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

"Productivity increased far more than thirty percent."
"The best aspect is the UI, as it is very user-friendly."
"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 solution is very manageable."
"One of the most valuable features is the solution's simple automation regarding object cloning and strings variables."
"The solution reduces manual data errors and improves data accuracy"
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"Overall, this is a pretty good product and nobody else in the market is providing RPA at this level."
"WorkFusion's SAP integrations are really good."
"The customer support is very responsive."
"The solution is stable, we have not had any glitches or problems."
"I would definitely recommend WorkFusion because I think over the last six months it has matured and it is stable."
"It is useful that WorkFusion provides the entire infrastructure, which allows me to focus on writing code without worrying about maintenance."
"Their robots have increased the rate of efficiency by two to five times in our organization. There is still a human element to code out the package running the robots. You can't just click something and have it run. However, once that has been done, you can parallelize it 10 or 100 times in a fairly straightforward manner."
"Recently, our recons team was audited, and when the auditing was done, the process done by the reconciliation bot was the only process that was passed by the auditor."
"The most valuable feature is that it is easy to use."
 

Cons

"When somebody is just learning this product it can be difficult for them to understand, so improvements to the user interface would be helpful."
"It should be easier to create an environment for bots to operate in. There should be more support for developing in environments such as Citrix and Linux."
"An area for improvement in BotFarm is that the communication between the Control Room and the Bot Client Missions isn't utilized well. There's also the issue with PCI DSS compliance or certain regulations that require a set of configurations that are not fully supported by BotFarm. The product should be certified or designed according to the required regulations in the finance industry to make it better."
"I have called customer service three times and the experience has not been good. They do not offer 24/7 support, which forces us to wait till the next working day to solve a problem."
"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."
"The solution can improve the accuracy of hand-written data reading"
"The tool must execute remedial actions to resolve problems before they cause significant incidents."
"Sometimes I feel like it doesn't work properly and we are not able to provide the dexterity needed."
"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."
"The product needs to be "simple and easy" to use."
"If we're talking from a developer perspective, the task of actually building automation is not ideal. That's not their strong side."
"The product needs to be "simple and easy" to use. A good example of this is the use of Python code to perform automations. It is free and the skills transfer is able to happen quickly and the operation and initiation of the completed automation is easy to execute."
"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."
"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."
"So far, we have developed only one automation using machine learning. The results were less than optimal. Part of this could be because of the use case that was selected. Overall, our experience was suboptimal. WorkFusion was an outstanding partner in terms of providing their experts for free to help us on that particular use case, but we still have a lot of things to figure out in terms of how to use its machine learning capability."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is on a monthly basis."
"The pricing model could be simplified."
"The product is slightly expensive"
"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."
"Pricing for this solution can be better."
"The starter price is free."
"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."
"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."
"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."
"My client is using RPA Express, which is available for them to use free of charge."
