Can be integrated with multiple apps like Excel and ChatGPT
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature is UiPath's integration with the AI chatbot for automating customer service in our web applications. We directly integrate ChatGPT to talk to the customer because it performs better than our old Python-based chatbot, which was really slow."
  • "Task management is complex and difficult for new users. They should simplify the interface for new users. There are lots of flow charts and automation things in task management, so I would suggest streamlining it."

What is our primary use case?

We are a gaming company using UiPath to automate some development-related tasks. We integrate the API keys provided by UiPath into our app to extract user data that helps us improve our apps and games. We also use the UiPath application-building solution for Android or web app development.

How has it helped my organization?

Implementing UiPath has enhanced our workflow while reducing time spent on manual tasks, such as talking to customers or collecting user data manually. It provides a fast way to communicate with our clients and obtain data, saving a ton of time. We can reduce the number of team members because most things are managed by the AI. 

The AI functionality has been useful for us. UiPath can be integrated with multiple apps like Excel and ChatGPT, so it provides an efficient solution. The AI ability enables us to automate more tasks, and we get feedback on things we should improve. It was previously a manual task to compile all the change requests from our users, but the AI speeds up the process. 

UiPath has reduced the costs of our digital transformation because our project requires a lot of integration with web services. This used to cost us a lot of money because we had to pay for cloud services and domain names, but UiPath's API key allows us to integrate our games and applications directly.

The solution has reduced human error because we've automated some tasks that were formerly performed by team members. The tooling has been standardized, and we update it based on our current projects. The task-mining feature in UiPath enables error-free communication with other users in our application.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is UiPath's integration with the AI chatbot for automating customer service in our web applications. We directly integrate ChatGPT to talk to the customer because it performs better than our old Python-based chatbot, which was really slow. ChatGPT has lots of parameters, so we can communicate efficiently with our clients. It's easy to build automations in UiPath using the no-code drag-and-drop interface. 

What needs improvement?

Task management is complex and difficult for new users. They should simplify the interface for new users. There are lots of flow charts and automation things in task management, so I would suggest streamlining it.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used UiPath for four months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

UiPath has been stable in the past four or five months that I've been using it. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I consider UiPath highly scalable. They're constantly adding features, and it's always great to see a solution that stays up to date. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate UiPath support eight out of 10. We contacted them a few times because we discovered some bugs while implementing our web applications. Their support team was helpful and fast. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used TXT. Me for our chatbot use cases, but now we use ChatGPT integrated with UiPath. 

How was the initial setup?

UiPath's initial setup is straightforward and can be completed with a few clicks. Anyone can do it. We did it all in-house. It is easy to deploy everything in the UiPath solution. It only required two teammates to deploy. The UiPath solution doesn't require any kind of maintenance on our side, but we need to update our bots and apps when new features come out. 

What was our ROI?

UiPath has enabled us to reduce the size of our team, saving us some money. The integration is easy. We are also seeing more positive reviews from our users, and our web application is running faster.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

UiPath is a little expensive compared to other solutions I've seen on the market, but you can try it for free for 60 days. It may be too pricey for startups and small businesses, but it will ultimately save your company money, so it's a worthwhile investment.   

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We looked around but couldn't find a competing product that offers so many features in one app.

What other advice do I have?

I rate UiPath nine out of 10. The solution provides a lot of value by offering features that competing solutions don't have. It has the latest features like ChatGPT integration and broad app support. 

The UI path is somewhat complex, so you should watch their videos. Their own website has tutorial videos that can teach you about the features. There are short videos and also webinars you can attend that explain the latest features to new users. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Public Cloud

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Makes us more efficient and has saved us a lot of money in just six months
Pros and Cons
  • "UiPath has saved us costs. In the six months of running it, it has saved us something like one and a half million."
  • "We would like to use several modules of UiPath, but they are very costly. All the additional features that we need are there, but they are in the modules that we have not bought."

What is our primary use case?

Our primary use case is for RPA. We use it for checking invoices and sending out electronic letters. It is also going to check the absence entered by people when they are sick and see if those fill-outs are correct.

