Simplified integrations bring flexibility and efficiency to diverse industries through comprehensive features and robust support

SAP is already trying to make improvements for SAP Process Orchestration by releasing updates every quarter, including patches and modules, and from a security standpoint, while it's a tightly coupled tool, they are introducing a lot of enhancements aligned with current market trends. There are standard contents readily available for starting integrations, which suit around 90% of every industry across verticals including pharma, manufacturing, and employee data central with SuccessFactors integration. Regarding functionality-wise improvements in SAP Process Orchestration, they are now incorporating the Salesforce system. Previously, we needed to rely on a third-party adapter for integration within SAP, but now they are building their own adapters to connect with Salesforce. Additionally, there are options like data connectors using Ariba coming up with SAP Process Orchestration. There's much more to explore, especially as they release new patches, enhancements, and adapters each quarter.

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

"The solution offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution."

"The initial setup is easy...The solution gets automatically connected. The deployment takes six months. I rate its setup phase a ten out of ten."

"It provides essential features such as continuous monitoring of all interfaces are crucial for our needs."

"In my opinion, SAP PO is the most mature suite of tools to integrate processes across SAP environments at this moment. It's really unbeatable because it allows you to integrate whatever scenarios you can imagine."

"Overall, I would rate SAP Process Orchestration a 10 out of 10."

"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."

"SAP Process Orchestration offers easy maintainability and is a very flexible tool that easily adapts to any integration standards and artifacts that are readily available."

"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."

More SAP Process Orchestration pros

"Kofax handles UIs via the browser well. If it's not possible, they have other features like modeling screen scrapes, etc."

"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."

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

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

"The OCR was quite stable and flexible."

"The solution is scalable."

"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."

More Tungsten RPA pros

Cons

"SAP Process Orchestration could improve from an API standpoint. This is not an API management tool, which is one of its drawbacks. However, SAP has released an SAP Cloud Platform Integration which has all of the features, such as API management along with process integration to replace what they had previously."

"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."

"It does not have all of the industry-standard solutions available in PO and it is not plug and play, so we have to do a lot of development."

"The older version of the solution will no longer be supported."

"The product roadmap suggests it will approach the end of support in several years, and a lot of innovations are now implemented by SAP not in SAP PO, but in SAP Integration Suite, hence, the platform is stable, but doesn't receive a lot of new features in recent updates."

"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."

"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."

"There are two main areas for improvement: performance and cost."

More SAP Process Orchestration cons

"The scalability has room for improvement."

"The solution needs to be scalable."

"RPA technology is constantly changing, and sometimes Kofax lags behind."

"Automation with the latest websites is not effective. The support of newer websites developed using new technologies would improve this solution."

"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."

"This product has room for improvement in support of aviation. The interface could be improved in the next release."

"The negative side is that UiPath has a really large community on the RPA side, and Tungsten RPA doesn't have any community for the developer side, which is a red flag for us and for customers."

More Tungsten RPA cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."

"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."

"The solution is highly-priced."

"My company deals with different pricing models of the product, according to which we don't pay for the solution directly, but we do pay for the maintenance part."

"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."

"The pricing for this solution is fine."

"The fee for maintenance is costly."

"The pricing depends on what type of client you are with SAP and the contract you have. There is a licensing cost that needs to be paid."

More SAP Process Orchestration pricing and cost advice

"The pricing model for automation solutions like Automation Anywhere, UiPath, and Microsoft Power Platform is subscription-based, where costs are calculated based on factors such as the number of hours used and the scale of automation required.......With Kofax, you purchase a license upfront, and that's all you need. You can create as many automation workflows as you require without additional costs for individual use cases."

"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."

"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."

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

"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)."

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