Overall Satisfaction with UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform

We are a consulting company. We are provided with third-party processes and decide on how to proceed, automation-wise. Generally speaking, most of our clients are looking to automate processes in order to be more efficient and maybe use their human resources elsewhere. Of course, in theory, you can automate almost everything, but we make our recommendations in terms of efficiency, time earned, and ROI. However, this is just one of the things that we do as a company, as we also work on other solutions apart from automation.
  • Simple processes that include clicking and inputting.
  • Interaction with virtual machines through Citrix automation.
  • Good integration with third-party tools and libraries.
  • Also suitable for automating larger processes that require more complicated workflows, though it can be a little tricky at times.
  • Activities like “element exists” and “on element appear” are not always reliable. An element could exist but not be visible, so when you try to interact with it, you may encounter errors even when using additional parameters.
  • Some times the platform is not smart enough to wait before doing a specific activity.
  • The error handling could be better in my opinion.
  • Great platform to suggest for third-parties.
  • Orchestrator license is somewhat expensive for others to buy.
  • It gives us the possibility to do automation and make other companies more efficient.
  • Last but not least, if combined with other state-of-the-art technologies, the results can be amazing.
UiPath is one of the most known RPA platforms. The difference among others is that they spend a lot of money on research and improving in order to offer a beautiful solution. Other than that, as I haven’t really used anything else, I can’t provide other solid information or comparisons.
In general, regarding a straightforward process, and let’s say a simple process, UiPath is ideal. It can cope with more complicated ones as well of course. However, when a process requires to act upon a specific element appearance, for example, it feels somewhat more error-prone and time-consuming.
