Automates processes efficiently with cost-effective scaling and robust customer support
Web scraping is quite good since it offers a lot of possibilities. Another important feature for me is its compatibility with MBI, the Power that is ISEQUADO Centers. I appreciate the ability to scale and increase the number of bots or studios without additional expense. Automate's non-reliance on additional orchestrators makes it quite cost-effective.

Offers integration of the document extraction service into SAP ALC, enabling the direct upload and extraction of details
I found that SAP Intelligent RPA can be somewhat unstable when using SAP GUI. When we upgraded from SAP GUI version 7.50 to version 7.70, we had to update our SAP Intelligent RPA screens even though the screens were the same. This was difficult and time-consuming. The one I would like to see is in context with the screens, if they are using the same SAP UI, and if it updates, it should not be changed. At least it should be able to identify the screen. There should be more of an error, like a proper error feature, in future releases. Sometimes, we don't understand why that automation is not learning what, like, where it is stuck, what the reason is, or what the criteria we are missing to add. A proper error message would be helpful.

An easy-to-use solution that supports multiple integrations
The product is really good, and it is easy to use. It comes with multiple integrations. The solution keeps up with the trend of Microsoft Copilot and AI. The tool's digital mailroom feature can handle documents from multiple sources. This includes incorporating documents from scanners, multifunctional devices, email attachments and various importers. Kofax TotalAgility's OCR capabilities process structured, semi-structured, and unstructured documents. Additionally, it supports both on-demand requests and batch scanning. The main feature I find exceptional about Kofax TotalAgility is its ease of use. While many business process management tools offer similar features, the solution stands out for its simple setup for KPIs and easy configuration of processes and forms. Additionally, it provides auto-generated forms. The solution was also easy to integrate with existing systems and workflows. The tool provides insights into document extraction and classification, including confidence percentages. The system can automatically proceed or route documents for validation based on these metrics. In HR systems, Kofax TotalAgility enables the creation of workflows for employee requests, such as leave approvals, based on predefined criteria like tenure or behavior. Similarly, KPIs can be integrated into customer care to monitor agent performance, tracking metrics like ticket volume and resolution times.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."
"Fortra's Automate performs the job effectively and has the capability to alert us of any issues."
"Compared to other vendors, it's the scheduling tool because a lot of vendors want to charge you extra for their enterprise-level license to have a scheduling tool built in to give you the ability to set up regular schedules to run and do certain data checks."
"I actually quite liked the no-coding functionality."
"The interface is simple, user-friendly, and very intuitive."
"The pricing is excellent. I would give them perfect marks in that regard."
"We use it for specific cases, mainly secure file transfers, which are vital for us. And it works for us."
"The most valuable features of Fortra's Automate include its FTP functionality and file manipulation capabilities."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It is remarkably easy to configure and code, and it doesn't require an extensive technical background or coding expertise."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Contextor is that everyone is in one place in the program that I need."
"The standout features of SAP Intelligent RPA are its flexibility and integration capabilities."
"Scalability is fine. It is pretty nice."
"Most of the details are already in the help portal and SAP notes are available. It is well documented as part of the product support."
"The initial setup of SAP Contextor is easy."
"Contextor is a good solution for a Citrix environment. It's the first with this tool. Other tools provide the same functionality, but not with the Citrix environment."
"The product is really good, and it is easy to use. It comes with multiple integrations. The solution keeps up with the trend of Microsoft Copilot and AI."
"The tool is low code which saves you from a developer."
"Great with recognition providing a high level of confidence."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a single package. They provide you with OCR capabilities, BPM capabilities, and case manager features."
"It's a growing tool that offers a complete package of BPM, case management, and capture capabilities."
"It's not so complex to design what you need to."
"Essentially, Kofax TotalAgility as a whole is quite nice. As of now, we've only been able to use and explore its document classification and extraction capabilities. We haven't explored and used the case management capability yet, but the scan and capture capabilities we've been using heavily and those are quite good. Our solutions are mainly around those areas of Kofax TotalAgility. We haven't explored the product a lot, but the capabilities we've explored are good."
"One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document."
 

