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 ability to automate our processes with external plug-ins and zero code is the most valuable feature."

"If we want to change your processes, we can code it from scratch, making it a beneficial feature of the product."

"Attended versus unattended automation in AutomationEdge has benefited my organization significantly."

"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."

"The support from the vendor is very good."

"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."

"We can quickly adapt to our end users."

"The most valuable feature of AutomationEdge is creating accounts."

More AutomationEdge pros

"UiPath has helped reduce human error. We are working with clients where it is very important to provide them their necessary services. We are a telecom company, so we are providing activation of numbers, etc. If people are doing this manually, it can cause inconveniences for our clients, but it might also put the reputation at stake. For example, because when people do it manually, they can send out the wrong invoice. This is a huge reputation risk, because sometimes we are working not only with just a person, but with a business. When we work with other companies, it is important to do things accurately. When the robots do things, there is almost a 100% probability that they won't make any mistakes, like typos."

"It is great for automation. It can reduce the time needed for the entire work assignment, freeing up time for something more exciting."

"UiPath has helped speed up digital transformation and significantly reduced the cost of digital transformation."

"Regarding the ease of building automations, I'm not sure how it's done because I'm not a programmer myself, but it's great. Just looking at how fast they moved once we had the program settled in — it was quite fast. For this particular process, which is assembling a document, talking to DocuSign, sending out emails, and so on, the deployment of production was like "today." It was quite quick."

"Valuable features include the OCR capabilities, to take somewhat structures data and put them into more structured data so that we can do our analysis. Another is screen scraping and, finally, the overall process of integrating it with other applications that we use in our analysis. It has also exceeded our expectations in the fact that it's a lot faster to implement than we thought it would be."

"The software has an excellent UI; it's very user-friendly. The drag-and-drop options are some of my favorite tools, as they speed up the process, and I find that UiPath offers a solution for all kinds of automation."

"The features of UiPath Platform that I appreciate the most are Queues and Orchestration, which have benefited my organization by saving hundreds of thousands of productivity hours and labor hours per year."

"UiPath reduces human error. That is one of the main reasons why automation is done for customers."

More UiPath Platform pros

Cons

"Regarding stability and reliability, AutomationEdge is mid-range. When compared with other tools such as Automation Anywhere and UIPath, they are more stable than AutomationEdge."

"The ease of use is the main thing on which they really have to focus. If they want to go against the giants, it should be improved in ease of use, and it should be more user-friendly. It would be helpful because everyone should be empowered irrespective of whether they know how to code or not. They should enhance its user interface and make it more intuitive."

"It's not an intuitive tool."

"In the future, they should have a similar version for the cloud and on-premises, and the installation should be flawless within few minutes."

"There are some shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement."

"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."

"With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming."

More AutomationEdge cons

"Technical support from my experience takes considerable time to respond. Most of the time, by the time they get back to us and we work through it, we either figure it out ourselves or find answers in the community."

"It could improve the service by resolving the bugs and providing the fixes as soon as possible."

"UiPath needs work on the governance side. For example, they released Studio Web this year and have started work on its governance, but it initially lacked control from an administration standpoint. You could not lock down third-party libraries or other applications and integrations it had built in."

"The billing plans should be improved."

"Their support should be improved in terms of response time."

"There is a lot of complexity in the things we can do in UiPath, like connecting to an organization's databases or using APIs in the process."

"They can improve integration with other types of systems by giving us more connectors. That would mean UiPath would work natively with more applications. With that done, they will have built a fantastic solution."

"While the solution speeds up the cost of digital transformation, doing so requires expensive or complex application upgrades or IT app support."

More UiPath Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."

"The product is available at the lowest price."

"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."

"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."

"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."

"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."

"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."

"UiPath's pricing and licensing have been reasonable and manageable for us. Despite challenges in constantly monitoring SharePoint folders, UiPath has worked well within our resources. We have a fully dedicated, unattended license for our invoice processing, which needs to be a top priority and is always running throughout the day. We have another one for all of our other scheduled automations, and we've been pleased with that so far."

"Go download it, install it, and play with it. You can't do this with any of the other platforms."

"UiPath is expensive."

"Its pricing is straightforward. There are two editions: one is the community edition and one is the enterprise edition, which is a paid one. The paid edition is priced reasonably. They charge extra for additional training and implementation, but that should be bundled up with the enterprise edition itself. All in all, it's reasonably priced."

"UiPath is a good deal all round."

"The license cost is expensive because we have to pay for each tenant."

"We analyzed and compared the costs of RPA from different vendors and we found that UiPath was the most cost-effective in the long term. An unattended robot costs approximately $8,500 annually."

"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."
