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.

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 very stable. We don't have issues with bugs or glitches."

"What I like most about BotFarm is that it's one of the leading RPA products in the market. Very few products focus on robotics today, so I like that BotFarm offers a lot in terms of what general customers expect it to do."

"The product has increased efficiency and reduced the time spent on tasks."

"The solution is easy to use and easy to apply."

"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."

"The main features of the solution are the IQ Bot and web-based automation."

"From a solution standpoint, screen capture and tight integration with Outlook are valuable features."

"It is easy to use and very stable. It is a rugged product, and it doesn't break so easily."

More BotFarm pros

"The most valuable features are the recorder because it's user-friendly and the integration with other tools Excel."

"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."

"It is useful that WorkFusion provides the entire infrastructure, which allows me to focus on writing code without worrying about maintenance."

"It takes care of simple tasks so users can focus more on exceptions than on regular use cases. They only focus on orders where they need to handle an exception, some information was not given, or there is an issue that they had to focus on. The rest of it goes straight through without human touch. We want to see our employees as engineers, wherein they think and solve problems, not necessarily have to do repetitive tasks. I think WorkFusion helps with avoiding repetitive tasks."

"We have seen Workfusion improve on accuracy and compliance... With the Workfusion model, we reduce human error and the need for further QC. We switch more to a QA process where we're testing whether the model is effective."

"We recommend different solutions based on our customers' needs, and WorkFusion is what we offer for those who need a premium solution."

"It is useful that WorkFusion provides the entire infrastructure, which allows me to focus on writing code without worrying about maintenance."

"The cognitive features of this solution are good."

More WorkFusion pros

Cons

"I would like to see more process mining features to give us insight into them before we develop automation."

"The tool must execute remedial actions to resolve problems before they cause significant incidents."

"The OCR tool, the optical character recognition tool, could be more efficient."

"I would definitely be wanting to see OCR features for improving the solution."

"BotFarm newer version has been difficult to install, we have been in contact with the support on this matter."

"The machine learning needs to be improved so that they perform better in terms of predictive analysis and sentiment analysis."

"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."

"The only challenge that we have faced with BotFarm is that there is no continuous deployment. The whole world is moving to the DevOps model, but BotFarm is still not on the DevOps model. It should have integration with the DevOps model. The migration of the bots or bots pipeline is currently purely manual."

More BotFarm cons

"Currently, I would rate their pricing around two, as WorkFusion's cloud version seems costly compared to others."

"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."

"We have executed our robots thousands of times in our enterprise environment. However, in an enterprise environment, WorkFusion has performance problems. It is slow in production."

"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."

"The product could do more to expand its 'codeless' coding options by adding drag-and-drop assistance in building bots for non-technical users."

"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."

"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."

"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."

More WorkFusion cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay approximately $15,000 USD per year."

"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."

"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."

"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 starter price is free."

"The pricing model could be simplified."

"The pricing is fair."

"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."

More BotFarm pricing and cost advice

"In addition to the licensing fee, there is also an implementation cost for each use case and technical support costs."

"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."

"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."

"As a first-time customer who wants to engage with WorkFusion, not working for my company, then I would want to do a PoC. The cost is prohibitive because they will ask me to get infrastructure with six or seven servers. Then, you must buy a WorkFusion license to do a PoC, which is expensive. I would then have to set up a team to build the PoC and see the benefits. That is very prohibitive."

"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."

"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."

Reviews from Real Users

Akshay P., Associate Systems Analyst at NSEiT Limited, relates, “It is very easy, simple. You're working on a notepad, and you don't need to know programming to work on this. The dashboards are quite good, especially on the latest versions.”

A Digital Strategy Manager at an energy/utilities company shares, “The scalability is the solution's most valuable aspect. The reason Bot Farm is used is to have only one license available whenever you have a spike in the transactions. That is a core feature. That is something which we are using to the maximum. It's working well due to the fact that the solution use case is quite structured.”

A Senior RPA Developer at a tech services company tells us, “The solution is great to automate any repetitive tasks, which you might do on a daily basis. For example, the organization may need to be generating invoices or extracting data from PDF files daily. It is very versatile in what you can automate. This has improved my organization by cutting down on repetitive tasks that now can be automated.”
