UiPath secures five spots in G2 2026 Best Software Awards

UiPath has been named on five lists in G2's 2026 Best Software Awards, placing the automation software provider among vendors recognised in the software marketplace's annual rankings.

UiPath appeared in categories spanning artificial intelligence, development tools, IT management and global sellers. The awards are based on G2's methodology, which combines verified user reviews with market presence data.

UiPath was listed in: Best Agentic AI Software Products 2026, Best AI Software Products 2026, Best Development Software Products 2026, Best IT Management Software Products 2026, and Best Global Sellers 2026.

Customer reviews

G2 operates a software review marketplace and reports that it reaches more than 100 million buyers each year. Its Best Software Awards rank software companies and products using authenticated user reviews alongside publicly available market signals.

To be eligible for the 2026 awards, a company or product needed at least 10 approved reviews during the 2025 calendar year. Scores reflect reviews submitted during that evaluation period, according to G2.

UiPath sells an automation and orchestration platform. It positions the product around AI agents, robots and automation for business processes, with growing emphasis on what it calls agentic automation-systems that can take actions within defined boundaries rather than only returning recommendations.

Market position

The recognition comes as software vendors seek visibility on third-party marketplaces where buyers compare tools, pricing and functionality. These platforms can influence procurement decisions, particularly for cloud and subscription software, where switching costs are often lower than for traditional on-premise deployments.

UiPath competes in a crowded market that includes robotic process automation specialists, workflow automation vendors and large software groups that offer automation within broader suites. The company is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker PATH.

Michael Atalla, UiPath's chief marketing officer, said the company viewed the rankings as a reflection of customer feedback shared through G2.

"We're grateful for the trust our customers place in us and for the feedback they continue to share through the G2 community," Atalla said.

He linked that feedback to product development and UiPath's approach to using AI agents in business workflows.

"Their real-world experiences are an invaluable guide to building and improving our platform every day. Customer feedback shapes our vision for the future of intelligent business automation, moving beyond disconnected demos or isolated AI agents to advance the evolution of the agentic enterprise. Working together, we're eliminating siloes and enabling orchestrated, end-to-end workflows that drive meaningful business impact while remaining secure, governable, and scalable," Atalla said.

AI discovery

G2 has framed the awards in the context of how buyers research software, with more queries routed through AI-driven tools that summarise options and cite sources. It argues that verified reviews and marketplace data create a record that can influence recommendations.

Godard Abel, G2's co-founder and CEO, said buyers are increasingly relying on AI-driven research when searching for software.

"As buyers increasingly shift to AI-driven research to discover software solutions, being recommended in the 'answer moment' must be earned with credible proof," Abel said.

He described the awards as rooted in customer review data and as a signal used by both human buyers and AI systems.

"Our Best Software Awards are grounded in trusted data from authentic customer reviews. They not only give buyers an objective, reliable guide to the products that help teams do their best work, but they're also the proof AI search platforms rely on when sourcing answers. Congratulations to this year's winners, including UiPath. Earning a spot on these lists signals real customer impact," Abel said.

UiPath says its platform is used to orchestrate business processes and that it has emphasised security and governance features as automation tools spread beyond individual teams into larger enterprise deployments. It has also highlighted integration with other business systems as a factor in broader adoption.

G2 says it works with thousands of software and services companies, citing examples including Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoom and Adobe. The marketplace is used by employees across large organisations, including Fortune 500 companies, according to G2.

UiPath's presence across categories spanning AI software and IT management suggests it is seeking recognition beyond its original position in robotic process automation and into adjacent segments where automation overlaps with software development and operational tooling.

G2's awards programme includes dozens of lists and uses a proprietary algorithm that combines review volume and sentiment with market presence measures. G2 says it verifies user reviews before including them in its scoring model.

UiPath is expected to continue pushing its agentic automation positioning as more enterprises test AI tools in production workflows and assess governance, security and operational controls alongside productivity gains.
