IT Team Leader -Automation Manager at Citco

Good data security, allowing local installations to prevent data from going to the internet

There were a lot of issues we faced. One notable improvement would be better API integration within the tool itself, as we still rely on external tools like Postman. Additionally, expanding language support beyond C#, Java, and JavaScript to include Python would be beneficial. An AI feature that automatically detects automation object properties and suggests actions would be a great addition. So, in future releases, AI solutions for automated property identification would be helpful.

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

"Object identification is good."

"This is a powerful, reliable and versatile all-around application testing suite."

"I like the recording function and Ranorex Spy."

"Code Conversion is one of the great features because sometimes, the automation tool doesn't have the capability of maneuvering around two specific evaluations."

"The solution is fast and includes built-in libraries that record and playback."

"The most valuable feature of Ranorex Studio is the capture and replay tool. You don't need to do script testing. When you launch any application from Ranorex Studio it automatically captures these test case steps. The next time you can replay the tool the flow automatically happens again. For example, when you do the logging and all the activity will be captured by the tool, and re-execute the same step by using automatization."

"Easy integration with CI Tools like Jenkins, TFS, and TeamCity."

"I'm from a UFT background, so Ranorex Studio has a similar feel in terms of how it handles objects. It just felt familiar even though I'd never seen it before. However, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of UFT, but it's a pretty good start, and it's cost-effective."

More Ranorex Studio pros

"The speed is much better because we're doing it on the cloud. With other solutions there were network problems, but in UiPath I have found that network connectivity is much stronger when transferring data from the back end to the front end. It is much faster."

"UiPath excels at integrating with a wide variety of systems, including on-premises systems, legacy systems, and web pages."

"The solution's AI technology and machine learning models are the biggest contributor to saving time."

"The most valuable feature is its time savings."

"To build automation using UiPath is fairly simple. The studio is quite easy to use. Even now, with the community edition, it’s great."

"It's helped us reduce manual work for our employees and customers."

"UiPath has enabled us to implement end-to-end processes. That's important because we don't want to depend on third-party tools. With UI Path, all the resources are within the application for generating an end-to-end process, so we don't have to struggle to develop such a process."

"AI is a good feature. I am looking forward to that making life easier. It has enabled us to automate more processes. Based on the requirement, chat can hand over the process and we can kick off that bot to do the job. If someone has a problem with a ticket or with a schedule, they can connect to the schedule department or schedule bot."

More UiPath Platform pros

Cons

"For our purposes it requires integration with other products to get out the results in the format we want them. Adding this to the product could improve it."

"The solution does not support dual or regression testing."

"Part of the challenge is that Ranorex's support is over in Europe, so we can't get responses on the same day. If we had support in the United States that was a bit more timely, that would be helpful."

"The automation of the SAP application could perhaps be improved to make it much simpler."

"One of the areas the service could be improved would be to have the training in Italian."

"Ranorex is used in Windows while other solutions, for example, Katalon Studio, are cross-platform. (But in my opinion, overall, Ranorex is better)."

"We are mainly working for manufacturing OEMs but the integration is not available. It would be a benefit if they built one integration tool for all the Teamcenter home servers and software as the main PLM data source. It is a simple process at this time, the integration could be made easier."

"When Ranorex is upgraded, the compatibility with other projects, in version control, in-house or on-premise, fails on occasion. However, overall, the stability is good."

More Ranorex Studio cons

"Their support should be improved in terms of response time."

"I would like to see them integrate with generative AI like ChatGPT."

"Usually, what happens is whenever we talk to a business stakeholder, the first concern is data security. And the moment that you talk about a bot in an unattended fashion going and reading the data source, concerns arise since there's not much control at a certain point."

"It interacts with so many products that the robot itself becomes unstable."

"One of the products where I would definitely see a need for improvement would be a Task Capture."

"Sometimes, the company's processes are very complex, and it's very hard to implement UiPath."

"Licensing needs improvement."

"One way to improve the UiPath Academy, I think, would be to add some real life use cases and take the students through the automation process. These would be good for citizen developers to start with."

More UiPath Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."

"This solution is a more expensive solution compared to some of the other competitors."

"The licensing fees depend on the number of users."

"There are several types of licenses and you need to choose depending on your needs and level of usage."

"Our company has one license per user with each costing two lakh rupees."

"We paid €3,000 (approximately $3,300 USD) for this solution. When you add the runtime licenses it will be €3,500 (approximately $3,900 USD)."

"The price is high in comparison to Power Platform that Microsoft provides as part of their enterprise license."

"The price is a bit high, but UiPath is worth the cost, given its ease of use and features."

"It would be nice if you could just buy the product instead of having the annual rate license renewals. It's expensive, but I guess we'll have to see what the ROI truly is."

"UiPath's cost is acceptable."

"The pricing depends on whether you're running attended or unattended bots. Unattended processes cost a lot more, and you have to pay cloud costs, too. It's costly. The licensing for the tenant dashboard, developer's toolkit, etc. was reasonable, but unattended bots are quite expensive."

"UiPath changed the way that they do licensing, starting in 2022. Any partner that has status with them is now allowed to sell licenses, because UiPath itself does not sell licenses anymore."

"We are using its enterprise version. Its price seems okay, but I'm not sure because I'm not involved with the finance side. I'm more on the development side."

"Our client saw ROI after one month. They realized after we showed them the first process that three people would be free to do other stuff."
