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

"BotFarm is an easy solution to use and the interface is better than older versions."
"The system is stable and very little maintenance is required, assuming the bots process is perfectly designed."
"There are not many challenges when setting up this solution, and there is a good amount of documentation to go with it."
"It is easy to use and very stable. It is a rugged product, and it doesn't break so easily."
"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."
"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 entire backend system structure is something that I found really valuable."
"Now, we have standardized responses, and our customers are getting better, error-free, and on-time responses."
"The automation process is the most valuable feature."
"The cognitive features of this solution are good."
"The most valuable features are the recorder because it's user-friendly and the integration with other tools Excel."
"It is useful that WorkFusion provides the entire infrastructure, which allows me to focus on writing code without worrying about maintenance."
"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."
"It is useful that WorkFusion provides the entire infrastructure, which allows me to focus on writing code without worrying about maintenance."
"The platform remains stable with well-designed processes, despite being a complex and technical tool."
"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."
 

Cons

"The machine learning needs to be improved so that they perform better in terms of predictive analysis and sentiment analysis."
"IQ Bot, used by BotFarm, needs to be improved with respect to being able to read handwritten documents using the OCR."
"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."
"The CL command poses an issue during the process of data conversion, accuracy, data loss and the assessment of certain data as false."
"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 solution doesn't have support like they used to. They need support. We have personnel of our own, but sometimes we need assistance beyond our own team."
"I would definitely be wanting to see OCR features for improving the solution."
"The OCR tool, the optical character recognition tool, could be more efficient."
"There is enhanced functionality I would like to see, things that would further enhance the user experience, deliver greater efficiencies, and further mitigate risk."
"One thing we didn't like was their OCR solution. We felt it's somewhat inefficient."
"It should integrate with more ERP solutions like SAP. It doesn't currently have that ability."
"The OCR capability should also be improved."
"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."
"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."
"WorkFusion comes packed with certain libraries and .jars. At times, you understand that you're using a system in which a library or .jar is outdated and you need to upgrade it... They need to better manage quickly making changes in WorkFusion to accommodate a situation where other technologies are not supporting the platform."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is slightly expensive"
"The pricing model could be simplified."
"The pricing is fair."
"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with 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."
"Automation Anywhere is more reasonable than Blue Prism and UiPath in terms of cost."
"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."
"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."
"In addition to the licensing fee, there is also an implementation cost for each use case and technical support costs."
"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."
"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."
"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."
"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."
"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
"Find it online."
