Overall Satisfaction with UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform

We are using UiPath in our insurance department. We provide solutions through UiPath when our client uses applications like SAP, Outlook, Excel, Computron etc. We use it to automate the insurance processes like cash applications, sending notices, and entering premium data in SAP applications.
  • Very easy to learn. People with minimum coding skills can learn and work in it.
  • It has a very good community. The community forum provides solutions to all problems very quickly. We've never had to stop or interrupt coding projects with the help of this forum.
  • A bit expensive if you're only looking to do smaller tasks.
  • Very poor at extracting data from PDFs or word documents. It would be great if extraction tools/engines like ABBY are included with it.
  • We failed to read the invoice data perfectly for one of our clients.
  • It would be great if we have the tools like ABBY included with UiPath RPA.
UiPath Academy helped us learn the tool quickly and easily, and it has very good community forums. The community version helped us explore the new activities and functionality easily. Managing the bots in Orchestrator is simple and Explorer helped to get the customized selectors to get the application to work properly.
They help developers learn about the tool by providing excellent videos in the academy portal. They post sessions regarding new activities and features so that we can be up to date with the different versions too.

UiPath is required when we are reading/scanning the body of emails, downloading attachments, reading subject lines, entering data and manipulating data in the excel applications. We also use it when we need to enter and manipulate data based on predefined rules in applications like SAP, Excel, Computron etc.

When we had to read the 250 types of invoice formats of one of our clients, we did not get the proper results using UiPath RPA.
