Easy to use, flexible to deploy, and trains different documents easily
We resell the product. We are partners. We do not have internal uses of the product. I do not contact support. I contact a representative usually. He escalates our calls to support. I am part of the initial deployment team. The accuracy of the results produced by the solution's AI document processing is okay. It's good that it supports multi-page documents and tables. It's good that the product also has machine learning. We can enable it, and it will improve over time. Machine learning is one of the main things we use. We can train a small batch of documents from Brazil, and it can improve over time without needing to train a lot of documents. Our customers are spread out. We have tried Portuguese, Spanish, Hindi, Chinese, French, and Italian documents. We had a good experience with the languages we tried. We have used the AI extraction models mostly for invoices. The main thing is to get the process up and running quickly. On the commercial front, there are many tables. We can quickly add a document in development and build a scenario for a demo. The implementation is very quick. We have five different customers in a matter of months. Using ABBYY has helped us reduce manual data entry and free up staff for other tasks. Sometimes, the customer already has an ERP that does the extraction. We are just doing it upfront. The percentage of documents that go straight through processing has improved over time as the models get more advanced. It is the main metric we look at. ABBYY provides "straight-through" processing, in which content is automatically extracted and delivered without manual processing. The quality is good. We set the rules. If it goes through, it means that none of the rules were broken. The main problem is to get the percentage high. We apply manual reviews, too. A percentage of the requests with an error in some rules go through a manual review. We haven't had any solutions in production before. We have had backend solutions, but they were not IDP and were not comparable with ABBYY Vantage. Customers see an advantage in them. It is an extra cost. The price is justified by the ease of implementation of training different documents. If we just need one document or invoice, other products may be more cost-effective. The main thing for me is to enable the users to do the manual reviews and improve the results themselves without needing to train or do a big batch of training with the team. The sooner we can get people trained in the process, the faster we will get the results. The newer tools coming up have more natural language, AI, and large language models. ABBYY is one of the best tools I used. Overall, I rate the solution an 8 out of 10.

Robust document capture boosts efficiency and integration options
The best features include multiple channel capabilities such as fax, different file transfers, and paper scans. It can be integrated with multiple channels and can capture images, even from mobile devices integrating into OpenText Capture. Currently, it has introduced AI for data extraction and document processing. OpenText Capture's impact on automating document-intensive tasks such as accounts payables or loan processing is significant. It has the capability to capture table structures or multiple line items from images, including line items and final amounts for invoice processing. The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data. This product can be integrated into any point-of-sale system, Salesforce, SAP, or other environments, reducing manual data entry and related tasks. This feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption. The automation reduces human effort that would otherwise be required for classification and extraction tasks.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the accuracy of document extraction."
"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."
"Screening documents is a time-consuming activity, which has no real added value by itself so the solution saves the company a lot of time."
"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."
"ABBYY Vantage has reduced our data because it can classify and extract information from documents."
"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."
"FlexiCapture is a good product; it can be used for any kind of use case that requires OCR."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ability to extract content from documents."
"The solution is very powerful because it allows for custom scripting."
"The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data, and this feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption."
"The enterprise and capturing feature of OpenText is its valuable feature. As we have integrated CRM with OpenText."
"The automated version of the vendor invoice management is great."
"It is a mature product and a leader in the industry."
"We use it to capture documents coming through our product and mobile channels and make them available for our business to access and email. We use it to automate the email workflow in our applications, pull the documents, and email them to the users."
"Being able to have accurate extraction is most valuable."
"Being able to have accurate extraction is most valuable. It has machine learning and other tools to make the extraction more accurate."
 

Cons

"There has always been a challenge with Word and PDF reading capabilities. There are certain controls like radio buttons and checkboxes that when reading PDFs, really doesn't go well with the RPA."
"The modelling, classification and handwritten information are not great."
"It could be more intuitive. It's huge and has many options, and that makes it difficult."
"This solution could be improved by offering better integration with other platforms."
"Even though the training works, it's not as good as it is made out to be."
"The main thing they need to work on is simplification of the solution, particularly use of the search tool."
"The integration with UiPath is not good."
"They should improve the RESTful API side of this solution. Currently, fully RESTful API is not available in the on-prem version, which is really a problem, and we have to work around this limitation. The cloud version already has a fully RESTful API, but the on-prem version doesn't have a fully RESTful API, which is a big mistake. It is easy to solve, but they aren't solving it quicker. They are taking a long time. Nowadays, most people don't go to the interface. They like to use RESTful API."
"I would say what most of the document management solutions are lacking is smartness to detect the duplicate storage of the documents."
"The setup is medium complexity."
"Knowledge of .NET is required to effectively use the solution or it can be complicated."
"If something is handwritten and attached to an email, it doesn't capture the information correctly."
"Its functionality is good, but it has to be made more accurate. If it is not customized and handheld properly, the recognition and captures won't be accurate."
"The setup is medium complexity."
"I would say what most of the document management solutions are lacking is smartness to detect the duplicate storage of the documents"
"We are using it to improve the image and the documentation for the cases. And sometimes, some cases have more than fifteen different types. We use some tools as fixed standard analysis and provide information to support the different types to take some decisions and help in an automated process. We choose the case type and subtype DNS scanning documents from the data entry up."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We did not go with the licensed version of this solution."
"You need to purchase user licenses, and you also need to purchase the license for the pages. User licenses are required for your developers to use the developer tools, and you also need to ensure that there is a pool of licenses for the business users so that they can log in and perform their activities."
"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."
"The price of ABBYY FlexiCapture is better than some competitors, such as OpenText."
"The licenses for this solution are payable on a yearly basis, and are transferable from one year to the next, if they go unused. The license payment also includes a number of support hours from the vendor."
"I give the price a six out of ten."
"For us, the price is reasonable."
"Most of our customers have purchased an annual license and if you have multiple developers from other companies, you can assign the license on a monthly basis to developers."
"OpenText is an expensive solution."
"Some customers say the solution can get costly because it requires licenses or enterprise packages."
