Overall Satisfaction with UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform
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.
Pros
- Central bot control through Orchestrator
- Windows automation (element selection and click/type simulation)
Cons
- The UiPath Studio could use some work. I've always wanted to be able to colorize the activity boxes as that would help make the structure of the workflow more easily visible.
- The Orchestrator Dashboard could also use some improvements. Being able to customize what we'd like to see on the landing page and what statistics to display would be good. Today, we had to build a different web app that displays custom statistical charts (hooked up to the Orchestrator API).
- With the license cost of UiPath, our team has become more stringent on the pipeline items that make it to the development stage (thereby increasing the chance of a better ROI).
UiPath's community version and diverse community forum comes to mind as big differentiators. The community version right off the bat gives you all the functionalities of the licensed version (even Orchestrator) and allows you to quickly do experiments and even production-level bots. The forum contains a treasure-trove of knowledge that's even way better that what Stack Overflow would provide.
