Delivers increased productivity and streamlines fraud processing in banking, though technical support could be faster
Before AutomationEdge, we had to hire coder-level experts with Java or Python knowledge. This approach took considerable time and required error handling to automate processes. With this tool, all processes are automatically handled with errors, and no-code automation is available. The cost for a developer is now significantly lower. Previously, we hired highly efficient developers with high salary packages. The license cost of 5 to 10 lakhs per year for one person to automate is equivalent to a person's annual salary. With the license and a developer hired at 3 to 5 lakhs, we can automate 40 to 50 processes.

Significantly reduces manual effort and improves team workflows through automated ticketing
We've used Agent Builder, IXP, and Maestro for orchestration. We have created context-grounded searches or chatbots using context grounding, and we also use context grounding within an Agentic flow where a bot or agent reads ServiceNow tickets to determine whether it has been assigned to the right work group. If it has not been assigned correctly due to human error, it automatically reassigns it to the right group. I would assess Agentic AI's ability to extract data points as effective. We created an agent for the purpose of extracting data, though not in a document. We created what we call an email conversation agent that engages with a customer, vendor, or someone in an email conversation with a set goal of extracting specific data points for an action to be performed subsequently. The one automation we have deployed in production involves the agent interacting with team members to collect data points and create a ServiceNow ticket. We appreciate almost all features of UiPath Platform, with one of the most successful ones being the use of Coms Mining. Most of the new features related to AI have all been good, and we use Agentic. We have already created a few agents and have started to use Maestro for a few flows, though we are not yet there to orchestrate an end-to-end workflow. We have good ROI from the automations we have developed with UiPath Platform, which far exceeds the investment in the platform. It has saved us tens of thousands of hours in manual effort, making the team members happy to pursue other things of value.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The chatbot that they have is most valuable. It is one of the best features because they own it, and they don't need to integrate with other parties to have a chatbot. This is one of the main features. The rest of the features are common to all RPA tools or vendors available in the market."
"The support from the vendor is very good."
"It is a valuable tool for developing efficient solutions, especially in finance and banking."
"The product's most valuable feature is the executor."
"AutomationEdge has shown the most productive impact, and the productivity was excellent before, and now it can increase by 20 to 30% more with AI implementation."
"Attended versus unattended automation in AutomationEdge has benefited my organization significantly."
"The staff went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect, even surprising us with a complimentary dessert to celebrate our anniversary."
"We can quickly adapt to our end users."
"For some complex automations, we can integrate with VBScript and Python scripts if necessary, however, initial automation does not require in-depth programming knowledge."
"The best feature, for sure, is the ease of development. It's very easy to create an automation from scratch... UiPath has a more friendly development environment compared to other vendors of RPA."
"The speed to market is amazing because an automation can go from the initial planning conversation to production in weeks."
"It has reduced human error because there would be some different document types. It's able to detect multiple types versus a user finding one document type when there could be multiple document types that are associated with a letter, while the user is browsing over it that can be missed in the second document type. But when you're looking at machine learning and at the text, it'll be able to easily pick out those keywords from a document that has multiple document types."
"We are using the RE framework and it's very helpful for delivering the product on time."
"Their core platform of Studio is valuable. The ease of use and the ability to build these automations quickly is definitely a highlight for us. Our average process from start to finish takes three to four weeks. We can knock out automations as quickly as we can identify them. That is probably the best feature I see."
"Within UiPath Cloud itself, UiPath Insights has been excellent. Insights is one of the newer features we were excited about because we built custom reports, captured all that data in one place, and leveraged it in different areas. That was a challenge for us and created a support burden. We're automation developers, not report developers. When leadership wanted a new metric or anything, figuring it out was always a pain."
"Storing data partially using internal data tables for internal calculations, without relying on a full database, is most beneficial for our workflows."
 

Cons

"AutomationEdge's primary issue is its price point, especially compared to other products."
"It's not an intuitive tool."
"They could provide more technologies for IT and security to enhance machine learning capabilities."
"With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming."
"AutomationEdge's ecosystem has shortcomings and needs improvement. When we compare AutomationEdge to other RPA tools in our company, we find that it has a very minor online community."
"We cannot use extra modules while working with AutomationEdge. It crashes if we have lots of data to process in Excel."
"The installation process could improve. It was difficult to complete."
"In the future, they should have a similar version for the cloud and on-premises, and the installation should be flawless within few minutes."
"Sometimes they concentrate too much on the citizen developer and not enough on enterprise developers or enterprises, as we consistently deliver suggestions to their product team that could make improvements."
"The forum's a great place, however, for a new person, it was better some years ago. It's grown so fast, and it's not that as nimble. Previously, if you asked questions and the response time was quicker."
"I would like to see higher end AI type features natively in UiPath. Some native integration over time would help."
"While I like the Academy a lot, it could maybe go deeper into some of the topics."
"UiPath is not that stable. It has many issues sometimes."
"We went for the big wins with automations that would return a lot of resource hours, however, in hindsight, we should have brought in partners to track down and develop various use cases for automation."
"UiPath Platform can be improved with better navigation and documentation."
"Previous Orchestrator versions were very user-friendly for the admins and the users, but the new Orchestrator is a bit advanced. If they could reduce its complexity, to something more like what it used to be like, it would be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."
"The product is available at the lowest price."
"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."
"If you are looking for a budget solution, you can consider AE. It has all the features. Scaling it is way easier because of the cost itself."
"Pricing can be made better. Currently, I think the pricing is based on the market. The pricing also depends on the business partners that offer you the solution."
"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."
"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."
"We would like to see improvement on the ROI, as we need to free up resources. Too many man-hours are being spent on trivial tasks which could be automated."
"UiPath is a little more costly than competing solutions such as Automation Anywhere."
"The licensing is close to optimum; however, there is room for improvement in both the cost and flexibility of the licenses."
"It is cheaper than Microsoft Power Automate and saves us between 50 and 70 percent on costs. UiPath's pricing is moderate and something everyone can afford."
"UiPath is reasonably priced for being a leader in the market."
"UiPath is reasonably priced."
"We have a cost model for operating expense savings. It is usually about $100,000 to $125,000 and takes us six weeks to develop and implement. That's development, testing, and implementation. We do code reviews on everything. That does not include all the documentation, assessment, etc."
"Given how cheap it is to initially buy the product, the licensing methodology that they have in terms of renewing every year is appropriate. Later on, if they start charging more early on, for deployment, buying the license, and deploying it initially, then having a lower maintenance fee might be more appropriate. Now, with the scale they are at, it is an appropriate way to do the licensing."
