We performed a comparison between Blue Prism Cloud 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."Ability to see the blueprint of the design executed alongside the actual process."
"The ease of building automation and the development environment"
"We can save on staff costs by automating processes."
"This solution comes with a lot of good features."
"I would say that the stability of Blue Prism is superior to any of the competing products because of the maintainability of the features and the openness of the tool."
"It is more secure for complex implementations."
"The platform is user-friendly and easy to learn in a low-code environment."
"It is an easily scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature that we are using is UiPath Apps because it makes it very easy to implement tasks."
"It is very stable."
"The eagerness of UiPath engineers and their salespeople to help us along the process has helped us align ourselves more with UiPath."
"There are a lot of powerful box components with the possibilities of creating your own."
"UiPath is a no-code automation tool that saves me a lot of time when developing workflows."
"This ability to customize what we need has really opened up opportunities to automate programs that otherwise would not work properly."
"One feature that is particularly very likable is the My Workspace option under the Orchestrator menu. We can easily arrange and/or segregate all the folders there. The My Workspace option has been a very big positive for me. I've been able to streamline my work and do structured work with this My Workspace option."
"I like UiPath's framework. It offers a modern design experience, which makes it easy to do different activities."
"Lacking advance features like CIO and optical character recognition"
"Pricing for Blue Prism Cloud is a pain as it's a little higher."
"Having more AI functionality would be an improvement."
"There are a few smart services that are not available in Blue Prism. For example, Excel sheets that are converted into a CS sheet have limitations with the number of columns when imported. This could be improved."
"They should work on the solution's pricing."
"The AI part is currently missing in Blue Prism Studio... It would be good if the AI part is included in Blue Prism Studio, which can make it much more efficient and good to work."
"Blue Prism should adopt a low-code approach. Most RPA vendors only provide what they call a "form builder." A low-code designer would enable us to build a custom UI."
"I believe they need to become more competitive within the market in order to maintain their market share. We were essentially a Blue Prism shop and sold Blue Prism, but because of the price point, many clients are now looking at competitors."
"The Academy classes could be improved. There should be a portal for use cases. There should be more business examples."
"One area for improvement is connected to the fact that it's completely based on Visual Basic .NET and C# languages. I would like to see some more basic activities that are particular to the VB.NET code, as well as activities based on LINQ queries because that is one of the fastest and most integrated languages. I would like to see pre-written activities so that we could simply drag and drop them into place and use them frequently."
"Governance has room for improvement but that's more of a cultural thing. It depends on your company. We have the reference architecture that we have in place, but it's easy for someone to say, "Okay, I need to make an adjustment here outside of that reference architecture." Because it's so easy for them to do that, they leave the company now that a non-compliant bot is out there running a production process, we need to be able to rank that in. There needs to be footwork that we have to do as an organization for my team as opposed to a true problem with the platform."
"Some of our employees also use MacBook devices for their daily work, mostly for high-graphic projects. UiPath doesn't have a complex set of features for OS X systems. If they could add more complex features for MacBooks, that would be good."
"The support provided by UiPath could be improved."
"It could improve the service by resolving the bugs and providing the fixes as soon as possible."
"AI and ML need further improvements to reach mature status."
"OCR-based activities should be improved to handle larger amounts of text."
