UiPath honest review.
One thing that I enjoy about UiPath is the UI. It is clean and elegantly designed. It is very easy to find activities and place them on my work area. Also when I am opening workflow files that has dependency issues, UiPath Studio automatically recognizes them and allow me to download the required packages automatically thus saving me time. I also wish PDF activities could be made more intuitive and data from PDF could be read in a better way. Maybe this is something which I have to learn to do.
UiPath has indeed been very instrumental in increasing my productivity without me having to do much.
UiPath is much better than other RPA tools as it is very easy to understand and implement.
- UiPath Studio user interface.
- UiPath web and screen recorders.
- UiPath community.
- Getting data from PDF files.
- Reading tables from webpages.
- Making gmail integration standard.

A fantastic beginning into the RPA world
We are still early into our UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform journey, but UiPath has helped us become better equipped in the rapidly growing world of RPA. Not only is UiPath constantly updating their platform to make development and organization even easier but they also have elite customer service for those early into their RPA journey. I have never worked with a company that would go out of their way as much as they have to make sure their software is being useful and helping us develop our own enterprise standards. They also seem to be the industry leaders when it comes to RPA platforms at the time of this writing.

Automate? Go for UiPath
We have been using UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform to automate all the eligible processes to reduce human efforts. The processes are mainly those that don’t require human intervention or require little human intervention. I am not sure about the whole organization, but surely it’s being used in our project. It mainly reduces repetitive tasks being done by humans. Automating such tasks has helped us in streamlining our work.

A RPA Tool that empowers it users to build automations with a relatively low learning curve.
UiPath is used primarily for its RPA tool and Cloud Orchestrator, which makes it a good tool to use for our cloud environment.
It is being used across the organisation to realise efforts within the company, as well as for the company's clients.
We've helped realise over 10,000 hours of efforts for our clients, which help in utilising resources for more serious or important work that requires complex strategies/human interference and is not rule-based. This allowed the employees to work on deliverables instead of mundane and repetitive tasks.
Apart from conventional RPA, it also supports API consumption and BAPI usage, which opens the developer to whole world of possibilities in implementing and designing a solution that is going to realise the maximum efforts with the least risk of failure.

Excellent RPA tool for marketing - it is easy to understand, with almost no coding required.
UiPath RPA has helped me to analyze the online market of sporting goods in Bulgaria. As an importer of Kiddimoto's sporting goods, it is important for me to have an excellent view of the competitor's goods and prices. With some easy to use features, UiPath helped me to gain useful information automatically.

Learn UiPath RPA, Get certified, Master the RPA industry
First thing first, UiPath is a golden tool for us. Our mainstream work covers the data scraping and organizing the data. Earlier we used to scrape the data with Python (Specially BeautifulSoup). It was quite a lengthy process. One had to understand the python scrips and logic which were scraping data. Hardly we have 2-3 staff for that. Python took a long time to scrape any required information. In python, you have to transform logic each time something changes to a webpage. Now as we have implemented UiPath RPA, our whole team is more than happy. we have changed the working technology from the root. We now have a team of 10 people and all have a beginner to advanced level of knowledge. All are at least Level 2. We all are dedicated to our work and leave no loops which tamper our image. Even our junior interns can make good scraping workflows. Our main problem was to scrape twitter hashtags and data related to that. Earlier it took a whole day to scrape 10000 tweets with python, in contrast, we can do that in very less time. We generally scrape data from Twitter and TripAdvisor to generate positive and negative reviews for our partner firms.
- "One tool to master Data scraping": If your organization's main goal is to achieve data from internet and social media (like us) then focus on UiPath. There are very fine and crafted specific tools are available for data scraping in UiPath RPA. Initially, if you go for Python, you will end up wasting time. You will get a small result after brainstorming too much. Rather using UiPath you can select tags or HTML words just like you inspect element in your browser.
- "UiPath OCR APIs": You can not get a platform where you have OCR APIs at one place. You can have Google OCR, Microsoft OCR and ABBYY Reader plugins in the tool. If you face output problems with One OCR you can switch to another anytime. There is always a need for OCR when you do PDF Scraping or Screen Scraping. So why not go for UiPath rather than having multiple OCRs in your system.
- "Automation at its best": I am a user of Selenium from Linux. Though you cannot compare both yes, Selenium does some sort of automation for the web. You don't have to code anything in UiPath. If you are good enough with your Software Engineering skills (Like flow charts, DFDs etc) you are good to go. Not many prerequisites.
- Yes, REFramework needs some more level of understanding. UiPath Academy must give video tutorial for ReFramework on their Academy. REFramwork is very good, fault tolerant practice was given by UiPath which requires a good level of understanding the concepts.
- UiPath RPA should have a Linux package so that Linux users can too use this tool. Ubuntu support of this tool will add a new dimension of Automation.
- UiPath does not provide on-screen log system. Logging the automation step by step like a log manager will add a developer mode to the workflow. It'll be easy to debug the process.

