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 dashboards are quite good, especially on the latest versions."
"The record option and the OCR technology have been great."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the Excel automation and support for SharePoint."
"Productivity increased far more than thirty percent."
"The solution is very manageable."
"The most valuable features are PDF extraction and emailing."
"The ability to drag and drop various components and the customizability are good features."
"The solution is very stable. We don't have issues with bugs or glitches."
"The Robotic Desktop Automation Express component allows us to do rapid development outside the normal, time-consuming processes."
"The solution is stable, we have not had any glitches or problems."
"It's a pretty robust product."
"We need to analyze documents in order to understand them. We don't need to dedicate much time to this because WorkFusion's machine learning capabilities are very good. We can easily extract information and classify these documents. The document processing engine is very important to our organization because it is the center for many use cases, as we need to control the information contained in documents."
"We can see that its competitive ability is quite good."
"We have been very pleased with the speed and decisiveness of WorkFusion, which is able to quickly provide a disposition note or escalate to a human for additional review."
"WorkFusion's RPA Express's ability to scale across multiple geographies with limited impact on additional IT Hardware requirements. This has enabled the scaling of Robotics capabilities and solutions across all our entities."
"The cognitive features of this solution are good."
 

Cons

"BotFarm newer version has been difficult to install, we have been in contact with the support on this matter."
"The solution can improve the accuracy of hand-written data reading"
"I would like to see more process mining features to give us insight into them before we develop automation."
"The machine learning needs to be improved so that they perform better in terms of predictive analysis and sentiment analysis."
"I would like to have access to self-service support."
"The dashboard needs improvement. For Bot Farm, the visualization is not that good compared to the main Automation Anywhere dashboard."
"There should be more support for developing in environments such as Citrix and Linux."
"The new version is not very stable. Sometimes I can't use the recording sound."
"The product could do more to expand its 'codeless' coding options by adding drag-and-drop assistance in building bots for non-technical users."
"On a scale of 1 - 10 I would rate them a 6. That's not low - that 60%. But as I said, it needs to be upgraded and modified."
"I would like it if they provided a more detailed roadmap in terms of where they are going with the product. As we are trying to make decisions about the things that we are going to do to try to augment our capabilities, we could know whether they are thinking about the same things or not."
"It is complex for enterprise implementation. The solution needs a needs minimum, of 20-22 servers. It's no small task. This is not a straightforward setup. It's a large undertaking and there are many moving parts."
"The problem with the solution is that it is agnostic, so it's not made for banks. Sometimes we are challenged because of this. We have to make everything from scratch to make it work for our clients."
"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."
"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."
"There could be better version control through their web platform. That is something that could be improved on. Integration from the IDE, e.g., from WorkFusion Studio directly into Control Tower, would be nice to have too."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license of this solution is on an annual basis. The price is fair. However, what we did initially was a POC, but now we are looking at moving from a POC to expanding it out further. I would appreciate some kind of discount."
"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
"The licensing is on a monthly basis."
"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."
"The starter price is free."
"It is too expensive and not worth the price."
"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."
"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
"We are on an annual contract to use the solution."
"My client is using RPA Express, which is available for them to use free of charge."
"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."
"Find it online."
"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."
