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.

Effective data transformation and integration in complex environments with high functionality
Something that could be improved in WSO2 Enterprise Integrator is that the problem is not a lack of capability or functionalities. The problem is that it is a very complex environment. To put your hand on this environment is a very demanding task. This is the real problem. The problem is not about the product, but about the complexity to manage, to configure, to decide what to do. I have some experience using SAP R/3. It seems to me something similar. When you have to configure a situation with a client, especially for a client not in an industrial sector, but in a service sector, it is quite usual that you are in trouble for some reason. This is always the story that I found in the implementations I have done. Maybe there are only three or four big problems, in some other cases there are more than that, but this is the situation usually. For WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, not the same, but I must say it is quite often there is a need to put together some pieces and make it work in a coordinated way.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is very simple and easy to learn compared to any other RPA tools such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere and Blue Prism."
"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."
"The most valuable feature of Kofax RPA is the simplicity of automating tasks."
"The features that we have found the most valuable are the integration of different third-party support and productivity services."
"It's a good product."
"Initially, the most effective features for process automation were website automation related to web auditing, SharePoint implementations, and automated management of information."
"The OCR was quite stable and flexible."
"Kofax RPA's best feature is its high success percentage in picking up information from documents, especially where the DPI is really low."
"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide."
"WSO2 Enterprise Integrator may cost you about twenty-five thousand dollars annually per year compared to IBM Cloud Pak, which would cost you around one million dollars."
"The built-in connectors help with quick connectivity to the platforms, and we are using this for both our banking and insurance clients."
"The installation process is easy."
"It has improved our time management because development is quicker."
"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."
"It's a very complete product. It allows us to network security and add more layers of security to the system."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
 

Cons

"The technical support must be improved."
"There have been a lot of issues we have had that have taken weeks, if not months to fix and the support is not satisfactory."
"This product has room for improvement in support of airplanes and aviation."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"The product needs more AI capabilities."
"I would like to see them further enhance the OCR, specifically in the multi-language support."
"Automation with the latest websites is not effective. The support of newer websites developed using new technologies would improve this solution."
"The interface could be better from a usability standpoint."
"The configuration of the product is not an easy task for everyone."
"They should release upgrades more frequently."
"The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems."
"You cannot include the validation of XPath."
"The customization can be a bit difficult."
"There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting."
"If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me."
"The scalability is not strong. If you want to scale it you have to install multiple servers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Kofax RPA is moderately priced but expensive in comparison to UiPath and Power Automate."
"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."
"The cost depends on the number of licenses and the number of RPAs."
"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)."
"I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."
"There is a standard license needed to use Kofax RPA and the price is reasonable."
"The solution’s license is not expensive."
"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."
"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."
"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."
"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
"It is a low-cost solution."
"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."