UiPath - One solution for ALL your problems.
We are utilizing UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform in many different areas at TeamHealth. HR, Payroll, Compliance, etc. We have used it to automate manual payroll processes that take up a lot Payroll Specialist time every run. We have also implemented this throughout a variety of other genres. We are currently developing an onboarding app that will use RPA to help ensure the process is completed smoothly.
- Excel operations
- Transaction Items Processing
- UI could be a little better

UiPath Enterprise RPA Review
It is being used currently by multiple departments to automate support jobs which include desk jobs, monitoring processes, and assisting users in solving tickets by processing their requests through ITSM tools such as ServiceNow and BMC Remedy. It has a wider application across SAP processes that include a lot of rule-based business processes that also depend on the users' input.
- Automation of any application built on latest technology
- The ability the automate even legacy applications
- The selectors need to be more reliable
- AI incorporation is highly anticipated

Best RPA platform in the market
In my organization, UiPath is being used by the application development team to deliver process automation for both internal departments and external clients. We have been developing bots for our various Internal departments like Finance, WFM, etc. using UiPath efficiently and in a cost-effective way. Similarly, for the client projects, UiPath has been very useful in order to develop robust and stable bots with efficiency and accuracy. This has also been very cost-effective.
- Good for developing, managing and monitoring bots across different machines, VMs and cloud platform as well
- It is cost effective
- It needs to enhance more AI and cognitive capabilities
- It needs some improvement in OCR automation

It's a good RPA tool, and it's relatively easy to learn to automate your business processes.
UIPath Enterprise RPA Platform is used very limitedly in our organization primarily by the testing department so they can automate things. Being able to automate business processes, and the testing of them, creates opportunities for employees to focus on the really important stuff instead of the tedious repetitive work.
- It's quick to start up with, and one of the easiest tools in the market.
- Great documentation (you need it).
- There is a learning curve, but that is inherent with these kind of products.
- There could be more languages supported, but that is a minor issue.

Thoughts after a few months using UiPath
We have only been using UiPath as a business for a few months at this stage, and we are currently using UiPath for our IT Service Desk and Operations teams. The scope will be expanding further in the new year. It gives us the ability to be more competitive and reduce costs.
- The suite of tools is great. Each of the different tools available has a purpose and provides benefits.
- The reusability of components means that development time can be reduced as you go.
- StudioX needs more functionality
- Developing using Studio is more complex than I initially expected it to be

Bored of doing repetitive tasks? Learn UiPath and play with bots.
We used it to automate repetitive work that we used to do regularly in Excel sheets (i.e. getting the excels from two different machines, pivoting/sorting out the data based on the conditions, and creating a final file to send via email). We also used it to write the data into PeopleSoft from Excels every week (which we used to enter manually). Lastly, it's used to submit timesheets, read the screenshots using python tesseract and write the data into excel. It's then compared with another excel to approve the timesheets by managers.
- It helped us reduce the manual effort.
- It also reduced the number of errors that came from manual entry.
- We need an activity to create a pivot table of the data in Excel that is not in the tabular format.

