Read full review Zoho Flow helps us greatly in connecting other Zoho apps. We use Flow to connect
Zoho Creator with
Zoho Books so an invoice is created when a record is entered into
Zoho Creator . We use Zoho Flow when certain fields containing data in Zoho CRM to send that data over to the
Zoho Creator record. We use it to add a contact from the
Zoho Creator record to a list in
Zoho Campaigns . Zoho Flow has proved very worthwhile.
Read full review Pros 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. Read full review Works with all other Zoho apps to connect them together and share data User interface and dashboard are nice. Gives you a detailed look into flow history and/or audit of your flows The ability to set logic responses and incorporate custom functions makes the app even more powerful Read full review Cons 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. Read full review A deeper resources section, with more "how-to" videos More user functionality to tell you when an app fails, and not just after failing 3 or 5 times in a row. Maybe add some scenario flows connecting two apps with examples of how the flow works and benefits a user.

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.
Read full review Usability 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.

Read full review Support Rating 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
Read full review I've reached out to the support team several times with assistance requests in Zoho Flow. Each time the team has answered my questions promptly and accurately. And because we are mainly integrating other Zoho apps their teams are perfectly positioned to solve our problems.
Read full review Online Training Video material supported by text. The training has evolved a lot in the past 3 years to become more attractive. Specific training tracks exist for the different roles in RPA development, where everyone is expected to learn basic development.
Read full review Implementation Rating The implementation was quick and practical
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review I've used
Zapier and both programs are similar.
Zapier has deeper integrations or more apps to integrate with but considering Flow's association with other Zoho apps this does it for us!
Read full review Scalability It can be widely used across various departments regardless of platform the product,processes, use cases are build on.
Read full review Return on Investment We are well on our way to automating our expenses, saving so many hours for project managers and engagement managers. Proofs-of-concept excite our clients, though we are yet to make a sale on a project. UiPath specifically has incited interest with our apprentices and has led them to join the RPA team. Read full review It's part of our Zoho One package, so it's hard to comment on this one. Assuming we did pay full price, I would say the ROI would be justified. For our example of sending invoices to Books from Creator saves us a great deal of time. It takes a bit of time to configure each Flow but once you get the hang of it the flows really do save time and ensure data quality. Read full review ScreenShots
