Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions
I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

Cloud platform orchestrates business processes with AI capabilities
I find the capabilities that a normal orchestrator should have to be valuable in WorkFusion. The WorkFusion 10 cloud-based platform is different from the earlier on-prem version, WorkFusion 9. The platform now includes auto machine learning and AI capabilities. We haven't used these extensively, but they are a nice feature they are working on. The platform remains stable with well-designed processes, despite being a complex and technical tool.

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 straightforward."
"The ability to drag and drop various components and the customizability are good features."
"The entire backend system structure is something that I found really valuable."
"There are not many challenges when setting up this solution, and there is a good amount of documentation to go with it."
"The most valuable features are the portals for extracting data from PDF files, appending data to SAP, automating the SAP, downloading reports, and mapping and creating the reports accordingly to your requirements."
"The solution has been very user-friendly."
"One of the most valuable features is the solution's simple automation regarding object cloning and strings variables."
"One of the most valuable features is the solution's simple automation regarding object cloning and strings variables."
"Recently, our recons team was audited, and when the auditing was done, the process done by the reconciliation bot was the only process that was passed by the auditor."
"The most valuable feature is that it is easy to use."
"From a business point of view, we have accomplished what we wanted to."
"It's a pretty robust product; it comes packaged with ELK Stack, Elasticsearch, Kibana, and Logstash, and it has a lot of monitoring capabilities that we're taking advantage of."
"The most valuable feature is having the technology to interface into systems where we didn't otherwise have an API or some other kind of service or access."
"We recommend different solutions based on our customers' needs, and WorkFusion is what we offer for those who need a premium solution."
"This solution has great document recognition capabilities."
"The most valuable features are the Excel activities. It has a number of Excel activities that are quite reliable."
 

Cons

"An area for improvement in BotFarm is that the communication between the Control Room and the Bot Client Missions isn't utilized well."
"I would like to have access to self-service support."
"BotFarm newer version has been difficult to install, we have been in contact with the support on this matter."
"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."
"We do have some troubles with the internal software commands, but we have been troubleshooting this bug to fix it."
"It should be easier to create an environment for bots to operate in. There should be more support for developing in environments such as Citrix and Linux."
"I have called customer service three times and the experience has not been good. They do not offer 24/7 support, which forces us to wait till the next working day to solve a problem."
"There should be more support for developing in environments such as Citrix and Linux."
"The express version does not do API calls and the Enterprise version does not do codeless coding."
"The OCR capability should also be improved."
"The most common issue we have is with the OCR, but that also depends on the quality of the documents your scanning. Still, I would say the OCR is comparable to other solutions. I wouldn't say it's better or worse than other OCR engines."
"I frequently face issues with infrastructure and some WorkFusion-related problems, such as login issues."
"I would like WorkFusion to improve the automation rate when evaluating unstructured text."
"This is an expensive solution. They have a very expensive license compared to any other automation tool."
"There is enhanced functionality I would like to see, things that would further enhance the user experience, deliver greater efficiencies, and further mitigate risk."
"One thing we didn't like was their OCR solution. We felt it's somewhat inefficient."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price is quite high as compared to other solutions, but it has a lot of features and good stability. They should reduce its price."
"Licenses are paid on a yearly basis and the cost is quite high."
"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."
"The pricing model could be simplified."
"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
"We are on an annual license for the solution and is priced well."
"Pricing for this solution can be better."
"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."
"We have a good deal from WorkFusion. We have an unlimited global licensing deal with WorkFusion. For us, it is a no-worry solution. We can go ahead and use it as much as possible anywhere we need it. If WorkFusion has a different kind of a deal for licensing with others, then their business decisions need to be evaluated based on that."
"The overall cost could come down a bit in terms of maintaining the servers. Because it can handle complicated things in big use cases, the infrastructure is also correspondingly big. It would be nice to bring that cost down."
"We are on an annual contract to use the solution."
"One upgrade took a year to do, from the first server being built to the last bot being migrated. This was because we had to migrate all our existing bots. This is the same process and time frame that we are expecting towards the upcoming upgrade. I will end up spending half a million dollars to do an upgrade."
"Find it online."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."
"In addition to the licensing fee, there is also an implementation cost for each use case and technical support costs."
