UiPath Generative AI for Medical Records Summarization
Automation has transformed document review and now frees teams from weeks of manual work
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for UiPath Platform is primarily for RPA work, and we have been starting document extraction also. For RPA or document extraction, we are automating around 100 plus business automations from Blue Prism to UiPath currently, and for document extraction, that's where we're going to use all the commercial loans.
What is most valuable?
The best features that UiPath Platform offers include the ease of use, implementation, the low-code, no-code, and the very simple language, which works well for me.
The ease of use and simple language have helped my team because anyone with a bit of knowledge of RPA can easily ramp up on UiPath and then deliver complex solutions once certified and with a bit of experience.
UiPath Platform has positively impacted my organization with improved processes, cost savings, and the speed of the work. One specific outcome is that previously a seven-member team used to take a lot of time to review each and every document with the document extraction tool, and now we have reduced it from weeks to days.
The solution has reduced human error and freed up employee time. There used to be a manual process to review documents and errors, and a lot of work used to go there, but now it's all automated, and manual review is only required when there are errors.
What needs improvement?
To improve UiPath Platform, the initial ramp-up process for the team could be easier. If there are easy modules which people can train themselves on, that will help. Additionally, the approach to getting started with UiPath document extraction could be improved.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using UiPath Platform for roughly around two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
UiPath Platform is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
UiPath Platform's scalability is good. We are able to scale up to several hundred users.
How are customer service and support?
Customer support has been good, and we've been able to resolve the issues.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Previously, I used Blue Prism, and we switched to UiPath because of better features.
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment because it has saved time and reduced a lot of manual work, which the seven agents used to do.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it's mainly on a bundle plan, so it's fine mostly.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing UiPath Platform, I evaluated in-house solutions and open-source solutions.
What other advice do I have?
Regarding UiPath Platform's AI capabilities, I think it has its own guardrails, and I don't have any complaints over there. Regarding the accuracy and reliability of output from UiPath Platform's AI capabilities, I'm still working on it. I haven't seen much results yet, but I need to work on it more.
My thoughts on UiPath's user community in terms of value is that it's good for exchange of ideas. In a specific workflow, we use coding agents with Co-pilot, which speeds up the work and the process.
My advice to others looking into using UiPath Platform is to keep up with the latest capabilities. I would rate this review as a nine out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Automation has streamlined financial document reviews and has reduced manual effort in banking
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for UiPath Platform is to automate several financial processes within the bank. One specific financial process we've automated with UiPath is that we have automations that compare financial documents that are sent in from other organizations to make financial decisions.
What is most valuable?
UiPath Platform's best features include its ease of use, installed studio flexibility, and the effectiveness of its UI automation activities when working with user interfaces.
The flexibility of the installed studio helps significantly for the UI automation activities because I typically do not have to go back too often and refine selectors and add new anchors once things are actually pulled in by the studio.
UiPath Platform has positively impacted my organization by providing substantial cost savings for our business units, which is why they request us to automate many of these processes, resulting in considerable cost savings and freeing up teammates to do other things. From at least one of our business units, I can say that they were able to move about five to ten FTEs from doing a manual process to running our automated process and were able to move them to more complicated tasks, resulting in about a fifty percent reduction in that staff that were able to be moved somewhere else.
What needs improvement?
UiPath Platform has some areas where it can be improved, and currently, it seems like the company is already in the process of making enhancements, particularly with the coded agents that we learned about recently which will allow them to reach LLMs on-premises.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using UiPath Platform for six years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
UiPath Platform is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
UiPath Platform has turned out to be very scalable for us.
How are customer service and support?
Customer support for UiPath Platform has been great. I would rate the customer support on a scale of one to ten a ten.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We previously used a different solution called Blue Prism. I decided to switch from Blue Prism to UiPath Platform because Blue Prism had a very clunky interface and no orchestration layer.
What was our ROI?
We have seen a return on investment and savings, but I do not have any metrics that I can actually give.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is positive, as we had good representatives that walked us through the process and guided us with how the licensing contracts worked.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing UiPath Platform, I evaluated other options, including Automation Anywhere.
What other advice do I have?
Regarding UiPath Platform's AI capabilities, I think its governance and security are pretty standard along the lines of other places, falling in line with most organizations, but it is a little more stringent for me being from a financial institution. I have been very pleased with the accuracy and reliability of output so far, as I have noticed that sometimes I just have to refine some of my prompts to get better results.