UiPath - The best RPA platform to date.
It is being used across the whole organization for data entry. Automated data entry in our legacy app frees up the users to use our new app and rely solely on it instead of having to transfer or do everything twice. Daunting and recurring tasks for humans become easy thanks to RPA. We decided to use UiPath thanks to its stability, reputation, and ease of use and orchestration.
- Automate tasks in attended or unattended mode.
- Will help client companies grow and be more productive.
- Video recording by queue item instead of job could be really helpful.
- Compatibility between versions of Orchestrator and Studio.

UiPath RPA Review
We use it for a large amount of data filling for test data creation in our testing department. We use it to gather information in a structured format from public websites for HR purposes. Mostly these are one time actions but the volume of data handled is heavy. We also use it to submit weekly timesheets by the team members.
- OCR scanning is very fast.
- Reading structured data using data scraping.
- Package a .xaml file as exe file to run directly.
- Apart from drag and drop, would like the ability to write code along with Intellisense.
UiPath Enterprise RPA platfrm is being used as a process improvement solution by my organisation. It is being used across the organisation where our department is the hub and provides end to to end solutions and services for the same. We are using it to automate various processes in Finance, Human Resources, and Information Technology departments which are repetitive in nature or which require a high level of accuracy.
We have also deployed OCR based technologies to achieve the same in invoice processing and have developed end to end solutions for the same. This has helped our organisation in reducing overhead and improved the accuracy in our daily processes.
- OCR based Use Cases
- Citrix based Use cases (remote desktop based scenarios)
- Debugging capabilities could be improved by providing more flexible options to users
- More options for multi threading/running background processes

The best RPA tool in the market
Our team is composed of 4 developers and one project manager. We have been using UiPath for almost a year already since we are starting to build RPA as a new service line here in our company. We mostly automate finance processes because it has the most number of processes that are repetitive and time-consuming. One example is the Accounts Payable Invoice Processing. We are integrating ABBYY with UiPath to easily extract the necessary information from the invoice straight to an Oracle System. With this, staff can focus more on value-added tasks such as the customer experience.
- There is a Community Edition
- UiPath Connect, Forum, Academy, and Go
- Detailed information on activities
- Easier dragging and dropping of activities

UiPath Tool for RPA Implementation
UiPath is being used to automate mundane processes on the operations side mostly. It creates invoices automation on AS400 systems as well as automations for our desktop application and web-based portals. It handles excel activity efficiently.
- It handles Excel application very well
- Citrix application
- AS400 64 bit system
- Google Spreadsheet, many elements change more frequently which decreases automation stability

UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform - Robots are the future
UiPath is used by the robotics department in my organization but it is helping throughout the organisation to automate our business, reduce employee efforts of doing repetitive tasks, and to utilize those precious hours in development instead.
- Integration with different technologies such as Python
- Use of Computer Vision which helps UiPath work properly in Citrix environment
- Most of the workflows fail when a system upgrade of an application occurs. There should be something that makes sure workflows work properly even after upgradation.
- PDF data extraction seems to be difficult.

UIPath Makes Automation Easy
We use UIPath in our organisation at the department level. Some departments use it to automate some of the applications. HR department used to filter the profiles and filter resumes for relevant candidates. The finance department uses it in their applications for invoice processing. IT Support team uses automation to process IT service requests.
Many business problems have been solved at our organisation to automate a lot of processes. Admin Rights access is now controlled by a bot. The request can be made by the employees and then access will be granted by bots.

UiPath - No. 1 RPA Player
We use it for automating business processes. It's our go-to platform for doing internal automation, although we also use other leading solutions. It's the best for simple, mindless copying of data between different systems.
- Allows for integration with systems where no API's available
- Easy to learn for new users
- Net could be replaced with more popular language
- Debugging could allow for variable value changes on the fly
