Its price is a bit high. I would rate it an eight out of ten for pricing. Most companies are using its licensed version. It has a lot of features such as Document Understanding, AI Center, etc. For simple automations, there is also a community version.
The UiPath license portal provides a dedicated space for managing licenses. All licenses originate from FlexTitle. For each license, such as those in the Test Suite or Action Center, there is a specific API call or number indicating the license count. Compared to other vendors, UiPath is known for its higher cost. However, this investment grants organizations a comprehensive environment for implementation. UiPath offers cloud and desktop features that are not currently available with competitors like Automation Anywhere or Power Automate. While these competitors may expand their offerings in the future, UiPath currently provides a more complete solution. The cost of a UiPath Test Suite license for five users is over $10,000 USD. We must purchase a license based on the number of users in our organization.

Automation Anywhere technically offers much better pricing and it's relatively more transparent than UiPath. However, UiPath is more customized for specific client requirements. They also provide a wide variety of features for the price. There may be extra costs, depending on the requirements. If it's a standard automation, there are no additional fees.

Regarding the pricing model, I believe it would be beneficial to combine it with some of the other platform aspects. Currently, test robots seem to be separate from other robots and their associated license counts. This is something I recommend changing. Ideally, I would like to see a system where we can run development, non-production, and production robots in the same way. This would mean combining production and non-production run times, potentially including mock production and automated testing runs under the non-production umbrella.

I am not a fan of the UiPath licensing model which is used by the major vendors in the RPA space. I prefer a consumption-based model because it provides greater flexibility for trying new products offered by UiPath and allows us to only pay for the time an automation is running (process automation or automated tests). Under the licensing model, I must purchase licenses upfront to handle the volume and need to purchase extra licenses to handle peaks in volume. These extra licenses are used to handle peaks, so the utilization of these licenses is low which makes them expensive to use.

When we decided to buy the solution three and a half years ago, it was fairly priced. The price was almost the same as the big competitors. I have heard that the price has increased. However, it was fairly priced when we bought it.
UiPath Test Suite is a cost-effective solution. Orchestrator is the most expensive UiPath module, costing around $20,000, but you don't need to purchase Orchestrator to use Test Suite. You can buy a nonproductive version that costs about $2,400. It's a better value than other products I've seen.
Transform automated testing for your software, automations, and QA teams with Test Suite: the resilient testing solution powered by the UiPath Business Automation Platform. Leverage production-grade, low-code automation and AI power tools to automate testing for any technology while still managing testing your way.

I am not aware of the exact cost. It seems reasonable, but it is an additional cost.

I've been able to find a way to work with UiPath without having to pay fees.
UiPath is very expensive.
I don't have any access to licensing or cost information. My understanding is that it is very affordable from a business perspective.
The price is a bit high. One robot license costs 1,500 euros.