We use Amazon as our cloud provider for our private cloud deployment. I did not purchase UiPath Platform through the AWS marketplace. We go directly through the UiPath Platform vendor.
UiPath Platform has reduced human error and freed up employee time, allowing us to experience multiple cost savings and move employees to different departments. We have used the vendor's UiPath Academy courses, and the biggest benefits we have seen from UiPath Academy are that they are very cost effective because they end up being free, and we can learn new skills as soon as they are available.
My thoughts on UiPath's user community are that it is good to be part of because it allows communication with many different individuals who can help follow through with some issues that I may be having.
I am not using agentic automation at the moment, as we still need to update our platform for it.
My advice to others looking into using UiPath Platform is to stay engaged with the UiPath team, as they are really good at answering questions and guiding you, and to use UiPath Academy to understand the product. I would rate this review an eight out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Automation has streamlined finance workflows and has improved compliance and client communications
What is our primary use case?
We are automating finance processes, and a specific example of how I use it day-to-day is through our automation efforts.
The finance processes we are automating include a use case called Forms and Materials Automation, which addressed a long-standing execution gap where there was inconsistent use of outdated or incorrect forms that were introduced for compliance risk and impacted the client experience. This release centralized and automated access to 169 forms, ensuring the advisors consistently used the most current approved materials, which helped reduce the manual effort, eliminate version risk, and improve the quality, consistency, and compliance of client communications.
Regarding my main use case, we are trying to use UiPath Platform for different capabilities including IXP, Maestro Orchestration, and Test Automation in the future.
What is most valuable?
The best features that UiPath Platform offers in my opinion are found in the use cases I have been heavily engaged with, which are pure RPA. However, I feel that UiPath is introducing many great features such as Maestro Orchestration and Cryptography, which will really help change the game, especially for my role as a consultant to be the bridge between IT and the business.
Cryptography and Maestro are features I have not used yet, but I have heard great things at the conference, and I am very excited to try them because Cryptography will definitely help streamline a lot of the intake and discovery effort to help design the solution and the use case faster and efficiently.
UiPath Platform has positively impacted my organization by shaping the enterprise and helping cut costs and risk associated with many different divisions across Vanguard, transforming the automation opportunities and reimagining manual processes with technologies to shape up and help the business deliver faster outcomes.
What needs improvement?
I do not recall any major gaps right now, but I do see that we have a long way to go in terms of enabling technologies that UiPath Platform is introducing, such as Test Cloud, coding agents, Maestro, and Cryptography in the company in the future.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using UiPath Platform as a consultant for about one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I find UiPath Platform stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We have about 100 or more automations, so UiPath Platform is pretty scalable across the enterprise.
How are customer service and support?
We do have federated teams and an IT enablement team, so we have good support, and we have good support with UiPath Platform as well.
What was our ROI?
We saved about $4.77 million in annual capacity value for one of the use cases called Trading Cost Basis, which strengthened the trading cost basis control environment by automating the detection and reporting of potential cost basis discrepancies, moving from manual transaction sampling to automated validation of in-scope transactions, enabling earlier issue identification, faster remediation, and reducing the operational risk.
I see a return on investment with UiPath Platform as a platform since requesting the software is an easy process for our enterprise.
What other advice do I have?
UiPath Platform has positively impacted my organization by shaping the enterprise and helping cut costs and risk associated with many different divisions across Vanguard, transforming the automation opportunities and reimagining manual processes with technologies to shape up and help the business deliver faster outcomes.
I recommend UiPath Platform as it is the only good automation tool I have known and have used, so I recommend it to others. My overall review rating for UiPath Platform is 8.
Automation has transformed test case creation and now delivers rapid, reliable testing outcomes
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for UiPath Platform is test automation. My use case with UiPath's Agentic Automation involves test case generation, and I have used it for healthcare clients.
What is most valuable?
The features of UiPath Platform that I appreciate the most are Autopilot and Test Automation self-healing capabilities. These features benefit my organization by making it very easy to create test cases using AutoTest, as we only need to provide plain English and it generates the test cases.
What needs improvement?
For improvement, I believe there are some native integrations with other automation tools that we would like UiPath to have, and if it has those, it will be beneficial for us. In the next release, I think there should be more integrations with other automation tools, especially open-source automation tools.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using UiPath Platform for one year now.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Prior to adopting UiPath Platform, I was using open-source tools like Selenium and Playwright to address similar needs.
