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."

"I actually quite liked the no-coding functionality."

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

"This tool has machine learning and voice recognition and computer vision, which are both quite useful aspects. These aren't available in other tools. It's a good addition to this tool and it gives the solution an edge on the market."

"The interface is simple, user-friendly, and very intuitive."

"I like the interface; it makes managing automation easy. We can set different schedules and templates for each task."

"The most valuable features of Fortra's Automate include its FTP functionality and file manipulation capabilities."

"This product is quite easy to install, learn, and use, with our new employees being able to start using it in projects for clients after only two weeks of internal training."

More Automate pros

"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."

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

"Within UiPath Cloud itself, UiPath Insights has been excellent. Insights is one of the newer features we were excited about because we built custom reports, captured all that data in one place, and leveraged it in different areas. That was a challenge for us and created a support burden. We're automation developers, not report developers. When leadership wanted a new metric or anything, figuring it out was always a pain."

"The low to no-code is by far the most valuable feature."

"The best feature, for sure, is the ease of development. It's very easy to create an automation from scratch... UiPath has a more friendly development environment compared to other vendors of RPA."

"UiPath saves costs for our customers’ organizations. That would just be the cost savings from RPA bots. I haven't really dug into the cost savings of the ancillary products, however. I know that one of my clients is using the test suite now after I had built a proof of concept for it, and they've fully implemented it. I'm sure there's going to be a lot of cost savings there as well."

"We are seeing many hours saved with respect to automation. Automation should be on every project's agenda."

"The scalability is huge."

"Is it easy to build automation using UiPath in comparison, to, for example, Blue Prism or Power Automate."

"UiPath Orchestrator is a valuable feature for us. We started with all attended bots without Orchestrator, on-premises or on the cloud. It was almost like a very low-cost way to prove that we needed this technology and that we could use it. So, for our first year we did that. For the second year, we got Orchestrator, and it has given us the ability to utilize the bots more effectively. I thought we were going to have more attended bots, and we didn't because the process owners wanted things to happen in the background and wanted to be able to schedule them. Being able to do that and not have to have someone worry about triggering the bot or babysitting the computer while the bot runs, etc. has been the biggest gamechanger for us."

More UiPath Platform pros

Cons

"The technical support could be better. We suffer from language barriers, as we are in Argentina."

"The intelligent automation feature could be improved. It's interesting because it's simple, but the automation quality isn't always good. It's easy to use, but sometimes you need to make a slight improvement to the automation, and that's not so easy."

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

"Fortra's Automate is not as reliable as I would like it to be."

"The product also has a limited use case in some respects."

"I would like the updates to be easier to deploy. Integration with Amazon S3 is somewhat lacking."

"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."

"They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance."

More Automate cons

"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."

"The OCR has issues recognizing handwritten data."

"When someone starts an automation, there should be some notification window on the screen to provide information about the flow's status and progress."

"One feature I think it needs - from a documentation perspective - is the ability to easily extract variable details and data... Sometimes it's difficult to extract those, and if you're not tracking them while you build, you can quickly get into 200 to 300 variables in use, especially using the RE Framework where you're passing workflow arguments in and out. I would like to see something like that."

"There's some latency when changing from one page to another, so that could be improved."

"While the UiPath Academy is simple and you get a decent understanding of what's there, you still have to dedicate on an awful lot of time doing the automations to become proficient at them."

"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."

"There should be a little bit of a longer trial version. I know that their existing trial version is around 30 days. I think it would be very beneficial to make that a 60 day trial for active POCs."

"We have used it with Windows and it has been perfect. But recently, we tried it with Linux and we faced some issues regarding this automation. The auto-recording didn't happen as much as in other operating systems. They need to add more user-friendly automation and templates for that. They don't have many templates for other operating systems."

"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

"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."

"It comes with a package that costs approximately $20,000 USD per year."

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

"From a distributor's perspective, one of the biggest selling points of Automate is its price point."

"I like the way this solution is priced because you can buy a license, or you can buy the software outright."

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

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

More Automate pricing and cost advice

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

"On a scale of one to ten, with ten being the most expensive, I would rate the price an eight out of ten."

"I find the pricing to be reasonable, especially when compared to other offerings in the same market."

"Previously, we were not using automation operations. I believe we have now reduced costs significantly, which justifies the cost we are paying for the service."

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

"There is no additional cost apart from the standard licensing. There is a one-time cost for the infrastructure setup."

"UiPath's cost is a bit high compared to other RPA tools."

"This solution is not cheap but the price is worth it because by following the documentation and using the support, you get good robotic processes that are stable."

"I don't know the exact cost, but UiPath is more expensive than Power Automate and Automation Anywhere."
