After doing some Google research, reading some UiPath Whitepapers, watching some UiPath marketing videos, looking at industry analyst’s reports on RPA, you will have reached a view that UiPath could be a good technology for your business. Now the question becomes “How to get started with UiPath”?

Yes, UiPath provides a download for its Studio product, so you could just get the software and start. You will need to gain an understanding of the UiPath Architecture and the way UiPath licences work.
