Has helped automate repetitive tasks and streamline content summarization across teams
For analytics, I prefer using the Power BI platform instead of Microsoft Copilot Studio. When it comes to analytics, though it gives the right insight, the visuals are not of great quality, or sometimes they don't appear at all. For instance, when creating charts of sales on a quarter-on-quarter basis or month-on-month basis in a bar graph or pie chart, Microsoft Copilot Studio doesn't perform adequately. Anything requiring image creation or graphs and plots is not optimal. The graphing features are missing in Microsoft Copilot Studio. Although image creation is available, it lags at times, similar to any other LLM module. When creating content based on graphs or CIO presentations, these features are not developed to a great extent.

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 integration part in Microsoft Copilot Studio is something I really appreciate because it's very easy to integrate with anything, and the main reason we chose this Studio is its simplicity in developing and building workflows and interconnecting things, especially when it comes to public cloud; life is quite easy."
"We have achieved approximately 60 to 70% productivity gain using Microsoft Copilot Studio."
"Microsoft Copilot Studio has helped enhance my development process quite a lot."
"Starting with Microsoft Copilot Studio for product projects, especially for POC and MVP, accelerates the creation and demonstration to clients, helping them interact with and understand the solution before discussing further improvements."
"The use case involves intelligent code assistance, UI, UX, and integration parts."
"I also appreciate UiPath Apps; while more can be done with UiPath Apps, we've been leveraging that and the Document Understanding part of things."
"The initial deployment using the UiPath Platform was actually easy."
"The collection center functionality seems promising."
"UiPath has taken automation to a pinnacle of excellence by mixing technology, attention to detail, and keen observation."
"It is very easy to develop and deploy. It is easy to work with different applications at the same time. For example, I can read an Excel file and then go to SAP or any other platform. I can then open Outlook and send an email from Outlook. I can even use Teams. Being able to combine all these applications is the main thing that I like."
"And the UiPath user community is the best. The people there are very friendly and helpful, and engage with each other. UiPath has done a good job building a good forum and a good blog, and making the community members interact with each other. The community is one of the reasons UiPath is my choice. It is a strong community."
"UiPath has definitely helped us with productivity, helping us grow without adding or training more people as existing staff can handle the growth while the team no longer has to do manual, repetitive activities and can focus on more value-added work."
"I can also implement end-to-end automation and that means that business owners can hand off these processes and focus on more high-value work. That gives them back hours as well."
 

Cons

"While Microsoft Copilot Studio can create documents and add information, it does not do so accurately, and this is an area that needs improvement."
"I feel that the pricing and licensing methods of Microsoft Copilot Studio are not very conducive."
"For analytics, I prefer using the Power BI platform instead of Microsoft Copilot Studio."
"The price for Microsoft Copilot Studio can definitely be improved, as small organizations find it very difficult to manage the subscription."
"One of the problems with UiPath is that it doesn't interact with some programs, such as AD and Chrome, and it would be great to have even more included!"
"Capturing ROI needs improvement. I would also like for it to have more logging mechanisms in Orchestrator."
"The document understanding has room for improvement. The handwritten documents need to be optimized further on the OCR extraction, making sure that we extract accuracy above 80% because we do see a lot of failure rates when it comes to handwritten documents."
"On any area, an additional feature that must be included is the AI, with the respective documentation and support."
"There should be more growth, but the platform is there. As they grow those things they should take each piece and make it better. If you start with a good platform and you build it up, it's going to get better. What we have today is very usable, and is only going to get better. I look forward to it."
"Definitely, the machine learning engine should be improved so that we can process more invoices and purchase orders in PDF format with ease."
"UiPath support needs to be a bit quicker than it is currently."
"I would say a better layout or interface between the Studio and Orchestrator tools would be nice."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"UiPath is a bit more expensive than other similar solutions, and its price is increasing daily."
"UiPath's cost is a bit high compared to other RPA tools."
"The licensing model could be improved. UiPath charges more if you increase the number of components. It should be included within the premium licensing. We have 100 percent end-to-end automation for some of our processes. However, we're limited by the licensing from fully automating all of them. We can't use all the features."
"I am using the free community version. The enterprise version is obviously a little expensive."
"The Community Edition is free for everyone and you get all the features, but there is a limitation on the number of bots. The Enterprise Edition is a bit costly for the advanced features."
"The UiPath license is expensive."
"The pricing is fair."
"The pricing and licensing are okay. It's quite affordable."
