool, it made it compatible with automating some complex applications like reading PDFs, virtual machines and some more Citrix applications that were hard to automate using other tools. Its recording feature is also one of the best features along with its pricing as it charges money as per robot usage by the Orchestrator.

The tool is perfect as it is a full-on package, but yes it needs some improvements like when we use the OCR feature of the tool it works, but when we try to fetch the data from the image which is of low resolution, its accuracy of fetching the data decreases. Sometimes the data gets some garbage values added to the data that is fetched. This needs some improvement. Also, if the page has some dynamic background, then fetching the data becomes harder.

We use the solution to pull documents from audit systems, download documents from document management systems, and grab data from financial management systems. 

I like UiPath's framework. It offers a modern design experience, which makes it easy to do different activities. 

The solution is expensive. 

I have been using the product for four years. 

The product is stable. 

UiPath is scalable. 

UiPath's support is great. 

Positive

UiPath's deployment within our environment is complex. However, we have online resources available. 

We have seen ROI with the tool's use. 

The tool's pricing depends on its use. It is expensive. 

Our business objective was to improve manual processes and increase efficiency. 

Task Capture helps to build documentation. 

UiPath has freed up our resources' time. 

I rate it a ten out of ten. 

I use UiPath to reduce any data entry, report generation, or anything where UiPath can help avoid human errors.

The solution is very user-friendly and easy to use. It comes with pre-built automation. The tutorials are very helpful. 

I have been working with the product for six months. 

The tool is stable. 

UiPath is scalable. 

The tool's support is helpful. 

I use UiPath to reduce human errors during report generation or data entry. Simple errors can cause delays down the stream. 

The product has helped us save hours, which can range from a few hours to tens of thousands of hours. 

UiPath has helped us increase accuracy. It is helpful in data validation. 

I rate it a ten out of ten. 

We use the solution for task automation. 

The automation for building tasks is good. It reduces the manpower needed. It helps us automate large projects. 

It's easy to create automation with the solution. Once we understand the process, we can easily create an automation. 

We use end-to-end automation. It helps us remove the need for manual labor. 

We are satisfied with the user community UiPath offers as well. 

The solution has helped simplify projects and our requirements. 

We've used the Academy courses. Anyone can access it. It's great that anyone can take advantage of it. You don't need to be technical. 

The solution has reduced the cost of digital transformation.

It's helped reduce human error by 100%.

The solution has freed up employee time.

UiPath should improve the document understanding a bit. 

I have been using the solution since 2021.

The solution is stable. 

We have 50+ users using the solution. 

It's scalable. 

Technical support is good. 

Positive

I did not use a different solution. 

The deployment was not complex. It's easy. We had to test it a bit manually. Once we were sure we had the right requirements in place, we implemented it. 

It only takes ten minutes to deploy the solution. 

When you change the version of the solution, there is some maintenance required. 

We've used the enterprise version of the solution. 

We're developers. We have customers that use UiPath. 

We can implement the AI functionality, however, we haven't used it yet.

I'd rate the product nine out of ten. 

We provide RPA solutions to different companies in FinTech, finance, and other fields. We are mainly working on their recently launched product called UiPath Apps, and I'm designing apps with UiPath Apps.

I'm not from an IT background, but I'm still able to do development by using UiPath because of their minimum coding approach. They have a drag-and-drop facility. You just need to create the logic. You just need to imagine the data workflow, and then without using any code, you just create a workflow in UiPath Studio, and it'll start working.

It has been helpful in automating repetitive tasks and invoice processing. We are getting very good results, and we are continuously improving the processes in our office.

We are able to remove all repetitive tasks. We are using RPA for HR, salary generation, interview process, appointment, etc. We are using RPA everywhere. We are in the top five just because of RPA. It's very important for us.

UiPath Apps has increased the number of automations we create while reducing the time it takes to create them. We have saved approximately 30 minutes because with the use of UiPath Apps, we are not going to open any browser, and we are directly launching our processes by using UiPath App. There is no third-party integration. That's why the process is quite fast.

