SS&C Blue Prism vs. UiPath Automation Platform

Blue Prism Intelligent RPA is well suited for the processes which are rules-based in nature. This software works well with web based application integrations. It's very easy to capture the object details and code the workflow with ease. The record functionally will do the trick most of the time and will save a lot of effort in coding the workflow. Work needs to continue in the surface automation part. It works with surface automation but there are chances of failure sometimes and we feel like the control of automation is very fragile.

UiPath Enterprise RPA is one of the most advanced robotic automation solution in the market and has capabilities lot more than a regular AI tool as it also take care of your unattended data and workflows equally efficient. This can be a very appropriate and useful tool for the organizations who have to go through management of set workflows and data in their routine business needs.

• Storing information from email in a standard data set
• Auto reply to emails tailored to the email so that it doesn't feel like a robotic or generalized response
• Workflow creation is simple and easy, the flow structure is easy to read and can be directly used in presentation to customers and management

• UiPath is actually easy to learn, the training material is effective and to the point. UiPath certainly has the capabilities to automate manual repetitive tasks that involve any platform, with a stronger preference for websites.
• There is room from improvement when dealing with Excel automation, but the solution is to create Excel macros and have the robot to call it, making it a great team solution.

• Object handling can be improved more and instead of going through each and every object to find its functionality it is hard and only the experienced BP tool user can understand.
• The identification of the elements can be improved much more with having useful details in place instead of only using the Indexes for the elements.
• In the environment variables pane, they can add some grouping facility to divide the variables in the environment variables section.
• Can improve the calculation stage for doing string operations using the VB commands instead of using code and inbuilt native functions to save time.

• Sometimes it is difficult to find the objects locators using UiPath especially on Legacy Platforms.
• The licencing cost per user is higher when compared to other RPA tools available in market.
• Non availability of maximize option in Property edit box, argument value edit box is another flaw.

This platform has so much potential and have been garnering a lot of attention by proving benefits in terms of saving operational and manpower costs. I am sure with minute efforts we were able to achieve our ROI and the same is the case with many of our customers whom we have been working around Digital Automation initiatives.

A very user-friendly workflow creation process. A dashboard to provide a full visibility of the workflow and processes. We're able to easily monitor ongoing, pending, stopped, error workflows and act swiftly when there was a red flag. Also implemented workflow approval process where task require multi-level approval for proper ISO documentation.

There are two main reasons with this rating 1. UiPath Automation Platform requires the old school type of Change Weather management, Which actually eats a lot of time to manage and roll out the recent changes. There is not something kind of CI/CD when you are developing the things With UiPath Automation Platform. 2. Very high development and maintenance cost, which actually decrease its usability.

Support is good and now with time online support in other forums is becoming available as well. Blue Prism support in itself is also good. Documents and blogs can help to find the solution. Since it's relatively new, sometimes if I'm stuck it can take time to find the solution or connect to their team.

UiPath RPA has an exceptional studio interface. It has been a year and so since I am using UiPath RPA. Whether it is some my personal task to scrape information & links from the Journal or find a specific character string from multiple PDF collection using OCR, UiPath RPA has made its roots to our technological ecosystem

Video material supported by text. The training has evolved a lot in the past 3 years to become more attractive. Specific training tracks exist for the different roles in RPA development, where everyone is expected to learn basic development.

It offers the same user experience as other RPA solutions such as Automation Anywhere and UiPath, but with the added benefit of being able to leverage the cloud for scalability and manageability. Blue Prism Cloud works in conjunction with existing IT infrastructure, allowing users to continue running their current IT operations while automating processes.

Compared to Automation Anywhere and UiPath, Blue Prism Cloud has several distinct advantages. Firstly, it provides pre-built templates for commonly used tasks, enabling businesses to scale faster with increased agility. Secondly, its hybrid deployment model allows users to select either private or public clouds - providing improved scalability and flexibility.

Ease of use: UiPath Automation Platform has a drag-and-drop interface that makes it easy to create and manage automation workflows. It also has a large community of developers who have created pre-built automation components that can be easily integrated into workflows. EdgeVerve AssistEdge, on the other hand, has a more complex interface that may require additional training. Scalability: UiPath Automation Platform is highly scalable, which means it can handle large volumes of data and processes. EdgeVerve AssistEdge is also scalable, but may not be as robust as UiPath Automation Platform.

It can be widely used across various departments regardless of platform the product,processes, use cases are build on.

• Saved a considerable amount of time ( More than 5000 Hours of manual work so far )
• Saved considerable amount of money as well ( If their costing improve, this matrix will improve largely for all organizations )
• It requires very less coding so instead of hiring new people trained in a specific tool we were able to manage this with the existing workforce with a few weekend classes.

• One of the fully automated processes required 10 minutes of work by a consultant for each ticket. This means that after 8 hours of uninterrupted work (but no one can work continuously for 8 hours) the consultant would have closed 48 tickets. The robot for the same process takes 30 seconds, so in 8 hours it works 960 tickets.
• A robot can work 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.
• The UiPath platform is composed of a server part called Orchestrator that provides all the tools to efficiently schedule the robots.
