Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Scalability is fine. It is pretty nice.""Most of the details are already in the help portal and SAP notes are available. It is well documented as part of the product support.""It is remarkably easy to configure and code, and it doesn't require an extensive technical background or coding expertise.""The most valuable feature of SAP Contextor is that everyone is in one place in the program that I need.""The initial setup of SAP Contextor is easy.""The standout features of SAP Intelligent RPA are its flexibility and integration capabilities.""Contextor is a good solution for a Citrix environment. It's the first with this tool. Other tools provide the same functionality, but not with the Citrix environment."

"The best feature of UiPath is that it is easy to use. UiPath Orchestrator is also easy to use.""I've contacted technical support many times and they are very helpful.""It allows us to extract valuable information from various documents, categorize them based on their types, and make the data within these documents usable for our needs.""The most valuable feature is the ability to extract structured data, as this is an essential part of the bots that we create.""With UiPath, development is easy because they have their own Studio. We just run UiPath Studio, drag and drop the components that we require, and connect all the dots. When we're doing website automation or web app automation, we can use their UI-based Studio and grab the elements from the web application using XPath, which makes the development easier.""The most valuable feature is definitely the document understanding.""Orchestrator has a lot of good features including the configuration, the queues, the transaction reporting, the logs, and accessibility.""I like the UiPath Orchestrator. The Marketplace is also helpful because there are pre-built automations we can use."

Cons
"I found that the SAP scripting of a program is easier than SAP Contextor.""SAP Contextor could improve by automating some processes.""I would like to see a better capacity for unstructured data, for example, PDF, or text within images.""The initial setup is of medium complexity. It is neither too hard nor too simple. You need some background in SAP and an understanding of it.""One way SAP Intelligent RPA could improve is by integrating built-in DI services for document processing.""There should be more of an error, like a proper error feature, in future releases. Sometimes, we don't understand why that automation is not learning what, like, where it is stuck, or what is the reason like, or what is the criteria we are missing to add. So a proper error message would be helpful.""For potential features or improvements, one aspect I would suggest enhancing is the flexibility of the extraction process."

More SAP Intelligent RPA Cons →

"One area that could be improved is how we access the UiPath Academy courses.""It would be very helpful for us if they provided more business use cases and helped us to learn them.""The upgrade process could be improved so that it does not require download and reinstall.""Governing components in the solution, such as the Orchestrator, and configuring the robots should be easier. The vendor should also come up with more offerings or features involving AI.""There can be technical issues, but it's rarely about a server quitting. They are more like connectivity, platform, and software version issues, but there are no issues with UiPath performance.""It needs to be easier to use with more low code.""We're actually looking into a document to understand the use case. It's essentially car titles, and we're struggling. We've used several different OCR engines to try to train the model and try to improve it. For us, a little more direction on how to actually achieve this would be useful. We've been struggling for a couple of months now trying to get it working and getting it to the level we need it.""We've tried to use test automation, however, I'm not sure how well it works."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This is not a tool or software with a license as others are. The SaaS model is based on the usage of the tool."
  • "The initial cost might seem higher, but over time, with continued use over five or ten years, the cost tends to decrease, making it a more economical choice."
  • "The pricing is not that expensive. It is manageable."
  • "It all comes with a bundle right now. Having advanced features, it is competitively priced."
  • More SAP Intelligent RPA Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "It costs much less and it does much more than the competitors' solutions."
  • "The pricing differs on the requirements. If there is a huge purchase, then we get a discount. There is not a fixed pricing of the product."
  • "If you want to do a demo trial, it is a 30 days free."
  • "The community edition is completely free. Then, people say, "There is nothing to lose, let me try it.""
  • "There are operational benefits in terms of time savings and user satisfaction of not having to do menial, repetitive tasks."
  • "Traditionally, Automation Anywhere and Blue Prism are the biggest things competing against UiPath. Those are usually what most of the clients lean towards, if they see a cheaper licensing option. Clients choose UiPath because it's easier to deploy and learn within their teams."
  • "We saw ROI in 15 days."
  • "They give it away in the community edition for free, so I use it at home."
