Customization and integration empower diverse AI applications
We are familiar with most Google Cloud services, particularly infrastructure services, storage, compute, AI tools, containerization, GCP containerization, and cloud SQL. We are familiar with approximately eighty percent of Google's services, primarily related to infrastructure, AI, containers, backup, storage, and compute. We are familiar with Gemini AI and Google Vertex AI, and we have completed some exercises and cases with our customers for Google AI. We use automation in machine learning. I work with a team where everyone has specific responsibilities. We have design and development processes in place. Based on my experience, I would rate Google Vertex AI a 9 out of 10.

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

"Google Vertex AI is better for deployment, configuration, delivery, licensing, and integration compared to other AI platforms."
"The support is perfect and fantastic."
"We extensively utilize Google Cloud's Vertex AI platform for our machine learning workflows. Specifically, we leverage the IO branch for EDA data in Suresh Live Virtual, employing Forte IT for training machine learning models. The AI model registry in Vertex AI is crucial for cataloging and managing various versions of the models we develop. When it comes to deploying models, we rely on Google Cloud's AI Prediction service, seamlessly integrating it into our workflow for real-time predictions or streaming. For monitoring and tracking the outcomes of model development, we employ Vertex AI Monitoring, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the model's performance and results. This integrated approach within Vertex AI provides a unified platform for managing, deploying, and monitoring machine learning models efficiently."
"The most valuable feature we've found is the model garden, which allows us to deploy and use various models through the provided endpoints easily."
"The integration of AutoML features streamlines our machine-learning workflows."
"Vertex comes with inbuilt integration with GCP for data storage."
"Google Vertex AI is an out-of-the-box and very easy-to-use solution."
"The most useful function of Google Vertex AI for me is the ease of integration, as we can easily create a prompt and integrate it into our current system."
"The user interface is simple and allows people to learn from it faster than other applications."
"A lot of the prebuilt models that are on an AI Center are valuable. Being able to go in there and train your data, give sample data, label the fields, and different OCR methods are also valuable."
"The document extraction or document understanding feature of UiPath is valuable. It basically extracts data from the PDF."
"UiPath has improved the ease of building automations. We were using SeleniumBase testing which is a legacy application and required a lot of manual work to maintain it."
"UiPath has enabled us as an organization to perform an array of tasks with more proficiency and efficiency. Automation is very important to our organization now and UiPath has played an immense role."
"It's highly effective in pinpointing areas within the organization where assistance is required."
"I find the solution easy to use... I've been able to take people with absolutely zero technical background and quickly scale them up in a matter of weeks so they're building bots. I haven't been able to accomplish that same feat with the other platforms."
"The UiPath Apps feature has helped to reduce the workload for our IT department by enabling end-users to create apps. Even some of the business people have been trained to do that. They have been able to build small, attended bots."
 

Cons

"We used AutoML feature for developing AI models automatically, but we are not comfortable with the performance of those models."
"Google can improve Google Vertex AI in terms of analysis and accuracy. When passing a very large context, instead of receiving vague responses, it would be better if the system could prompt users not to pass overly large prompts and provide clearer guidance on how to fine-tune Gemini for specific use cases."
"I've noticed that using chat activity often presents a broader range of options and insights for a well-constructed question. Improving the knowledge base could be a key aspect for enhancement—expanding the information sources to enhance the generation process."
"I'm not sure if I have suggestions for improvement."
"It is not completely mature and needs some features and functions. The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"The solution is stable, but it is quite slow. Maybe my data is too large, but I think that Google could improve Vertex AI's training time."
"It takes a considerable amount of time to process, and I understand the technology behind why it takes this long, but this is something that could be reduced."
"I think the technical documentation is not readily available in the tool."
"Since we've been with them, they've changed their licensing structure. It would be nice to have one set structure where they're not changing the structure on us because we were set with what we had, but now we are changing. I understand there's a lot of changes and reasons for it."
"UiPath's OCR features could be improved. It's to do complex OCR captures with UiPath. I would also like improvements in the dashboard for executing processes."
"There should be extra ways for humans to interact with automation."
"With Excel applications, it is not able to handle a lot of pop ups. It should be able to do this automatically. We just change the format of the file from XLSX to XLS, but it should be able to handle this automatically. Instead, when something pops up, it gets stuck there. This type of thing are small, but still the process gets stuck. I would like to see better integration of applications to avoid these issues."
"More videos are required. There are basic videos that can help you learn about the product, however, there need to be more in-depth videos to help you through certain tasks."
"The Orchestrator is in drastic need of improvement. Three or four years ago, the Orchestrator UI was very simple and comfortable to use but now, they have added so many features that it is difficult for new users to quickly understand it."
"To improve, I notice a concern regarding support. For instance, if a vendor encounters an issue with UiPath Platform and is unable to resolve it via UiPath Platform developers or architects, they may raise a support ticket, but there can be delays in response."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think almost every tool offers a decent discount. In terms of credits or other stuff, every cloud provider provides a good number of incentives to onboard new clients."
"The solution's pricing is moderate."
"The price structure is very clear"
"The Versa AI offers attractive pricing. With this pricing structure, I can leverage various opportunities to bring value to my business. It's a positive aspect worth considering."
"The solution has gotten pricier."
"Even though our clients may have an Automation Anywhere ecosystem, they choose UiPath due to budget and cost. Apart from cost, both platforms offer almost all the features."
"I'd advise others to consider sharing the costs after ensuring they understand their expectations for utilizing the capacity of the robots."
"We just signed a very large perpetual agreement. So, we had 125 Studios and 1200 unattended licenses. We paid $3.7 million. Then, we paid maintenance costs for the next three years, which was 15 percent of that."
"The cost of UiPath is higher in Africa than in Europe and Asia due to differences in salary levels."
"I do not know the specifics within my role, but from what I do know, everything has been very fair. Especially with the licensing that we have for our team, we have been able to accommodate everybody on our team with the roles and access that they require. So far, so good."
"The licensing fees for this solution are approximately $100,000 USD annually."
"There is no additional cost apart from the standard licensing. There is a one-time cost for the infrastructure setup."
