Featured Reviews

Laxman Molugu - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhances operational efficiency with valuable prepackaged content and cost-effective pricing
For organizations that operate within an SAP ecosystem, SAP Process Orchestration is recommended due to its cost-effectiveness and the availability of valuable prepackaged content. It is important to consider the needs of your industry, as SAP Process Orchestration may not meet all requirements in consumer-oriented sectors. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

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

"SAP Process Orchestration is middleware where we are able to manage and interact with everything from a single location. One of the most beneficial areas is monitoring which is very easy because it is all in one place. There are many adapters added recently that can be used for new functionality. The solution is easy to operate and it is more mature than the cloud solution provided by SAP."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework."
"Overall, I would rate SAP Process Orchestration a 10 out of 10."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"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."
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 solution is scalable."
"It is stable and scalable."
"Kofax RPA's best feature is its high success percentage in picking up information from documents, especially where the DPI is really low."
"Initially, the most effective features for process automation were website automation related to web auditing, SharePoint implementations, and automated management of information."
"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."
"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."
More Tungsten RPA pros
 

Cons

"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."
"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."
"It requires some maintenance."
"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."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
More SAP Process Orchestration cons
"There is really nothing special about the capabilities of this product."
"Kofax RPA's UI could be more user-friendly."
"RPA technology is constantly changing, and sometimes Kofax lags behind."
"The product has some constraints and performance issues."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"This product has room for improvement in support of aviation. The interface could be improved in the next release."
"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."
More Tungsten RPA cons
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"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 pricing for this solution is fine."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."
"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."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
More SAP Process Orchestration pricing and cost advice
"Kofax RPA is moderately priced but expensive in comparison to UiPath and Power Automate."
"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 cost depends on the number of licenses and the number of RPAs."
"Kofax's prices are pretty reasonable."
"Kofax RPA's licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."
"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)."
"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."
