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 most valuable feature of BotFarm is the fact that we can use escalations when we need more computer power to fulfill all embargo that we receive in one day."
"The solution reduces manual data errors and improves data accuracy"
"BotFarm by Automation Anywhere is great for building bots."
"The system is stable and very little maintenance is required, assuming the bots process is perfectly designed."
"One of the most valuable features is the solution's simple automation regarding object cloning and strings variables."
"The most valuable feature of BotFarm is the fact that we can use escalations when we need more computer power to fulfill all embargo that we receive in one day."
"The solution has very good processes, is very easy to deploy, has good reviews, offers good automation, and has very good developers working on it."
"From a solution standpoint, screen capture and tight integration with Outlook are valuable features."
"In terms of stability, it's quite good."
"We recommend different solutions based on our customers' needs, and WorkFusion is what we offer for those who need a premium solution."
"It really does help by either freeing up people's time to focus on more value-added tasks or reducing headcount. We generally have other things that we can get people to do, helping make the employees' work more meaningful since they are not having to do the mundane stuff."
"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."
"Overall, I would recommend this solution to other users."
"If it is the first time a customer is a victim of fraud, he gets a refund within 10 to 15 minutes."
"The Control Tower enables us to create and use workflows. It helps us run processes. There are a lot of small features, but the Control Tower is a very good feature, wherein we can create bots and schedule them as well as create different instances of them to run in different regions."
"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."
 

Cons

"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."
"The OCR command needs to improve. This feature is used to convert the extracted data from an image file and while converting this file I was facing a lot of issues with the data because it was getting lost and some of the data which was extracted was mismatched."
"The community forums can be improved a little bit because they have mixed solutions or discussions with respect to some ideas."
"The OCR tool, the optical character recognition tool, could be more efficient."
"The user experience could be made a little better with this solution."
"The discovery suite that they just acquired could be included."
"The OCR command needs to improve. This feature is used to convert the extracted data from an image file. While converting this file I was facing a lot of issues with the data because it was getting lost and some of the data which was extracted was mismatched. The data loss was rated as a nine and the data accuracy was a massive decrease and was up to 80%."
"The only challenge that we have faced with BotFarm is that there is no continuous deployment."
"The product could do more to expand its 'codeless' coding options by adding drag-and-drop assistance in building bots for non-technical users."
"If WorkFusion goes down, it is a big problem."
"Currently, I would rate their pricing around two, as WorkFusion's cloud version seems costly compared to others."
"The user experience could be better both from an RPA perspective and from a business perspective."
"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."
"However, we've had use cases where we decided not to employ WorkFusion because it lacked capabilities that were important for the business processes in our company."
"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."
"So far, we have developed only one automation using machine learning. The results were less than optimal."
 

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."
"The licensing is on a monthly basis."
"The starter price is free."
"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."
"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."
"We pay approximately $15,000 USD per year."
"The pricing is fair."
"It is too expensive and not worth the price."
"My client is using RPA Express, which is available for them to use free of charge."
"In addition to the licensing fee, there is also an implementation cost for each use case and technical support costs."
"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."
"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."
"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
"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."
"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."
"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."
