UiPath, moved to 2025.10 LTS before the support dates pass.

Mainstream support for UiPath 2024.10 LTS ends on 21 October 2026. Extended support for 2023.10 runs out between 23 October and 3 November. We upgrade Orchestrator, Studio and Automation Suite, convert Windows-Legacy projects, and add agents only where they earn their place.

Cohash upgrades, supports and extends UiPath estates.

We move Orchestrator, Studio and Automation Suite to 2025.10 LTS, convert Windows-Legacy projects that Studio STS can no longer edit, harden robot credentials and queues, and build agentic workflows with UiPath Maestro. UiPath's lifecycle page puts the end of 2024.10 LTS mainstream support for Orchestrator and Studio on 21 October 2026.

you probably need this if
  • Orchestrator is on 2023.10 or 2024.10, and support ends this month.
  • Most processes are Windows - Legacy projects and nobody owns the conversion.
  • Robots fail after every SAP or Salesforce release because selectors break.

what we do

Our UiPath work

6 kinds of UiPath work, each run by engineers who have done it on live tenants.

  1. Standalone Orchestrator or Automation Suite moved to the 2025.10 LTS line, with database backups, tenant settings, queues and assets checked before and after.

  2. Projects converted from Windows - Legacy to the Windows compatibility, activity packages updated and each process regression-tested against the target applications.

  3. On-premises Orchestrator tenants moved to Automation Cloud, with robots, folders, credentials and schedules mapped and cut over by process group.

  4. Long-running processes modeled in UiPath Maestro, with agents, robots and people each doing the steps they are suited to, and human approvals where the risk calls for it.

  5. Robot accounts, credential stores and Orchestrator roles reviewed so unattended robots hold only the access their processes need.

  6. Queue monitoring, failed job triage, and a fix list for the processes that break every time a target application changes.

typical situations

UiPath situations we walk into

We pieced these together from UiPath situations that come up a lot. They're patterns. You won't find a specific client in them.

case file 01

Orchestrator 2023.10, 400 Windows - Legacy processes, support ending this month

composite · not a client story
  1. Beforethe situation

    Standalone Orchestrator is on 2023.10, and its extended support ends on 23 October 2026. Most of the 400 processes are Windows - Legacy projects on old activity packages. The CoE has two developers to deal with all of it.

  2. What we dothe work

    We rank processes by business impact, move Orchestrator to 2025.10 LTS first, since Studio LTS still edits Windows - Legacy projects, then convert processes in waves with a regression test for each.

  3. Afterwhere you end up

    The platform is on a supported release again within a short time. Converting projects then becomes scheduled work, no longer an emergency.

case file 02

Invoice exceptions handled by hand next to a working robot

composite · not a client story
  1. Beforethe situation

    A robot posts invoices into SAP, but a third of them fail on mismatched purchase order lines and land in a shared mailbox for the AP team to fix by hand.

  2. What we dothe work

    We build an evaluation set from past exceptions first. Then we model the process in Maestro, add an agent step that reads the invoice and PO and proposes a match with its reasoning, and route low-confidence cases to an AP approver.

  3. Afterwhere you end up

    AP reviews matches the agent proposes instead of starting from scratch. And thanks to the evaluation set, you know how the agent behaves before it touches production.

approach

How a UiPath engagement runs

We don't start a step until the last one has produced something you can check.

  1. step 01

    Estate inventory

    We write down which Orchestrator, Automation Suite and Studio versions you run, which processes are on which project compatibility, the activity package versions and robot accounts, and the target applications each process touches.

  2. step 02

    Upgrade and conversion plan

    A version path to 2025.10 LTS, the order to convert Windows - Legacy projects, and a regression test set for the processes the business depends on.

  3. step 03

    Rehearse and convert

    We upgrade a non-production Orchestrator, convert and test processes in waves, and fix selectors and package conflicts as they surface.

  4. step 04

    Cut-over and run

    We upgrade production in a planned window, reconnect the robots and keep an eye on them. Then your CoE gets the queue dashboards and runbooks.

architecture

Where UiPath sits between people, agents and business systems

Orchestrator schedules unattended robots and Maestro coordinates long-running processes that mix robots, agents and people. Robots work in target applications through UI and API automation, and agents call language models for steps that need judgement.

  2. UIP-02 Hundreds of processes are still Windows - Legacy projects common request

  • Automation CoE lead
01Which UiPath versions are still supported?

2025.10 is the current LTS for Orchestrator and Studio on UiPath's lifecycle page, with mainstream support to October 2027. 2024.10 LTS leaves mainstream support on 21 October 2026. 2023.10 extended support ends between 23 October and 3 November 2026, depending on the product.

02Do we have to convert Windows - Legacy projects?

Not immediately if you stay on Studio LTS, which still edits them. Studio STS no longer creates or edits them, and new projects default to Windows. Most teams convert as part of an upgrade so they aren't tied to one Studio track.

03How long does an Orchestrator upgrade take?

The platform upgrade is the quick part. Most of the time goes on regression-testing your processes, particularly anything built as a Windows - Legacy project or on old activity packages. We size the job from your process inventory.

04Should we move to Automation Cloud?

It depends on data residency, network access to target systems and how much infrastructure work you want to keep. Automation Cloud takes platform upgrades off your plate. What it can't do is give robots a network path to on-premises applications. That's still yours to provide.

05Where do agents fit in our UiPath estate?

Look first at processes that already have exceptions people handle by reading documents or emails. Maestro can route those steps to an agent and add a human approval. The robots keep the deterministic work.

06Do you staff UiPath developers?

Yes. UiPath developers, solution architects and infrastructure engineers, on contract, contract-to-hire or permanent terms. Onsite in the US, nearshore or offshore, any time zone.
