Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The licensing of the product is very good. You only need to license it once and then you have it forever.""The most valuable features for my client are timing and scheduling.""The ability to connect to websites and pull data is the solution's most valuable feature.""It's very easy to use. That's a big selling point for it. It has got a drag-and-drop interface, so you can quickly deploy bots.""The most valuable feature is the drag-and-drop interface, which is very Windows-like.""We have found the pricing to be very reasonable.""It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed.""I like the interface; it makes managing automation easy. We can set different schedules and templates for each task."

"Kofax TotalAgility is a single package. They provide you with OCR capabilities, BPM capabilities, and case manager features.""The tool is low code which saves you from a developer.""Now it has an OCR, optical character recognition, engine where it can extract data from the document.""The product is really good, and it is easy to use. It comes with multiple integrations. The solution keeps up with the trend of Microsoft Copilot and AI.""Essentially, Kofax TotalAgility as a whole is quite nice. As of now, we've only been able to use and explore its document classification and extraction capabilities. We haven't explored and used the case management capability yet, but the scan and capture capabilities we've been using heavily and those are quite good. Our solutions are mainly around those areas of Kofax TotalAgility. We haven't explored the product a lot, but the capabilities we've explored are good.""One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document.""It's not so complex to design what you need to.""Kofax TotalAgility is stable."

Cons
"Some companies have asked for voice integration. This is likely part of the roadmap.""The documentation for errors needs improvement as many of the error messages we receive are very vague.""The intelligent automation feature could be improved. It's interesting because it's simple, but the automation quality isn't always good. It's easy to use, but sometimes you need to make a slight improvement to the automation, and that's not so easy.""We really need a free development environment for customers. Building and testing automation on production isn't ideal.""Error messages should be better. For error status, there should be better documentation because a lot of times, error messages that you get are quite vague. For example, you get a message saying that the workflow has run into an unknown status, which is vague. It just tells you that it failed, but you don't know how or why it failed. It makes debugging difficult.""They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance.""The OCR for Hebrew text needs to be improved.""Fortra's Automate is not as reliable as I would like it to be."

More Fortra's Automate Cons →

"Table line item extraction is not possible through Quick Capture.""Kofax TotalAgility could improve the OTR engine. The page OTR engine is not accurate in predicting the data properly. If you provide many features which are good for business process management without an accurate OTR engine people will not want it.""The one thing I would like to see more of right now: is a simplified form creation. That would be the most significant improvement I would like to see in their product.""It’s not truly low code yet, as every two or three projects, you will have a situation where you have to go behind the essential things. You will definitely still need to customize.""It would be nice if the tool has more connectors to different systems. It is an expensive solution.""They provide sufficient but not excellent technical support. Perhaps there is a point where they could use some improvement.""TotalAgility needs to improve communication with ECMs or other file storage systems because TotalAgility does not have file storage. A good improvement would be to create file storage or integrate with other file storage tools that are currently available.""Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Compared to other products, the pricing model for this solution is much more convenient, flexible, and adaptable to the Portuguese reality."
  • "I like the way this solution is priced because you can buy a license, or you can buy the software outright."
  • "It comes with a package that costs approximately $20,000 USD per year."
  • "While solutions like UiPath and Blue Prism cost around $11,000-$12,000 for each license, this product costs around $7,000 and you can keep it forever."
  • "I'm only involved in running the product and maintaining the systems, so I can't speak to the cost."
  • "The pricing is quite reasonable. We can run the process with one bot. The limitation is at the server level because they have some resources, and sometimes that is enough. It isn't too expensive, so you can get a good return off of one, and you can also have a pack of five bots that is quite competitive."
  • "From a distributor's perspective, one of the biggest selling points of Automate is its price point."
  • "The cost is a bit high for a small business like ours, but we manage with Fortra's Automate."

  • "The licensing cost for Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive, though I'm unable to give you the range, the sales representatives of my company say that the product is quite expensive."
  • "It is slightly more expensive than other tools."
  • "Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive."
  • "It has a perpetual license. You pay once in a lifetime for the volume of scans you will do and the number of users you will have. You can have participants or regular users, and you can have developers and administrators. So, once you purchase it, it is for a lifetime, and then every year, you have to pay for the maintenance. There is an annual maintenance cost, which is about 18% of the licensing cost."
  • "The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."
