Eguardian, a leading value-added distributor and a technology enabler in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, together with leading enterprise automation software company UiPath, successfully organised the UiPath Customer Networking Session at Hilton Colombo Residences recently.

The interactive event was organised to provide greater opportunities for everyone associated with UiPath in Sri Lanka to network with automation experts and share product knowledge. The event also presented the opportunity to understand the challenges that companies continue to face due to the pandemic.

The event began with an insightful group discussion followed by a roundtable with active participation from the Eguardian Digital Transformation team, UiPath and a large number of customers, which included senior leaders and key decision makers of some of Sri Lanka’s top companies. Eguardian has been able to continuously produce UiPath award-winning customers and partners through technology enablement, consultation and capacity building within the organisation via training and development, establishing sustainable product practice and pathway to centre of excellence.

UiPath Managing Director and Vice President, India and South Asia Anil Bhasin said, “Enterprises in India are beginning to embrace the value automation brings to successful digital transformation. We are delighted to partner with Eguardian, as the customer network session serves as a great platform for us to actively listen to and engage with our customers. Our mission is to help enterprises unlock new levels of innovation, agility and productivity and successfully transform into fully automated enterprises.”

Founded in Romania and headquartered in New York City, UiPath is a leading end-to-end enterprise automation platform that enables companies to accelerate human achievement by discovering and managing processes across the entire automation lifecycle. 

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a software technology that makes it easy to build, deploy and manage software robots that emulate human actions while interacting with digital systems and software. RPA streamlines workflows, which makes organisations more profitable, flexible and responsive. It also increases employee satisfaction, engagement and productivity by removing mundane tasks from their workdays.

Several UiPath customers shared their thoughts on how RPA has made a significant impact in their company’s operations. 

Colombo Stock Exchange Chief Information Officer Chandrakanth Jayasinghe stated, “Through UiPath, we have enabled end-to-end automated investor interactions with the stock exchange through our digitisation initiative. UiPath has helped us to significantly improve efficiency, reduce errors and create the agility that we need as an exchange to serve the investors.”

LOLC Technologies Limited Head of Mobile and RPA Solutions Suthaharan Rasiah commented, “The UiPath team has been providing us an exceptional service and whenever we have any technical clarifications, they have gone the extra mile to provide us with timely solutions. We have successfully covered everything that was discussed at the event today. UiPath is an excellent educational tool as well and we save time by simply letting the new recruits learn from the UiPath Academy and obtain their certifications.”