How was the initial setup?
I would describe my experience with deploying UiPath Platform as easy, as the team was very helpful in assisting us with deploying their application on the client machine. What worked well was that there were many firewalls that had to be opened, which was not because of UiPath but because of the client, as they had some firewall issues.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before selecting UiPath Platform, I considered other open-source tools and Tricentis. What stood out to me in my evaluation process was the ease of use, Agentic use case, and the cost.
What other advice do I have?
I do use Agentic AI. I would assess Agentic AI's ability to extract data points as very good because I can use it to generate my test cases, and it helps me do it without any problems. Extracting data points with Agentic AI saves a lot of time, approximately a couple of hours. I do not have any metrics to share, but to create a normal test case, it will take around three to four hours, but with Agentic capabilities, it can be done in less than fifteen to twenty minutes.
I currently use UiPath's Agentic Automation capabilities. The Agentic capabilities I use include Autopilot. By leveraging Agentic Automation, I have achieved faster automation, self-healing capabilities, and better reporting. My overall experience using UiPath's Agentic Automation capabilities has been very positive so far.
My teams and I have used the vendor's UiPath Academy courses. The biggest benefits I have seen from the Academy are that there are dedicated courses for automation that we have gone through, and UiPath has created a separate course for our organization. Every teammate who has to onboard goes through that training material. I think the UiPath user community is valuable; it truly feels good, and the team members over there are really great. They help you out wherever and however it is needed.
The factors that led me to consider a change were that I needed an enterprise-level tool, and moreover, I needed something that can help me with every consolidated tool for the complete organization. My advice for other organizations considering UiPath Platform is to do so as an enterprise-level tool, as it can help you consolidate many applications into one. I would rate this platform a ten out of ten.
Automated testing has reduced bugs and supports reliable banking migrations
What is our primary use case?
At Banca Transilvania, we have used UiPath Platform since its early days. In my position, I have not used it for an extensive period. Our main use case for UiPath Platform is extensive testing. We use it for testing in loan origination, for core banking, and for different types of applications, most of which are web-based. It fits very well into our testing processes and solves our problems for testing, but not for other things.
What is most valuable?
The best features that UiPath Platform offers are automated testing, manual testing, and self-healing. The self-healing feature helps our team with testing because our application development is incremental, and it solves our problem with rewriting automated testing. UiPath Platform has positively impacted our organization because this type of testing is done so well that our QA developers are very happy, and the customer is happy because there are fewer bugs, making developers feel very good about it. We have seen a reduction in bugs as a specific outcome. In the core banking migration where I was involved, we did not have any bugs on the launch of production.
What needs improvement?
I think that manual testing could be somehow moved to automated when you determine your manual test was satisfactory.
For how long have I used the solution?
In my current field of IT, I have approximately 40 years of experience.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
UiPath Platform is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
UiPath Platform's scalability is adequate.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support for UiPath Platform is very good.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We are not using other solutions.
What was our ROI?
I see a return on investment, but I cannot provide more details.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing of UiPath Platform is that it is not cheap, but it is not very high either.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We have not evaluated other options before choosing UiPath Platform.
What other advice do I have?
We do not use UiPath Academy courses. I think UiPath's user community is adequate, but we are not part of it. We are not using UiPath Communications Mining to automate actions or responses according to the type of content in the message. We are not using Agentic Automation. My advice for others looking into using UiPath Platform is to test it and use it. I would rate this review as a 9.
Automation has reduced manual document work but still needs better signature detection
What is our primary use case?
I use UiPath Platform to get Excel data, and from that Excel I need to integrate my solution with external vendors through API and with the result, I need to update that Excel and provide it to my business partners in other departments as a result of that.
Currently I am working with Document Understanding, but I'm facing some challenges as Document Understanding is not able to figure out signatures which are already there, but not in the particular box which I have designed. So that is why my use case is working for around sixty to seventy percent and failing for thirty percent of it. Consequently, I need to switch to AI and I need to burn tokens, which is a pain point.
What is most valuable?
I find scheduling to be the most valuable aspect of Orchestrator, and monitoring is, of course, a big plus point.
UiPath Platform positively impacts my organization as it eliminates the complexity of the processes and basically solves the mundane process which my associates used to do.
What needs improvement?
I think some video guidance and video tutorials would be great.
For how long have I used the solution?
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
How are customer service and support?
I would rate the customer support a ten.
What was our ROI?
