Anabel Marco

Account Director at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

Automates processes efficiently with cost-effective scaling and robust customer support

Web scraping is quite good since it offers a lot of possibilities. Another important feature for me is its compatibility with MBI, the Power that is ISEQUADO Centers. I appreciate the ability to scale and increase the number of bots or studios without additional expense. Automate's non-reliance on additional orchestrators makes it quite cost-effective.

Lead Software Engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees

Great with recognition and provides a high level of confidence in terms of extraction capabilities

When it comes to machine print, this is an excellent solution with features you don't find in other tools. When dealing with handwritten text they have provided some A2iA locators that require a separate license. Even after implementing that, the handwritten text extraction was not great. Microsoft Azure does better at text extraction. If an organization is looking for OCR without the need to extract anything, then I would suggest a product such as Textract or another free software. If data extraction is needed for additional processes then I would recommend Kofax. I rate this solution eight out of 10

Shamus Cardon

IT Engineer III at a healthcare company with 10,001+ employees

It has improved our accuracy since we are eliminating the human error element. There could be better version control through their web platform.

We only have our engineering team writing code and developing business processes since it is very technical. In terms of data extraction and training the ML models, we deployed that to our accounts payable department, which has fewer technical users than our engineering team. After a handful of training sessions, they were able to get in there and use it with decent accuracy. It could be better, but it is definitely better than nothing. One of the big upgrades that I know is happening in version 10 is an improvement to their tagging interface. That is definitely something that I am excited about to sort of reinvigorate our more non-technical users in information extraction from our documents. There could be better version control through their web platform. That is something that could be improved on. Integration from the IDE, e.g., from WorkFusion Studio directly into Control Tower, would be nice to have too.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We are still in the process of rolling it to production and tweaking it (our AD groups are a mess), but the improvements are priceless. Having users ID's created the same way every time without human error is the best part. We don't need to worry about why groups were not added, user rights not set to folders or missing a private folder being created, typos or just even knowing when things are done and logged."

"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."

"The product effectively handles all the tasks we require."

"Fortra's Automate performs the job effectively and has the capability to alert us of any issues."

"The best feature of Automate is its ease of use, which is a major selling point."

"The solution is continuously adding more integrations to help with workflows and bot and task creation."

"The licensing of the product is very good. You only need to license it once and then you have it forever."

"I actually quite liked the no-coding functionality."

More Automate pros

"The product is really good, and it is easy to use. It comes with multiple integrations. The solution keeps up with the trend of Microsoft Copilot and AI."

"Great with recognition providing a high level of confidence."

"Kofax TotalAgility is stable."

"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."

"It's a growing tool that offers a complete package of BPM, case management, and capture capabilities."

"Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding."

"Kofax TotalAgility is a single package. They provide you with OCR capabilities, BPM capabilities, and case manager features."

"One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document."

More Tungsten TotalAgility pros

"WorkFusion helps by speeding up processes. The process takes time. It has business costs associated because there are people waiting to take the next steps in the process. The end result of waiting, whether it is an internal or external team, is that they are delayed. Therefore, it helps us in speeding up business processes and improving employee morale, as people don't have to do repetitive work anymore."

"The tool itself is easy. I started using it without really having any coding experience... After just a few clicks, it was doing reconciliations for me."

"We have been very pleased with the speed and decisiveness of WorkFusion, which is able to quickly provide a disposition note or escalate to a human for additional review."

"The most valuable features are the recorder because it's user-friendly and the integration with other tools Excel."

"The most valuable feature is that it is easy to use."

"It is useful that WorkFusion provides the entire infrastructure, which allows me to focus on writing code without worrying about maintenance."

"It really does help by either freeing up people's time to focus on more value-added tasks or reducing headcount. We generally have other things that we can get people to do, helping make the employees' work more meaningful since they are not having to do the mundane stuff."

"For automating mundane activities, I can recommend WorkFusion."

More WorkFusion pros

Cons

"It's possible that they could use a stronger community for seeking guidance and help."

"The documentation is not that great."

"I find that most important features are strong, however, there is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."

"There is room for improvement regarding cloud functionality; there are a few missing features, and the logging could be better, especially air logging. We can go into logging events and create our own task, but it would be nice if this were more detailed."

