What do I think about the stability of the solution?

This is a stable solution.

How are customer service and support?

I have yet to experience any issues that have required support intervention.

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

We have UiPath, Blue Prism, and Automation Anywhere deployed at our facility and UiPath is the easiest to use.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was quite easy and took about an hour for individual computers and one day for the enterprise as a whole.

What was our ROI?

I have seen ROI but do not have specific data.

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

There is an annual subscription. It could be cheaper in my opinion, but it is still more affordable than other OEMs. This solution probably would not be ideal for people in the startup environment.

Tech support is included with the enterprise license.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Stable with s straightforward setup and offers good collaboration capabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "So far, we are just testing it and seeking out use cases, however, so far, it's been an interesting solution to work with."
  • "We may need additional features for processing data."

What is our primary use case?

We primarily use the solution for accountability for a few processes in a financial services company.

Right now, we are in the early stages of using the product. We just want to watch it to see how it works, what use cases we can take from it, and how we can incorporate it into the business.

What is most valuable?

The solution offers good collaboration capabilities. 

The initial setup was fairly straightforward. 

The solution is very stable. 

So far, we are just testing it and seeking out use cases, however, so far, it's been an interesting solution to work with. 

What needs improvement?

We have too many processes. We use non-script data. We need to see how to capture this information and do a process mining to improve the data - to clean that data and store that data but in a clean way. We still need to figure out if UiPath can do this effectively.

We may need additional features for processing data.

For how long have I used the solution?

We haven't used the solution too long. We're still working to figure out if we will keep using it. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability has been good so far. There are no bugs or glitches. it doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

As we are still testing the solution, we only have five to ten users actually using the solution in our company. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is straightforward. It's easy. It's not overly complex or difficult. Everything is pretty simple to execute. 

We first tested the system to see how it worked, and then we implemented it. 

I cannot recall how many staff members were actually involved in the implementation process. 

What about the implementation team?

We used a consultant during the implementation. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We are looking at UiPath in comparison to Automation Anywhere, to see which works better and which we should use primarily.

Right now, we have Automation Anywhere, version 11, and that version is on-premise. The next step for us is we need to move to a cloud version, and we have find out of we should stay with Automation Anywhere and move to 360 or we move to UiPath's cloud version.

What other advice do I have?

We're a customer and an end-user. We don't have a business relationship with UiPath.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten so far. We're still experimenting and learning. We're still seeing what it can do and how it can fit into our business. However, from what we've seen, it's compelling. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Good support, reasonably priced, and the analysis of operational processes works well
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature is the analysis of operational processes."
  • "The interface could be more user-friendly so that it is easier for business people to use."

What is our primary use case?

I work with UI Process Mining at my client's company.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is the analysis of operational processes. 

What needs improvement?

The interface could be more user-friendly so that it is easier for business people to use. As it is now, using this product requires a specific understanding and training. If the interface were simpler then it would be easier to use.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with UiPath Process Mining for less than one year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

This is a stable product.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I think that it is scalable.

How are customer service and technical support?

The technical support is very good.

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

It is not an expensive product, although the price could be lower.

What other advice do I have?

My advice for anybody who is interesting in UiPath Process Mining is to try it as a proof of concept, first, so that they can determine its capabilities.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Useful insights into system vulnerabilities but flowchart does not provide a clear picture
Pros and Cons
  • "My experience with scalability was good."
  • "We found that the flow chart is not very clear for some of the complex processes."

What is our primary use case?

Our use cases are related to system vulnerabilities, such as memory display disks getting full and users getting locked out.

What is most valuable?

Sometimes we don't know the specific domain or business, but getting that insight helps us understand better. UiPath Process Mining gives us a summary of what's going on.

What needs improvement?

