Rajneesh Prajapati - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Arijit-Ghosh - PeerSpot reviewer

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 most valuable features of this solution are the Excel automation and support for SharePoint."
"The solution has a lot of great features inside of it that clients can take advantage of."
"Technical support is really good; when we have had issues, they have been able to help us and gave us several solutions based on the challenges that we were facing."
"There are not many challenges when setting up this solution, and there is a good amount of documentation to go with it."
"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."
"Automation Anywhere provides and facilitates cloud service, which means you can access your license from anywhere, easily executing and developing your bots from anywhere in the world."
"The best aspect is the UI, as it is very user-friendly."
"Productivity increased far more than thirty percent."
"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."
"Their robots have increased the rate of efficiency by two to five times in our organization."
"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."
"The most valuable features are the recorder because it's user-friendly and the integration with other tools Excel."
"From a business point of view, we have accomplished what we wanted to."
"This product helps us by automating functions in finance, where users are able to have attended bots and save time by handing processes to the bots to run while they continue their own work."
"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."
"This solution has great document recognition capabilities."
 

Cons

"Sometimes I feel like it doesn't work properly and we are not able to provide the dexterity needed."
"The CL command poses an issue during the process of data conversion, accuracy, data loss and the assessment of certain data as false."
"The stability needs to be improved."
"Although I like the OCR technology, it could still be further improved."
"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."
"We have connectivity and integration with pretty much every single tech stack across the table that we have in the world, and there are a few areas that they don't do that well yet."
"When somebody is just learning this product it can be difficult for them to understand, so improvements to the user interface would be helpful."
"One aspect that can be improved is the accessibility of reusable components for developers. It relates to role-based access and accessibility."
"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 product needs to be "simple and easy" to use."
"I frequently face issues with infrastructure and some WorkFusion-related problems, such as login issues."
"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."
"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."
"The problem with the solution is that it is agnostic, so it's not made for banks."
"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 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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay approximately $15,000 USD per year."
"We are on an annual license for the solution and is priced well."
"Licenses are paid on a yearly basis and the cost is quite high."
"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."
"The starter price is free."
"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."
"Pricing for this solution can be better."
"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
"We are on an annual contract to use the solution."
"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."
"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."
"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."
"My client is using RPA Express, which is available for them to use free of charge."
"Find it online."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
