  • Combine RPA and API integration for speed and scale across the widest range of systems
  • Remove work from paperwork with intelligent document processing
  • Incorporate AI and machine learning (ML) models into automations

It addresses admin problems to our clients within departments with aging roles/tasks. For example, invoice logging from PDF's that are returned from carrier companies in the logistics industry. Through RPA, it accelerates these processes to simplify the logging process and create less workload for the carrier associates who are responsible for a task like that.

UiPath is being used by our global business services organization. It has become our standard solution for automation. We have several bots deployed currently doing back-end processes for finance operations and some vendor management functions too. In the past, our automation technology is mostly VBA macros. While this has been manageable in the past, maintaining a library of over a thousand macros has become difficult and the macro capabilities are limited too. UiPath solves those issues as we now have visibility on the bots deployed. Its features and capabilities are top of the game and continuously improving.

We are using it to automate our own processes but mainly use it when helping our customers document, automate, schedule, deploy and manage their workflow automation. We have built several complex but repetetive rule-based business automations that save our customers a lot of time. UiPath is a great platform for doing this.

We have been using UiPath in the organisation from more than 3 years. We have many projects across many departments that have used UiPath. By using UiPath we can reduce our time by building reusable components. One of the main concerns we have with using this tool is that OCR is a bit slow. After moving to the cloud platform, the Orchestrator API was not working. But we still have more trust in UiPath compared to other vendors.

We are using UiPath in our insurance department. We provide solutions through UiPath when our client uses applications like SAP, Outlook, Excel, Computron etc. We use it to automate the insurance processes like cash applications, sending notices, and entering premium data in SAP applications.

UiPath is being used across the whole organization. It addresses manual processes in banking. I also do data scraping and automation tasks. For example, I scraped Twitter data using hashtags. I scraped +ve and -ve tweets to an excel file and then analyzed the text into +ve and -ve tweets using Natural Language Text Understanding.

UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform is being used in a hybrid model. This means we have a central and cross-organizational CoE, and areas have RPS allocated with responsibilities for automating their processes. A major problem comes from how we allocate resources in the business areas. As they are not 100% allocated to RPA, the delivery time is too high and bot/process maintenance is left in the background. Another problem comes from users not being in the IT department. We have some physical machine performance issues that users can't solve.

As we are from education institutional background, we train our students on UiPath RPA to face the current market scenarios and help them get jobs in these fields. Recently, we added an RPA lab to teach our students about RPA. These students design projects that help our organization maintain their student profiles in our ERP System without error. Before this, we needed 7-8 people to update and maintain all student profiles. This method took time and even when finished had some errors. UiPath bots complete this process within a few minutes and without error.

We started RPA COE in our company using UiPath Studio. At present we are using AA also. Based on the client requirements and pricing models we select one of them for any process automation. We support BPO operations for international airlines and OTAs around the world. So our main area of focus on automation is the airline domain.

UIPath is currently being used by the IT department to automate the offboarding process for separated employees. We are doing a bit of a roadshow to the different business areas showing them how it can be used to remove inefficiencies from their department and improve employee happiness. We are currently working on a proof of concept for our human resources and customer service department. We are excited to put UiPath to work in our business areas and show them how much time it can help save!

In my company, UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform is being used across the whole organization, in multiple departments and for various clients (insurance, banking, aeronautics, etc.). It addresses the reduction of time-consuming tasks by using attended or unattended robots. Either engineers such as myself are sent to implement UiPath at the client's office on long missions, or engineers stay at my company's office and develop processes from there, going only occasionally to implement at our clients.

We are using it in our department only. We have automated the JIRA ticket creating process. Our client has an EDI application. When there are any errors occuring in the application, it will automatically send the error emails to the maintenance teams. So, the maintenance team has to create a JIRA ticket for that error based on some business rules. This EDI application has been used across several countries. The maintenance team used to receive a lot of emails mostly duplicate emails. So, they ended up creating duplicate tickets. And, filtering those tickets became hectic. So, we have created a process, where we have defined some business rules to avoid redundancy and automated the process to reduce human effort.

