Automate Repetitive Processes easily with UiPath

3.0 3 years ago

Comments: I like the low-code environment that is easy for both beginners and experts in the field to learn. Very intuitive, UiPath Studio is an application, not a web application, so it's much faster and more stable than other low-code tools such as Oracle Integration Cloud. Great online learning through the UiPath Academy, perfect for those new to UiPath or RPA. Easy to hear and very informative. Also, it does not take forever to understand or understand. UiPath Go and third-party support are very helpful in creating automation, as it's likely that someone has already done the same. Automation is open source, so it's very easy to get started. The easy-to-use orchestrator allows you to deploy your robot with minimal stress, and switching from a DEV environment to a PROD environment is very easy.

Pros:

Data scraping is accurate and extracts the data completely. Excel automation makes it easy to format your data as needed. UiPathGo offers many custom activities such as chatbots and vision automation to help you integrate your application with UiPath. No other tool offers such a possibility. The recording performance is excellent. In particular, both desktop recording and web recording work very well.

Cons:

Extracting data from an iframe is difficult, but still possible. It's a good idea to provide an Ubuntu version of the UiPath Enterprise RPA platform.

Best Automation Tool

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: Business Problems i am solving with UiPath are:
Mail Monitoring, Accessing SAP, Sending the mails, etc.
My Overall experience in using UiPath:
It is very easy to learn. we can find the course content in the UiPath Academy, where the course is free of cost.
The content of the course is also very good. There are Hands On practice session also.
If you are new to Automation, i suggest you to learn UiPath. In UiPath we can find More number of opportunities in the IT field. It is an emerging technology now a days.

Pros:

The User Interface is awesome and colourful. The automation field is on the whole new level because of this Product. The Bot scheduling in the Orchestrator is very simple. The Bot creation is very good and simple, a new user can create a Bot in just one day. In this product we can find a wide range of activities, we can use all the activities for to complete the Bit creation in less time. The Packages is also helpful in developing the Bot in very less time. We can publish our bot, so other users can use our bot from Packages.

Cons:

I have used UiPath for 8 months, I found there are two issues. One is the desktop recording, if i created a bot using the Desktop recording and published. then if some one downloaded it and trying to use it it is not working in another system. the issues is with the screen resolution. This need to fixed as soon as possible. the another issue is with the selectors, after creating the bot, the selector issue arising. so i make that one as Dynamic selector, then also the bot can't find the selector in web page.

A device created to help organisations ride the automation wave.

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: This is the market leader in RPA tools, therefore adding their own tools rather than working with partners would be grade achievement at all costs. I will propose this programme as an RPA expert for any RPA activities besides cognitive automation, such as unstructured data extraction from PDFs.

Pros:

The Interface is really simple to use. The programme is not difficult to use and can be used to automate workflows in a few of days. The orchestrator is the tool's true crowning achievement.

Cons:

Setting up a process flow diagram with separate UI windows for each activity would require too much scrolling.

Transforming Hardwork to Smartwork

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: We have automated a complete labour contract amendment process where the effort saving is 300+ hours it is now done within a maxmimum of 2-3 hours , previously it was so much manual work,the process involves bulk uploading, taking screenshot changing status in a website and activating the same finally deleting in bulk in addition to it the Db is also updated with the count and status of all these separate activities, all these activities are created as a single workflow and we will schedule the same based on demand . it has reduced a great manual effort.we were able to explore many areas in uipath while implementing this usecase it was a nurturing learning experience and it is successfully up and running in production environment it got us unique recognition among leadership.

Pros:

The best about this software is all the time consuming mundane recurring activities can be converted in to a simple workflow one time after which it is the robot that takes care of it, and even in case of any error we can set proper messages and notifications,Apart from this all the basic activities are already inbuilt as packages and it also allows us to embed with new packages which are updated with new versions,overall it is an interesting and awesome learning experience.

Cons:

We got to watch out for the updates every now and then because all the activity components are interlinked with versions and if there is an upgrade the existing version of our workflow may not work as expected, initially faced this challenge but there is a community forum for uipath where all these problems are addressed and sorted out.

The realest all-in-one automation software with powerful capabilities

4.0 3 years ago

Comments: I am a bit skeptical when it comes to all-in-one automation software. I find that they could not be powerful as much as separated tools with integrations. However, UiPath has proven me wrong. I love that this tool has a global reach with powerful comprehensive capabilities to automate the tedious tasks that I need to complete, and even find more tasks to simplify the operation workflow by finding opportunities from user-interactions and log files from ERPs, UiPath Platform has made my it much easier and has also provided me with all the necessary insights about the work that I do. The best part about UiPath is that it is a relatively inexpensive tool that is worth every penny.

Pros:

My favorite part of UiPath is the Marketplace and the amount of the ready-to-work templates for seamless automations without coding knowledge, Basic or complex processes, the market place is rich with different use-cases and workflows to automate time-consuming tasks so I can focus on the things that matter. I have been using UiPath for many years for my own work, the agency I work for and their clients, I cannot imagine my the operation without it. This software has made it easier to manage the entire operation for the clients seamlessly with insightful visualizations from different departments in a single dashboard. It allows me to have virtual meetings, keep track of my projects, and manage my team. UiPath has helped me and my team to take our business to the next level and to easily manage and monitor a good number of clients with different niches in various industries and I strongly recommend it for marketing agencies, sales and service companies too.

Cons:

Quite frankly, the last time I didn't like anything about UiPath was when it occasionally froze due to some commands too complex for me to understand. By the way, compatibility with third-party tools isn't always smooth especially when we have to reconfigure several processes by ourselves for new tasks if we couldn't find them. My experience has been mostly positive though because I didn't really have any other serious problems. In fact, at the agency I work for, UiPath handles many operations and large amount of files and automates them in a simple way, among many other options that are truly beneficial to us as a whole, no doubt about that.

Orchestrator is another good option where uipath give you a platform to manage your environment virtually as well. Triggers, assets, Queues, Job all are defined on it very efficiently, Upgrade is very smooth we never face any down time since from we are using it. computer vision if one of the good option to capture all the details which you want. OCR for data extraction there are many thing in it which are outstanding.

Cons:

Mobile application is very hard to use and there are many feature which are missing
