I have used UiPath for very few projects. My go-to tool when it comes to automation is Power Automate. The reason for that is that I work in the Microsoft 365 environment, so Power Automate is better connected than UiPath.

With UiPath, I helped some organizations in my company automate tasks like data entry into systems such as SAP.

I like UiPath. I enjoy working on UiPath. It has a lot of different features to control, especially related to desktop flows. I helped some organizations in my company automate tasks like data entry into systems such as SAP. They had Excel files, and all that data needed to be input on standard screens in SAP. It was taking a fair amount of time to do it by hand. We created a flow that transfers all that data, interacting with the screens in SAP, and uploads that information where another alternative, like an API or mass upload tool, was not available.

It is pretty easy to build automation in UiPath. We could easily implement end-to-end automation. I was consulting a group within my company. I was helping them build the flow. For them, it was a game changer because they would have spent several man-hours trying to transfer all that data into SAP, creating all those SAP items. After that, they were not only able to complete the task at hand; they were also able to replicate and create more automations on their own because they knew how UiPath works. They learned a little bit more and were able to continue to expand the other processes they had.

We were able to realize its benefits quickly. It took us a couple of weeks to finalize the flow, but once it was built, we were able to start seeing the benefits. It definitely saved time.

I like the way that I can reference specific objects on the screen, like a specific text box, and add a value to it. The capability that UiPath has to recognize elements on the screen is what I found most useful at that time.

UiPath has a lot of courses for easy learning. There were several courses that I offered to the organization I was helping. I myself went through several online resources that UiPath offers to figure out things.

UiPath should be less sensitive to changes in the existing UI of the system we are trying to manipulate. If it was more intelligent in adapting to changes in the user interface and the tools we are trying to manipulate, it would be beneficial. If the UI changes or a label is changed, sometimes the whole flow breaks. Identifying where the flow breaks requires going into edit mode and making modifications. It might be quite extensive work with the new, updated UI.

I have been using UiPath here and there for at least two years. It is a part of the solutions that my company offers, but I have not used UiPath as much as Power Automate.

It performs well. I do not see any issues there.

I use Power Automate on a daily basis.

It was easy. It took us about a few weeks for ideation, selecting UiPath as a tool, getting everything set up, building the flow, and testing.

In terms of maintenance, users continually review and upgrade their flows. They can reuse the existing flows to create new ones.

I am not familiar with the pricing. I worked for an organization where the UiPath was available, so I do not know what the pricing is.

It was through an internal community that I connected with the organization for which I did the automation, and that is a great advantage. They were looking for people to help create automation. I was curious about UiPath, and I wanted to learn. I raised my hand to build that for them. An external community or a learning community is something that has proven its value by creating synergies between people who do not know and people who already know a little bit, allowing them to get together and grow.

In my opinion, RPA solutions are alternatives to digital transformation. Digital transformation is a big project. When you do not have access to those big budgets or the structure to get into new capabilities on an existing system or implement a future system, that is when you go to RPA to supplement the digital transformation. If the use case is not eligible for the big capital investment or the big project investment, you go through the route of RPA.

I would rate UiPath a nine out of ten.

Currently, we do not have any AI use cases. I work for a healthcare system. Our main use case is using UiPath to replicate what medical coders do. We input codes from certain medical systems into another, and it automates our billing cycle. This allows us to input the codes directly into the insurance billing cycle, speeding up our payment process.

Our hospital does not get paid if we are slow to get the codes to the payers. By automating this process with UiPath, we wanted to speed up the process of getting paid by the insurance companies. It has been amazing. Just this year, we probably saved 45 million dollars, and the next year, it will be upwards of 80 million.

In health care in America, many processes are still paper-based. Document processing is valuable as it allows doctors to have documents processed in advance, making it easier to access and ask questions. Additionally, UiPath has freed up staff time significantly, to the point where some staff had to be laid off. Our use of automation sped up the process of getting paid from insurance companies, saving us substantial amounts of money.

We're looking to add AI, specifically generative AI, but it's a matter of our organization implementing it. With autopilot features like Microsoft's Copilot or ChatGPT, users can start chatting immediately. However, with UiPath, one needs the UiPath Assistant installed on every machine, which is unrealistic as many people use the same machine in the hospital.

