User-friendly interface and community support drive task automation while documentation needs enhancement
Pros and Cons
  • "The user interface of UiPath is very easy to understand, and one does not need a technical background to learn it."
  • "There is a need for more videos and examples on upcoming enhancements and changes."

What is our primary use case?

The primary use case for UiPath is to automate tedious tasks in my organization and previous organizations. It's very friendly, offering free licensing, which makes it easy for people to learn and work with it. The ability to automate repetitive activities that take a lot of time is a significant advantage.

How has it helped my organization?

UiPath has enabled tasks to be done quickly and on schedule without human errors. It allows repetitive processes to be performed multiple times without issues, freeing human resources from tedious daily activities.

What is most valuable?

The user interface of UiPath is very easy to understand, and one does not need a technical background to learn it. The community is supportive, providing alternative solutions and quick responses. UiPath's flexibility allows for significant automation, reducing manual errors significantly. The ability to have an orchestrator to manage processes efficiently is another valuable feature.

What needs improvement?

There is a need for more videos and examples on upcoming enhancements and changes. If they can improve the OCR engine and provide more detailed documentation and multiple examples, it would be helpful for adapting to new updates.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using UiPath for almost nine years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Stability-wise, the tool is good, however, each upgrade requires a lot of preparation, as it involves changing infrastructure and testing new capabilities.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

There are no scalability issues mentioned in the transcript.

How are customer service and support?

Technical support is rated seven on a scale from one to ten due to long communication cycles before getting hands-on help. However, they usually provide solutions and alternative methods that are helpful.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I previously used other RPA tools, including Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere. UiPath offers free licensing for learning, which is an advantage over other tools.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is straightforward. On-premises deployment involves getting the development package and deploying it. Hybrid models require coordination with others but are not complex.

What was our ROI?

While specific numbers are not provided, UiPath certainly performs well in automating repetitive tasks, which likely contributes to a positive ROI.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Based on past experience, UiPath's pricing is moderate when compared to other tools. I rate it at seven out of ten in terms of cost.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Alternate solutions evaluated include Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere. Each has different strengths, but UiPath is preferred for its user-friendly interface and community support.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate UiPath seven out of ten based on my current experience. For people from both technical and non-technical backgrounds, it's a great tool due to its easy learning curve. The licensing makes it accessible for learning and development.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Hybrid Cloud
