"There are a lot of options in ABBYY FlexiCapture, and it is very vast. I have worked with multiple OCR tools, and I found ABBYY FlexiCapture to be the most accurate tool."
"Verification station is a really good feature. It allows part-owners to be able to take a look at what comes out of the tool after a document, such as an invoice, is run through ABBYY. It also allows them to update it if there are any mistakes. So, it kind of gives them a little more control over what goes through the system and lessens the errors."
"While using ABBYY FlexiCapture we did not use the generic models that they do have for invoice and purchase orders. For one of the use-cases, the document was exactly the purchase order, but we are not using that generic model. We are creating the model from Scratch. However, if I was to compare ABBYY FlexiCapture with other IA tools, the machine learning and how the extraction is done is far better than competitors. This allows a lot less effort for the development."
"Identifies and extract relevant elements from a document."
"Its OCR Engine is very successful, and it is the leading OCR Engine. It also has NLP support."
"The machine learning capability is pretty good."
"The initial setup is not difficult. The vendor provides technical documents to assist with deployment."
"We are able to extract details from a PDF and put them into a CSV. It is able to extract the details that we are looking for. We have the Machine Learning feature to extract the data with respect to the position of the field."
"The pricing of the solution is quite good."
"The flexibility to use already-developed components is really good. You can use it for Excel-related operations and other things."
"The ability to script information from websites is most valuable. It also seems to be fairly robust and reasonably easy to manage on a server-based deployment. We have a number of robots operating on the central server."
"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."
"Provides valuable tools working in integration with RPA tools."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The OCR was quite stable and flexible."
"The accuracy changes depending on the scenario so you need to test it before committing to this solution."
"Machine learning needs to be improved."
"Could be simplified, particularly the UI."
"Initially, it was good, but now, in terms of ease of implementation and accuracy, there are better competitors in the market. What we are seeing in some of the other tools isn't there in ABBYY. They have to improve it to include such features. Otherwise, it will be difficult for them to compete in the market."
"Even though the training works, it's not as good as it is made out to be."
"The generic models have a lot of areas to improve. In our experience, we are not able to get good results in the generic models. From a developer's point of view, there could be more improvement if the source code is available on a broader scope"
"Quite complex, particularly for those who are not tech savvy."
"There is always room for improvement in any product. Some of the configurations for the machine learning models for invoice reading are fairly complicated. There is so much customization that is possible with that sort of thing, so it makes sense that there are a lot of options, but some of the more important ones can be a little better streamlined or more upfront. Currently, machine learning models are a little bit difficult to configure satisfactorily."
"I would like to see them further enhance the OCR, specifically in the multi-language support."
"The product needs more AI capabilities."
"We are on version 10.6, and the current version seems to be 11. Kofax is cycling the capabilities of the product very quickly. One of the difficulties has been to actually keep up with the capabilities as they've evolved. On the one hand, it is good that the product is getting better, but on the other hand, it is difficult to implement the best way with a product that is evolving constantly."
"Its documentation is not widely available on the web. They should work on the availability of its documentation. In Automation Anywhere, there is a feature called Discovery Bot that automatically records the process steps and suggests a possible bot. I am not sure if such a feature is available in Kofax. If it is not available, it will be very good to have this feature. "
"There is really nothing special about the capabilities of this product."
"Exception handling needs to be improved."
"The interface could be better from a usability standpoint."
"The solution could use some AI integrated features."
ABBYY FlexiCapture is ranked 1st in Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) with 17 reviews while Kofax RPA is ranked 12th in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) with 7 reviews. ABBYY FlexiCapture is rated 8.2, while Kofax RPA is rated 7.4. The top reviewer of ABBYY FlexiCapture writes "Gives control over what goes through the system, lessens the errors, and saves time to allow the teams to focus on bigger picture things". On the other hand, the top reviewer of Kofax RPA writes "Stable, scalable, and provides flexibility to use already-developed components, but its documentation is not widely available and it needs a feature similar to Discovery Bot". ABBYY FlexiCapture is most compared with ABBYY Vantage, UiPath, IQ Bot, HyperScience and IBM Datacap, whereas Kofax RPA is most compared with UiPath, Blue Prism, Microsoft Power Automate, Automation Anywhere (AA) and IBM Datacap.
