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 The speed of product development means that my experience with it is likely out of date in terms of the product suite capabilities.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 initial setup is not difficult. The vendor provides technical documents to assist with deployment."
"Time-saving with increased levels of accuracy."
"It's a very useful and user-friendly product."
"The most valuable feature of ABBYY FlexiCapture is the accuracy of the general extractions."
"The solution has its own language that can be configured many ways and with higher accuracy than other products."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ability to extract content from documents. It is able to identify specific fields and special characters."
"The solution itself is valuable due to its ability to classify and extract information with embedded OCR, which is good."
"The document preset creation feature in ABBYY Vantage has been very effective for data extraction."
"The AI-powered features are incredibly important for operational efficiency; they are a game changer in terms of the accuracy of OCR and ICR."
"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."
"Now it has an OCR, optical character recognition, engine where it can extract data from the document."
"Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding."
"It's a growing tool that offers a complete package of BPM, case management, and capture capabilities."
"Great with recognition providing a high level of confidence."
"One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document."
"Kofax TotalAgility is stable."
 

Cons

"Occasionally, we found the Machine Learning feature to be not working as per our expectations. Sometimes, it also failed to extract details from a PDF. It would be great if training batches work with 100% accuracy. I don't see any other major concerns with ABBYY FlexiCapture."
"The accuracy changes depending on the scenario so you need to test it before committing to this solution."
"ABBYY's support model could be improved because we get some complaints from customers regarding the amount of time it takes and the kind of responses we get. They also need to improve their professional services team and train them to support customers better during custom implementations."
"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 a product that does not include the Arabic language."
"Quite complex, particularly for those who are not tech savvy."
"This solution should have better integration with RPA solutions such as Blue Prism."
"The price for trainings or certifications are on the very, very high side."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."
"They provide sufficient but not excellent technical support. Perhaps there is a point where they could use some improvement."
"Kofax needs to improve the low-code or citizen developers."
"Kofax TotalAgility is quite vast and complex as a product. We came from Kofax Capture and Kofax Transformation, then we started learning Kofax TotalAgility, so there are a lot of things that were quite straightforward in the Kofax Capture and Kofax Transformation cross-motion modules, but to do those in Kofax TotalAgility was a bit more complex or quite long-winded and could be improved. In the next release of Kofax TotalAgility, it would be good to have a straightforward low-code or no-code process because there were instances we struggled with having to put logic into a script or a .NET script, then calling that script, instead of the process being low-code, no-code."
"The one thing I would like to see more of right now: is a simplified form creation. That would be the most significant improvement I would like to see in their product."
"They never stressed the lifecycle document management aspects of regulated processes effectively, which I think possibly represents a weakness."
"There needs to be more accessible certification and better pricing."
"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is per page we use. So, the number of pages we use will be its cost."
"We did not go with the licensed version of this solution."
"Our license is $6,000 and includes unlimited users for the verification station."
"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."
"It is more on the reasonable side as compared to the competition that I am aware of. I'm not an expert on pricing schemes for all sorts of things, but when we offer them a solution, we like to say we're agnostic. So, we offer more than one solution when possible. Amongst the ones that we've offered, ABBYY usually is the more reasonable solution on a big scale. On a small scale, they're all pretty similar. As far as I understand, you pay a license for a number of pages, and that's pretty much it. It has just the rate per page, and it decreases as you scale."
"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."
"We were able to qualify for a reasonable price. The price is in the low to medium range compared to other solutions."
"They have a trial license that is limited to a certain number of pages. The paid license varies from six months to one year depending on the number of documents that need to be processed."
"The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."
"It is slightly more expensive than other tools."
"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."
