Anuj Pratap Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
Achieve efficient automation in document processing with advanced data extraction features
When discussing Amazon Textract, the handwritten OCR quality is good. I'm working with multiple OCR solutions for handwritten data, and Amazon Textract is much better than other solutions. Amazon Textract is superior because it has features that allow you to use analytics or intelligent automation with the OCR. It will automatically identify key and value pairs, so you can use the data easily. For instance, if a PDF mentions a name, Amazon Textract can identify the key and value, translating that data automatically. Implementing Amazon Textract decreases manual effort in document processing tasks. For example, if any data entry is done by one employee, using the OCR will automatically decrease the man-hours required. Amazon Textract helps in compliance and auditing efforts because if I have a 100-page report that needs summarizing, I first need to extract data from it and input it into Excel. This data copy-pasting can be a challenging task for a human, but OCR simplifies it, enabling calculations to be implemented much faster and more efficiently.
Gangadhar Wali - PeerSpot reviewer
Pre-trained models work well, but it is very expensive
We have to do manual validation for some of the things due to the OCR engine not being so accurate. For example, S is read as 5, 5 as S, 2 as Z, and Z as 2. In the case of currency, if one dot is missing, it gives a completely incorrect number. These discrepancies should be fixed because if the OCR itself doesn't work properly, then AI doesn't help with that. When AI is used for training models, the AI Center works precisely, but if the data itself is wrong, we can't do anything. If the extraction of data is proper, it definitely helps. However, 20% errors could be reduced if the OCR engine were better. In future updates, I would like to see better handling of issues such as when a dot is missing in currency, for example, with dollars, it should handle that automatically. It's very expensive. If the volume increases, we can't afford to use Document Understanding. We are thinking of moving to another solution because we are expecting 80,000 to 100,000 invoices.

"Amazon Textract is superior because it has features that allow you to use analytics or intelligent automation with the OCR; it will automatically identify key and value pairs, so you can use the data easily."
"Machine learning is the most valuable feature of UiPath Document Understanding."
"Document Understanding has better machine learning or ML capabilities, and that is why I prefer Document Understanding."
"The most valuable feature is the ability for humans to train the bot."
"For me, the most valuable aspects of UiPath Document Understanding are its time efficiency and minimal human intervention."
"I like UiPath's machine-learning capabilities. My first impressions were good, but we only use it in a few processes. We intend to expand our use of these features in other situations, but we're still learning how to use the AI functions. We use the OCR much more."
"The UiPath Document Understanding tool is very easy to use for document understanding."
"UiPath Document Understanding's image file extraction feature is the best in any OCR solution."
"The entity-level extraction is very good. The workflow is also very good."
 

Cons

"The product has not given correct results for me. It was not accurate, especially with handwritten items and documents with pencil marks, which Amazon Textract failed to identify correctly."
"Sometimes the tabular data does not process properly for complex tabular structures or complex tables."
"They should provide an offline solution because in many areas in India and outside, there are clients facing Internet issues."
"They should provide an offline solution because in many areas in India and outside, there are clients facing Internet issues."
"The licensing model poses a significant challenge due to the fee charged for posting a model, which impedes the development of productivity-enhancing models."
"Its pricing can be improved."
"UiPath Document Understanding can improve its handwriting and signature recognition."
"There is also room for improvement in long-running table extraction. If a table continues for more than 10 pages, in some cases, we have observed that it only extracts six or seven pages and skips the last pages."
"There are also problems with handwritten documents. The results from those are not 90 percent accurate. With scanned and native PDFs, it is 90 to 99 percent accurate, but the accuracy of handwritten documents is somewhat less. If they could improve on that, it would also be helpful."
"The solution must localize the built-in features for supporting Arabic scripts so we do not rely on third-party tools."
"I encountered difficulties with UiPath Document Understanding in determining the appropriate OCR to use for certain files."
"UiPath Document Understanding has challenges with handwriting and screenshots."