Cons

"Sometimes when we communicate with the ERP system and there is an issue, we are not always aware of the specifics of Automate and the source of the problem."
"Error messages should be better. For error status, there should be better documentation because a lot of times, error messages that you get are quite vague. For example, you get a message saying that the workflow has run into an unknown status, which is vague. It just tells you that it failed, but you don't know how or why it failed. It makes debugging difficult."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and easier to navigate."
"Some companies have asked for voice integration. This is likely part of the roadmap."
"I believe we need to test various OCR tools that assist in evaluating, let's say, six different customer resyncs. We analyze their spending patterns and documentations, but current OCR support has limitations, requiring highly standardized documents, which isn't always the case. With a more advanced OCR system, we could improve processes related to credit risk management and legal matters. We're exploring how to integrate Fortra's Automate with our CRM platform, taking cues from instances where Salesforce seamlessly merged with Automate. However, we use a different CRM, Insight for New Enterprise, and we're seeking ways to connect the automation process within our CRM. We aim for the automation to continue smoothly, even in instances where traditional automation methods might face hurdles."
"The documentation for errors needs improvement as many of the error messages we receive are very vague."
"Fortra's Automate is not as reliable as I would like it to be."
"We really need a free development environment for customers. Building and testing automation on production isn't ideal."
"There should be more of an error, like a proper error feature, in future releases. Sometimes, we don't understand why that automation is not learning what, like, where it is stuck, or what is the reason like, or what is the criteria we are missing to add. So a proper error message would be helpful."
"The tool's licensing has been kind of a challenge...At the moment, the tool does not offer different licensing models to users."
"For potential features or improvements, one aspect I would suggest enhancing is the flexibility of the extraction process."
"One way SAP Intelligent RPA could improve is by integrating built-in DI services for document processing."
"I would like to see a better capacity for unstructured data, for example, PDF, or text within images."
"SAP Contextor could improve by automating some processes."
"I found that the SAP scripting of a program is easier than SAP Contextor."
"The initial setup is of medium complexity. It is neither too hard nor too simple. You need some background in SAP and an understanding of it."
"It would be nice if the tool has more connectors to different systems. It is an expensive solution."
"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."
"Sometimes there isn't enough accuracy when it comes to extracts."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."
"The one thing I would like to see more of right now: is a simplified form creation. That would be the most significant improvement I would like to see in their product."
"TotalAgility needs to improve communication with ECMs or other file storage systems because TotalAgility does not have file storage. A good improvement would be to create file storage or integrate with other file storage tools that are currently available."
"Table line item extraction is not possible through Quick Capture."
"They provide sufficient but not excellent technical support. Perhaps there is a point where they could use some improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I like the way this solution is priced because you can buy a license, or you can buy the software outright."
"I believe the price falls within a reasonable range, which significantly influenced our decision regarding the product. This aspect is crucial for any technological solution, especially in our country where enterprises might be hesitant to invest heavily in something untested or uncertain about its practicality and potential returns."
"The pricing is quite reasonable. We can run the process with one bot. The limitation is at the server level because they have some resources, and sometimes that is enough. It isn't too expensive, so you can get a good return off of one, and you can also have a pack of five bots that is quite competitive."
"While solutions like UiPath and Blue Prism cost around $11,000-$12,000 for each license, this product costs around $7,000 and you can keep it forever."
"I'm only involved in running the product and maintaining the systems, so I can't speak to the cost."
"From a distributor's perspective, one of the biggest selling points of Automate is its price point."
"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."
"From a distributor's side, one of the biggest selling points is its price point. Without going into any numbers, compared to UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism, we're significantly cheaper. The main difference is that other competitors usually charge you per process. However, in Automate's case, it's priced per bot. So, a bot can run multiple processes at the same time, but you are only priced for a single bot."
"It all comes with a bundle right now. Having advanced features, it is competitively priced."
"The pricing is not that expensive. It is manageable."
"The initial cost might seem higher, but over time, with continued use over five or ten years, the cost tends to decrease, making it a more economical choice."
"This is not a tool or software with a license as others are. The SaaS model is based on the usage of the tool."
"Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive."
"It has a perpetual license. You pay once in a lifetime for the volume of scans you will do and the number of users you will have. You can have participants or regular users, and you can have developers and administrators. So, once you purchase it, it is for a lifetime, and then every year, you have to pay for the maintenance. There is an annual maintenance cost, which is about 18% of the licensing cost."
"It is slightly more expensive than other tools."
"The licensing cost for Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive, though I'm unable to give you the range, the sales representatives of my company say that the product is quite expensive."
"The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."