We have some automations that require collaboration between the robot and humans. The representative sitting in front of the system is now free for other work. The repetitive tasks are done by the robots. If there is any error in the workflow, the robot sends a message to a representative. The representative only needs to get involved when there is an issue, and the robot will start again. So, most of the time, our representatives are free for other work, and most of the work is done by the robot. It has reduced 50% to 60% of day-to-day office work. People have a lot more time to do other important tasks.

Our AI department with 20 to 25 members uses its AI functionality, which has enabled us to automate more processes. With the help of AI, we are able to do more complex automation. We are also able to process unstructured data.

It speeds up digital transformation and reduces the cost of digital transformation without requiring expensive or complex application upgrades, or IT application support. It's all included in the same price.

It has definitely reduced human error. We are now able to improvise our document understanding. We are also able to read handwriting with 90% to 95% accuracy. There is no intervention of humans in the onboarding process, and HR is now free for other work. The joining process, appointment letters, document verification, and other things are automated. Previously, just the document verification would take an hour for a single employee. They're now using their free time to upscale and broaden our company's business. They can take on extra work or projects during their office time.

It has been quite good in terms of employee satisfaction. We have a rating of 4.8 out of 5 in terms of employee satisfaction.

It has reduced the costs of our automation operations by 5% to 8%. It's not much because there are very few people involved in the HR department for the onboarding process.

It has saved costs. The organization is able to reduce the number of non-skilled people. That's quite impressive. They are saving a lot. They are hiring only skilled people. Previously, they needed four to five people for all the repetitive tasks, and now, a single person can do that work.

Their AI center is quite good. It provides a very efficient way to work.

UiPath Apps is a recently launched app by UiPath. It has lots of great features, such as direct integration of data in their UIs. It's very easy to display the required data, and the integration of the processes is also easy. It's easy to integrate the processes or workflows designed in the Studio with UiPath Apps. You don't need any coding or complex scripts behind this.

We are using the UiPath Academy. We are doing some on-premises training and online training to give the intro about RPA to our employees. UiPath Academy is completely free. The idea of role-based learning is very impressive and effective. If you are a developer, you just go and click on role-based learning. You will get all the data in a format required by a developer to learn and get to things.

The UiPath community is quite impressive. We get the answers within minutes or seconds. It depends upon how to post or publish on the committee forum. When I compare it to other industries, the UiPath community is categorized according to the technology. They have every category. For the UiPath App part, they only have the UiPath App experts. Similarly, in the Studio part, they have only studio experts. The UiPath people are already available in the forum. If you didn't get your answer, you will get the answer from the company itself.

I have been working on UiPath Apps for the last six months, and there are a few things to improve. The tables are not working properly. There are issues with the table display and the filter function in the tables. There is also an alignment issue. You can't edit the alignment of buttons.

There is also a lack of tutorials. They have a lot more functions, but there aren't enough tutorials to know how to use all the functions. They have free training in UiPath Academy, which is good, but the way of training is not impressive. They're using the textual format. They are providing lots of documents to read. It would be more effective if they were in video format. It takes more time to read and understand the content in text format.

It has been four years. 

It's completely scalable. We have approximately 150 users. We are mainly a UiPath organization, and it's being used daily. Our company started in 2017 or 2018, and we are only providing the RPA solution. In the last five years, we are one of the growing industries in India. We are in the top five companies in India in RPA.

I would rate them a 10 out of 10. Even their software developers are ready to take the questions. Many times, I've also talked to the developers from UiPath about our doubts and problems.

Positive

I have worked with Automation Anywhere. I switched because of the ease and less complexity of UiPath. It's easy to use and easy to install.

I have also tried Blue Prism. Blue Prism is more complex. It's even more complex than Automation Anywhere.

It's simple. It's a one-click installation. It takes a few minutes or even seconds.

It can be deployed by a single employee. The solution architect can deploy it.

Before searching anywhere else, just go for the UiPath Academy training. You will get all the things there. After finishing the training, you can switch to YouTube and other resources. The UiPath Academy is sufficient to teach you about any launched product.

I would rate UiPath a 10 out of 10.
