Mohamed Salah Baccouche - PeerSpot reviewer
Way more efficient for debugging than other tools but the UI is complicated
The UI is more complicated than other tools. In Power Automate, it doesn't even feel like you are working because the tool does the job for you. But in the solution, there are studio, process, and object interfaces and you have to decode your own objects. The free objects that are predefined are not good compared to other tools. There is still a lot of work to do on the solution's intelligent automation part.

All-in-one platform, simple billing processes, and reliable technical support
We use Kofax TotalAgility for accounts payable We are currently processing over 60,000 invoices per month with no more than 25 individuals. The most valuable features of this solution are automation, ease of billing processes with the process net, and low to no code development. The form…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It works very well for batch processing at the backend. Scalability-wise, it is very robust. It is also stable."
"We find many of Blue Prism's features valuable. One recent one we're using is Decipher IDP. We're also looking at a couple of other tools and working on proofs of concept. Decipher IDP helps us create templates to extract data from images and PDF files, which is especially useful for processing invoices accurately and feeding that information into our systems."
"The multi-bot architecture is very flexible."
"One of the most powerful features in Blue Prism is exception handling. It's one of the features that really differentiates it from other platforms."
"The most valuable feature is that people with zero coding knowledge can use Blue Prism very well."
"Technical support has been responsive when we have needed their assistance."
"We've started to use some of the new features such as translation, cognitive, and we are finding them useful. We are also finding API integrations very useful."
"The tool is very technically sound."
"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."
"What I find most valuable in Kofax TotalAgility is its OCR feature. I also find its workflow and business process management capabilities valuable. Kofax TotalAgility also has good integration with other solutions and has an API call feature."
"One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document."
"Kofax TotalAgility is stable."
"The most valuable features of this solution are automation, ease of billing processes with the process net, and low to no code development."
"It is user-friendly and has good documentation. It's good for developing communication and has a lot of the APIs needed for this purpose. There aren't a lot of software options available from this time period; this is the only one from 2013 that has this concept of microservices."
"Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding."
"Data extraction and auto-classification are great features."
 

Cons

"There is a need for a co-management product to manage multiple developers using Blue Prism."
"The UI is more complicated than other tools."
"They should add more OCR engines to it."
"I believe that there could be more community support, or there could be more support for developers like us from Blue Prism. Blue Prism provides a lot of documentation, but there is a lack of support."
"They improve more in OCR, to read text more correctly, currently can say OCR in blue prism only works for less cases and is only effective 50%. so mostly OCR's of Blue prism is very less used and other API's or tools are integrated with Blue prism for OCR techniques."
"They should incorporate more functionalities in the analytics tool."
"If that bot is running 24/7, we have to allocate people 24/7, 24 hours a day. The cost of support can be quite high."
"Blue Prism could be compatible with Oracle's suite of ERPs. We have seen some issues related to this. They could do much better with their intelligent document processing solution. They're pretty behind and don't have attended bots."
"It would be nice if the tool has more connectors to different systems. It is an expensive solution."
"They provide sufficient but not excellent technical support. Perhaps there is a point where they could use some improvement."
"Kofax TotalAgility could improve the OTR engine. The page OTR engine is not accurate in predicting the data properly. If you provide many features which are good for business process management without an accurate OTR engine people will not want it."
"Kofax needs to improve the low-code or citizen developers."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."
"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."
"The Transformation Designer of KTA can be made better."
"The one thing I would like to see more of right now: is a simplified form creation. That would be the most significant improvement I would like to see in their product."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a bit higher in cost as compared to Automation Anywhere and UiPath. The rate also differs from client to client. Margins are also important when it comes to costing and licensing. There are some additional costs involved besides the standard licensing costs. You have the development team cost, which includes the project manager, development team, analyst, and testers. You also need a team manager. You also have the tools cost, architecture cost, platform cost, and the licensing cost of each bot."
"This is a very expensive product and this is the reason that they're losing their market share."
"In the Philippines, fewer companies are using Blue Prism because of its cost. I don't know the price, but I know that its price is higher than UiPath."
"The tool is expensive."
"The solution is not that expensive and a five-year license costs about 20k euros."
"There is a one-time purchase fee for this solution."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis."
"To use Blue Prism, there is a need to pay INR 15,000 per customer."
"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."
"Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive."
"The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."
"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."
"It is slightly more expensive than other tools."