How has it helped my organization?

UiPath enables us to implement end-to-end automation. It is very important. It makes us more efficient. It does not require that much labor.

We find UiPath quite good in terms of ease of building automations. It does not require an enormous amount of knowledge. It is quite easy to use, but we need to do some scripting and programming in addition to the software.

We use UiPath's AI functionality in our automation program. It is necessary to interpret PDFs. We only use it in one process so far. It has only been six months, so it hasn't enabled us to automate more processes overall.

UiPath speeds up digital transformation and reduces the cost of digital transformation. This digital transformation does not require expensive or complex application upgrades or IT application support.

UiPath has reduced human error. In the use case for checking the invoices, it helps us to handle an invoice more correctly and send the invoice to the correct person internally so that it does not go in a loop somewhere.

UiPath has freed up employee time. By the end of this year, it would have saved us two whole man-years.

UiPath has saved us costs. In the six months of running it, it has saved us something like one and a half million.

What is most valuable?

The software does what it is supposed to do. I do not have any specific features that are valuable. We mainly use it for automation. We use the standard application screens. It meets our requirements.

What needs improvement?

We would like to use several modules of UiPath, but they are very costly. All the additional features that we need are there, but they are in the modules that we have not bought.

Its stability could have been better. 

For how long have I used the solution?

It was installed around September of last year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability could have been better. We started out with one developer license and then we had another developer license. When both developers are working in the cloud platform, it shuts down. I am not sure if it is solved yet.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I do not know about the scalability yet. I hope it is scalable.

How are customer service and support?

We have not used their technical support. We used the UiPath community for some issues. We were trying to learn how to program, and we were stuck and trying to figure out how to do certain things. We posted a couple of questions to the community. There are always people there who are willing to help and come up with good ideas to solve the problems that you have been stuck with.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We did not use any solution previously.

How was the initial setup?

It is in the cloud. Our cloud provider is Digital Workforce.

The deployment took four months. It was straightforward. There were no issues. The integration between the cloud platform and our internal networks with the firewalls was really smooth.

It does not require any maintenance from our side.

What about the implementation team?

It was Digital Workforce that showed us that this is how we would want to do it. We based everything on their strategy.

What was our ROI?

With the rate at which we are going with automations, it should take us a year and a half or two years.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

UiPath has several modules that we would like to use. They will enhance our installation, but they are very costly. 

What other advice do I have?

We are quite happy with the solution as it is. If I were to go for UiPath again, I would not choose Digital Workforce as a supplier.

I do not have any experience with any other solution, but we have had some glitches, so I would rate UiPath an eight out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Helped us realize cost savings by eliminating multiple FTEs
Pros and Cons
  • "I like the UiPath Orchestrator. The Marketplace is also helpful because there are pre-built automations we can use."
  • "I rate UiPath support six out of 10. It's primarily an email-based model. Sometimes we have questions, and it takes days for them to respond and sort our issue out."

What is our primary use case?

I work at a large retailer and we use UiPath to support the HR and e-commerce departments. For example, we can automate the management of HR tasks, such as scheduling training courses for associates. We have around 500 bots running in production.

How has it helped my organization?

UiPath helped us realize some cost savings by eliminating several FTEs. 
UiPath freed up our employees to work on other things. Instead of doing repetitive tasks, they can learn new skills or work on more exciting jobs. When we automate, we don't lay off employees. They're shifted to other projects once a robot takes over their process.

I set up the entire automation team in 2017. The UiPath Academy courses have been useful for training our staff. I have completed almost all of the certifications.

It's challenging if you don't have knowledge bases or community forums. When UiPath first launched, we had to Google everything, and it was hard to find accurate information. UiPath Academy has enabled me to grow professionally. I started as a developer and later became a technical lead. Now I'm in an architect role. 

A robust user community is essential for any solution. The community updates us about new features in the latest release notes. We can ask the community about how to deal with common problems and always get a quick response. Users can create custom solutions and upload them to the marketplace. 

What is most valuable?

I like the UiPath Orchestrator. The Marketplace is also helpful because there are pre-built automations we can use. One of our processes is used to manage annual charitable donations.

