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 find the ease of use from a programming perspective very valuable."

"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."

"Fortra's Automate has effectively replaced the workload of an entire employee, saving us significant time and money."

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

"The pricing is excellent. I would give them perfect marks in that regard."

"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."

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

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."

"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."

"My favorite feature is Document Understanding. I haven't used most of the new features, such as AI-enhanced document processing and process mining. The document understanding feature is especially valuable because I can use it to extract and process invoice data efficiently. It enables the quick and accurate handling of structured and unstructured data."

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

"UiPath Studio is the feature we use the most to build our automations, and Orchestrator enables us to stitch it all together and monitor bots."

"I appreciate UiPath's ability to automate complex processes. It's the best thing. The Action Center, Document Understanding, AI Center, and all the other components of UI Path are also good. I prefer UiPath over other automation tools."

"It's helped us minimize our on-premises footprint."

"UiPath is a strong brand."

"UiPath has reduced human error and saved employee time."

More UiPath Platform pros

Cons

"The documentation is not that great."

"I would prefer not having to log in to update a ticket; being able to respond via email would be beneficial."

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

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

"There is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."

"Some companies have asked for voice integration. This is likely part of the roadmap."

"The solution has a very weak knowledge base."

"I would like to see some better web automation, a wizard like the one in the product WinAutomation would be very nice."

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."

"Between version 19 and version 20, the orchestrator tool interface has changed a lot. It totally changed. The menu changed, the place of the button changed. It took me a week to understand and to make myself used to this new interface."

"The company needs to continue to develop artifical intelligence capabilities."

"The OCR is the only area where I expect a little flexibility and improvement."

"There's room for enhancement, particularly in the support department and in the area of reporting, to provide a more robust product for gathering insights."

"They can improve integration with other types of systems by giving us more connectors. That would mean UiPath would work natively with more applications. With that done, they will have built a fantastic solution."

"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."

"UiPath needs to improve its integration with Microsoft products such as Office, SharePoint, and PowerPoint."

"What happens when a selector breaks? That means that something has changed in the application... UiPath could do a better job of enveloping selectors to make them less fragile... That is the one area that is the biggest pain point. It happens all the time... They should reduce selector sensitivity and improve remediation when one does break."

More UiPath Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"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."

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

"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."

"I'm only involved in running the product and maintaining the systems, so I can't speak to the cost."

"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."

"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."

"The cost of UiPath is higher in Africa than in Europe and Asia due to differences in salary levels."

"The price of both UiPath and Automation Anywhere is high. The basic package is included in the price, but in case you require any professional or golden package, you have to pay a higher price."

"The pricing is transparent, and the best part is that they have the Community version, so there isn't anything to hide. You can try the cloud version. They offer plenty of time, two months, for a trial."

"The pricing differs on the requirements. If there is a huge purchase, then we get a discount. There is not a fixed pricing of the product."

"The product is very affordable, not costly at all."

"We would like to see improvement on the ROI, as we need to free up resources. Too many man-hours are being spent on trivial tasks which could be automated."

"No matter how much you complain about the price of a SaaS product, it's still cheaper than building your own data center and other infrastructure. That's my perspective as someone who works for a company that does digital transformation. The price is cheaper than building and deploying your own solutions."

"The solution isn't very expensive."
