Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions
I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

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

"BotFarm has been working perfectly fine with our business model. Its scalability is the most valuable feature. We can easily scale out bots on a need basis. Portability is another valuable feature. We work with different payment systems like Visa and MasterCard and have bots for them. Because of BotFarm, we are able to reuse these bots."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Productivity increased far more than thirty percent."
"The main features of the solution are the IQ Bot and web-based automation."
"The most valuable features are the portals for extracting data from PDF files, appending data to SAP, automating the SAP, downloading reports, and mapping and creating the reports accordingly to your requirements."
"Automation Anywhere has good document extraction features where it can learn patterns."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the Excel automation and support for SharePoint."
"The product has increased efficiency and reduced the time spent on tasks."
"It is saving us time through compliance."
"We are running around 20 bots and have 105 automations in production today. One of our automations saved 25,000 hours. Overall, I'll say we have more than 250,000 hours saved for the organization."
"We have a lot of processes to be automated, and UiPath helped us to be cost effective and time effective."
"The Orchestrator feature is the most valuable of all the automation solutions I have used, including OpenBots, Robocorp, and Microsoft Power Automate."
"The most important and valuable feature of UiPath is the ease of creating automations. It's a workflow-based model. End-to-end coverage is, no doubt, very important, because when you use a fragmented solution, the overall process flow becomes shaky. UiPath has the required capabilities to create an end-to-end solution for a business case."
"UiPath has saved us several hours of repetitive work, as well as people who are more motivated to seek personal and professional improvements."
"The biggest benefit that we have from UiPath comes from using the API."
"UiPath has helped speed up digital transformation and significantly reduced the cost of digital transformation."
 

Cons

"We have connectivity and integration with pretty much every single tech stack across the table that we have in the world, and there are a few areas that they don't do that well yet. I'd be looking for some improvement there, in terms of their integration with certain products."
"The new version is not very stable. Sometimes I can't use the recording sound."
"The solution doesn't have support like they used to. They need support. We have personnel of our own, but sometimes we need assistance beyond our own team."
"An area for improvement in BotFarm is that the communication between the Control Room and the Bot Client Missions isn't utilized well. There's also the issue with PCI DSS compliance or certain regulations that require a set of configurations that are not fully supported by BotFarm. The product should be certified or designed according to the required regulations in the finance industry to make it better."
"I would like to see more process mining features to give us insight into them before we develop automation."
"Normally we need to monitor the solution using an AWS console and the control room. We would like to have a standardized dashboard to see all the information in one place."
"We do have some troubles with the internal software commands, but we have been troubleshooting this bug to fix it."
"The pricing of this product could be better."
"I find the features UiPath provides to be excellent, but the documentation is difficult to maintain."
"The new features or functionalities that come with UiPath upgrades don't work perfectly in the initial days. Their new releases are not stable. We always find some set of issues. I have to work with the UiPath team for a week or so to resolve the issues, and then I'm able to use it. The stabilization should be there. We expect UiPath to reduce the number of errors before rolling out new features to end-users or customers."
"UiPath needs to improve its onboarding and operational excellence."
"UiPath needs to improve Orchestrator and its back office licenses."
"UiPath is not that stable. It has many issues sometimes."
"There is scope for improvement in the UiPath Platform, particularly with the Web Studio feature that has been launched recently. They could enhance the object repository feature, which allows maintaining selectors externally, as there are challenges associated with changes in selectors that require updating the library and the version in the code."
"More industry-specific training and information would be highly valuable to us."
"Capturing ROI needs improvement. I would also like for it to have more logging mechanisms in Orchestrator."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing for this solution can be better."
"Licenses are paid on a yearly basis and the cost is quite high."
"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."
"The pricing is fair."
"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
"We pay approximately $15,000 USD per year."
"The license of this solution is on an annual basis. The price is fair. However, what we did initially was a POC, but now we are looking at moving from a POC to expanding it out further. I would appreciate some kind of discount."
"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."
"UiPath is costly compared to Power Automate Desktop, but if you want to do most things, UiPath helps a lot. The more you use it, the cheaper it gets."
"We saved a little over $600,000. That totaled to almost 19 FTEs which we ended up saving."
"The pricing is fine and the features are good. Still, the pricing could be a little lower."
"Unattended bots are more valuable than attended bots."
"UiPath changed the way that they do licensing, starting in 2022. Any partner that has status with them is now allowed to sell licenses, because UiPath itself does not sell licenses anymore."
"This solution is worth the investment."
"Price-wise, it is not the cheapest one on the market, but it provides the fastest automation and the best training that I have ever seen for RPA, through the UiPath Academy."
"We only use the technical support when we were renewing our license. The process could be easier, as there are a lot of steps."
