UiPath Reviews

We are checking products in search of a better RPA solution for our landscape.

This solution has increased productivity in our organization.

The most valuable feature is its ease of use.

Better alignment of workflows for development is needed.

The robots have completed the job in a short time by reducing the personnel load.

The most beautiful feature of UiPath is that it has an easy-to-use interface. I can design a robot even without a software. Drag-and-drop development is very convenient for the user in terms of user experience. Also, other ERP systems, Office applications, API services being able to integrate is also very useful for the developer.

• Drag and drop development is very convenient for the user in terms of user experience.
• It has an easy-to-use interface.
  

• UiPath IDE error messages are not comprehensible.
• Error messages can be detected by messages from the end user's understanding.

I basically use UiPath robotic process automation for everyday processes that can be done without my intervention.

UiPath robotic process automation helps us save time and effort by doing daily tasks instead of us doing them.

The most valuable feature of UiPath robotic process automation is the drag-and-drop functionality which helps us easily and quickly create the processes we need.

They could really improve the advanced training. It is too shallow and makes quick jumps from concepts, and you cannot really learn how to work more advancedly with it.

It was used for the automation of web-based applications in the banking sector. The challenge was to read information in image-based forms.

We built a use case out of the free community edition. There was a lot of support available from the community. Once we got the full-scale implementation, we were able to purchase a license.

AI-based computer vision solves an important problem of capturing information from VDIs and images.

There is a lot of scope to integrate more AI-based features that will help improve the reading of unstructured data. 

We are a consulting company that develops robots for various customers using the RPA tool UiPath. Often, we install UiPath on virtual machines.

UiPath speeds up the implementation of robots and allows integration with other external tools.

I've been working with UiPath for seven months and I think it's a good workmate. The tool is young so, sometimes, strange problems happen. However, the UiPath support team is always available and quick to help you find a solution to the problem.

I think it's a good product and it will get better and better.

I would like that in the official documentation of UiPath there were examples of the use of the various activities and that, on the forum were highlighted the resolutions to problems that really work, in order to find them more easily.

My primary use case is to automate the process of RPO. Here we use data scraping, web recording, email automation, integration of multiple application, etc. 

Since we automated the RPO process, our employees' submission and closure rate have been increased. Also, the workforce of the employees has been increased. Also, we are thinking of how to utilize the employees more to increase the productivity.

Data scraping is more valuable as the performance and preciseness are excellent. Now UiPath introduces UiPath GO which has a wide number of activities, and it is really useful for us. 

• For data scraping, the websites which have iframes are not extracting properly. 
• Also, the API generation in UiPath is not that much easy. It would be nice if we have an activity which easily converts a workflow into API.

Reading non-PO invoice details from SharePoint form, validating it, sending it for manager approval, and on receiving manager approval mail, entering the invoice details with invoice and approval attachments to SAP.

Getting forecast values of demand management processes in an Excel attachment and mail body from customers directly, analyzing it, processing it, and inserting it into the database so that the demand forecast team can get data easily without human effort.

Eliminated human errors: The manual actions had caused an error in the excel formula, and it was unknown to the business until the UiPath RPA tool was implemented.

Human efforts were reduced in handling non-PO invoice and data insertion to SAP. 

• Unlike other leading RPA tools, UiPath provides a great user interface so that a person with minimum technical knowledge can understand the flow.
• UiPath provides a large number of activities which we can reuse as per our need just by changing the properties and parameters.
• UiPath provides the flexibility to create custom activities as per our need.
• UiPath supports integration with various OCR, cognitive services, ML and IoT related services and tools.
• UiPath provides the flexibility to use an unattended robot without the need for Orchestrator.
• UiPath Orchestrator component is a very powerful tool which if utilized effectively, can make the robot management and monitoring very easy.
• UiPath Orchestrator supports using APIs, in which we can get the details from the Orchestrator database.
• UiPath’s recording feature is very helpful to begin the automation process and provides options to choose from recorders as per our need.
• UiPath supports version controlling feature which is very useful when the project is done by sharing tasks with multiple persons in the team.
• UiPath provides various workflow models such as sequence, flowchart, and state machine.
• UiPath provides an inbuilt logging facility.
• UiPath provides scraping of both structured and unstructured data.
• UiPath provides specific tutorial and documentation for SAP automation.
• UiPath supports .NET, Python, and JavaScript codes.
• UiPath provides debugging options usage, in which we can go through each activity along with the process flow, highlighting each action on the screen along with the flow, and showing the values of variables at the run time during the point execution of an activity.
• UiPath provides the facility to use numerous .NET namespaces by importing them easily to the project.
• UiPath provides the flexibility to create a custom activity from our custom .NET DLL.

• UiPath’s reluctance to add the support of C#/.NET code till now.
• The UiPath tool doesn’t provide an option to resize the activities as per wish, especially if the activity is a big box.
• Non-availability of maximizing options in the property edit box, argument value edit box, etc.
• No option to mark a set of activities as favorites in all projects done in a system. We have to set favorite activities separately for each project.
• The comment option could be better. When an activity or sequence is commented on, there will be two wrapping sequences which are unnecessary.
• Also, the display name is always the same, the display name of a commented section should be the display name of the sequence or the display name of the activity itself. 

I work for an SI implementing UiPath for a range of customers in Australia.

As an implementor, we appreciate the rich feature set of UiPath and the strong training provided.

• Extensive overall functionality and integration with Microsoft products
• The studio is easy to use, and 
• The product is feature rich.

• Linux support
• Better cloud integration and stronger auditing for governance. 

But overall, this product is excellent.
