Anabel Marco

Account Director at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

Automates processes efficiently with cost-effective scaling and robust customer support

Web scraping is quite good since it offers a lot of possibilities. Another important feature for me is its compatibility with MBI, the Power that is ISEQUADO Centers. I appreciate the ability to scale and increase the number of bots or studios without additional expense. Automate's non-reliance on additional orchestrators makes it quite cost-effective.

IT Planning Assistant Manager at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

Frees up employee time but can't run when computer system is locked

Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks. It would be better if, when we have scheduled a scenario, it would log into the system automatically.

Amjed Al-Tayyan

Governance Director at Diyar United Company

Automation streamlines onboarding and reduces the load on customer service agents

As the head of the division, I do not use UiPath myself. However, I am the decision-maker, so I review the features. The combination of both full-attended and half-attended automation, where you can automate tasks and still interact when required, is very useful. It provides efficiency by freeing staff from unnecessary tasks, resulting in a balanced workload and more productive use of an employee's time. The tool has a noticeable ROI, and the investment is worth every penny as it reduces tedious tasks and improves scalability. It is very easy to use. During the COVID lockdown, my son who was 11 at the time attended a UiPath and Automation Anywhere training with me. He has already automated his school tasks requiring saving data and uploading some documents to the portal. If a kid can do this, it shows how easy it is.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I would rate the technical support as a nine out of ten because it is quite fast and courteous."

"A great feature that you seldom see in these kind of systems is the ability to use a database as trigger to launch a task. This is something I asked for a few years ago and that was added."

"We are still in the process of rolling it to production and tweaking it (our AD groups are a mess), but the improvements are priceless. Having users ID's created the same way every time without human error is the best part. We don't need to worry about why groups were not added, user rights not set to folders or missing a private folder being created, typos or just even knowing when things are done and logged."

"The ability to connect to websites and pull data is the solution's most valuable feature."

"Overall, the whole product is really nice and provides significant benefits."

"The solution is continuously adding more integrations to help with workflows and bot and task creation."

"We have found the pricing to be very reasonable."

"We use it for specific cases, mainly secure file transfers, which are vital for us. And it works for us."

More Automate pros

"This software is very smart - it can decide from a picture if we like that condition, and then the robot will do that action."

"The tool's most valuable feature is data import. The OCR feature helps to recognize the data. It can recognize screen and document numbers well."

"It is easy to manage the robotics environment with Orchestrator, including scheduling and reporting."

"It is very easy to use, and you still have a lot of possibilities to modify what you are trying to do and achieve."

"The most valuable aspect of UiPath is the fact that it's a low-code platform. Being able to use a low-code platform really lowers the barrier entry of introducing automation. Normally, you fill in a request to go to IT to get a development resource allocated, and then you spend six months trying to do a project. Because UiPath is a bit of a platform, you can quickly, within weeks, start to knock off automation and get it checked and then successfully deployed. The low-code development environment is key for us."

"You can integrate it to do many things. We have a lot of different data that comes into it."

"I'm not worried about the stability of the product. If others are using it in the cloud with much more complicated processes than we are automating, it's not really a concern of mine."

"I love it for the deep artificial intelligence that it has. It has the AI to recognize the processes, analyze all the workflows through user interactions, and discover automation opportunities. It is very intelligent in these aspects."

"UiPath saves us time and increases productivity for our organization."

"The inbuilt RE Framework makes development easier and fast."

More UiPath Platform pros

Cons

"We really need a free development environment for customers. Building and testing automation on production isn't ideal."

"It would be an improvement if Automate had better stability tools, whether by recommending a certain amount of memory because it can be a memory hog at times."

"The OCR for Hebrew text needs to be improved."

"I currently have three bugs open with them that I don't know if they are addressed in the new release."

"The vendor is currently working on a solution that allows us to automatically create a process that is based on a document that we receive via email."

"It's possible that they could use a stronger community for seeking guidance and help."

"The workflow for variables could be better. The input and output of task-level variables could be made a little clearer in terms of passing those around from one task to another upon success, etc. Things like that could be a little easier potentially."

"The interface could be more user-friendly and easier to navigate."

More Automate cons

"The OCR has issues recognizing handwritten data."

"Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks."

"It would be useful to have co-authoring because we have many staff working on the same project."

"We only use the UiPath Community for support. It would be nice if a team of developers or a support person were available to help us work internally on our project. That would be helpful."

"UiPath fails jobs sometimes and doesn't give you direct instructions on why it failed. A little more insight into failed jobs would be beneficial. It should have more documentation and short training modules."

"If they had more development assistance, it would be helpful."

"There is a very steep learning curve for business users."

"The initial setup was not straightforward. With some of the technical infrastructure that we deployed in 2017, we were an early adopter, so there wasn't a lot of product experience. We made a lot of mistakes with it."

"I would like UiPath to have a build-in method which informs the robot's process owner how it has managed its transactions and performed through the night. If the robot had a process that was set up for a 100 transactions, and two of these transactions had an application error, four had a business error, and the rest were fine, I would like a straight up method for the business owner to login somewhere and see what the robot managed to do and not do. There should be a method for accessing and logging into Orchestrator and see the logs for only one process, and this log should be presented in a way that makes sense for non-technical people."

"The bots do not seem stable and we spend a lot of time fixing things that break."

More UiPath Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."

"The cost is a bit high for a small business like ours, but we manage with Fortra's Automate."

"Compared to other products, the pricing model for this solution is much more convenient, flexible, and adaptable to the Portuguese reality."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"From a distributor's side, one of the biggest selling points is its price point. Without going into any numbers, compared to UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism, we're significantly cheaper. The main difference is that other competitors usually charge you per process. However, in Automate's case, it's priced per bot. So, a bot can run multiple processes at the same time, but you are only priced for a single bot."

"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."

More Automate pricing and cost advice

"We pay yearly for the agent who runs the processes, plus an additional fee for maintenance costs."

"UiPath is a bit more expensive than other similar solutions, and its price is increasing daily."

"UiPath is more cost-effective than any other tool."

"I rate UiPath a five out of ten for affordability. UiPath costs a bit more than other tools like Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere."

"UiPath is affordable compared to Blue Prism or AutomationEdge. A basic license covers the cost of implementation and recurring fees that depend on the complexity of the processes and workflows."

"At the company that I was with previously, we were paying $3,600 USD per bot. With the new company that I am at, because we're new and we don't have the size, we are paying $8,000 USD per bot."

"I would rate the cost of UiPath eight out of ten with ten being the most expensive."

"I would rate the pricing of UiPath eight out of ten with ten being the most expensive."

"UiPath is expensive."
