Senior Rpa Consultant at Accely Consulting
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 pretty straightforward."
"As a company, if you feel that your ROI is pretty high and with Automation Anywhere you are able to achieve the desired ROI that you are looking for, then I would definitely say Automation Anywhere is a very good solution to adopt."
"The entire backend system structure is something that I found really valuable."
"They recently released the newest version that has a good program flow, quality, and blueprints that are all good improvements to the automation. They also have good integration with SAP."
"The record option and the OCR technology have been great."
"It is easy to use and very stable. It is a rugged product, and it doesn't break so easily."
"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 web interface that was introduced in the recent version helps because you are not dependent on any particular system."
"It is useful that WorkFusion provides the entire infrastructure, which allows me to focus on writing code without worrying about maintenance."
"The platform remains stable with well-designed processes, despite being a complex and technical tool."
"Their robots have increased the rate of efficiency by two to five times in our organization."
"If you compare it to its competitors in the market, it is more Java-native."
"If it is the first time a customer is a victim of fraud, he gets a refund within 10 to 15 minutes."
"We can see that its competitive ability is quite good."
"The solution is stable, we have not had any glitches or problems."
"The customer support is very responsive."
 

Cons

"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."
"I would like to see more process mining features to give us insight into them before we develop automation."
"The user experience could be made a little better with this solution."
"The user experience could be made a little better with this solution. I find it difficult to find qualified people to be able to use the solution."
"The solution automation is incapable of interacting with our Pega software application development. It is based on the nested table concept and it is unable to read these tables. Several projects have been put on hold because of that."
"BotFarm newer version has been difficult to install, we have been in contact with the support on this matter."
"Its UI could be made better. It should also be more flexible. Currently, it is more rigid, and a little more flexibility is required. Their technical support should also be better. We are not very happy with their technical support. Its price is also quite high as of now. They should improve its price. Its setup should also be made easier. It is quite complex to set it up. Even though we were able to set it up a little fast because we had done something similar earlier, but it has a very complex setup. It is extremely resource-hungry. If they can make it a little light on resources, that would also be useful."
"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."
"We had some issues in the past, but it is fairly stable now. From what I hear, it is more stable in the later versions. With version 10.1.4, there were some issues relating to load distribution. However, it is good now."
"One thing we didn't like was their OCR solution. We felt it's somewhat inefficient."
"I would rate the product as seven out of 10. It is definitely not a nine or 10 because there are certain shortcomings in it."
"This is a Java-based application that takes up a lot of space and when it runs, consumes a lot of memory. This affects the reliability because it gets to a point where it hangs."
"If WorkFusion goes down, it is a big problem."
"The user experience could be better both from an RPA perspective and from a business perspective."
"The upgrade process is a nightmare."
"On a scale from one to ten where one is the worst and ten is the best, I would rate WorkFusion as a seven out of ten. It is not higher because they have got some work to do now."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."
"Licenses are paid on a yearly basis and the cost is quite high."
"We are on an annual license for the solution and is priced well."
"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."
"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."
"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
"The pricing is fair."
"I am very happy with the pricing."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
"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."
"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."
"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
"In addition to the licensing fee, there is also an implementation cost for each use case and technical support costs."
"The solution was not the cheapest, but it was also not the most expensive. Workfusion was very open to negotiating pricing and to working within the objectives of our firm."
"Find it online."
"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."
