Just purchased the dev version.

I'm currently using another automation tool, but need something that I can sell to my customers that is easy to use.

I've heard alot of good things about uBot, and the community seems quite active.

What type of learning curve required to start with Ubot? What language expertise required?
 
Any specials for DEV edition?

Sorry, specials are ended at the moment. However, you could start with Pro and upgrade to Dev down the road!


What type of learning curve required to start with Ubot? What language expertise required?

UBot Studio is designed to be extremely easy to use and understand. It was designed with non-programmers in mind, although it includes the power, resources, and functionality for programmers to make bots much faster than they could with other languages.


We have extensive resources available to learn UBot Studio's Visual Scripting Language -- Discussion Forums, Video Tutorials, Wikis, etc. You can also contact us at support.


As with all software, there is a small learning curve to UBot Studio. But UBot Studio was created with the you in mind. Anyone can create powerful bots without programming skills. Plus, with all the resources and support available, learning it is a breeze.

Once you do get the handle of it, you'll start to understand a bit of programming (think conditionals - if then statements, loops, etc). Ultimately, you'll come away able to use other languages (or at least understand them better), but probably find that using UBot is faster.

Let me know if you have more questions,

Hi,
OP can you please reply to my pm send you 3 days ago. Might missed. I send you a pm again as reminder.
 
At first I would have recommended ubot studio... but after fighting with bugs I would not recommend it - even at the discounted price I received. This has been my experience for the last month and a half.

Started getting errors with my very simple script that led me to believe they were memory leaks causing ubot to crash. I hopped on their support forum and was told it's my code, and that I needed to open a ticket. Went ahead and opened a ticket and the support agent seemed to be pretty helpful. I explained the situation and included screens of the crashes. He ran my bot and admitted he saw the same errors but still insisted it was my code.
He would give me new things to try - try it setup with an older browser, try it on another machine, use it through amazons cloud service, etc. I even went as far as to rewrite everything from scratch and was still getting errors. One error even stated it was a ubot memory problem! The agent stopped responding to me and would never escalate any of my issues as a bug or program error so I came over here and messaged Seth because in the beginning he was incredibly helpful. After I explained all of my situation to Seth he didn't respond to me - almost 2 weeks later still no response.
They did however release a new version(having nothing to do with my errors) and I will say the errors have significantly gone down. I've only had the program crash twice in the last week.


The fact the customer service quickly diminished and the company owner just ignored me would make me a non satisfied(and very frustrated) customer who WOULD NOT recommend ubot. It's rather sad too because I had high hopes for it. But hey, the interface is nice so that's a plus?
 
Cody,

What you say about our support came as a shock to me, so I dug in and did some research. After all, if you?re truly being treated this way, then we would clearly need to make changes in how we operate our customer support. Here?s what I found: In the month and a half that you?ve been a UBot Studio customer, you?ve opened exactly 1 ticket. . I've included the entire support ticket for anyone who wants to see it, here: http://i.imgur.com/mdClS64.jpg

This is entirely false. Our support staff noticed errors with your code, suggested improvements, and once they were made, did not notice any errors.

What you sent was an image of your computer running out of memory. That's not the same as finding a memory leak. It is possible to write code in UBot Studio (or literally any programming language) that uses up your computer?s memory, but from the image you sent, there was no evidence that the error was caused by UBot Studio.

The agent stopped responding to me and would never escalate any of my issues as a bug or program error so I came over here and messaged Seth because in the beginning he was incredibly helpful.

There was no reason to escalate the issue, because the support staff could not reproduce your error. There was never a point where anyone stopped responding to you via support, as you can see in the ticket. No one ignored you. In fact, I (in addition to my staff) spent many, many hours trying to determine the issue with your script. I interacted with you directly on BHW. Please review your support ticket.

Nowhere did anyone stop helping, or say that the issues were reproducible, unfortunately. The last response from our support staff regarding your script was, in fact,

"Hey Cody,
Perfect.
I ran your bot 10 times with zero errors. A couple of times I shut UBot
down and then restarted it. Other times I just clicked New and then
opened your bot script again and started running. At least two time I
immediately started running it again after it finished the run before it.
It could be Windows 10. Do you have a second computer that you can
try? I am running Windows 7 Ultimate.
I'm not kidding you. Zero errors.
"

@sk8rjess - I'm one of the owners of the ExBrowser Plugin for Ubot Studio. I've contacted you via the Ubot Studio forums privately. I'd love to help you.

I know that you feel that Ubot Studio has internal bugs that are going un-fixed however most of the time these issues are not fault with Ubot Studio but rather the code being created inside Ubot Studio by the end user.

The errors that were reported were user error in coding. Very easy mistake but when running in a compiled bot can and will cause Ubot Studio bots to crash.

I can tell you that the forums are very helpful for any type of support issue and our Skype group is alive almost 24 hours a day. I have personally had issues that
I couldn't figure out for one reason or another and a simple visit to the Skype group not only solved my problem BUT I was overwhelmed by the amount of different
ways people used to solve the problem.