My enterprise has been using UiPath since 2021. My team inherited it in 2023, so it has been about 11 years.

The solution just went live yesterday, so I don't have feedback on its stability yet.

The solution is scalable. We previously had an older solution, and UiPath helped us revamp and upgrade our systems, making them more scalable.

The customer support from UiPath is amazing. We are part of the hypercare, and I would rate it as a nine out of ten.

We use Power Automate a lot and still incorporate it alongside UiPath. Some hospital systems require us to be all on-premises, so we use both UiPath and Power Automate to get our systems working as needed.

Some automations were built in-house by our team of developers. We also worked with an external partner and UiPath to implement some other solutions.

We have seen a 100% return on investment. The process is night and day when compared to paying employees over time for the same work.

It is more expensive than other automation services, but I don't deal with the financial details much.

As automation software, I would rate UiPath a ten out of ten.

The primary use case for UiPath is to automate tedious tasks in my organization and previous organizations. It's very friendly, offering free licensing, which makes it easy for people to learn and work with it. The ability to automate repetitive activities that take a lot of time is a significant advantage.

UiPath has enabled tasks to be done quickly and on schedule without human errors. It allows repetitive processes to be performed multiple times without issues, freeing human resources from tedious daily activities.

The user interface of UiPath is very easy to understand, and one does not need a technical background to learn it. The community is supportive, providing alternative solutions and quick responses.

UiPath's flexibility allows for significant automation, reducing manual errors significantly. The ability to have an orchestrator to manage processes efficiently is another valuable feature.

There is a need for more videos and examples on upcoming enhancements and changes. If they can improve the OCR engine and provide more detailed documentation and multiple examples, it would be helpful for adapting to new updates.

I have been using UiPath for almost nine years.

Stability-wise, the tool is good, however, each upgrade requires a lot of preparation, as it involves changing infrastructure and testing new capabilities.

There are no scalability issues mentioned in the transcript.

Technical support is rated seven on a scale from one to ten due to long communication cycles before getting hands-on help. However, they usually provide solutions and alternative methods that are helpful.

I previously used other RPA tools, including Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere. UiPath offers free licensing for learning, which is an advantage over other tools.

The initial setup is straightforward. On-premises deployment involves getting the development package and deploying it. Hybrid models require coordination with others but are not complex.

While specific numbers are not provided, UiPath certainly performs well in automating repetitive tasks, which likely contributes to a positive ROI.

Based on past experience, UiPath's pricing is moderate when compared to other tools. I rate it at seven out of ten in terms of cost.

Alternate solutions evaluated include Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere. Each has different strengths, but UiPath is preferred for its user-friendly interface and community support.

I would rate UiPath seven out of ten based on my current experience. For people from both technical and non-technical backgrounds, it's a great tool due to its easy learning curve. The licensing makes it accessible for learning and development.

We adopted UiPath to leverage its generative AI capabilities for rule-based automation. This technology enhances the resilience of our automated processes, ensuring continued functionality even when underlying systems or data undergo changes that would typically disrupt traditional automation.

Our business challenges necessitated a combined approach of AI and automation. While automation initially streamlined processes, its rigidity proved limiting when faced with changing information. AI, with its learning and adaptive capabilities, addressed this by recognizing patterns and adjusting to variations. This synergy allows the AI to handle similar changes without requiring new automation, ultimately achieving the same outcome with increased flexibility and efficiency.

Our automations are now AI-centric, and this focus will expand significantly within the company as our organization refines its AI strategy.

Our company is developing a new AI automation strategy focused on employee engagement, partnering with Microsoft Copilot and utilizing ChatGPT for automation. While our AI policy is still being developed, we plan to carefully consider how to best leverage UiPath's AI capabilities, with a strong emphasis on security, once the policy is in place.

UiPath has helped save our staff time to focus on other tasks.

UiPath's most valuable feature is Insights, which provides invaluable data on time savings and AI model performance.

UiPath should prioritize improving its updates and user-friendliness, particularly for new team members. Streamlining updates and simplifying the interface would enhance the onboarding experience and overall productivity.

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

In terms of what we use UiPath for, the stability has been great.

We utilize both cloud-based and on-premises automation solutions. Our infrastructure began with two servers and has gradually expanded to four. UiPath has proven to be a scalable platform, provided we maintain the necessary licenses.

