It's accurate, flexible, and easy to customize without using code
The OCR accuracy is high. Vantage is flexible and customizable. It's a low-code/no-code tool, so you don't need to get into detailed coding. You can just use AI to accomplish medium-complex tasks. ABBYY can process complex documents and supports around 230-250 languages. It's critical that ABBYY can recognize and correctly classify most documents. If it can't, that would just add to the manual work. The pre-trained AI models do a great job on invoices because the models are trained on a larger pool of documents, so they perform well with any new invoice we ingest. Tax forms and other templates don't work as well because they are newer models. However, as they process more samples and train the models, it will likely improve over time. AI is a relatively new offering, and it does a decent job. The accuracy can vary depending on the quality and type of documents. If you have a good model and a high-quality document, you can process most of them end-to-end without human intervention. The rate is about 75 percent for our invoices.

Has faced challenges adapting to evolving capture methods and competitive integrations
It's difficult to say what I'd improve in Tungsten TotalAgility because we haven't been actively marketing that particular product in the last probably six to nine months. The speed of product development means that my experience with it is likely out of date in terms of the product suite capabilities. The difficulty with customers nowadays is that they are subject to the winds of change in terms of the adoption of cloud technologies and the offerings those cloud technologies bring. Microsoft, for instance, is rapidly filling in the spaces between various product areas that other vendors typically owned. That makes it difficult for customers to settle on their functional requirements because the offers are competing in the same space. I look for more integration with mainstream subscription based platforms, more security integration, and possibly some more lifecycle management features. However, the difficulty with that is the competition with existing options that people have in their subscription library.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution has its own language that can be configured many ways and with higher accuracy than other products."
"The solution itself is valuable due to its ability to classify and extract information with embedded OCR, which is good."
"Integration is very easy. There are lots of connectors."
"The most valuable feature of ABBYY FlexiCapture is the ability to create your own template on the fly. You can train and classify, you can work with those different templates without the need to do special programming for it or with minimum programming. Additionally, the solution is supporting the Arabic OCR, both of these combined features are the most important for us in the Egyptian market."
"The handwriting recognition is very good, as it can recognize handwriting done with pen and paper with at least 70% accuracy."
"We like the fact that this solution is enterprise-ready, so it can be deployed on-premises, scale it, etc."
"Its OCR Engine is very successful, and it is the leading OCR Engine. It also has NLP support."
"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 tool is low code which saves you from a developer."
"Data extraction and auto-classification are great features."
"One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document."
"The AI-powered features are incredibly important for operational efficiency; they are a game changer in terms of the accuracy of OCR and ICR."
"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."
"It is user-friendly and has good documentation. It's good for developing communication and has a lot of the APIs needed for this purpose. There aren't a lot of software options available from this time period; this is the only one from 2013 that has this concept of microservices."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a great design tool for reading handwritten invoices."
"It's a growing tool that offers a complete package of BPM, case management, and capture capabilities."
 

Cons

"The is a long time between application updates."
"This solution should have better integration with RPA solutions such as Blue Prism."
"I would like better language support for Hebrew and Arabic. They're still working on that, and we might get an update by the end of this year. There is currently no support for those two languages because they write from the right to the left side. It would be great if they could add this as soon as possible because we have customers from the Middle East and Israel."
"Since we are using a trial version, we don't have administration access to create a tenant to integrate my OCR series with Postman."
"ABBYY Vantage is mainly available on the public cloud but for clients that use a private cloud, it is complicated to set up the solution."
"The system does not always train itself to recognize data properly."
"Customization in the solution needs to be modified. In the future, I would like to see the product have better customization functionality."
"ABBYY Vantage is a product that does not include the Arabic language."
"It would be nice if the tool has more connectors to different systems. It is an expensive solution."
"They never stressed the lifecycle document management aspects of regulated processes effectively, which I think possibly represents a weakness."
"Kofax needs to improve the low-code or citizen developers."
"Kofax should improve its handwritten extractions."
"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."
"It’s not truly low code yet, as every two or three projects, you will have a situation where you have to go behind the essential things. You will definitely still need to customize."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."
"Kofax TotalAgility could improve the OTR engine. The page OTR engine is not accurate in predicting the data properly. If you provide many features which are good for business process management without an accurate OTR engine people will not want it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ABBYY is fairly priced."
"The price per page is high."
"Its price is a little bit high and can be lower. Its licensing is very expensive. I don't remember exactly, but for each page, it is about four or seven cents, which is too expensive."
"For us, the price is reasonable."
"The price of ABBYY FlexiCapture is better than some competitors, such as OpenText."
"ABBYY Vantage is a bit of an expensive tool."
"The price of this ABBYY FlexiCapture is a bit expensive and the price is based on how many documents have been captured. For example, one or two million captures."
"It costs 5,000 Euro per year for one license. There are almost 500,000 pages available, so I think the price is good for what we have. It's worth the money."
"The licensing cost for Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive, though I'm unable to give you the range, the sales representatives of my company say that the product is quite expensive."
"Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive."
"It has a perpetual license. You pay once in a lifetime for the volume of scans you will do and the number of users you will have. You can have participants or regular users, and you can have developers and administrators. So, once you purchase it, it is for a lifetime, and then every year, you have to pay for the maintenance. There is an annual maintenance cost, which is about 18% of the licensing cost."
"It is slightly more expensive than other tools."
"The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."
