We would need further details when you say, “extract a lot of information from customer applications” incase it’s a desktop application or web application then you would need to use appropriate UiPath activities example screen scrapping, get text etc. Do let us know further details so that we can help.

Hi Dalia,

As I said earlier, it’s depends on the complexity and how many number of such documents(pages/images) you need to process based on that you can choose. I would suggest you to try with existing native OCR engine available with UiPath studio, as it support native OCR operation within UiPath environment.

To answer your question - if I will use ABBYY ocr engine do I need to have the entire ABBYY Flexi capture In my enterprise or i will use ABBYY cloud?

Answer is- you can use Abbyy cloud, if you perfer not to install ABBYY Flexi capture.