We found that the flow chart is not very clear for some of the complex processes. If I'm coming from A and going to either B or C based on some logic, the flow chart should depict that clearly. But in some cases, based on the logic, the flow goes from B to C, defeating the purpose of segregating B and C in the first place. So in these complex scenarios, the flow chart does not provide a clear picture. It may be due to a tool or a process issue, but we have difficulty understanding it. Therefore, this is an area of improvement for me.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using this solution for one year now.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is a stable solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I would rate scalability an eight out of ten. My experience with scalability was good.

How are customer service and support?

We reach out to customer support when we are doing some sort of image processing, the storage location, and all, because we can't save client data into our system. So at that time, we had to figure out what the best solution was since it was on-premises. We connected to the customer support team, and it was more about the architecture or configuration level than the user level.

What other advice do I have?

I definitely recommend using UiPath Process Mining. It will save a lot of time because we spend a huge amount of time on the discovery, PPD, etc. So, it will provide huge help, and it's very useful.

Overall, I would rate it a seven out of ten. It is a useful product, but there is still room for improvement.

Good data analysis feature but data crunching needs to be improved
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution has a very good data analysis feature."
  • "Data crunching needs to be done by an analytics team and then imported."

What is our primary use case?

Our work is mainly with our customers' companies. We are partners with UiPath and I'm our company's director.

What is most valuable?

The data analysis feature is very good. 

What needs improvement?

One of the challenges with UiPath is the crunching of data. The solution is not so smart so we have to use a data analytics team to do the crunching for us and then import the data into the tool. UiPath should have better connectors to the systems once they integrate with SAP. They have standard SAP Salesforce integration, but when it comes to third parties, integrations could be better. There are other products that have better connectors than UiPath.

For how long have I used the solution?

We've been using this solution for over a year. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

All our clients are enterprise organizations and the solution is scalable. 

How are customer service and technical support?

UiPath offers good technical support. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is a little complex although the actual deployment only takes a couple of minutes. 

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

Licensing costs could be lower. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate the solution six out of 10.

Good technical support and great training materials with an easy initial setup
Pros and Cons
  • "Technical support is quite helpful and responsive."
  • "The training materials sometimes don't keep up with the system changes."

What is our primary use case?

We primarily use the solution for document understanding and to automate the transfer of information between systems. Emails have been coming into a group of data entry clerks, and those data entry clerks, in the past, have been taking that information and pasting it into another system. We've basically automated that process. Now, the system reads the email, extracts the information, and then posts it to another system for us.

We are also taking a PDF with multiple documents, splitting it up into separate documents, and then posting that to another system.

What is most valuable?

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. 

Technical support is quite helpful and responsive.

The product, in general, is great with a good set of features.

The company offers very good training materials.

What needs improvement?

Getting a salesperson to actually call me back when I have a pricing question is extremely difficult. They need to work harder at getting back to their clients when they have queries.

I don't have any special requests in terms of new features I would like to see in upcoming releases. Right now, it does everything we need it to do.

The training materials sometimes don't keep up with the system changes.

For how long have I used the solution?

We've used the solution over the past 12 months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability of the product is good. 

However, the stability of the training materials, due to the speed that they're changing the software, isn't the best. It's very hard for the training materials and supporting documentation to keep up with the changes to the solution. What happens is, when I go in to implement a process, the process intuitively looks fairly easy to understand. However, when I begin to do it, the screens aren't reflected in the training materials or in the documentation. There's a gap. It's not that they don't have good materials, it's just that they're struggling to keep the documentation and the training materials or examples up to speed with the release.

How are customer service and technical support?

I've dealt with support in the past for multiple reasons. I would say that their technical support's been good, however, their sales support has been very hard to get a hold of. We can't seem to get our calls returned when it comes to pricing queries.

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

We're also using Automation Anywhere. We use both solutions currently.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is not complex at all. I would describe it as pretty straightforward.

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

UiPath doesn't clearly define the pricing models, which makes it very hard for customers. They have a wonderful product. If I could just find out how much it costs so I could buy it, it might be a lot nicer.

