"I can use it as a library by importing Python scripts, allowing me to access its many features while working with coding."
"The ability to create separate organizations on this platform makes it easier to bill each of the clients separately."
"Robocorp is based on Python, so you can use Python scripts and create libraries for your use cases. Building libraries and custom scripts for a particular client and general use cases is easy. We can reuse those scripts for other clients, so we start seeing benefits quickly."
"The product has a valuable business process automation feature."
"It offers high scalability and enables automation in ways that haven't been possible before."
"As a developer, I found it easy to integrate third-party applications with Robocorp. I have previous experience with Selenium, and I found the Robocorp framework to be accessible because it uses Python and Selenium keywords."
"It's easy to deploy bots via the API helper in Control Room. Robocorp's debugging features are also robust. It shows you a lot of data."
"It supports Python runtime because of that, runtime also improves."
"They have recently come up with new features, like Document Understanding and AI fabric, which we have also started to use. These are helping us a lot with unstructured data extraction from invoices.... This is a great feature which is built-in."
"The APIs are very effective in building workflows."
"The ability to recognize screen elements and their robot technology are both very valuable features."
"UiPath's most valuable features are automation and document understanding."
"It helps mitigate the risks. With traditional native active directory delegation, it becomes real messy, real fast. You lose oversight on who has access where. We are an acquisition merger company, so we let go of certain companies and onboard new ones. With native delegations, you lose track on who has access where. With Active Roles, we can always see who has access and what they can do in a very granular way."
"It offers me various benefits such as AI capabilities and works very well for me on all types of processes. It makes our tasks easy and provides accurate results."
"The democratization, automation, and attended automation, all of these are pretty good features. Those are all good value add to what it was there previously."
"I'm not worried about the stability of the product. If others are using it in the cloud with much more complicated processes than we are automating, it's not really a concern of mine."
"The standard libraries in Robocorp should be more advanced."
"We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities."
"It would be better if it were more user-friendly for non-technical users. It would be better if they had some drag-and-drop features to create logic."
"I don't like the complexity of deployment."
"The deployment process is complex and not straightforward, especially for legacy modernization."
"There are certain libraries in Python, such as those dealing with PDF automation and word files, that require the presence of certain external dependencies in the environment to be successfully used."
"We use the latest version of the process studio and it takes up a lot of CPU storage. In our case, this has been up to 14 GB of storage."
"Robocorp is still in development, so most of the keywords are a bit confusing. I have to alter lots of automation steps between processing and development. However, Selenium is due for an update soon, and Robcorp is addressing some of the limitations caused by the previous Selenium version."
"There is a very steep learning curve for business users."
"Building automations can be a little complicated. There are so many variables and commands. We're also trying to integrate new technology like ChatGPT. Although ChatGPT has many APIs, they're not sufficiently integrated. If UiPath could add more API integration and tutorials in the academy, it would help us utilize them more effectively."
"They could make it more user-friendly."
"Creating a trigger that is based on either the arrival of a file or the arrival of an email is a common scenario and it should be built into the platform so that I don't have to code for it every time."
"It needs more integration with external services, and I would like it to have generative AI and more artificial intelligence features."
"I would like a better way to find the little things that aren't simply named."
"Many of the features that UiPath has are good, although better documentation is required for them."
"I would like UiPath to have an offline mode where we can continue to work when there are maintenance issues."
