A powerful solution for custom scripting but .NET knowledge is required
Knowledge of .NET is required to effectively use the solution or it can be complicated. I was able to train customers to use the solution if they had some .NET experience. The solution should offer a lightweight version that includes the OCR or document scanning and does not include the entire enterprise package with custom scripting.
Gangadhar Wali - PeerSpot reviewer
Pre-trained models work well, but it is very expensive
We have to do manual validation for some of the things due to the OCR engine not being so accurate. For example, S is read as 5, 5 as S, 2 as Z, and Z as 2. In the case of currency, if one dot is missing, it gives a completely incorrect number. These discrepancies should be fixed because if the OCR itself doesn't work properly, then AI doesn't help with that. When AI is used for training models, the AI Center works precisely, but if the data itself is wrong, we can't do anything. If the extraction of data is proper, it definitely helps. However, 20% errors could be reduced if the OCR engine were better. In future updates, I would like to see better handling of issues such as when a dot is missing in currency, for example, with dollars, it should handle that automatically. It's very expensive. If the volume increases, we can't afford to use Document Understanding. We are thinking of moving to another solution because we are expecting 80,000 to 100,000 invoices.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The automated version of the vendor invoice management is great."
"The enterprise and capturing feature of OpenText is its valuable feature. As we have integrated CRM with OpenText."
"The solution is very powerful because it allows for custom scripting."
"It allows you to image capture, scan documents and use machine learning to automatically index and tie them."
"Being able to have accurate extraction is most valuable. It has machine learning and other tools to make the extraction more accurate."
"We use it to capture documents coming through our product and mobile channels and make them available for our business to access and email. We use it to automate the email workflow in our applications, pull the documents, and email them to the users."
"UiPath's Document Understanding significantly reduces the effort needed to train a machine-learning model for our documents."
"I like the clear and organized way in which UiPath has structured the labeling process, as well as the user-friendly development environment."
"The most valuable aspects of UiPath Document Understanding are its accuracy, ability to automate processes end-to-end, and the availability of a free trial period to conduct a proof of concept and assess its accuracy and speed."
"The most valuable feature in UiPath Document Understanding is the identification of the fields column in the PDF documents."
"OCR technology is undoubtedly the most valuable feature and the feasibility of integrating data processes with AI and machine learning models is fascinating."
"UiPath Document Understanding has helped to free up staff's time for other projects, but the cost is high."
"The solution allows us to continue with vendors whose information comes in correctly and to stop the automation for vendors with many items that are not clearly defined."
"UiPath Document Understanding's image file extraction feature is the best in any OCR solution."
 

Cons

"It can be more user-friendly, and it should also have more reporting capabilities. There are also a few other things that need improvement."
"The area for improvement primarily centers around licensing concerns rather than technical issues. Captiva, intended for larger clients, poses challenges for medium and small businesses due to licensing costs. The current licensing model is based on volume, such as purchasing a volume for one million dollars per year for scanning. This pricing structure may be prohibitive for companies with constrained budgets. Another aspect requiring attention is the mobile capture feature, which, although experiencing recent enhancements in intelligent document processing through AI, could benefit from further improvements. Specifically, there is room for enhancement in enabling users to efficiently capture documents using their smartphones."
"If something is handwritten and attached to an email, it doesn't capture the information correctly."
"The setup is medium complexity."
"We are using it to improve the image and the documentation for the cases. And sometimes, some cases have more than fifteen different types. We use some tools as fixed standard analysis and provide information to support the different types to take some decisions and help in an automated process. We choose the case type and subtype DNS scanning documents from the data entry up."
"Knowledge of .NET is required to effectively use the solution or it can be complicated."
"I would say what most of the document management solutions are lacking is smartness to detect the duplicate storage of the documents"
"If there were more integrations with Veracode or the AWS server, so we don't have to completely transfer our data and keep data on our servers, that might increase security."
"The licensing model poses a significant challenge due to the fee charged for posting a model, which impedes the development of productivity-enhancing models."
"At times, the scanning functionality of the tool may fail to generate accurate output, resulting in the need for manual input."
"The machine learning model needs improvement, as we receive more and more unstructured documents from clients that require a lot of manual validation."
"There are also problems with handwritten documents. The results from those are not 90 percent accurate. With scanned and native PDFs, it is 90 to 99 percent accurate, but the accuracy of handwritten documents is somewhat less. If they could improve on that, it would also be helpful."
"UiPath could improve its analytics and interface."
"UiPath Document Understanding's ability to read handwritten files has room for improvement."
"The results of classifying patient documents within UiPath Document Understanding need to be more accurate."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"OpenText is an expensive solution."
"Some customers say the solution can get costly because it requires licenses or enterprise packages."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution a nine."
"UiPath Document Understanding is priced high compared to its competition."
"Document Understanding's price is quite high."
"The price for UiPath Document Understanding is a bit expensive."
"I find the pricing to be fair."
"UiPath's pricing model is complex and based on AI units, which are consumed during model training and use."
"I find the pricing to be somewhat on the higher side."
"The last time we implemented UiPath Document Understanding the price was high."
