A seamless all-in-one solution
This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything. With other solutions, you'll need a separate platform for data ingestion, manipulation, etc. Then you'll need another tool for reporting. Palantir Gotham literally does it all. It generates a report regardless of the format. It can seamlessly generate it after the data has been collected.

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

"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
"The product provided all the security controls that we asked them."
"Kofax RPA's best feature is its high success percentage in picking up information from documents, especially where the DPI is really low."
"The most valuable feature is the robotic process."
"The product provides end-to-end solutions for different business problems."
"Initially, the most effective features for process automation were website automation related to web auditing, SharePoint implementations, and automated management of information."
"Kofax handles UIs via the browser well. If it's not possible, they have other features like modeling screen scrapes, etc."
"The OCR was quite stable and flexible."
"You can automate browsing tasks without needing a server connection. The platform provides its browser, allowing you to run anything inside it."
 

Cons

"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
"The interface could be better from a usability standpoint."
"The product has some constraints and performance issues."
"Kofax RPA's UI could be more user-friendly."
"There is really nothing special about the capabilities of this product."
"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."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"Exception handling needs to be improved."
"Automation with the latest websites is not effective. The support of newer websites developed using new technologies would improve this solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Kofax RPA is moderately priced but expensive in comparison to UiPath and Power Automate."
"I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."
"The solution’s license is not expensive."
"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."
"Price is not a problem, because they are a competitor and we have a special rate."
"Kofax RPA's licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"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."