UiPath's support is generally good, augmented by the assistance of a Technical Account Manager who helps escalate requests when needed. However, resolving issues without a TAM would be significantly more challenging.

Prior to my joining the team, the organization utilized Automation Anywhere.

The initial deployment was complex.

We collaborated with UiPath's service provider for the implementation, leveraging their expertise for the intake process and initial setup. Our experience thus far has been positive.

I would rate UiPath seven out of ten.

I recommend UiPath due to its robust user community, which provides valuable feedback that contributes to the continuous improvement and development of the product with new features.

UiPath is used to automate processes, eliminating the need to increase headcount.

There was an increase in both quality and quantity while not having to increase admin simultaneously. We have successfully automated the majority of our automation projects.

The UiPath automation has helped us to keep our bottom lines down across the board.

UiPath has helped our organization with its environmental and social initiatives.

It has freed staff time for other tasks, improved their work quality, and saved hundreds of hours per month.

UiPath is the best automation solution available today. The process and task management are the most valuable features.

UiPath's Unassisted Task Mining has room for improvement.

I have been using UiPath for four years.

UiPath's stability is reliable, especially now that we've moved to the cloud.

UiPath scales well. We have not had any issues.

UiPath support has been responsive to us.

UiPath has successfully met our expectations by reducing project costs through automation, demonstrating a strong return on investment.

I would rate UiPath ten out of ten.

I have used UiPath in my last three companies.

Currently, we use UiPath in multiple types of use cases and build innovations for our clients to improve their system operations. We don't plan to implement AI in our automations in the near future. We're interested in that market, but it's a long journey, and it's a little advanced for us right now.

UiPath is helping our organization with its environmental, social, and governance automation space. Though it's currently at a beginner stage, it is progressing, and we expect to see improvements. UiPath has helped us free up staff for other projects. We have engaged our employees in working with UiPath through presentations.

UiPath's integration features are highly valuable to us. We are able to achieve a lot with them.

For the moment, I don't see any explicit areas for improvement. However, having UiPath come up with unique features or advancements would be beneficial.

I have used UiPath for five years.

I don't see any drawbacks because our content is not down over time. We keep it updated consistently.

As our environment has grown, I haven’t encountered any specific issues or limitations.

I rate UiPath support nine out of 10. It's great, but sometimes we see delays. We ask a question, and they have to get back to us later with an answer. Otherwise, I don't see any drawbacks.

We previously tried out another automation app, but it didn't meet our expectations for handling exceptions and managing complex workflows.

Deploying UiPath was straightforward.

UiPath is the best tool, but the price is challenging from a management perspective. The cost-benefit equation might not work out favorably for some smaller organizations.

I rate UiPath 10 out of 10.

Currently, our automation work with UiPath primarily revolves around financial processes, such as accounts receivable work and tax deduction management. We are exploring generative AI, but have not developed any AI use cases for UiPath yet. We prioritize our automation use cases based on RoI and process complexity.

With UiPath, we have saved time and cut costs. For example, one process previously took several people six or seven hours, but we've reduced it to a four-minute process. This allows us to shift our teams to more analytical, value-added work instead of repetitive transactional tasks.

UiPath's learning modules have been a massive help in training our employees. The Orchestrator also helps us schedule, deploy, and monitor jobs.

We've engaged employees through meetings at the enterprise and department levels. Our manager has quarterly meetings with employees in different areas of the business to get them up to speed on what's happening in automation.

UiPath could have more robust, built-in auditing and logging. Currently, you need to build log messages into your automation to capture what's happening.

I have been using UiPath for three years.

We haven't really had any trouble with stability. It has been very well.

I was able to scale up very easily, as we recently stood up eight more robots. Setting everything up and gaining access took about five days, and we received a lot of support from UiPath for licensing and key management.

I rate UiPath support eight out of 10. We have had a good experience. Our technical account manager is very responsive, and the ticketing system that UiPath uses is quite successful. We received answers to our questions promptly, and overall, it has been a positive experience.

We previously used a competitor, Automation Anywhere.

We weren't heavily involved with deploying UiPath, but it seemed straightforward.

UiPath professional services managed the deployment and helped us convert about 40 automations.

We've saved thousands of hours using UiPath and freed employees to focus on more value-added work.

