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

"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."
"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."
"I would definitely recommend this solution."
"The product provided all the security controls that we asked them."
"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, and if you take the whole package with the extra products you can digitize it using RPA and also by using the other products they provide."
"The most valuable feature is the robotic process."
"The features that we have found the most valuable are the integration of different third-party support and productivity services."
"Kofax RPA has allowed us to create a program in which the top 100 forms used across the organization are extracted and pushed into a database, from which any team globally can extract the information from those forms."
"The most valuable feature of Kofax RPA is the simplicity of automating tasks."
 

Cons

"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."
"The interface could be better from a usability standpoint."
"Kofax needs to create a community where developers have the opportunity to donate to it. The education surrounding this solution should be better."
"There have been a lot of issues we have had that have taken weeks, if not months to fix and the support is not satisfactory."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"The technical support must be improved."
"This product has room for improvement in support of aviation. The interface could be improved in the next release."
"Kofax RPA's UI could be more user-friendly."
"Automating systems based on Citrix, where using AI or OCR-based capture of a screen, presents challenges."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Kofax RPA's licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"I don't have complete insight at this point in time, but I would guess that Kofax is a lot less expensive than Automation Anywhere. I would expect its license to be on a yearly basis."
"I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."
"Kofax RPA is moderately priced but expensive in comparison to UiPath and Power Automate."
"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."
"Price is not a problem, because they are a competitor and we have a special rate."
"The solution’s license is not expensive."
