We performed a comparison between Kryon RPA and UiPath based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The number of commands it gives us to edit and modify is really good. It also captures screen activities and plays them back."
"I like Kryon RPA's ability to use automated and manual processes with any bot."
"We have been using Kryon Process Discovery for about a year now. With our initial tests and monitoring just a couple people, we were able to identify 79 possible use cases within a one-month period."
"The friendliness of the software is good because people without any technical background can start off on it. This solution makes it easy for us to use it, as there is no learning curve. With no learning curve, the development time turnaround decreases."
"The most valuable features for our organization are the automatic processes which save main power in the back office."
"The user-friendly environment allows for easy learning, and the end-to-end workflow management is excellent."
"Once I decide a process is suitable as a Kryon solution, the cycle of automation is quite quick. I learn about the manual process and I'm one of the two guys who program the Kryon environment. It's relatively simple. There are many details, but once you understand the concept it is quite easy."
"The bot is typically about twice as fast as a person and more accurate, as long as the data going in is good. That is the biggest advantage."
"UiPath has good recording features that help to create automations."
"It is a very simple tool to work with for anybody. Simplicity is the best in UiPath. It also has the best community support. If we are looking for any solution, we can directly reach out to UiPath at any point in time."
"UiPath handles the infrastructure, maintenance, and updates as a managed service, and that means we don't have to take care of those things. All future updates and enhancements are managed by them."
"UiPath's support for various types of interfaces is the most valuable feature as it aids in automating the end-user systems we want to streamline."
"UiPath allows people to do more value-added work. I found that we were able to take a person well versed in access programming and convert them to be an RPA developer with relative ease."
"When we would have a huge backlog, we would hire short-term employees for some of our cases. Now, we don't have to do that anymore."
"The ability to recognize screen elements and their robot technology are both very valuable features."
"The processes are accurate. We see very few errors once they are implemented."
"Kryon RPA's integration with other solutions could be more seamless."
"Another major drawback is OCR. We are not able to read scanned documents correctly in a reliable way. There is always some margin of error. Some of the processes require us to read scanned documents, and you need to ensure that it is 100 percent accurate. Without that level of assurance, you can't automate such tasks."
"When a project is very big, a lot of memory is taken up. Then, machines don't have enough memory. This could be improved upon to be more efficient."
"The only unstable part is Studio where you build this stuff. In our version, the 5.25. It has a memory leak. If you leave it open for too long, eventually it just freezes. Saving your work, closing, and opening it just once a day is all it takes. However, this is a bug that I have noticed about the stability of the actual tool."
"Often, it's difficult to loop through a large data set unless the bot has access to the Excel file with specific settings and shortcodes."
"It could be more reliable in spying HTML."
"Kryon could be easier to use, especially in comparison to UiPath."
"We need stronger governance to know, when a transaction is done, whether it worked or failed; strong logging. That would be helpful."
"The community version of UiPath has a limited feature set, which can make it challenging for users to fully explore its capabilities without purchasing the enterprise version."
"It's really hard for me to get all the machine learning and AI parts. I think maybe that's going to get a little bit easier for me to understand how to really use it in the company. I don't really know what to do with it at the moment. I think that is something that could be improved."
"Studio needs to be more user-friendly, maybe it could be integrated with an AI."
"The community can be increased and enhanced. That way, if we are facing an issue and need an easy solution, we can then use the community."
"Its price is high compared to many other tools. When we go for any additional capability, everything comes at additional pricing. As a package, they can provide something that helps with scalability in terms of bot addition."
"Every time, when we have upgraded, except for the last time, we have struggled. We did not do it right once. We always had to retry, get some support with it, and the documentation was a little lagging. Therefore, we really struggled with upgrading. It's getting a lot better now, but this has been one place where we have struggled."
"One area that could be improved is how we access the UiPath Academy courses."
"However, challenges arise when attempting to automate multiple VPN connections."
