The summary above is based on 94 interviews we conducted recently with ABBYY Vantage and UiPath Document Understanding users. To access the review's full transcripts, download our report.
"The ability to extract and insert data, then structuralize it into the actionable format, would be the most valuable."
"The handwriting recognition is very good, as it can recognize handwriting done with pen and paper with at least 70% accuracy."
"The most valuable features have been the rate of recognition and the structured documents."
"We are able to extract details from a PDF and put them into a CSV. It is able to extract the details that we are looking for. We have the Machine Learning feature to extract the data with respect to the position of the field."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to capture data from documents with different formats."
"Allows us to run through documents and extract information."
"The solution has its own language that can be configured many ways and with higher accuracy than other products."
"It's easy to use."
"UiPath Document Understanding's image file extraction feature is the best in any OCR solution."
"UiPath provides a useful feature that allows us to classify documents as invoices or not."
"Invoice processing is the most valuable feature. Most of my customers use Document Understanding for invoice processing. That's one of the most common use cases. Typically, each customer starts their RPA journey with the finance department because that's the area where you can see the most benefit."
"I like the clear and organized way in which UiPath has structured the labeling process, as well as the user-friendly development environment."
"The scalability it offers is truly exceptional, making it arguably the best in the market."
"I found UiPath Document Understanding helpful in automating different types of processes. One process can be split into multiple processes or sub-processes. You can also use it for ID management or extracting data from IDs, such as passports or government-issued IDs, which I like."
"The quality of the input documents is crucial because sometimes healthcare providers prefer automated processing rather than human review."
"In UiPath Document Understanding, I use two extractors. One is the Intelligent Form Extractor and the other is the Machine Learning Extractor. The first one is very useful and user-friendly. When we have a single template or two to three templates, Intelligent Form Extractor is much easier to use. But if we have multiple templates, it's better to go with ML Extractor as you can train the model with different templates."
"Programming interfaces should include intelligence or documentation."
"The initial setup was relatively complex. The people who install it must be knowledgeable about what they are doing."
"I think that technical support should help instead of developing a solution from scratch every time you reach out to them."
"The recognition intelligence could improve by having more details in the documents. There are limitations with the forms, templates, and manuscripts."
"ABBYY Vantage is mainly available on the public cloud but for clients that use a private cloud, it is complicated to set up the solution."
"The generic models have a lot of areas to improve. In our experience, we are not able to get good results in the generic models. From a developer's point of view, there could be more improvement if the source code is available on a broader scope"
"ABBYY Vantage could improve the processing of handwritten notes."
"We would like the workflow building within this solution to be more transparent, which would allow us to model the process."
"Currently, we have to train multiple templates because the column size and row size change in each PDF."
"It would be much easier if UiPath increased the count of pages. Currently, they are allowing one million pages for $10,000 per month. I would prefer to increase the page count or reduce the dollar count in terms of processing the documents. I would prefer $6,000 per month for processing 2 to 3 million pages per month. It will then be much easier for companies with a low budget to use this product."
"At times, the scanning functionality of the tool may fail to generate accurate output, resulting in the need for manual input."
"UiPath Document Understanding has difficulty identifying handwritten documents, and there is room for improvement."
"The UiPath APIs lack reliable table parsing."
"Sometimes we have challenges when we need to read something like a barcode, so we must use the Cisco algorithm to solve the issue, or I have to ask developers for help specifically to capture this kind of information. There are other processes, such as refunds, that we still must do manually because there is no way to use automation to solve this issue."
"Existing models have room for improvement."
"UiPath Document Understanding can improve its handwriting and signature recognition."