"They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance."

"Some companies have asked for voice integration. This is likely part of the roadmap."

"The solution has a very weak knowledge base."

"I currently have three bugs open with them that I don't know if they are addressed in the new release."

More Automate cons

"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."

"TotalAgility needs to improve communication with ECMs or other file storage systems because TotalAgility does not have file storage. A good improvement would be to create file storage or integrate with other file storage tools that are currently available."

"The Transformation Designer of KTA can be made better."

"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."

"Kofax needs to improve the low-code or citizen developers."

"It would be nice if the tool has more connectors to different systems. It is an expensive solution."

"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."

"They provide sufficient but not excellent technical support. Perhaps there is a point where they could use some improvement."

More Tungsten TotalAgility cons

"I would also like for it to be NLP-based."

"One thing we didn't like was their OCR solution. We felt it's somewhat inefficient."

"So far, we have developed only one automation using machine learning. The results were less than optimal. Part of this could be because of the use case that was selected. Overall, our experience was suboptimal. WorkFusion was an outstanding partner in terms of providing their experts for free to help us on that particular use case, but we still have a lot of things to figure out in terms of how to use its machine learning capability."

"We have executed our robots thousands of times in our enterprise environment. However, in an enterprise environment, WorkFusion has performance problems. It is slow in production."

"This is a Java-based application that takes up a lot of space and when it runs, consumes a lot of memory. This affects the reliability because it gets to a point where it hangs."

"On a scale of 1 - 10 I would rate them a 6. That's not low - that 60%. But as I said, it needs to be upgraded and modified."

"One of the issues that we are facing here in China, is that we cannot access the material for training because it is on YouTube. In China, we do not have access to YouTube."

"Machine learning models for document-heavy processes have room for improvement because they require significant effort to train and update."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is a bit high for a small business like ours, but we manage with Fortra's Automate."

"I believe the price falls within a reasonable range, which significantly influenced our decision regarding the product. This aspect is crucial for any technological solution, especially in our country where enterprises might be hesitant to invest heavily in something untested or uncertain about its practicality and potential returns."

"It has gone up in price. The price of Fortra's Automate has increased since we first started using it. It does a lot but also costs a lot. It was a lot more affordable before Fortra owned the software."

"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."

"Compared to other products, the pricing model for this solution is much more convenient, flexible, and adaptable to the Portuguese reality."

"The pricing is quite reasonable. We can run the process with one bot. The limitation is at the server level because they have some resources, and sometimes that is enough. It isn't too expensive, so you can get a good return off of one, and you can also have a pack of five bots that is quite competitive."

"I'm only involved in running the product and maintaining the systems, so I can't speak to the cost."

"It comes with a package that costs approximately $20,000 USD per year."

More Automate pricing and cost advice

"It has a perpetual license. You pay once in a lifetime for the volume of scans you will do and the number of users you will have. You can have participants or regular users, and you can have developers and administrators. So, once you purchase it, it is for a lifetime, and then every year, you have to pay for the maintenance. There is an annual maintenance cost, which is about 18% of the licensing cost."

"Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive."

"It is slightly more expensive than other tools."

"The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."

"The licensing cost for Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive, though I'm unable to give you the range, the sales representatives of my company say that the product is quite expensive."

"The pricing is fair because WorkFusion's out-of-the-box solution is appealing."

"We have a good deal from WorkFusion. We have an unlimited global licensing deal with WorkFusion. For us, it is a no-worry solution. We can go ahead and use it as much as possible anywhere we need it. If WorkFusion has a different kind of a deal for licensing with others, then their business decisions need to be evaluated based on that."

"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."

"They have a very expensive license compared to any other automation tool. For instance, at $50,000 - $60,000, you can bring in an Automation Anywhere solution. For this solution, you need at least $250,000 to get something going."

"One upgrade took a year to do, from the first server being built to the last bot being migrated. This was because we had to migrate all our existing bots. This is the same process and time frame that we are expecting towards the upcoming upgrade. I will end up spending half a million dollars to do an upgrade."

"The solution was not the cheapest, but it was also not the most expensive. Workfusion was very open to negotiating pricing and to working within the objectives of our firm."

"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."

"We are on an annual contract to use the solution."
