Blue Prism Cloud vs. UiPath Automation Platform

Blue Prism Cloud is an ideal cloud automation solution for organizations with a significant number of remote workers or geographically disparate teams since its accessible from any web browser. It is also beneficial for organizations that need to quickly outsource part of their process automation without having to purchase additional software licenses and equipment.

However, Blue Prism Cloud is less suited for companies that have large volume data processing needs as its base cost may quickly become prohibitive in those situations. Additionally, this solution may not be suitable for organizations that need more complex solution-specific configurations since its integration options are limited.

UiPath Automation Platform is well-suited for automating repetitive and time-consuming tasks such as invoice processing, data entry, and report generation. By using UiPath Automation Platform, employees can focus on more strategic tasks, which leads to increased efficiency. Additionally, UiPath Automation Platform is highly effective at automating rule-based processes, such as financial processes like bank statement reconciliation, account payable, and account receivable processes that follow a set of predetermined rules.

• UiPath is very simple to learn.
• Any type of application can be automated (Desktop Application, Web Application and also applications reachable only via remote technologies such as Citrix, Remote Desktop and so on).
• The writing of a process code takes place entirely through the use of objects. In the event that there were no objects capable of solving a particular problem, it is possible to use some languages of the .net platform such as: VB.net, C#.
• It is easy to scale the solution by adding more robots to run a process in case the solution requires more performance in the future.
• It can also be used by functional analysts to design the flow to be automated.
• An academy is available online where basic and advanced courses can be taken. It is also possible to take a completely free basic certification.

• Integrations with other tools
• Reporting
• User interface

• As I mentioned, Excel automation is not very effective, there are a number of packages to add, but there is nothing as smooth as a good macro.
• Working with selectors is certainly challenging and UiPath does a good job with that, but there is room for improvement since the interface could be smarter in selecting the right attributes and warn the user if something is not properly setup.

This platform has so much potential and have been garnering a lot of attention by proving benefits in terms of saving operational and manpower costs. I am sure with minute efforts we were able to achieve our ROI and the same is the case with many of our customers whom we have been working around Digital Automation initiatives.

It's an easy to maintain and easy to use RPA Tool. It has a relatively low learning curve when compared to other RPA tools in the market. That is mostly due to it's Academy where the bulk of engineers gather their information from. And their Community Forum, is outstanding with support from around the world and almost, if not all, every topic imaginable in the RPA field.

The Community Edition is updated on a regular basis, and last year they even managed to release a build every month!

The Orchestrator, Platform, Go!, Academy is cloud based which makes access to information and data very easy.

UiPath RPA has an exceptional studio interface. It has been a year and so since I am using UiPath RPA. Whether it is some my personal task to scrape information & links from the Journal or find a specific character string from multiple PDF collection using OCR, UiPath RPA has made its roots to our technological ecosystem

It offers the same user experience as other RPA solutions such as Automation Anywhere and UiPath, but with the added benefit of being able to leverage the cloud for scalability and manageability. Blue Prism Cloud works in conjunction with existing IT infrastructure, allowing users to continue running their current IT operations while automating processes.

Compared to Automation Anywhere and UiPath, Blue Prism Cloud has several distinct advantages. Firstly, it provides pre-built templates for commonly used tasks, enabling businesses to scale faster with increased agility. Secondly, its hybrid deployment model allows users to select either private or public clouds - providing improved scalability and flexibility.

As compared to other products, we require programming knowledge and concepts to work but UiPath is for everyone. It provides us extensive event logging at various stages and effective exception handling for applications and business. It increases our agility and enhances the overall productivity further by using the source control SVC. The solution that we implemented is also very scalable in terms of incorporating new requirements.

The open source tools require lots of IT effort in order to set up and maintain over time. UiPath is like a complete package and customer service is also active in terms of solving issues arising while automating procession on a day to day basis.

It can be widely used across various departments regardless of platform the product,processes, use cases are build on.