UiPath Platform positively impacts my organization as it eliminates the complexity of the processes and basically solves the mundane process which my associates used to do.
The solution has reduced human error and freed up employee time, positively affecting my business as my associates can do more valuable tasks now.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
What other advice do I have?
I am happy with UiPath Platform implementation and the product and features it offers.
UiPath Platform is the best in the market.
It is quite scalable.
UiPath Academy is the most useful source of knowledge and information; I got to know Document Understanding and how I can implement it.
I view UiPath's user community positively.
I give this review a rating of seven.
Automation has reduced repetitive work and improves time savings for people-focused tasks
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for UiPath Platform is automating all the processes, or most of the processes, that are highly repetitive and can be automated while applying intelligence.
A specific example of a process I have automated with UiPath Platform is called Vandalism, where we internally validate the physical condition of the bank's ATMs.
What is most valuable?
One of the best functionalities that UiPath Platform offers is precisely the automation and the conjunction with the agents.
The integration with the agents has benefited my organization by allowing us to validate with an agent the quality of the physical condition, and it gives us a clear, concise, and accurate executive summary.
UiPath Platform has had a positive impact on my organization by increasing the FTEs.
UiPath Platform has helped reduce human errors or free up employees' time, as today humans do things that belong to humans, and robots handle things that are highly repetitive.
A specific example of how this division has improved productivity or the quality of work in my team is that it has improved time, efficiency, and quality of life.
What needs improvement?
At the moment, I cannot think of anything that could improve UiPath Platform.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using UiPath Platform for approximately five years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I consider UiPath Platform to be stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I rate the scalability of UiPath Platform as good. However, for corporate and privacy matters, many times it is not possible, since Cloud Robots are a very good option to automate as long as they are used to automate on public sites.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support for UiPath Platform has been good.
I would rate customer support for UiPath Platform an eight on a scale from one to ten.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I did not use any other solution before UiPath Platform.
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment, and the main KPI we have is precisely the time savings that is given back to the human.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My experience with pricing, implementation costs, and licenses is that the licenses are indeed expensive. However, if you aim to make time more efficient and focus on a qualitative approach rather than a quantitative one, then you can avoid fines.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We were in a period of searching for a new tool before choosing UiPath Platform. However, the integrations that UiPath Platform had, mainly with Microsoft On-Premise and Online, and the position it has in the Gartner quadrant, gave us the opportunity to decide to use UiPath Platform.
What other advice do I have?
I have used UiPath Academy courses, and the main benefits I have gained from UiPath Academy include ongoing training and the use of new tools.
By applying UiPath Academy training to a group of our developers, they specialize and they themselves spread the knowledge, making new tools easy to adopt.
I do not consider that the Platform user community provides value or has been useful to me in any way.
My advice to other people who are considering using UiPath Platform is that they complete all the Academy courses or dedicate a good amount of time to it in order to have a complete onboarding and understand the tools that can be used for the project they have.
I found this interview to be slow in pace.
I would like you to share a brief poem or a haiku that summarizes my opinion about UiPath Platform. I have given UiPath Platform an overall rating of nine out of ten.
Automation has improved banking reconciliations and fraud workflows and simplifies orchestration
What is our primary use case?
My primary use cases for UiPath Platform in my company are around business processes, customer service, and while we don't completely operate on the customer-facing side, we definitely help a lot with automations around fraud, payments, and reconciliations because being a banking system, we have many use cases around these areas, especially with numbers and reconciliations.
What is most valuable?
The features of UiPath Platform that I prefer the most include the long-running persistence activities, which allow you to release the license and suspend the job during long processes without wasting the license, and the Insights dashboard, which is an amazing automated reporting model based on queue items that generates and delivers reports periodically. Everything in UiPath Platform is amazing, especially its integration capabilities with services such as Salesforce and Microsoft Office 365, making our email interactions easier.
Additionally, I appreciate the terminal feature because in banking, many applications still use mainframe applications, and automating those processes is much easier with UiPath Platform's inbuilt emulator.
The benefits I realize from using UiPath Platform include that orchestration is much easier and more accessible, and the system is pretty flexible, making the setup less complicated. The cloud setup alleviates worries about infrastructure, especially beneficial for smaller institutions such as FIASoft, which cannot bear the costs of a data center or maintain a team.
What needs improvement?
In my opinion, one area where UiPath Platform can be improved is the Orchestrator's latency, which occurs sometimes while we're in the cloud.
