Rajneesh Prajapati - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Rpa Consultant at Accely Consulting
Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions
I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

Helps automate processes but needs to offer different licensing models to users
Right now, I am not working on process mining at the minute. Before I switched to the company, I worked extremely closely with the process mining tool from UiPath, SAP BTP, and the process mining that they had created. I am working with MuleSoft Automation and Anypoint. We are not doing any sort of process mining at the minute, but in my company, because MuleSoft is one of the only RPA tools that we are looking at, we have another application called Appian that we are trying to explore now. Appian has process mining capability, which is why we thought we would look at it along with AI capabilities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has been very user-friendly."
"The main features of the solution are the IQ Bot and web-based automation."
"The most valuable feature of BotFarm is the fact that we can use escalations when we need more computer power to fulfill all embargo that we receive in one day."
"The solution reduces manual data errors and improves data accuracy"
"There are not many challenges when setting up this solution, and there is a good amount of documentation to go with it."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the Excel automation and support for SharePoint."
"The most valuable features I have found to be the screen scraping and the integration with third-party solutions."
"The solution is very manageable."
"Scalability is fine. It is pretty nice."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It is remarkably easy to configure and code, and it doesn't require an extensive technical background or coding expertise."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Contextor is that everyone is in one place in the program that I need."
"The initial setup of SAP Contextor is easy."
"Most of the details are already in the help portal and SAP notes are available. It is well documented as part of the product support."
"Contextor is a good solution for a Citrix environment. It's the first with this tool. Other tools provide the same functionality, but not with the Citrix environment."
"The standout features of SAP Intelligent RPA are its flexibility and integration capabilities."
 

Cons

"There should be more support for developing in environments such as Citrix and Linux."
"An area for improvement in BotFarm is that the communication between the Control Room and the Bot Client Missions isn't utilized well. There's also the issue with PCI DSS compliance or certain regulations that require a set of configurations that are not fully supported by BotFarm. The product should be certified or designed according to the required regulations in the finance industry to make it better."
"Normally we need to monitor the solution using an AWS console and the control room. We would like to have a standardized dashboard to see all the information in one place."
"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."
"The OCR command needs to improve. This feature is used to convert the extracted data from an image file. While converting this file I was facing a lot of issues with the data because it was getting lost and some of the data which was extracted was mismatched. The data loss was rated as a nine and the data accuracy was a massive decrease and was up to 80%."
"The image processing capabilities definitely need to be improved."
"The discovery suite that they just acquired could be included."
"The solution can improve the accuracy of hand-written data reading"
"There should be more of an error, like a proper error feature, in future releases. Sometimes, we don't understand why that automation is not learning what, like, where it is stuck, or what is the reason like, or what is the criteria we are missing to add. So a proper error message would be helpful."
"One way SAP Intelligent RPA could improve is by integrating built-in DI services for document processing."
"For potential features or improvements, one aspect I would suggest enhancing is the flexibility of the extraction process."
"The initial setup is of medium complexity. It is neither too hard nor too simple. You need some background in SAP and an understanding of it."
"SAP Contextor could improve by automating some processes."
"I would like to see a better capacity for unstructured data, for example, PDF, or text within images."
"I found that the SAP scripting of a program is easier than SAP Contextor."
"The tool's licensing has been kind of a challenge...At the moment, the tool does not offer different licensing models to users."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing for this solution can be better."
"The pricing model could be simplified."
"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."
"The starter price is free."
"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."
"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."
"I am very happy with the pricing."
"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."
"The initial cost might seem higher, but over time, with continued use over five or ten years, the cost tends to decrease, making it a more economical choice."
"This is not a tool or software with a license as others are. The SaaS model is based on the usage of the tool."
"The pricing is not that expensive. It is manageable."
"It all comes with a bundle right now. Having advanced features, it is competitively priced."
