Jane Rachma Kiniti - PeerSpot reviewer
Automate has streamlined workflows and increased efficiency with powerful automation
The best features of the solution are the flexible automation features, it is rich with beautiful connectors, and it is easy to use with little to no coding knowledge required to get started, so anybody can use the tool. The intuitive interface of Automate has an intuitive design, which makes it easy to learn and use even without a strong technical background, and it has a drag-and-drop interface, which makes everything so easy and straightforward. The error handling capabilities in complex automation tasks are powerful, as it handles all types of tasks, whether complex or simple. I've never faced any problems even when dealing with complex tasks, so everything is super smooth and highly reliable, even when dealing with big tasks, as it has never slowed down. Automate's compatibility with existing IT infrastructure has impacted our business operations positively by providing smooth integration with other software that we use, such as Gmail, Jira, and Microsoft 365 apps, which gives us a unified platform instead of having to keep switching from one software to another, saving a lot of time and streamlining the whole workflows. The automated analytics have helped improve our business processes since it has increased our efficiency by automating our everyday tasks, freeing up time for us to focus more on strategic activities such as analyzing data and developing new business strategies. It is also cost-saving. By minimizing manual labor, it decreases human errors that can lead to costly mistakes. By automating the tasks, it helps to save costs, and it also improves our accuracy by reducing these errors to ensure that tasks are done almost perfectly.

Suitable for a small-scale business but not evolved enough for a large enterprise
The best thing with that Jacada is that they are a repository builder, which we use for our assessment to gauge and match screens. Jacada has evolved, but I'm not using the latest version. Technically we use our internal product more, which is iAutomate. We also use UiPath and Automation Anywhere…

Desktop development has become faster and improves automation results
My thoughts on UiPath Platform's user community suggest that a lot of content seems outdated and old now that gets referenced. The community experience for the AI is limited because putting the error codes into the community search field doesn't return many results. However, a lot of information from pre-AI, before 2022, is still accurate and helpful, but the cutting-edge content just isn't in the community yet. There should be better training on UiPath Platform. I wish I could search UiPath IXP training and have a course pull up as the first result without having to dig through a bunch of links, dead-end links, and random things. Easier access for training would be ideal.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."
"I would recommend Automate because it has made my work much easier."
"Fortra's Automate has effectively replaced the workload of an entire employee, saving us significant time and money."
"The ability to connect to websites and pull data is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The automated analytics have helped improve our business processes since it has increased our efficiency by automating our everyday tasks, freeing up time for us to focus more on strategic activities such as analyzing data and developing new business strategies."
"The most valuable features of Fortra's Automate include its FTP functionality and file manipulation capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is the drag-and-drop interface, which is very Windows-like."
"The best feature of Automate is its ease of use, which is a major selling point."
"The initial setup was fairly straightforward."
"Is it easy to build automation using UiPath in comparison, to, for example, Blue Prism or Power Automate."
"For the Orchestrator, I really appreciate the logging function of UiPath Platform."
"UiPath's automation features are all equally valuable, but we use the unattended bots the most."
"It has a really good turnaround time for our operations department to start working on claims, because all the information has already been pulled upfront with the bots. Instead of having to go into an account and request medical records or a certain type of document, it's normally already been pulled on the front-end as soon as the account loads because we run everything through the bots."
"I like Orchestrator and how easy it is to manipulate and get your data, to see what's going on."
"Currently, our group is saving about 1.5 million a year through all of our automations that we've implemented through UiPath Platform."
"The Orchestrator management tools are growing a lot and are constantly improving."
"The ability to recognize screen elements and their robot technology are both very valuable features."
 

Cons

"The solution has a very weak knowledge base."
"They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance."
"Regarding customer support, I face challenges sometimes. They're not always available, and you may need to wait for assistance, but overall their support is acceptable."
"Error messages should be better. For error status, there should be better documentation because a lot of times, error messages that you get are quite vague. For example, you get a message saying that the workflow has run into an unknown status, which is vague. It just tells you that it failed, but you don't know how or why it failed. It makes debugging difficult."
"Some challenges include the system being too loaded or delayed in taking instructions and responding quickly as needed."
"Currently, there are many instances where I see empty logs, indicating that, while tasks are scheduled, commands are not executing successfully."
"I find that most important features are strong, however, there is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."
"The user interface could be slightly enhanced to make it more modern."
"They need to create a workflow system."
"It would help if UiPath fixed bugs in the software before they updated."
"It was more difficult to use than we originally thought it was going to be. It's not as simple as drag and drop."
"There's some latency when changing from one page to another, so that could be improved."
"UiPath needs to incorporate French and Portuguese language-based training. It is not easy for people without an IT background."
"Extending the UiPath studio in terms of UI and functionality would improve this solution."
"UiPath Platform can be improved by working on specific use cases and partnering with us to help bring more belief in the system, and solving the pain points for the industry is critical."
"Assessing an AI center's role in orchestrating various elements of AI capabilities is quite constrained."
"Their licensing is poorly constructed. It's too complicated and not well thought out. They also outsourced their support model, which sadly has become less friendly and more automated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is a bit high for a small business like ours, but we manage with Fortra's Automate."
"While solutions like UiPath and Blue Prism cost around $11,000-$12,000 for each license, this product costs around $7,000 and you can keep it forever."
"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."
"It comes with a package that costs approximately $20,000 USD per year."
"It has gone up in price. The price of Fortra's Automate has increased since we first started using it. It does a lot but also costs a lot. It was a lot more affordable before Fortra owned the software."
"I'm only involved in running the product and maintaining the systems, so I can't speak to the cost."
"The pricing is quite reasonable. We can run the process with one bot. The limitation is at the server level because they have some resources, and sometimes that is enough. It isn't too expensive, so you can get a good return off of one, and you can also have a pack of five bots that is quite competitive."
"I believe the price falls within a reasonable range, which significantly influenced our decision regarding the product. This aspect is crucial for any technological solution, especially in our country where enterprises might be hesitant to invest heavily in something untested or uncertain about its practicality and potential returns."
Information not available
"The community edition is completely free. Then, people say, "There is nothing to lose, let me try it.""
"It is very costly to implement RPA. However, I think the benefits outweigh the costs over a long-term period."
"UiPath is more expensive than Automation Anywhere."
"Because we have so many agents, that's why we went unattended. Attended was very expensive for us because it's a per person license. Where we can take entire workflows, do the triggering and scheduling, etc. We never have to have any human interaction with unattended."
"The price of UiPath is comparatively higher than Selenium. Selenium is a free tool, and UiPath is quite expensive."
"The product is not the cheapest."
"UiPath is perceived as more expensive, but it's pretty close when you break down the licensing model and look at how much competitors charge per connection. We've done the analysis."
"The pricing and licensing are okay. It's quite affordable."
