Drag-and-drop workflows have accelerated cross-database analysis and simplified daily reporting

I consider user interface modernization in Toad Data Point to be an area for improvement; it could be enhanced with a more modern, web-based look and smoother navigation, focusing on better UX and dashboard customization. Real-time collaboration could benefit from trying Git-style integration, which would strengthen team collaboration features. Performance with large data sets sometimes slows down our workflows, so implementing a better optimization engine specifically for big data workflows could enhance functionality, along with improvements in cloud-native deployment for better browser access. For the dashboarding feature, I believe Toad Data Point could improve by offering more interactive dashboards and advanced visualizations beyond the current basic charts and pivots. Implementing capabilities such as drill-down, interactive filters, and dynamic parameter selections would align more with BI-style interactivity. Visualizations compared to tools such as Microsoft Power BI or Tableau are quite limited, so enhancing this area with cloud-hosted interactive dashboards and seamless auto-refresh options would greatly improve user experience.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best thing about it is its automation features."

"Toad Data Point plays a crucial role in data-driven decision-making processes by facilitating data access and retrieval operations, data analysis, validations, quality checks, and performance monitoring for scenarios such as slow running queries, high database loads, or system bottlenecks, which are valuable for troubleshooting and debugging."

"Toad Data Point made our query testing a lot faster and more efficient, and we saw a lot of time-saving in our development process."

"What I like the most about Toad Data Point is the automation feature, which is mostly useful for us, and I have not found it in any other systems that I have worked with so far, and it can easily schedule any automation tasks that we provide."

"I have never experienced any issues with customer service."

"I would estimate that Toad Data Point saves me about 30 to 70 percent of my time depending on the work type."

"The most valuable features of Toad Data are you could write a parameterized query and it wouldn't error out, it would give you the parameters that you could input. The auto-formatting feature is useful because it was great for keeping your queries neat and understandable. The auto comment, and uncomment toggles that you could do were convenient."

"We had an unsupported version of Hyperion that needed to be replaced, and Toad Data Point allowed us to quickly transition to a similar solution and to easily convert all of our preexisting queries (more than 300) to the new solution with minimum effort."

More Toad Data Point pros

"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."

"I would definitely recommend this solution."

"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, and if you take the whole package with the extra products you can digitize it using RPA and also by using the other products they provide."

"We use Kofax effectively and I'm happy with it."

"It is stable and scalable."

"The most valuable feature is the robotic process."

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

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

More Tungsten RPA pros

Cons

"What could be improved is probably the user interface."

"I used their report writing a little bit, however, it could improve since it's not a really good report writer and it's a little clunky."

"It's not user-friendly. Once you start using it, you eventually get to know the features."

"Toad Data could improve by having additional features, such as query prediction. This could help someone who's not the strongest programmer. If the software could help them write queries correctly it would be very helpful, especially for small development teams or teams that lack the input skills necessary to write and program efficiently."

"The Mac license is incredibly expensive. It is 1,600 dollars each, which is more than the Windows version. Scalability is difficult when it is that costly."

"On the scheduling server, some scheduled reports just sit there and never execute for the first time. After manually executing the first time, they run with no issues."

"Toad Data could improve by having additional features, such as query prediction."

"I used their report writing a little bit, however, it could improve since it's not a really good report writer and it's a little clunky."

More Toad Data Point cons

"The HR and IT areas of the product need to be improved."

"We've faced a few challenges with Tungsten RPA. One issue I recall was with sending emails that needed multiple attachments. At the time, the feature only allowed attaching one file at a time. We discussed this with Tungsten RPA, and they planned to add multi-attachment capability to their backlog. I'm not sure if it's been upgraded since then. The solution's desktop automation is tricker."

"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."

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

"The product could be improved if they would use AI integrated robots."

"The product needs more AI capabilities."

"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. "

"The scalability has room for improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Toad Data Point was approximately $500 annually."

"The Mac licenses are expensive, costing 1,600 dollars each. This is much higher than for the Windows version. I maintain a very limited number of licenses due to this cost."

"The cost of this product is reasonable."

"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."

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

"Kofax's prices are pretty reasonable."

"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."

"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."

"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."
