Daily orchestration of complex ai workflows has boosted my research and automation capabilities
Orchestration primarily decides which agent handles which part of a task and manages errors, retries, and complete state while maintaining the workflow effectively. On the orchestration side, branching, looping, and human approvals support non-linear workflows in production environments with real-time access. Through refined and improved prompts, this helps in closing the loop with actual users. One unique feature that stood out is that every step in the workflow can pause or recover from failures. Instead of finishing the entire agent in one go, this approach is interesting because if there is a minor change in a previously completed step regarding the state, I can re-edit and restart from the beginning. This is truly impressive.

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

"Glean Platform has positively impacted our organization, especially in terms of productivity for both us and our customers."
"Glean Platform has increased productivity by at least one hundred hours per week for my organization."
"The major impact that I have noticed is how business users are now being impacted and they are using the platform because they understand it easily."
"Glean Platform offers excellent user interface design and integration capabilities with other platforms."
"Glean Platform has positively impacted my organization by speeding up a lot of repetitive tasks and making it easier for people outside of support to understand what kind of issues impact the support groups."
"I have used many solutions, but Glean Platform is the best, and I would truly appreciate it if everyone considers this platform."
"The best features Glean Platform offers are mostly the view, which I think is very good, and what I find most helpful about the view is that the user interface is very good, making it very easy to chat with the chatbot and get all the material that I want in the way that I need it."
"Life became so easy when we started using Glean Platform."
"UiPath saves us time and increases productivity for our organization."
"The solution is stable. I don't see any problems."
"As we are mostly using unintended robots right now, the main value we see is the ability for the solution to take away the redundant tasks. That's the key value. But there's tremendous potential in the attended or hybrid model. The value I see there is allowing people to automate partially or at a time. And whether that's something that we've identified clearly now or something that we look at in the future, I think that lives in the attended or hybrid piece. It would be nice to just see what more we could do and what more value we could add to the business there."
"The option to record processes is the most important feature of UiPath. We can use it to record every action automatically and it is then converted to a workflow. This workflow defines the complete set of processes so that we can automate every requirement."
"It's helped us reduce manual work for our employees and customers."
"We saw benefits with the first automation that was implemented, because it started to work and free people from routine work, within the first second of the automation working."
"We recently had a project that would take a human who's actually navigating through the screens and clicking all the buttons roughly a month's worth of work, if that was their primary focus all day long, and we were able to get that completed within two days using UiPath."
"So far, almost 60% turnaround in the business profit has been reported."
 

Cons

"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that the licenses were expensive, and it was hard to convince the company to adopt based on that."
"Currently, Glean Platform does not integrate with Teams, Microsoft-owned platforms."
"Glean Platform can implement more models. The NLP creation could be a little faster, and while debugging is amazing, the routing also needs to provide higher quality outputs sometimes rather than extensive searching."
"Sometimes Glean Platform gets slowed down."
"I chose seven out of ten because if I could upload PDFs and have them analyzed, or have it integrate with my Gmail and help me go through my emails, that would be very useful, but I do not think it does that."
"Also, the latency that the platform offers is a little high right now; what I have noticed is that on a particular query, the user has to wait a long time in order to get responses."
"I tried pulling in an architecture diagram of a workflow, and it pulled in some other image instead."
"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Glean Platform reveals limited options, and I wish there was more customization available."
"The OCR functionality for this solution could be improved. It should have a better capability to read unstructured documents."
"What could be improved in UiPath is the release or update because my organization noticed that a few minor bugs occur from time to time, mainly on the development side. UiPath releases need to be improved."
"Overall, at this point, the AI models and machine learning models are not very accurate."
"The logging capability that comes with Orchestrator does not allow you to create smart reports."
"Our developers experienced some sluggishness while developing a very large automation."
"UiPath's pricing could be improved. The margins for us as a bottom-level tier partner are not great, which can be a hindrance, particularly when we present it to the customer. Other than that, I don't have any areas of improvement at the moment due to our limited experience. Maybe after six months to a year, we might have more feedback."
"There is a need for better autopilot features to enhance the functionality of UiPath."
"With artificial intelligence or natural language processing, we need to get in touch with the servers, however, we cannot do it without getting a proper license. Maybe a mode of artificial intelligence and natural language processing should be included without needing a different license."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"UiPath is starting to price itself out of the market. It's getting expensive. That's fine if they continue to push the envelope of what they offer, but it's all about perception. And the perception over the last two years with my customers is that it's expensive."
"Our licensing costs are around $40,000 a year."
"As compared to the competition, its pricing is on the higher side. However, looking at the services you are getting, it is justified. It allows you to cater to more use cases."
"There are cheaper options than UiPath."
"For the features and the quality of features that they provide, it's a very reasonably priced product."
"The community edition is completely free. Then, people say, "There is nothing to lose, let me try it.""
"The pricing is very expensive, making it challenging to continue using UiPath when competitors like Microsoft offer cheaper alternatives like Power Automate. Why continue to use UiPath when you're paying three to five times more?"
"I began learning UiPath with the Community version, which is available free of charge."
