Tacstone: #1 UiPath implementation partner in the Netherlands
Rick Teunissen
Partner
UiPath is an international software company in the field of Robotic Process Automation (RPA). The company was founded in 2005 and has undergone significant development in recent years. As of 2021, UiPath employs over 3,000 people, serves
10,000 customers, and has 500,000 community users (as of March 2021). The company has also raised more than $2 billion from investors such as CapitalG(Google), Accel, and Sequoia. UiPath is considered a market leader in the field of RPA by several analyst firms, including Gartner (2021). This is one of the reasons why Tacstone exclusively collaborates with UiPath.
UiPath: Market leader in RPA
UiPath is the market leader in RPA (Gartner, 2021) and competes with companies such as BluePrism, Automation Anywhere, and Microsoft. The UiPath Automation Platform has a growing number of products, with UiPath Studio, UiPath Orchestrator, and UiPath Robot forming the foundation. The graphical user interface of UiPath Studio and the freely available Community Edition make the software very accessible. Additionally, UiPath Orchestrator enables users to perform multiple tasks with just one (unattended) Robot license. These tasks can be scheduled at different times of the day and monitored through an intuitive dashboard. Furthermore, UiPath offers several open platforms for collaboration, such as the UiPath Academy, UiPath Marketplace, and the UiPath Forum. These online platforms make it easy for organizations to build expertise independently and avoid reliance on a UiPath implementation partner in the Netherlands.
Search for the right UiPath implementation partner
UiPath has over 1,000 implementation partners worldwide. These partners hold different statuses, depending on certifications and expertise. In the Netherlands, there are only a few Gold partners, one of which is Tacstone. At Tacstone, we notice a high level of interest in RPA opportunities within our existing customer base. At the same time, we also observe a lot of ignorance about key aspects of RPA, such as security, reuse, and management. We see that many organizations starting a pilot without a UiPath implementation partner struggle to scale successfully. This conclusion is confirmed by a study from EY, which shows that 30% tot 50% van de RPA pilots falen.

In our view, this is an important selection criterion when searching for a suitable UiPath implementation partner in the Netherlands.

Selection criteria for a UiPath partner in the Netherlands
We see a great diversity in the market when it comes to UiPath implementation partners, ranging from small boutique firms and classic IT startups to large consulting firms. A clear distinction can be made between implementation partners that have RPA as their core business and those for whom it is just one of many services.