We use UiPath for end-to-end automation but only for about half of our processes. We've also integrated the solution with other tools. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used UiPath for eight years. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate UiPath support six out of 10. It's primarily an email-based model. Sometimes we have questions, and it takes days for them to respond and sort our issue out. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

My firm uses two or three tools, but most of our bots in production use UiPath. 

How was the initial setup?

I was present for the initial deployment, and I have been involved with the upgrades. Everything went smoothly. 

What about the implementation team?

We relied on the UiPath team during the initial phases, but we've developed in-house expertise since then. I did the last upgrade for the UiPath Studio, Orchestrator, etc.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The licensing model could be improved. UiPath charges more if you increase the number of components. It should be included within the premium licensing. We have 100 percent end-to-end automation for some of our processes. However, we're limited by the licensing from fully automating all of them. We can't use all the features. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate UiPath eight out of 10. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Enables us to pull patient information into a single dashboard with the help of a Power BI integration service
Pros and Cons
  • "I like the ability to extract emails and other data from scanned documents. The machine learning and AI features are helpful because we're processing tons of documents and warehousing the data. UiPath's Document Understanding makes that much easier."
  • "Document processing could be improved. It's challenging to build document automations. It would be helpful if UiPath provided some templates and prebuilt models. Citrix automation could be improved. It's static automation, and we cannot fully automate processes involving Citrix. Some elements aren't supported."

What is our primary use case?

We're using UiPath for healthcare use cases. It is primarily used for automating document-related tasks, such as moving documents around, classifying them, and extracting the information we need. 

How has it helped my organization?

UiPath has increased our accuracy to 99.99 percent and expanded our ability to process large volumes of data, making data processing more affordable and improving our profitability. It has helped reduce personnel time and enhanced productivity because we can run the bots 24 hours daily.

We can automatically scan documents and send the information through Twilio. Document scanning is tricky, but we can easily collect the data after finishing the process. The integration is smooth. 

The solution helps us share data between systems, which speeds things up. Previously, we were doing everything manually. Now, we can automate data tasks in Informatics with UiPath. 

UiPath enables us to pull patient information into a single dashboard with the help of a Power BI integration service. Power BI is our dashboard solution, and we integrate it via API. It's much easier to monitor the patients because we can see how many records were successfully processed and prepared. It's secure enough to comply with HIPAA because we can collect patient data and encrypt it. Automated scheduling helps the healthcare staff, particularly the doctors. 

What is most valuable?

I like the ability to extract emails and other data from scanned documents. The machine learning and AI features are helpful because we're processing tons of documents and warehousing the data. UiPath's Document Understanding makes that much easier. 

What needs improvement?

Document processing could be improved. It's challenging to build document automations. It would be helpful if UiPath provided some templates and prebuilt models. Citrix automation could be improved. It's static automation, and we cannot fully automate processes involving Citrix. Some elements aren't supported. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used UiPath for around four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

UiPath is generally stable, but the stability goes down when we do Citrix automation.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

UiPath is scalable enough. We are using more than 20 licenses. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate UiPath support 10 out of 10. I'm satisfied. When we raise a ticket, we get a response in a day or two. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

UiPath Studio is available in community and enterprise versions, but the UI doesn't work correctly in the community edition, so it's difficult to achieve 100 percent automation. I'm not responsible for the licensing, so I don't know how much it costs. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate UiPath 10 out of 10. I recommend UiPath because it's better than other automation tools like Blue Prism. It's easy to use and has a large user community that you can rely on for support.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Provides us with a single solution provider for end-to-end automations
Pros and Cons
  • "Among the key features that I find quite helpful are Orchestrator support, Automation Hub, Process Mining, and Document Understanding..."
  • "On the Orchestrator side, I would like to see more controls and conditions for RPA managers. If they advanced in those areas, it would help."

What is our primary use case?

The business side of our company has different processes and they send us requests to develop automation for them.

How has it helped my organization?

Almost all of our processes are end-to-end automations. Our company looks for a single solution provider and the minimum number of tools needed to automate a whole process. We don't want to jump between different systems where the owners have to get more approvals to get the automation done. It's better to have one simple solution that can work on different scenarios.

