Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Provides valuable tools working in integration with RPA tools.""The flexibility to use already-developed components is really good. You can use it for Excel-related operations and other things.""The features that we have found the most valuable are the integration of different third-party support and productivity services.""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.""Kofax RPA's best feature is its high success percentage in picking up information from documents, especially where the DPI is really low.""You can automate browsing tasks without needing a server connection. The platform provides its browser, allowing you to run anything inside it.""The pricing of the solution is quite good.""The product provides end-to-end solutions for different business problems."

"The ability to connect web applications to trigger actions in another app after having enriched, formatted, delayed, grouped, and filtered is really valuable for many businesses.""The most valuable feature of Zapier is it saves me time doing repetitive tasks.""With the previous CRM we were using – the Google Ads landing pages we had – we were collecting leads manually. That process was not efficient and took a sales team a lot of time to insert these leads manually. Currently, the process is smooth and we use Zapier to collect the leads for us.""Zapier handles everything under the sun that you would think you need in automation. It is the most mature integration platform and service on the market.""We can connect Zapier with Zoho CRM for lead generation. I like the tool's drag and drop feature.""The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is very intuitive and has a very flat learning curve.""The product's most valuable feature is automation.""The connection between Facebook lead forms and MailChimp integrations is the most valuable feature."

Cons
"Automation with the latest websites is not effective. The support of newer websites developed using new technologies would improve this solution.""The solution could use some AI integrated features.""The solution needs to be scalable.""There is really nothing special about the capabilities of this product.""Exception handling needs to be improved.""RPA technology is constantly changing, and sometimes Kofax lags behind.""Kofax RPA's UI could be more user-friendly.""The interface could be better from a usability standpoint."

More Tungsten RPA Cons →

"The solution does not work properly when we apply filters and we get errors.""The user interface for Zapier could be improved. It also takes some time to sync the data between different environments.""I think that this solution should have more apps connected to it.""Zapier could be a little faster, but that might not be possible. I would encourage Zapier to make more API endpoints for each application""I would like to see them improve the Quickbase integration. Currently, it only allows triggering actions when records are added, but it would be more useful if we could also trigger actions when records are modified or deleted.""Some apps are not available yet. For instance, a connection with Joomla! would be great. In general, all the most-used apps are available, but I bumped into Joomla! with a client.""After mapping them out, and they'd worked for a while, I've had Zapier fail.""My biggest concern with Zapier would be their pricing strategy."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "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."
  • "Price is not a problem, because they are a competitor and we have a special rate."
  • "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."
  • "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)."
  • "Kofax's prices are pretty reasonable."
  • "There is a standard license needed to use Kofax RPA and the price is reasonable."
  • "Kofax RPA is moderately priced but expensive in comparison to UiPath and Power Automate."
  • "I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."

  • "There is a free plan that is, of course, limited. However, it allows you to understand and check true scenarios for a while."
  • "Think your Zaps through to make sure you don't use more Zaps than you need."
  • "It's very straightforward licensing. There's only one cost you have to pay, and if you want a relevant pricing plan, I think you have two or three different models or packages which include the number of notifications or Zaps, as they call it, that you can program."
  • "The price of Zapier is approximately $75 monthly."
  • "Zapier is a paid service. Its license renews monthly, and Zapier will downgrade your subscription to the free version when your credit card doesn't have funds. That significantly impacts your service because everything halts completely. Zapier doesn't have any hidden costs."
  • "Per task, there is a monthly plan involving 15 euros...Also, in different forms, they just give you the ability to use different features. They charge 18.58 euros for the first standard plan, which includes 750 tasks. So, it is about 25 cents per task."
  • "It's very affordable."
  • "The least expensive plan is $24 a month, and you can go all the way to $800 a month if you're a huge company using many tasks."

    Overview
    Tungsten RPA offers an efficient solution for streamlining business processes through Robotic Process Automation (RPA), which utilizes software "bots" to automate tasks like data entry and form filling. With Tungsten RPA, organizations can enjoy increased efficiency as repetitive tasks are automated, freeing up human resources for more strategic work. Moreover, the software ensures improved accuracy by performing tasks consistently and error-free, leading to reduced costs and enhanced compliance with regulations. Key features include a low-code design environment for easy workflow creation, intelligent document processing for handling unstructured data, automated process discovery, and flexible deployment options suitable for on-premises, cloud, or hybrid environments. Tungsten RPA presents a comprehensive solution for optimizing operational efficiency and driving business success through automation.

    Zapier is a tool for primarily non-technical users to connect together web apps.

    An integration between two apps is called a Zap. A Zap is made up of a Trigger and one or more Actions or Searches.

    Whenever the trigger happens in one app, Zapier will automatically perform the actions or searches in another app in order.

    Zaps are very lightweight and easy to set up. Zaps do not import or export old data (they only operate on new items created after the Zap is enabled). Zaps are also not kept in sync ("two way syncing") after the Zap is triggered.

    Zaps are deceivingly simple if you're used to dealing with complex and difficult integrations. Their simplicity is what enables anyone to create them.
