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 solution is easy to use and easy to apply."
"The product has increased efficiency and reduced the time spent on tasks."
"The entire backend system structure is something that I found really valuable."
"The solution is easy to use and easy to apply."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"From a solution standpoint, screen capture and tight integration with Outlook are valuable features."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the Excel automation and support for SharePoint."
"It is easy to use and very stable. It is a rugged product, and it doesn't break so easily."
"The solution is stable, we have not had any glitches or problems."
"WorkFusion helps us in automating our business processes, so it helps in many ways, including lowering the cost of delivery, reducing the cost of operations by employing fewer people, speeding up business processes, and improving employee morale, as people do not have to do repetitive work anymore."
"It is useful that WorkFusion provides the entire infrastructure, which allows me to focus on writing code without worrying about maintenance."
"We need to analyze documents in order to understand them, and we don't need to dedicate much time to this because WorkFusion's machine learning capabilities are very good, allowing us to easily extract information and classify these documents while the document processing engine serves as the center for many use cases, as we need to control the information contained in documents."
"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 that it is easy to use."
"For automating mundane activities, I can recommend WorkFusion."
"Before WorkFusion, my processes were all manual, and now the Workfusion model reduces the amount of time my analysts have to spend reviewing client profiles against client documentation, brings greater efficiency and reduced costs, should reduce our processing time by about 25 percent, and improves our accuracy and compliance by reducing human error and the need for further QC."
 

Cons

"It would be ideal if the solution offered more language options, such as Arabic."
"The user experience could be made a little better with this solution."
"The solution is a bit higher on the pricing side."
"The stability needs to be improved."
"BotFarm newer version has been difficult to install, we have been in contact with the support on this matter."
"I would like to be able to access BotForm using a mobile app."
"From the holistic standpoint of the product offering, there are a lot of things that need to be done."
"Sometimes I feel like it doesn't work properly and we are not able to provide the dexterity needed."
"I would rate the stability as four out of ten. I frequently face issues with infrastructure and some WorkFusion-related problems, such as login issues."
"We have had some problems in the past with the Inspector tool that looks at the elements on the screen. Replacing it or improving it is needed."
"One thing we didn't like was their OCR solution. We felt it's somewhat inefficient."
"One of the issues that we are facing here in China, is that we cannot access the material for training because it is on YouTube. In China, we do not have access to YouTube."
"So far, we have developed only one automation using machine learning. The results were less than optimal."
"For me, where it can be improved is the speed. I built two bots, one with WorkFusion and the same thing with Python; my feeling was that the speed at which Python did things, how fast it did them, was quite cool, it was faster."
"The product needs to be "simple and easy" to use. A good example of this is the use of Python code to perform automations. It is free and the skills transfer is able to happen quickly and the operation and initiation of the completed automation is easy to execute."
"There is enhanced functionality I would like to see, things that would further enhance the user experience, deliver greater efficiencies, and further mitigate risk."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is too expensive and not worth the price."
"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."
"I am very happy with the pricing."
"The starter price is free."
"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."
"The pricing model could be simplified."
"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."
"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."
"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."
"In addition to the licensing fee, there is also an implementation cost for each use case and technical support costs."
"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."
"They have a very expensive license compared to any other automation tool. For instance, at $50,000 - $60,000, you can bring in an Automation Anywhere solution. For this solution, you need at least $250,000 to get something going."
"My client is using RPA Express, which is available for them to use free of charge."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
"We are on an annual contract to use the solution."
