An RPA tool to automate functions, tasks, and processes that also allows users to do coding from the scratch
In my company, we use AutomationEdge as an RPA tool, which has to automate the automatic functions within our company on a daily basis for repetitive tasks. We need to automate the aforementioned functions in a short period of time with AutomationEdge. I work in the banking sector, and we use…

Automates browsing tasks without needing a server connection
My use case for the product is in the finance domain.  You can automate browsing tasks without needing a server connection. The platform provides its browser, allowing you to run anything inside it.  The product should improve desktop automation, which is hard to configure. It needs to have…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a valuable tool for developing efficient solutions, especially in finance and banking."
"The ability to automate our processes with external plug-ins and zero code is the most valuable feature."
"It helps us with cost optimization and easy implementation."
"We can quickly adapt to our end users."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support of the solution a nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of AutomationEdge is creating accounts."
"The product's most valuable feature is the executor."
"The studio design is fine compared to other similar products. There is nothing extraordinary about it, but at the same time, there are not any negatives."
"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."
"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."
"It is very simple and easy to learn compared to any other RPA tools such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere and Blue Prism."
"The product saves time and resources."
"The drag and drop functionality 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 OCR was quite stable and flexible."
"Provides valuable tools working in integration with RPA tools."
 

Cons

"With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming."
"In the future, they should have a similar version for the cloud and on-premises, and the installation should be flawless within few minutes."
"The installation process could improve. It was difficult to complete."
"The ease of use is the main thing on which they really have to focus. If they want to go against the giants, it should be improved in ease of use, and it should be more user-friendly. It would be helpful because everyone should be empowered irrespective of whether they know how to code or not. They should enhance its user interface and make it more intuitive."
"With other automation solutions in the market, we can simulate the process in our notebooks where the solution creates the code for us, but with AutomationEdge we can't do this."
"AutomationEdge's primary issue is its price point, especially compared to other products."
"There are some shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement."
"The price of the solution could be improved."
"RPA technology is constantly changing, and sometimes Kofax lags behind."
"I'd like to see a recording function and a more simple interface."
"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. "
"Kofax RPA could improve web-based automation and there should be a choice of what browser we can use, such as Google Chrome, instead of an inbuilt browser from Kofax RPA. Additionally, Kofax RPA is missing an orchestrator that other solutions have, such as UiPath."
"The product should improve desktop automation, which is hard to configure. It needs to have custom connectors. It is the only advantage that Microsoft Power Platform has over Kofax RPA. It has more than 800 custom connectors."
"The interface could be better from a usability standpoint."
"Exception handling needs to be improved."
"The technical support must be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."
"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."
"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."
"If you are looking for a budget solution, you can consider AE. It has all the features. Scaling it is way easier because of the cost itself."
"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."
"Pricing can be made better. Currently, I think the pricing is based on the market. The pricing also depends on the business partners that offer you the solution."
"The product is available at the lowest price."
"I don't have complete insight at this point in time, but I would guess that Kofax is a lot less expensive than Automation Anywhere. I would expect its license to be on a yearly basis."
"Kofax's prices are pretty reasonable."
"The solution’s license is not expensive."
"Kofax RPA is moderately priced but expensive in comparison to UiPath and Power Automate."
"The normal price for an on-premises license is €50,000. That's the price for one robot license. You can have more than one robot license but only one can be run at any one time. I believe the cost of adding a second robot is around €14,000."
"I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."
"Kofax RPA's licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"The pricing model for automation solutions like Automation Anywhere, UiPath, and Microsoft Power Platform is subscription-based, where costs are calculated based on factors such as the number of hours used and the scale of automation required.......With Kofax, you purchase a license upfront, and that's all you need. You can create as many automation workflows as you require without additional costs for individual use cases."
