Overall Satisfaction with UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform

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.
  • Definitely a positive impact on the company & management.
  • It added a new capability for us to showcase & demo to our clients.
The scope of UiPath is uncomparable to the scope of Automation Anywhere (AA). For simple automation, we can use AA but when the process becomes medium to high complexity, then AA doesn't have all features/functionality to develop it. Selector concept is very weak in AA. It's difficult to play with Selectors in AA. Excel handling is slow when writing a 100 rows (it will write by cell after cell). In UiPath, we have data table variables through which we can directly write it in Excel in one go.
I gave 10 rating because whenever we get trouble in technically, solutions are readily available in the UiPath forum. Even if it is not already in the UiPath forum, you can post a question and there are many UiPath enthusiasts who respond very quickly with quality solutions. This, I feel, is vital for development.

Yes

Would you buy UiPath Automation Platform again?

It is suitable for weekly or daily tasks which we need to do to ensure quality. Using RPA & task scheduling we won't miss these tasks since bots will execute it automatically without errors and without missing anything. Not suitable if the task is not so frequent & very tedious to develop using UiPath Studio. There have been many automation bots that I spent hours developing but were not used at all.
