How to choose RPA software

  1. RPA vs AI agents

    For new automation projects in 2026, evaluate AI agents (Claude Code, OpenAI Agents) alongside RPA. RPA is brittle to UI changes; AI agents adapt. RPA still wins for high-volume deterministic tasks with stable UIs.

  2. Citizen vs developer RPA

    Citizen RPA (anyone can build): Power Automate, UiPath StudioX. Developer RPA (deep coding): UiPath, Automation Anywhere full editions. Match to your team's capacity.

  3. Plan for ongoing maintenance

    RPA bots break when underlying UIs change. Budget for ongoing maintenance, not just initial build. Many RPA programs fail because the maintenance cost was unbudgeted.