Another benefit is, obviously, that processes that don't require human intervention can comply with security requirements and then you can host it on a VM. You then schedule the automation and it will run. It's really good compared to competitors, like Automation Anywhere, which have not yet reached that level.

UiPath also speeds up digital transformation in many ways. People start thinking about automation and the processes from start to end. For example, if there are four steps in a process and one team member is responsible for the third step, by turning the process into an automation, he knows the whole process from start to end.

In addition, it helps reduce human error, especially for repetitive processes done with human effort, but that is true of any automation, not just UiPath. But I do think UiPath is the best solution. UiPath has sped up processes for many of our teams, and they are much happier. They can explore other areas in which they are more interested. Personally, UiPath automation has saved me at least three hours a day.

What is most valuable?

The key features that I find quite helpful include

  • Orchestrator support
  • Automation Hub 
  • Process Mining
  • Document Understanding
  • Test Manager
  • Insights.

What needs improvement?

On the Orchestrator side, I would like to see more controls and conditions for RPA managers. If they advanced in those areas, it would help.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using UiPath for two and a half years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It's stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have over 100 users in our company.

We have UiPath on-premises so we usually upgrade the platform whenever they release a stable version. There is some work involved with UiPath web extensions, which we have to install on web browsers.

How are customer service and support?

We usually talk with our account manager. UiPath's technical support team is good. They are always approachable.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I did not work in RPA before I started using UiPath.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

UiPath is costly compared to Power Automate Desktop, but if you want to do most things, UiPath helps a lot. The more you use it, the cheaper it gets.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

UiPath is the industry leader in RPA. Other tools, such as Automation Anywhere and the Power Automate platform, are notably lacking in most of the features.

What other advice do I have?

There is a big learning curve if someone is new to programming. It would be better to have gone through some basic data types or to have an understanding of how logical sequences work. But apart from that, it is easy to build automations. Once you understand how to use logic, it's easy. 

In our company, people are still adapting. It's not 100 percent done. We are asking many teams to start learning UiPath and automating simple things first.

There is a desktop studio and any citizen developer can develop an automation without learning much. It's quite simple to use. When you want to share something with other team members, you just publish it to Orchestrator and share it with UiPath Assistant. That is quite helpful for any team looking for automation.

The UiPath Academy has different certifications and, on my team, everyone has done some kind of course there and received certification. They know what they're doing and understand how RPA works.

I would suggest developing a basic understanding of how to use UiPath Studio, which is the IDE. Try different things and, then, if you're stuck, go to the UiPath forum for help. If it requires more detailed knowledge, then go with a video course in the UiPath Academy. But most of the time, we Google an issue and find answers on the UiPath forum or documentation. Sometimes a YouTube video will help. It's not necessary to go through the video learning process in the Academy to start using automation.

It doesn't require much coding, and we can do much of what we need with the basic features
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable aspect of UiPath is that it doesn't require much coding."
  • "The user interface could be better. There have been advancements in UI design and user experience in recent years. UiPath could do a better job of keeping up with these trends."

What is our primary use case?

We use UiPath to automate the processing of large volumes of data. The company has multiple sites, but the organization's data warehouse is at one location. Around 80 people use the solution. 

How has it helped my organization?

UiPath enabled the company to reduce staff. We can now perform more work with fewer people. We decreased our manual work by around 60 to 70 percent. UiPath freed up personnel to do other tasks. We still have people doing about 30 percent of the data work, but we hope to increase that to 100 percent. We've cut costs by about 40 to 50 percent.  

We are launching new products using existing UiPath workflows built for our older core projects. When we get new requirements from the client, we can easily implement them. UiPath has expanded our capacity to take on new clients. 

What is most valuable?

The most valuable aspect of UiPath is that it doesn't require much coding. We can do most of what we need using the basic functionality. We can implement the code with drag and drop and basic modular programming.

What needs improvement?