I can tell you that the customer service has NOT diminished. I can understand you feel frustrated but I haven't seen a thread about your issue and nothing in our Skype
group about this issue.

Please reply to my PM and I'm sure we'll get this solved for you.

That's a pitty. If anything changes, and price level is similar to last one then we'll buy one and maybe for 2-3 users usage.
 
This is entirely false. Our support staff noticed errors with your code, suggested improvements, and once they were made, did not notice any errors.
That's the thing, after improvements were made and the issues were all still there. Even after being rewrote, everything still broke.

It is possible to write code in UBot Studio (or literally any programming language) that uses up your computer?s memory, but from the image you sent, there was no evidence that the error was caused by UBot Studio.
I have the hardest time believing my gaming rig ran out of memory with ubot.. especially since I can run the most demanding games of today just fine with no memory issues and still have all my development programs running in the background. If it did, it was from a ubot leak - especially since I only ever got errors with ubot.
Not to mention I was testing on 4 different computers and an amazon cloud server..

I have, in fact yesterday when you checked the ticket you'll see the last reply was my own. There in fact was a memory leak proven with the browser(screenshot was included of that, too), I wasn't the only one who posted about it I just didn't open a separate ticket because why clutter up so many tickets when I can consolidate all into one.


Cody,I did respond to you.

My last message to you was sent on 03-25-2016 at 08:57 AM and has received no reply - which is not needed now this post.

Nowhere did anyone stop helping, or say that the issues were reproducible, unfortunately. The last response from our support staff regarding your script was, in fact,
Just going to leave these replies from your staff here:

I have run your revised bot several times and I did encounter quite
a few errors just like you. I still think there are some coding issues
that you need to correct.

It is entirely possible that having coding issues like these are whats
causing memory issues that force UBot to shutdown.

Acknowledging both reproducible issues and memory issues with ubot - even if errors are being blamed on my code.
For shits and giggles I took the old, original script I was working with when I first opened the ticket and just ran it. What do you know, it works fine. Ran it 5 times successfully in a row, no issue. The only thing I've updated on my system is ubot, no windows updates, drivers, etc. That tells me the last update fixed whatever the issues were with ubot thus proving my point that it was a bug with ubot.

My code could have been the problem but that leaves a few things to question.
Why would a function work the first, second, maybe even third time then ubot fall on it's face the fourth? Or even the first, second, and third - it was all random when it errored out.
Why would ubot allow me to set a specific scrape function using all the built in functions and show the proper results in the scrape window but not allow me to edit that function because it tells me it was invalid and couldn't find anything but when the script hit that specific part it worked and grabbed a variable just fine?

I'm not here to bash ubot, in my career I don't have time for BS like that. I think it is a great piece of software that has worked well for many people. It does have a great interface and there's a lot of information on it out there. It has saved me from having to dive into python because (I thought) ubot would have been faster and easier. I just wish my findings would have been handled another way rather then constantly saying "it's your code" when screenshots and ubot bug logs prove otherwise.

As said before, it could have been a bug with my code but my screenshots and findings have led me to believe otherwise. I tried both compiled and non compiled.. half of the time ubot just forced closed.
There was both a support thread and ticket started. Was told in my thread to open a ticket so I went that way.
I'll hop over there and look at your PM. Thanks for your reply as well.
 
The bug was nothing more than you not setting a value to your variables. And you admitted in your PM to me that the code now works. So why did you post this message smearing Ubot when it was fixed?

I understand your frustration when something in your bot doesn't work as intended but we have a 24 hour a day Skype Group and a forum you can go to anytime for live help without waiting for support.

I can't tell you how many times I've had something in my code need a 2nd set of eye balls and within minutes I'm flooded with help and don't go trashing Ubot in every forum I can think of.

Your post makes it seem like Ubot Support wasn't there for you and I can tell you they were and you ignored their advice several times to fix your code.

This community is VERY helpful and we all genuinely care for one another and are available to help you if you ask.

In any event I'm glad your software works and I hope you clear things up by letting people know that you were helped repeatedly.
 
Hey SethTurin, I bought a Developer license like 3 years ago and I didn't pay for updates because the version that I was using was really good.

Can you tell me how much would cost me to get the latest version of Ubot Studio? btw it's instant?

Early customers have a grandfathered-in discounted price for updates, so depending on when you purchased initially it's either in the $20 range or the $50 range to get you the newest version - which means you get 3 years of development and features!

It is instant, or should be unless there's an issue.


I look forward to having you up to speed with the newest version!

Again, as I said in your PM on the ubot forums I'm not "smearing" but just expressing my frustration.
No, it wasn't me not setting a variable. It was ubot running out of memory and having the internal browser crash thus not allowing the bot to collect the information - hard to gather something from a blank page. I don't see why we have the same conversation going in 2 locations(here and on the ubot forums).
I'm not against joining a skype group, where can I get the details?