We experience a lot of latency issues, especially with almost 100 automations generating substantial data, causing significant latency that we should aim to improve.
To make it a ten, I believe improvements in the Orchestrator and finding a better way to optimize agent costs, perhaps using a RAG model or a wrapper, would benefit both UiPath Platform and consumers.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using UiPath Platform since 2019.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
The other RPA tools I have used include Power Apps, OpenBots, which is mainly for extraction, and Blue Prism, where I started my RPA career. Blue Prism had very limited actions and integrations with other platforms, which led me to require UiPath Platform, and since 2019, I haven't looked back.
What other advice do I have?
I use Agentic AI, but we've recently gotten approved for it and are currently making certain proofs of concept. We anticipate many questions around governance and security regarding the use of Agentic AI, which is one of the main reasons I'm here to understand the metrics and parameters around risk and governance.
I assess Agentic AI's ability to extract data points as very efficient compared to Document Understanding, though it incurs a lot of tokens, which poses challenges in a financial institution dealing with numerous documents. For example, handling a loan application with several documents requires extensive data extraction with Document OCR before processing it through Agentic AI, which can be costly in terms of tokens. Overall, performance-wise, it remains really efficient.
I have realized time savings when extracting data with Agentic AI, as our recent proof of concept demonstrated that it eliminates the multiple stages involved in Document Understanding, allowing us to send information and receive responses within a couple of seconds, making it really fast.
Currently, I do not use UiPath Platform's agentic automation capabilities such as Autopilot, as we're not permitted to use AI at all. However, I have exposure to Autopilot and see great potential in using coding agents and our approved in-house GitHub Copilot to expedite the development process.
My overall impression of using UiPath Platform's agentic automation is that it represents the next level of development and can significantly impact the current automation industry. My overall review rating for UiPath Platform is nine out of ten.
Automation has transformed testing cycles and now delivers major time and cost savings
What is our primary use case?
The main use case initially involved financial close operations, where we used bots to complete repetitive financial close tasks as part of the Berkshire Hathaway Group. Currently, as a partner, I use this primarily on large transformations that customers are undergoing, whether it is on SAP, Oracle, Salesforce, Workday, and other platforms. We utilize Test Cloud extensively, which has all the features of Test Cloud being utilized.
We have automated many financial use cases for most of our customers and suggested it to help them adapt quickly, along with logistics and order management use cases. Agentic AI helps us create thousands of orders in a day for testing or business purposes, replacing a process that used to take close to a month.
Prior to adopting UiPath Platform, we used Tricentis as another solution to address similar needs. However, UiPath Platform has proven to be much faster and more reliable.
How has it helped my organization?
The features of UiPath Platform have benefited my organization immensely, as a lot of time is spent creating things manually, particularly for large transformations. We create a lot of test cases for the business process manually, but with the Agentic AI version on Test Cloud, we ran through all the requirements documentation and uploaded all the requirement documents. It provided us with the workflows and the test cases or test scenarios to be tested, saving us probably about two to three months of time. In a project of fifteen months, three months of savings is almost twenty percent savings immediately. Secondly, we continue to use this for automation, converting the manual test cases into automation immediately, which saves an additional two months on our overall testing cycle. Roughly about thirty to thirty-two percent of overall time savings translates into millions of dollars for all the companies involved.
What is most valuable?
I find the Agentic AI version on the cloud of UiPath Platform the most valuable.
By leveraging Agentic automation, we have achieved a minimum of thirty percent acceleration in our initial use case with Agentic AI in converting requirements to test cases. We have also saved about fifty percent of the time spent on automation by using the Agentic AI version.
My overall experience using UiPath Platform's Agentic automation capabilities has been absolutely fantastic. We have used Tricentis and many other tools, including SAP Joule, but UiPath Platform's Agentic AI has significantly sped up many processes and helped us overcome past issues we encountered.
What needs improvement?
I believe UiPath Platform could be improved price-wise, as I believe the Test Cloud version currently prices based on the number of transactions. If you have one hundred test case scenarios and execute them just ten times a year, it totals one thousand executions based on that pricing model, which is very good. Additionally, if they could extend the cloud capabilities of Agentic AI further, it would be beneficial since on-premise customers may have to spend more on servers. If everything could be put in the cloud, they could save on that.
