We used UiPath to automate some of the insurance processes within our department on Legacy platform, the basic idea behind using the UiPath RPA is to automate the day to day policy servicing processes. We have deployed the solution internally and it has greatly helped the team to streamline processes. We have used RPA to automate various claims and underwriting processes. It allows user to reduce the turn around time taken by business users for processing claims and underwriting which in tern reduce time to market meaning scrutiny of claims, underwriting, payouts etc. It is highly flexible tool as it can support a lot of data types and have a
lot of activities that work in the background.
- UiPath provides free trial version of both Community and Enterprise edition. UiPath provides free tutorials and documentations
- UiPath provides a strong, active and very helpful official community platform for clarifying doubts, sharing issues etc and has assigned an official team for providing support for the community users through this platform.
- UiPath is an easy to learn and use tool with a great user interface.
- Unlike other leading RPA tools UiPath provides a great user interface so that a person with minimum technical knowledge can understand the flow
- UiPath provides large number of activities which we can reuse as per our need just by changing the properties and parameters
- It provides the flexibility to create custom activities as per users need.
- UiPath provides the flexibility to use unattended robot without need of Orchestrator.
- UiPath orchestrator component is a very powerful tool which if utilized effectively can make the robot management and monitoring very easy.
- Business Process Automation for some of the financial processes which reduces time to market and efficiency. It also helped us reducing the cost and by doing automation repetative task needs lesser time.
- It reduces the time to market by automating the day to day business processes.
- Improved the speed of execution of process. The automated processes can be easily reused.
- It eliminates the human error where processes involves complex calculations, excel data consolidation etc.
- It also supports integrating with various tools which makes it highly flexible to use.
- User can record the processes which is also a important feature.
The other RPA tool which I used is Blue Prism, however comparatively Uipath is quiet user friendly and easy to learn and use. We can not use BP processes on Citrix/Virtual machines. Also Uipath has strong user community. Uipath also provides free trial community and enterprise edition for 30 days. UIpath is quite easy compared to other business process automation tools, it has a better UI and its more of a self explanatory tool.