I rate UiPath eight out of 10.

We're a bank, so we primarily use UiPath to automate tasks such as filling out Excel sheets, organizing PDF files into folders, and reconciling rejected checks and chargebacks.

We prioritize use cases by meeting with each business unit to operational challenges that they would like to solve through automation. They walk us through the process they want to be automated, and we prioritize the requests based on potential hours saved and the automation difficulty.

The business units don't interact with the bots much. We get requests via email, and our Center of Excellence develops and maintains all the bots.

UiPath helps us improve operational efficiency. We want to grow our bank by increasing the number of accounts without adding more employees. Our headcount hasn't increased in the last four years while our assets have grown tremendously. By automating data entry and other monotonous tasks, UiPath has improved employees' sense of job fulfillment. It frees them up to work on more challenging tasks and work on new skills.

We like UiPath's integration with the ARIA framework and Orchestrator we use to manage our automations. The Copilot also helps us streamline the development process.

There could be better documentation for Copilot, and UiPath could provide solution design documents as part of the training.

We have used UiPath since 2021.

We haven't had any issues.

UiPath scales well with our environment.

I rate UiPath customer service eight out of 10. I had one issue where they pointed me in the right direction but didn't fully resolve it.

We've done some simple tasks with homegrown automation that UiPath could handle, but we opted to build the processes with tools we already had.

The initial setup involved using a UiPath partner, which significantly facilitated our production and deployment environments.

We've saved about 2,500 hours annually with UiPath.

I'm not responsible for the budget, but I know that UiPath is more expensive than its competitors.

I rate UiPath eight out of 10.

We have a lot of UiPath use cases. One of the bigger ones is the billing backup process.

Our company is growing like crazy and using automation allowed us to accommodate that growth without significantly increasing our headcount. We're always searching for new technology to help us stay competitive. We prioritize use cases based on the amount of time it will save. Also, the cost of the resource is factored in. The CEO's time is more valuable than my time.

We've done a lot to evangelize automation among our employees and incentivize them to submit ideas through rewards and prices. Additionally, we have seminars to share information about automation and the kinds of processes that might be good candidates.

UiPath Studio is the feature we use the most to build our automations, and Orchestrator enables us to stitch it all together and monitor bots.

UiPath helps us serve our customers better. For example, we built an automation that enables us to send our invoices to customers quicker, so we get paid faster and do more work for our clients. The solution also frees up staff to work on other projects. If we plan to automate a person's job fully, we ensure that we'll have something else ready for them to do.

UiPath has made some of the Activities less user-friendly as time goes on. Some things that were previously configured through the Properties panel have been moved to a separate activity card. It was easier when everything was in one place and faster.

Sometimes, UiPath tries to make it more accessible for people who aren't tech-savvy, but it complicates things for tech-oriented users like me.

I have used UiPath since 2020.

UiPath has been relatively stable. We haven't encountered many issues on UiPath's side. A few times, the performance has been miserably slow while we were trying to debug something, but I think they have fixed whatever the issue was.

UiPath's scalability has been pretty good. We haven't had any issues on the UiPath side. Our biggest problem has been managing our growth. UiPath gives us the tools to do that.

I rate UiPath support nine out of 10. We haven't needed to contact them often because most of our developers are tech-savvy people.

I was a VBA guy before. I still use Python for automating some processes, but UiPath is used for different purposes.

The initial deployment of UiPath was fairly complex, but I wasn't directly involved.

We hired excellent partners to assist with all the integrations we needed.

We've seen a return in time saved and reduced headcount. We've automated over 100 production processes. It's the equivalent of having 27 full-time employees, more than covering the solution's cost. We track the ROI on all our automations rigorously and ensure that the automations justify their costs, resulting in substantial savings.

I rate UiPath a solid eight out of 10.

We are primarily utilizing the platform within our department to gain buy-in for the customer's system.

We are a traditional development team, and using this platform has enabled us to work with multiple teams efficiently.

The governance aspect is very important to us. UFS Studio is also crucial for our operations.

There are significant delays between the technical team and the actual team. We are also missing some integrations with Google.

I cannot specify the exact amount of time we've been using it.

We have a dedicated development team. That said, we do have the resources to help with implementation.

I cannot speak on how it compares to other models or other components.
