We performed a comparison between IBM App Connect and Tungsten RPA based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We use IBM App Connect for the integration between the applications."
"I would say that the most valuable feature is the array of connectors and integration tools."
"It has an efficient design flow."
"Very scalable, flexible, and user-friendly."
"When using IBM stacks, IBM App Connect is suitable and integrates well with other IBM products like WebSphere."
"The most valuable feature is the user-friendliness of the application."
"Provides good security features."
"It's stable to use, connect with the cloud, and to deploy."
"You can automate browsing tasks without needing a server connection. The platform provides its browser, allowing you to run anything inside it."
"The product saves time and resources."
"The features that we have found the most valuable are the integration of different third-party support and productivity services."
"It is very simple and easy to learn compared to any other RPA tools such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere and Blue Prism."
"Kofax handles UIs via the browser well. If it's not possible, they have other features like modeling screen scrapes, etc."
"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."
"Provides valuable tools working in integration with RPA tools."
"It is stable and scalable."
"When we do a version upgrade of the system, the platform is kind of complicated."
"The product should improve its support."
"IBM App Connect is scalable. From the administration side, they need to improve the RBAC model, as well as the clustering of this product. It will be good if we can start up the cluster, via IBM Connect Console. Some other products like MuleSoft, are providing this type of administration. MuleSoft is easy to use and user friendly."
"In the next release, I would like to get some quality connectors."
"They reply in one or two hours at most, but they could be better."
"The setup time for App Connect could be improved."
"The addition of string functionality would be a benefit, particularly in the ESQL space that IBM already uses internally."
"The user interface of IBM App Connect can be a little bit more user-friendly, I would say because the first-time developer is onboarded while using IBM App Connect, he or she may get a little intimidated or daunted looking at all the options available or the pipelines, et cetera."
"There is really nothing special about the capabilities of this product."
"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."
"The product should improve desktop automation, which is hard to configure. It needs to have custom connectors. It is the only advantage that Microsoft Power Platform has over Kofax RPA. It has more than 800 custom connectors."
"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. "
"The process discovery could be a bit better."
"The technical support must be improved."
"Kofax RPA could improve web-based automation and there should be a choice of what browser we can use, such as Google Chrome, instead of an inbuilt browser from Kofax RPA. Additionally, Kofax RPA is missing an orchestrator that other solutions have, such as UiPath."
"I would like to see them further enhance the OCR, specifically in the multi-language support."