We are using UiPath Enterprise in our company to build and develop Robotic Process Automation Solutions within the organization as well as for other organizations. We have our own Robotic Process Automation Team and our team members build and develop solutions using this product. We are mainly automating Accounts Payable processes and data entry processes in organizations. We also use this tool in corp-orated with machine learning to automate processes with unstructured data.

I'm using UiPath on a customer-oriented project. RPA is applied in many sides of operation: Document classification using Google OCR and a "robotic" classificator based on keywords, processes based on Salesforce, SAP and many other customer portals. UiPath obtain good result also using free OCR as Google OCR. The results are between 40 and 60% on scanned documents.

UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform is used both internally and externally to automate our customers' business processes. The reference department is IT services. For internal services I have personally developed robots that support the compilation of forecast and backlog data relating to ongoing projects. For our customers, particularly in the energy sector, we automate business processes.

UiPath is one of the tools we have been using for the past 2 years for various processes and research within our organization. Be it HR or Financial process related use cases, it will fetch us quick results. You can expect a ROI within a span of 6-8 months based upon the case. We have recommended UiPath to many of our customers in US and have sold good number of licenses too.

UiPath allows me to work with structured data but I have to take into account the introduction of tables or data collection and that its interpretation can be difficult. It uses a more visual system, but learning and development can be more difficult considering that prior knowledge is needed. In terms of precision, UiPath works very well in Citrix environments, although its use in mobile devices does not allow the use of all modules.

UiPath is one of most widely used RPA tools. Compared to its other competitor, the pricing is just right. It can handle big tasks and automation process, from low complexity to high complexity. With it you can easily automate other business applications such as MS Outlook, SAP, MS Exchange, PDF forms and other MS Office, websites and other windows based forms. UiPath has been an amazing tool and has been helpful in providing solutions especially in the finance and accounting area. We have had great feedback from our clients abroad and locally because of the solutions we have provided using UiPath. From a consultant point of view with little to no experience at all in the technicalities, this tool is easy to comprehend. As a developer, it is very easy to learn and use. The tool itself provides different built in activities that are very helpful in providing automated solutions to clients. One of the most used activities would be the Excel ones. Since, if not all then most, clients proces their day to day business tasks in Excel. From processing payments to creating employee reports. Because of this repetitive and manual business problem, Excel activities in UiPath come in handy. Aside from great features, UiPath provides learnings which you can follow and enroll for better and deeper understanding of the tool.

We are using it for a wide range of business application automation activities across the whole of Roche. We have implemented a number of robots which carry out automation activities such as form filling, email workflow, file uploads, image detection and general application automation. We have also designed a way to use legacy applications as REST interfaces using UiPath to further extend the usability of legacy or single use case applications that don't have an API.

It is one of the RPA tools that we use in our organization for automating some of the processes in HR and Finance departments which requires going through a large set of documents, majorly invoices, payslips and onboarding documents. Our major focus is generally to automate those processes which are rule or pattern based and time consuming. To date, we have automated a huge number of processes and saved our manpower from doing tedious work which involves almost zero creativity.

UiPath is one of the RPA vendor tools that we use in our organization. We've had multiple clients demanding it from doing a pre-research before they step into our client tours.

However, after our discussions, they are confused if their software decision was right. Most client decisions cannot be made just by reviewing blogs, websites or reviews. They have to see some of them run live. The next question clients ask if what software we prefer, and most times we propose UiPath.

My company did an evaluation of the top 3 players in the RPA market and decided to get UiPath for its scalability, reputation on customer support and capabilities. Currently, there is a Center of Excellence and a number of areas adopting RPA. I'm an earlier user, so-called citizen developer, supporting Finance. So far I have developed 3 small robots to help with manual and time-consuming system maintenance and setups. In addition, I have trained two full-scale robots that are now 1) posting and loading journal entries in our ERP system and 2) processing manual data updates for our patient database.
