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

"It is fully featured, has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do, is very easy to use and install, is pretty self-explanatory, and their support was also very good."
"Customer Service: We have a support contract with Jumpmind. The support resources are readily available and provide expert support to any questions."
"It is fully featured. It has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do."
"The flexibility to use already-developed components is really good. You can use it for Excel-related operations and other things."
"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."
"The scalability of Kofax is very handy, because with a few clicks you can have your scalable environment up and ready and it is not so complex to configure the entire environment."
"You can automate browsing tasks without needing a server connection. The platform provides its browser, allowing you to run anything inside it."
"The solution is scalable."
"Provides valuable tools working in integration with RPA tools."
"The tool's most valuable feature is web browser automation, which makes it easy to interact with any website. We can assemble a robot in a few hours with web automation, depending on its complexity."
"The ability to script information from websites is most valuable. It also seems to be fairly robust and reasonably easy to manage on a server-based deployment. We have a number of robots operating on the central server."
 

Cons

"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."
"The process discovery could be a bit better."
"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."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"RPA technology is constantly changing, and sometimes Kofax lags behind."
"There is really nothing special about the capabilities of this product."
"The product needs more AI capabilities."
"The product has some constraints and performance issues."
"For additional features, I'd like to see a recording function and a more simple interface."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Price is not a problem, because they are a competitor and we have a special rate."
"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)."
"Kofax RPA is moderately priced but expensive in comparison to UiPath and Power Automate."
"The solution’s license is not expensive."
"The cost depends on the number of licenses and the number of RPAs."
"I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."
"There is a standard license needed to use Kofax RPA and the price is reasonable."
"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."
