Featured Reviews

Aditi Bhardwaj - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides an ease of access and an automated mapping feature
We need help with large data migrations. It only works well for a few thousand records or less than a million records. Above that, we need to look for alternative solutions. They could provide automated transformation or mapping features around 10 to 15 independent data objects. We could have a default mark or limit of free usage for standard objects. It will be helpful. Additionally, we can have more integrations with large data volumes as we need a lot of exercises to handle the files in case of complex sites.
Jamil Milhem - PeerSpot reviewer
Automates browsing tasks without needing a server connection
I have worked with Microsoft Power Platform and UiPath. Kofax RPA offers a comprehensive solution with built-in capabilities for executing tasks like running Excel files and web automation without additional servers. They provide their browsers and extensions. For functions such as OCR, image processing, and data extraction, Kofax has built-in features powered by their engine, eliminating the need for subscriptions to external technologies like Microsoft Cognitive Services or Google Search. One of Kofax RPA's strongest features is its on-premise solution, which is particularly beneficial for organizations operating in regions with data regulations, such as the UAE.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"he product’s most valuable feature is ease of access."
"DataLoader is cost-effective since it is free."
"I find DataLoader's ability to easily integrate with external keys valuable, which is a bit more challenging with DBM."
"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."
"You can automate browsing tasks without needing a server connection. The platform provides its browser, allowing you to run anything inside it."
"Initially, the most effective features for process automation were website automation related to web auditing, SharePoint implementations, and automated management of information."
"The best part of Kofax is that they have a whole concept. It's one product, but also has extra elements that can be integrated."
"This is a stable platform and we did not encounter any big problems."
"The drag and drop functionality is quite good."
"The product provides end-to-end solutions for different business problems."
"The OCR was quite stable and flexible."
 

Cons

"DataLoader has limitations, including constraints with file sizes and transactions."
"We need help with large data migrations. It only works well for a few thousand records or less than a million records."
"Dataloader has limitations, including constraints with file sizes and transactions. Additionally, at times it can be slow, and when integrating DBM, we find it more complex than Dataloader."
"The process discovery could be a bit better."
"I'd like to see a recording function and a more simple interface."
"Its documentation is not widely available on the web. They should work on the availability of its documentation. In Automation Anywhere, there is a feature called Discovery Bot that automatically records the process steps and suggests a possible bot. I am not sure if such a feature is available in Kofax. If it is not available, it will be very good to have this feature. "
"RPA technology is constantly changing, and sometimes Kofax lags behind."
"Automating systems based on Citrix, where using AI or OCR-based capture of a screen, presents challenges."
"Automation with the latest websites is not effective. The support of newer websites developed using new technologies would improve this solution."
"Kofax RPA needs to improve integration with SAP and Microsoft. The professional services offered by the tool's team is below par. Its licensing needs to be more modular."
"This product has room for improvement in support of aviation. The interface could be improved in the next release."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is inexpensive and economical."
"The cost depends on the number of licenses and the number of RPAs."
"The normal price for an on-premises license is €50,000. That's the price for one robot license. You can have more than one robot license but only one can be run at any one time. I believe the cost of adding a second robot is around €14,000."
"Kofax RPA is moderately priced but expensive in comparison to UiPath and Power Automate."
"The pricing model for automation solutions like Automation Anywhere, UiPath, and Microsoft Power Platform is subscription-based, where costs are calculated based on factors such as the number of hours used and the scale of automation required.......With Kofax, you purchase a license upfront, and that's all you need. You can create as many automation workflows as you require without additional costs for individual use cases."
"I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."
"Its pricing is reasonable given the product capabilities. Kofax has a wide range of products, and it can sometimes be confusing to understand which capabilities come with which product set. One of the key facets that we've been looking into recently is cognitive document recognition that was a core pile of some of their other technologies such as Kofax transformation modules (KTM)."
"There is a standard license needed to use Kofax RPA and the price is reasonable."
"Price is not a problem, because they are a competitor and we have a special rate."
