Overall Satisfaction with UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform

UiPath is being used for report generation and downloads of reports from specific databases and to process that information on Excel and send email to customers or users. It's also used for validating XML files that are encrypted for processing banking transactions.
  • Working over client websites
  • Applications on desktop
  • Working on databases like Oracle, SAP, Microsoft Access, etc.
  • Works very well on executing queries or using macros or scripts.
  • The new GUI is very clumsy.
  • The older version of universal search was good.
  • The complete flow is very difficult to be seen, unlike other tools.
  • Need to improve OCR reading and other screen recording wherein a few times it's been unstable.
  • Orchestrator queues do not have much information.
  • Positive impact: reduced the manual work to a great extent.
  • Reduced the employee count from 10 to 2 in a few departments.
  • The business gained profits because of very few investments and getting maximum returns.
  • Negative impacts were none.
UiPath is very easy to learn and use for beginners in RPA, while other tools require training on how to work in a particular application using the tools. UiPath is good for self-teaching and materials are easily available over the internet with use cases wherein a few can be applied in real-time cases as well.
The tool is very handy and since this reduces a lot of manual work for the users and ROI is more, this tool is highly preferable. One rating less is for the features that can still be improved in the tool.

UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform is very well suited for web-based and database-related processes. VBA or macros work perfectly. Requires a new version of Python to use scalabilities and cognitive methods. Needs more improvement in terms of working over desktop applications or Citrix.
