UiPath Enterprise Platform Product Review
- User-friendly interface. It is very easy to get UiPath expert. The only mantra is getting your hands dirty and you will be a guru of it in no time.
- I believe UiPath Academy is well organized to get you started with the RPA.
- ReFramework was a bit confusing at first for me, but once I got my feet dirty in there and it's pretty useful in there.
- Excel Addins disappears while I use Excel application scope, but it works fine if I use start process/job. It would be great if this issue gets resolved.

- It provides more control while dealing with Web Applications, Desktop Applications, VDI and Image-Based Automation on Citrix.
- Can be extended its scope on Mainframe Automation.
- GitHub Integration in order to maintain different repositories for different process.
- Implementing image-based automation is quite challenging especially when you are working on the Client network using VDI.
- There can be many more activities that need to be provided so it can be further enhanced.
- If not possible to give the activities, then at least provide some paid activities like Abby OCR when it comes to the Optical Character Recognition.
- They have recently rolled out a course which is having contents for automating salesforce application, but no automation is required when you use sales force for development.
- Extension to Linux based Applications.
- Security can be further enhanced by providing different activities rather than basic Typesecurestring in order to control logging at the verbose level.

Best RPA tool for beginners
- UiPath has an extremely active community on forums and social networks.
- UiPath has an extremely active community on forums and social networks. The tool is extremely simple to implement and start using.
- Anyone who does not have experience with programming or with RPA is able to sit down and develop skill early.
- The academy courses provide a good notion of using the tool and implementing the selectors and it is very well done. The ease of configuring the orchestrator is of great value.
- Unfortunately the price of UiPath licenses are a bit expensive for us as we are a small company.
- UiPath does not have as many activity options as its competitors and ReFramework, at first, is very difficult to completely master.

The tool that brought a new context to the RPA world!
- I liked the Step-Recording tool, very intuitive.
- I liked the workflow.
- I liked REFramework, it helps a lot in controlling logs.
- I liked the drag-and-drop interface, extremely simple and fast to use!
- The reading part of the PDF needs to be reviewed and the use of variables updated.
- The PDF reader should be reviewed. It has many bugs when trying to scan a PDF to the internet.

- Orchestrator: By using Orchestrator we can handle multiple robots and we can schedule the robots.
- Integration with ABBYY FlexiCapture - ABBYY is one of the best OCR vendors in the market.. UiPath is integrated with ABBYY and the results are very good.
- Computer vision activities: using computer vision activities we can automate Citrix environment easily.
- UiPath studio gets killed if its cached memory becomes 1 GB.

UI Path - A good choice for beginners & experts
- UiPath has user friendly interface for both studio and orchestrator.
- UiPath can easily integrate with multiple third party apps which makes it more sustainable where our automation needs to interact with apps like service now, twilio etc
- Installing and maintaining UiPath environment is quite an easy task and they work well both in open and behind firewall environments
- UiPath activities are so perfectly named that we do not have to look towards any guide for help
- UiPath have a good pre and after sales service where they provide all kind of help required based on your license subscription
- More integration options can be provided for PDF files
- The documentation of ReFramework is very confusing, although there is the Advanced Course of UiPath, where the focus is ReFramework itself. I believe this is the most difficult, since certification is mandatory in ReFramework, and it is the Framework indicated by the company for the solution of problems
- Whatever flows I develop using previous versions, it becomes little difficult to open the same in latest versions. We need to update all the package which was used earlier
- Pricing is bit aggressive compared to other but is manageable for the quality of software they provide.
- With latest versions some bugs are there, some features like "get visible text" is not reliable always. So always migrate to latest version after 2 or 3 months once the product is stabilized.
- Not many object or element tools for interacting with a legacy system of SAP or other ERP systems

RPA-Choose UiPath
- User Interface - It has the best user interface where anybody from any background can use this product.
- No coding is required - Almost all the activity you require are there in UiPath, if you need some more activity you require a minimal amount of coding.
- Your robot are always accurate, it doesn't make any mistakes.
- Your UiPath Robot can work 24/7 without any intervention.
- For many applications in finance and manufacture, we have to buy a partner product with UiPath.
- Pricing of UiPath is high.
- Integration to a new platform is difficult.