The user interface could be better. There have been advancements in UI design and user experience in recent years. UiPath could do a better job of keeping up with these trends.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used UiPath for about five or six months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

UiPath is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

UiPath is scalable because we can reuse our workflows. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate UiPath support an eight out of ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We used Microsoft Power Automate for one or two months. UiPath has more capabilities, and we can do more with it. 

How was the initial setup?

Setting up UiPath is straightforward and requires some maintenance. The deployment team does that.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

We're getting more clients using UiPath, so the price we pay isn't an issue. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate UiPath a nine out of ten. I would recommend it to my clients and colleagues. It doesn't require much coding knowledge to use. It's also much cheaper than paying human employees to do the same work, and bots are less prone to errors.

We have been able to completely automate our data transfer process, reducing errors and increasing efficiency
Pros and Cons
  • "I'm from a non-technical background, so for me, it's very easy to just drag and drop the fields using the Studio functionality and place them in my workflow module... The option in Studio of the drag-and-drop functionality makes it very easy to design certain applications."
  • "They could provide much more premium, quicker customer service. I'm from India and the customer support team is elsewhere. There's a time difference and, whenever I post a query or ask them for help, the response is delayed."

What is our primary use case?

My major use case with UiPath is to create automation applications that reduce manual work. At the same time, we use it to record and update our processes. 

How has it helped my organization?

UiPath has helped us elevate our automation process and reduce silos in our businesses. We have been able to deliver better results by using UiPath.

UiPath has improved efficiency with its end-to-end automation process. For example, we do data transfer using UiPath automation. Right from the insertion of data to the transfer of data to the end-user, everything is completely automated now. It's very apt as end-to-end automation software. End-to-end automation is very important because there is no manual intervention needed, once it has been set up. A lot of time and a lot of effort has been saved because of end-to-end automation.

Because no manual intervention is needed, 80 percent of our time, overall, is being saved right now. For example, tasks that required around 10 employees to do only require two employees. The remaining eight employees can focus on something else, to improve sales or our product feature list, et cetera. And invariably, overhead costs and employee costs have been drastically reduced with UiPath.

We are using the cloud version of UiPath, and it has definitely helped us to reduce our on-premises footprint. There is absolutely no on-premises maintenance because everything is on the cloud for us. Server updates and the like happen on the cloud. Currently, we just have a couple of systems on-premises for manual work, but apart from that, our on-premises footprint is almost zero.

Another benefit is that UiPath has reduced the cost of digital transformation because it's complete, end-to-end automation software on the cloud. Everything is digital for us now. There is no paperwork or manual intervention needed. Employees who work remotely can get easily connected and download and process data, as well, with UiPath. This digital transformation didn't require expensive or complex application upgrades or IT application support. UiPath is very straightforward software. It's one of the easiest-to-understand RPA platforms. So we have not used any third-party applications or anything else to do our tasks.

We deal with a lot of data and UiPath has definitely reduced human error. Previously, while transferring data, data loss would happen here and there, and that consumed a lot of time. But since the end-to-end automation with UiPath, there are zero errors. It's very useful and has greatly improved our efficiency. We have seen about a 25 percent improvement in overall efficiency since we started using UiPath. It has saved us three hours per day out of an eight-hour workday.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features for me are the Automation Hub and Studio. I engage with the Studio functionality in UiPath, as that is where most of the design happens. I'm from a non-technical background, so for me, it's very easy to just drag and drop the fields using the Studio functionality and place them in my workflow module. That is my favorite aspect of UiPath.

The option in Studio of the drag-and-drop functionality makes it very easy to design certain applications. One project that I have been working on is building security automation for our organization. For example, if anybody plugs malicious devices into a laptop or our system, a notification pops up. And if somebody logs in to our system from a different account, a notification pops up. It has been very straightforward to do that. It's not rocket science. Just drag and drop and proceed from there.

Also, the user community is fantastic. I just post whatever queries I have on the user community and I get a lot of responses immediately. That has been very helpful for me. It's one of the premium communities out there for any software. I'm enjoying the user community.

What needs improvement?

