Offloads processes on the server side but needs better installation syntax

One area for improvement is the installation process. Another point could be the syntax, as it sometimes involves using syntax names that are not intuitive. For example, to calculate the difference between two dates, the general syntax in SAS is called the data difference or data net function. However, another name is used, such as NF and INK. Without knowledge of SAS programming, it becomes unclear what these functions mean. It is not good to define function names this way.

A n automation solution with OCR and scanner

Tungsten RPA features enhanced desktop automation capabilities, improved Active Directory integration, and upgraded recorder functionality. These updates will be available in the upcoming release. Firstly, The first level of support needs enhancement. When you open a ticket with Tungsten, they inquire about various aspects of the issue. The initial support level should involve conducting a Webex meeting to address and assess the reported issues within the environment directly. This would involve thoroughly checking the issues and logs, among other relevant factors. It may require a minor configuration adjustment that could be resolved promptly during the session. There are several challenges associated with Tungsten RPA. Firstly, there is often a perception issue among employees who may believe that RPA is intended to replace their jobs rather than enhance efficiency. This misconception can hinder the adoption of RPA solutions in the workplace, as employees may resist the implementation of automation technologies. Secondly, there have been challenges related to integrating Tungsten RPA with applications built on Java. Many issues have been addressed and resolved in V11.3, thus improving the compatibility of Tungsten RPA with Java-based applications and major challenges.

"The solution offers very good data manipulation and loading."

"The solution is very stable."

"A key feature allows us to enhance job performance by offloading processing to the server side, rather than processing on the server itself."

"The product saves time and resources."

"The pricing of the solution is quite good."

"The product provided all the security controls that we asked them."

"The solution is scalable."

"The OCR was quite stable and flexible."

"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."

"The features that we have found the most valuable are the integration of different third-party support and productivity services."

"This is a stable platform and we did not encounter any big problems."

Cons

"The initial setup of SAS Data Integration Server was complex."

"One area for improvement is the installation process."

"So I would like to see improved integration with other software."

"The initial setup had issues, and even after using it for about one year, it was still not fixed."

"The transform tool has limited access. They should make it more flexible."

"The technical support must be improved."

"The scalability has room for improvement."

"The interface could be better from a usability standpoint."

"We are on version 10.6, and the current version seems to be 11. Kofax is cycling the capabilities of the product very quickly. One of the difficulties has been to actually keep up with the capabilities as they've evolved. On the one hand, it is good that the product is getting better, but on the other hand, it is difficult to implement the best way with a product that is evolving constantly."

"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."

"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

"It is an expensive program."

"The solution’s license is not expensive."

"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."

"I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."

"Price is not a problem, because they are a competitor and we have a special rate."

"Kofax's prices are pretty reasonable."

"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."

"There is a standard license needed to use Kofax RPA and the price is reasonable."