Ease of Use!
- One benefit I've noticed is the training modules. These modules have provided users with a good base of knowledge to create bots without any prior experience. This has made it very user-friendly which can be a concern when it comes to RPA platforms.
- Another benefit is the re-usability of the platform. We have been able to share bots amongst teams to use for clients with similar needs/processes with slight modifications. Similarly, teams have shared bots they have used to improve internal processes, usually PMO related.
- UiPath is a good platform for improving overall efficiency with PMO activities. It is based on Microsoft SharePoint workflow which makes the interface more familiar and my team has been able to use it to confirm the accuracy of travel expenses and client invoicing.
- UiPath can work to improve overall processing capabilities in terms of data. While I have not personally experienced it, other users within my company have had an issue in running a bot pulling information from multiple large data files. I believe UiPath is most likely working to improve this aspect.

"Best RPA tool to start with" - UiPath RPA
- Firstly, Web scraping - Data scraping became so easy after deploying UiPath. It provides various OCR engines to get through Scraping.
- Secondly, Excel Automation - It seems like UiPath studio is well suited for Excel automation.
- Thirdly, Remote Controlling - using Orchestrator you can easily invoke remote robots so as to get your work done on remote machine and working on current machine.
- We have deployed the technology since 6 mos. We are facing a major challenge in front of us. The invoice automation can only be done when the invoices are on website. Usually we fetch invoices from partner websites as PDF. Thus we are doing an extra work in scraping PDF.
- There is need of Screen Recording facility when performing robot activities. So that it is easy to debug when the robot gets stopped unexpectedly.
- When writing data to excel there should be an option to write the data one by one to excel file or inside a buffer table. Till now UiPath stores excel/table data first to a temporary table and then writes to excel/csv. There can be a case when you want to write the data directly to excel/csv. In other words, the data should be written real-time.

Lets move to path of automating UI
- Daily mundane tasks
- SLA bound tasks
- Complex executions
- You can access all databases directly on UiPath, so no need to install anything else.
- There are OCR engines and screen scrapping tools which helps a lot in automating tasks.
- There are new cognitives activity which can detect any selector which are often hard to detect.

Our RPA automations using Ui Path
- UiPath handles a lot of problems we are facing in Citrix environment like windows keys and commands.
- It is easy to read the text from Image, PDF using OCR engines like Google, Microsoft and results are accurate.
- We can also add our own DLL or NuGet packages in UiPath.
- For Web scraping, UiPath is the best solution. It gives you the result in few seconds.
- They could implement a find option in the workflow. It is very difficult to find the activities in the flowchart or sequence.
- Debugging, takes too much time. They could implement it how visual studio does it currently. If we put a break point, it should stop at that point. No need to show the process.
- Add option for adding own line of code inside a sequence.

UiPath: Easy to Develop and Perfect in Output
- RPA is an automation solution to your processes. It does very well in the domain where your work is too repetitive, time consuming, has mind numbing tasks, or tasks which are very well defined as a process.
- UiPath does very well when it comes to relationships. It helps your developers, way to well to clears all the domain knowledge by various ways.
- Designing in UiPath is good enough because of the great UX and interactive designing studio.
- UiPath has various platforms to connect with people.
- You may have difficulty when working with unstructured data in UiPath.
- I had problems a few times when developing a solution in a web browser. You can't just rely on one browser, as there can be compatibility issues.
March 28, 2019
An Intuitive tool
- Ease of use. It's very intuitive to use, so pretty much anyone can automate their own process (as long as it is relatively simple).
- Fast. You can have a flow running in a day.
- The predefined activities make it easy to drag and drop building blocks for a process. Just set the parameters and you're good to go.
- The academy is free which gives you the opportunity to check it out and get comfortable with it without having to spend a lot of money.
- The community really helps. Most questions you have are already answered (and if not, support is excellent).
- Support generally answers within a day and keeps checking up with you to make sure a solution was reached.
- Even though it is easy to use, programming a robot that can be used by different persons requires a lot more skills. It is not as easy as they make it seem
- Getting to know UiPath with the Robot/Studio/Orchestrator components can be quite complicated and challenging. Fortunately there is the academy, but still not easy
- The different license models are not clear.