Currently, I have approximately five opportunities to implement this solution and I can't even tell people for sure how much it's going to cost to run it.

What other advice do I have?

We're consultants. We're not part of the partner program, which is probably what's causing the lack of sales support. Although, I have tried to get into the sales program. Even that is difficult. Their sales staff is so overwhelmed with opportunities that they're just not responsive.

We're doing process mining, however, it also has the document understanding and all those other things that we need as well.

We use both on-premises and cloud deployment models.

In general, I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten. Even though they're moving so fast that they can't keep up with the documentation, that's sort of a good thing. They're making a lot of progress very quickly.

The human-in-the-loop features are helpful
Pros and Cons
  • "UiPath's human-in-the-loop features are helpful."
  • "It would be nice if UiPath's Document Understanding feature supported more languages. I don't think it supports Chinese or Japanese. We have been working in the Asia-Pacific region for a long time, and this prevents us from recommending the solution to some customers."

What is most valuable?

UiPath's human-in-the-loop features are helpful.

What needs improvement?

It would be nice if UiPath's Document Understanding feature supported more languages. I don't think it supports Chinese or Japanese. We have been working in the Asia-Pacific region for a long time, and this prevents us from recommending the solution to some customers.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using UiPath Process Mining for three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

In general, UiPath is stable, but the document understanding part is less reliable. Some of our clients using document understanding were not happy with the results.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I think UiPath is scalable. That's what customers are looking for right now. 

How was the initial setup?

UiPath is easy to set up on a machine, but it's a bit difficult to install it on a more complex cloud environment. For example, it's complicated to deploy across two AWS instances.

What was our ROI?

It takes a bit longer to see value. A customer will see ROI if they have a sizeable budget and the patience to wait until they get a return. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

UiPath is a bit on the higher side compared to solutions like Automation Anywhere and Blue Prism. However, people tend to go with UiPath because it's more seamlessness.

What other advice do I have?

I rate UiPath Process Mining eight out of 10. New products are coming out like ABBYY OCR that claim they can do these things better, but they can't. The cost per page for UiPath is on the higher side, so that is the reason.

Satisfactory online support, and the solution is robust
Pros and Cons
  • "I have never had issues with online technical support."
  • "It would be helpful to make the spy modules more accurate."

What needs improvement?

There is room for improvement in the design studios. Design studios and exception handling are the two that we usually migrate to Blue Prism because Blue Prism's exception handling and design studios are much more, user-friendly.

It would be helpful to make the spy modules more accurate.

The spy modules will integrate your Citrix-based programs. Many people are moving to Citrix-based systems.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with UiPath Process Mining since 2019.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

UiPath Process Mining is a very stable product.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The most significant issue with scalability on most platforms, such as Blue Prism and UiPath, is that they are extremely expensive.

How are customer service and support?

I have never had issues with online technical support.

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

I have also been working with Blue Prism since 2016, 2017. We are using version 6.9.

Automation based on the browser. The browser base is very stable, but there is some room for improvement in the spying elements on some websites. It's your capability where you actually spy something and run it unattended because most of our bots are unattended fields, so you have to build in a whole backup just to deal with it that way.

Blue Prism is very stable.

They are expensive in terms of scalability. I believe their bots, particularly their resource bots, are superior to the majority of the others. You can run three solutions on one resource.

They're brilliant. Blue Prism has outstanding technical support.

It's not as simple as drag and drop. You have to design your own solution within Blue Prism. People need to concentrate more. Blue Prism is more unattended than attended, so they must concentrate more on your exception handling on Blue Prism to get the product to work perfectly.

The Blue Prism is simple to design, but handling exceptions requires careful thought. However, that product never fails.

I would rate Blue Prism a nine out of ten.

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

It is extremely expensive.

What other advice do I have?

One thing to remember about RPA is that you must first identify the appropriate processes. If you want to maximize your value impact, you must first identify the appropriate processes.

I would rate UiPath Process Mining an eight out of ten.