In terms of the product, I don't have any complaints. Here and there, small server downtime happens, but that is expected with any cloud-based software.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using UiPath for about a year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Being cloud software, it's stable. They just need to make sure that it's up to date.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Initially, we started out with 15 users and now we have 25. In that way, it's scalable, but any automation software is scalable.

How are customer service and support?

They could provide much more premium, quicker customer service. I'm from India and the customer support team is elsewhere. There's a time difference and, whenever I post a query or ask them for help, the response is delayed. That is one way they could improve.

In terms of their product knowledge and quality, I'd rate their technical support very highly, but it's their response where they could be much more efficient.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Before this, we were actually trying to develop an in-house application ourselves, but things didn't pan out for us. That's why we switched to UiPath. We didn't use any other software.

How was the initial setup?

I was partially involved in the initial setup. I wouldn't say it was complex; it was a smooth process for us. It took around 25 days for us to get it up and running in our organization. We expected the process to go on for two months at least, but that didn't happen. It was quicker.

A couple of our guys, along with two employees from the UiPath team, worked together on the implementation. They gave us initial training on how to go about things.

We are a very small startup company. We have three teams in our organization and the platform is deployed across all three teams.

What was our ROI?

UiPath has resulted in a greater return on investment in terms of profits. We have seen a 20 percent increase in our overall revenue for the last financial year. We have seen a good return on investment from UiPath.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

For the features and the quality of features that they provide, it's a very reasonably priced product.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We didn't evaluate any other options before going with UiPath because we knew it was one of the market leaders. It was just a matter of whether it fit our budget or not. Luckily, it fit our budget, so we purchased it.

What other advice do I have?

The biggest lesson I've learned from using UiPath so far is that, in the current digital age, automation is everything. Automation is going to be the future. I would definitely urge others to start using at least the Community Edition of UiPath. That is the free edition. Try using that edition first, to get a handle on things, before going for the paid edition.

It can potentially cut the work of some tech employees in half
Pros and Cons
  • "I like the user interface. I'm using Cloud Orchestrator and UiPath X. It's a platform for customizing and building automated processes."
  • "Some features are limited for Orchestrator. For example, the AI features could be more flexible and easily accessible. Every time I want to use some new features, we have to do a deep dive into this technology."

What is our primary use case?

I've used UiPath in multiple industries, including medical, banking, retail, etc. It's a good platform for RPA.

How has it helped my organization?

UiPath saves employee time while increasing productivity. It can potentially cut the work of some tech employees in half. I don't have precise numbers, but it also cuts the cost of each process by about 50 percent. UiPath has helped our customers minimize their on-premises footprint, which is essential. UiPath facilitated my clients' digital transformation without expensive or complex upgrades or additional IT application support. It also helped reduce human error. 

The UiPath Academy helped me learn how to develop processes. The main benefit was learning how to build robots and handle various exception cases, like business and application exceptions. 

What is most valuable?

I like the user interface. I'm using Cloud Orchestrator and UiPath X. It's a platform for customizing and building automated processes. UiPath is the easiest RPA platform to use. It's more accessible than other RPA platforms like Automation Anywhere, Microsoft Power Automate, and Blue Prism. Almost all of the processes are end-to-end.

The UiPath community is a valuable resource. I use the forum almost daily to ask various questions. I get most of my answers from the forum and the Discord server. It's a massive community.

What needs improvement?

Some features are limited for Orchestrator. For example, the AI features could be more flexible and easily accessible. Every time I want to use some new features, we have to do a deep dive into this technology.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used UiPath for more than three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

In the past three years, UiPath has been highly stable even though the environment has changed frequently.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

UiPath is easy to scale. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate UiPath's support a 10 out of 10. They helped me resolve a problem with mobile automation quickly.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

UiPath is the best platform for me, but Automation Anywhere is the second-easiest platform for deployment. 

How was the initial setup?

UiPath is easy to set up. It requires some maintenance after deployment, but one person is enough to handle it. It depends on the complexity and the number of processes. Complex cases may require two or more. 

What was our ROI?

Customers see an ROI from UiPath in about six months. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate UiPath a 10 out of 10. I recommend UiPath. It's an excellent way to get started with RPA.
