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 has transformed document processing and frees teams to focus on higher‑value analysis
Sometimes, we encounter system errors that could be resolved via support, but connection issues are more frequent in enterprise applications. However, these can usually be solved by raising tickets if you are part of an enterprise, though we are not, which makes it somewhat challenging. It is vital to ensure the connections of UiPath Platform are maintained because it has a larger community. If UiPath Platform website included more features and documentation accessible easily, it would greatly enhance the experience. Instead of continually needing to raise support tickets, having a documentation hub where details can just be entered to retrieve required documents would be extremely beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cross browser testing and the ability to perform mobile test automation mean you do not need to buy two different solutions for mobile and web channels separately."
"The solutions's regression testing is very important for our company, as is the continuous integration process."
"The solution is intuitive and pretty self-sustaining, and you don't need a lot of help with it in terms of setup or assistance."
"We tried several, and we chose Ranorex for its ability to cover large amounts of testing with minimal coding."
"I like the recording function and Ranorex Spy."
"Ranorex is a great tool to learn automation with pleasure."
"Object identification is good."
"Not only is Ranorex's solution one of the most powerful and easy to use, it has one of the lowest cost entry points resulting in a quicker ROI."
"UiPath Platform has given a very positive impact to my organization, with the success rate for our finance team’s invoice processing rising from 20 to 30% before automation to 90 to 95% after UiPath Platform was implemented for the same process."
"It also does a great job providing tracking and history, and we can leave breadcrumbs with it to see where things left off and stopped."
"UiPath is rich in features, with OCR that is very handy to extract structured and semi-structured data from documents, a rich set of activities, and an open platform that is pretty helpful in creating solutions out of the box."
"There is no coding at all required to implement a complex business process. If you have some programming background, it will help you. However, if you are a business user, you can still develop simple processes."
"We like how UiPath is designed for low-code or no-code users. It's less complicated, enabling everyone to use it with only a basic knowledge of automation or data. Generally, I also like UiPath's ability to mine processes and analyze user interactions to generate analytics."
"From being a new entry in the automation market, it has grown into a very mature product and it has now taken over as the main system that our company is using."
"With this solution, it has a more hands on GUI-based feature."
"We've automated pricing changes for several thousand vendors, saving over 20,000 hours, which has allowed us to avoid hiring temporary associates."
 

Cons

"No real issues, but I had to force close Ranorex Studio a couple of times, as it was stuck with the 'Not Responding' message for a long time on Windows 7."
"The current version of Ranorex Studio IDE is based on an old version of SharpDevelop IDE (3.2), but this is going to change soon (planned update to SharpDevelop 4.x)."
"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."
"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."
"The object detection functionality needs to be improved."
"With the new version of Chrome, some objects are identified differently, so we need to identify those and fix the x-path of the object."
"For a very long time, we were running into crashes with either Ranorex or Ranorex's utility (UIALauncher) which would stop our testing dead in its tracks."
"Any minor change to a repository can result in a version control system nightmare, making it more difficult when working in teams."
"Recently, I faced an outage issue with Cloudflare, resulting in being unable to connect UiPath Platform with UiPath Platform Orchestration, and some of the UiPath Platform Orchestration services were down."
"One of the issues is with the acquisition of new types of software and new companies. It's important to introduce process documentation and make sure that it's not just making it look like UiPath products, but making it feel and act like one to us. They need to make sure it's embedded and the integration is seamless. They should just keep improving how easy it is to use. I think it's very good already, but there's always room for improvement."
"The key reason we are not able to adopt it fully compared to other customers is the security model."
"We would like to know the prerequisites when installing bots."
"Exception handling and exception details can be much better and more user-friendly."
"The messages and alerts that Orchestrator generates are a little overwhelming. I'd like them to be filtered down to the most actionable things I need to look at. For many things, we set up an automation that will send an email summarizing things to the stakeholders for the automation. With any of these types of things, you're generating notices, emails, and things, so you want to focus on some things that need your attention."
"Data integration is the biggest opportunity for improvement. We need quick connections to our complex in-house databases to set up automations more efficiently. It's time-consuming to connect those large databases."
"The company needs to continue to develop artifical intelligence capabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution is a more expensive solution compared to some of the other competitors."
"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 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."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"UiPath is a bit more expensive than other similar solutions, and its price is increasing daily."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The price for the attended bot is between $1,800 and $3,000. The unattended bot was $8,000 last year. Orchestrator is around $20,000."
"I can't speak to the exact price, however, recently I heard in a meeting that one license for Studio Path costs 2,825 Euros per year. This price is approximate and may fluctuate."
"Our license cost is reduced since we don't require any IT support."
"Do your research, the infrastructure piece is important to understand before purchasing."
"There are three leaders in the market: UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism. UiPath is in-between the two. BluePrism is on the higher end when it comes to pricing. Automation Anywhere is on the lower side when it comes to pricing."
"I think the setup cost is quite nominal, but the licensing might be on a higher side when compared to Automation Anywhere."
