Global Organizations Turning to Robotic Process Automation to Respond to COVID-19 PandemicOrganizations around the world are turning to automation to become faster and more agile in the face of increased demand and rapidly changing environments. From managing high volumes of testing results to supporting the increased need in call centers to preparing and enabling a remote workforce, organizations are realizing the benefits of automating right now. To support this need in a fast-changing world, UiPath, the leading enterprise Robotic Process Automation (RPA) software company, is offering healthcare organizations free RPA software to accelerate critical processes and free up strapped employees so they can more rapidly respond to issues arising as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company is also offering its Automation Hub at no cost to enterprise customers and prospects for one year. With this tool, enterprises can capture automation ideas from their staff to build an automation pipeline that will support new and evolving employee needs, especially as they work remotely. This includes UiPath Task Capture to record tasks and document processes. In the last 21 days, UiPath has amassed 30 COVID-19 use cases to save lives and save businesses, and signed over 100 new customers to deploy UiPath Automation Hub to engage their remote workforce. "We're heavily invested right now in helping combat the spread of COVID-19 with the help of our RPA platform and providing our customers timely support as they transition to new operating models," said UiPath Co-Founder and CEO Daniel Dines.