My thoughts on UiPath Platform's user community are that it can definitely improve. In my twenty-five years of experience, including on the influential council for SAP and Salesforce, I have observed that other user communities are more broadly covered with greater engagement. While UiPath Platform's community is really good, I see room for improvement in forming user groups, possibly region-based or something similar.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using UiPath Platform for the last fourteen years.
How are customer service and support?
There was initial slowness in responding when a service ticket was raised, but I believe that has improved, and I do not see that challenge anymore.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Before selecting UiPath Platform, we considered other solutions, specifically Panaya, Tricentis, and UiPath Platform itself. Most customers preferred UiPath Platform due to its ease of use, enabling even individuals without technical knowledge to automate processes, making it a user-friendly tool.
How was the initial setup?
My experience deploying UiPath Platform is absolutely positive. For example, deploying Tricentis could take anywhere from six to eight weeks for our customers, whereas with UiPath Platform, we have managed to achieve deployment in just a week to ten days, showcasing its adaptability and quick deployment capabilities.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
What stood out to me during the evaluation process, both positively and negatively when comparing these options, is how UiPath Platform adapted technology quickly, bringing AI to the forefront as a pioneer compared to many other AI platform vendors. The reliability increased confidence among users significantly.
What other advice do I have?
We use the initial capability to convert requirements into test cases, and the second one we use is converting those test cases into automation. These are the two major capabilities we are using.
Agentic AI's ability to extract data points initially needed human review since, when we started working with it, it was thirty percent accurate and required seventy percent human review. However, it has learned a lot, and now we trust the Agentic AI version at least sixty to seventy percent, which is a significant change we have seen.
We saved close to eighty percent of the time extracting data points with Agentic AI because it takes away a lot of human effort needed to analyze the data. For example, if it is an SAP transformation, there are huge changes in understanding the Signavio or the BPMLs. The Agentic AI on Test Cloud helped us convert those Signavio and BPMLs into immediate business process scenarios based on our customer's business process, helping us kickstart our design faster.
My team has used the vendor's UiPath Academy courses.
The biggest benefits from UiPath Academy come from when we got into a new customer with specific requirements to utilize the entire Test Cloud. Initially, our team was only using automation, but with the academy, we accelerated our entire testing lifecycle, which is significant for us as there are multiple stages of test cases we create. We were able to effectively use everything through the Agentic AI version.
The factors leading me to consider optimizing our approach included spending extensive time on manual tasks despite having automation capabilities. With UiPath Platform, we have seen a significant reduction in that effort, as UiPath Platform Agentic AI provides around ninety to ninety-five percent automation compared to just forty to fifty percent with our previous system.
My advice to other organizations considering UiPath Platform is to understand that it is not just about adopting new technology. The adaptability, ease of usability, and how to engage business users beyond the user community are critical. It is important for everyone in the enterprise to start utilizing this, as quality and functionality are not just one person's responsibility in an organization. If the entire organization can adopt these practices, it will help scale overall productivity. I would rate this platform a ten out of ten overall.
Automation has transformed refund processing and has freed teams for higher value customer work
What is our primary use case?
UiPath Platform is used for financial back-office processes, operations teams, service, and HR and people team functions. For operations, a specific example of a finance process automated with UiPath Platform is the entire money refund flow. All information needed to validate the refund for the customer goes through bots on UiPath Platform that process data, execute operations and functions within Salesforce, and move the step forward so that a human can decide on the payment, process the payment, and enter information into platforms, portals, and the money refund portal. The money refund flow is the most relevant use case.
What is most valuable?
UiPath Platform offers fast development and value delivery, along with development speed and major benefits for business users. Visibility through the orchestration in Orchestrator provides full end-to-end visibility over automations.
Visibility and orchestration make day-to-day work and process control easier as schedules, bot activation times, and errors, issues, and breakages can be identified and viewed quickly and dynamically.
UiPath Platform has had a positive impact on the organization as repetitive manual executions have been measured and reduced, and people who were performing robots' work have been reallocated to other departments.
What needs improvement?
UiPath Platform can be improved by using AI agents to suggest code, which is already a significant step forward, and by expanding plug-and-play integrations.
For how long have I used the solution?
UiPath Platform has been used since 2023.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
UiPath Platform is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
UiPath Platform is highly scalable with easy development.
How are customer service and support?
Customer support has always been fast even though I did not need to use it.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
A different solution was not previously used.
How was the initial setup?
The experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing was good, fast, and within the average.
What about the implementation team?
UiPath Academy courses have been used by my team and me, and the biggest benefit was the training of professionals.
