Featured Reviews

Anabel Marco - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Renjith Raghunathan - PeerSpot reviewer
A solution that requires minimal efforts to run multiple activities at the same time
It would be helpful to add more documentation. Currently, there are not many documents available on Google that explain each activity and how to use it or how to use the parameters and pass values. This is an area that could be improved. If I were to add something that would make my life easier in a new release of INTELLIBOT, then it would be making improvements to the way it is interacting with Java. The only challenge with using INTELLIBOT is the way it works with OCR, which can make creating OCR icons very challenging. In addition, there may be challenges in using the Citrix environment.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ability to connect to websites and pull data is the solution's most valuable feature."
"We have found the pricing to be very reasonable."
"This tool has machine learning and voice recognition and computer vision, which are both quite useful aspects. These aren't available in other tools. It's a good addition to this tool and it gives the solution an edge on the market."
"The most valuable features of Fortra's Automate include its FTP functionality and file manipulation capabilities."
"The best feature of Automate is its ease of use, which is a major selling point."
"Fortra's Automate has effectively replaced the workload of an entire employee, saving us significant time and money."
"I would rate the technical support as a nine out of ten because it is quite fast and courteous."
"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."
"For machine learning, there is an in-built document and text classification feature in INTELLIBOT. That is unlike other RPA tools where one needs to procure a separate license. Besides this, the application is easy to use. One valuable feature is the drag-and-drop feature for AI and email intelligence. It is easier than using UiPath's IQ bot."
"The replay of the automation is an awesome feature."
"There's a helpful community available through the portal."
"This solution is easy to use and requires little coding knowledge."
"It is a stable product. We have been using it for 15 months now, and there have been no issues."
"The return on investment is pretty good because the license cost is cheaper than other RPA tools in the market."
"I have found the most valuable feature to be the straightforward visual editor, it has close to no code required. It allowed us to deploy the email monitoring in this couple of weeks."
"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."
"Kofax handles UIs via the browser well. If it's not possible, they have other features like modeling screen scrapes, etc."
"It is very simple and easy to learn compared to any other RPA tools such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere and Blue Prism."
"It is stable and scalable."
"This is a stable platform and we did not encounter any big problems."
"The tool's most valuable feature is web browser automation, which makes it easy to interact with any website. We can assemble a robot in a few hours with web automation, depending on its complexity."
"The most valuable feature of Kofax RPA is the simplicity of automating tasks."
"You can automate browsing tasks without needing a server connection. The platform provides its browser, allowing you to run anything inside it."
 

Cons

"I find that most important features are strong, however, there is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."
"It's possible that they could use a stronger community for seeking guidance and help."
"I believe we need to test various OCR tools that assist in evaluating, let's say, six different customer resyncs. We analyze their spending patterns and documentations, but current OCR support has limitations, requiring highly standardized documents, which isn't always the case. With a more advanced OCR system, we could improve processes related to credit risk management and legal matters. We're exploring how to integrate Fortra's Automate with our CRM platform, taking cues from instances where Salesforce seamlessly merged with Automate. However, we use a different CRM, Insight for New Enterprise, and we're seeking ways to connect the automation process within our CRM. We aim for the automation to continue smoothly, even in instances where traditional automation methods might face hurdles."
"Error messages should be better. For error status, there should be better documentation because a lot of times, error messages that you get are quite vague. For example, you get a message saying that the workflow has run into an unknown status, which is vague. It just tells you that it failed, but you don't know how or why it failed. It makes debugging difficult."
"The OCR for Hebrew text needs to be improved."
"There is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."
"We really need a free development environment for customers. Building and testing automation on production isn't ideal."
"The technical support could be better. We suffer from language barriers, as we are in Argentina."
"I would like to see the cognitive marketing platform improved."
"The solution is heavily dependant on scripts, such as JavaScript or any other external script that needs to be a part of the system. If they want to grow, the scripting dependency should go away. They should have built-in libraries to pull in work from."
"The first pain point of INTELLIBOT was with the development. Whenever the company developed any command, they published it directly onto their SQL site, and our current automation got auto-updated. The second pain point was with the action set. It could be stronger. Moreover, if I am doing UiPath automation, I have to do it with the Internal Report for now."
"A couple of times, we noticed that some bugs caused the bot to go in the wrong flow."
"Has limited functionality and uses extensive resources."
"The trigger actions need to be more robust."
"Currently, there are not many documents available on Google that explain each activity and how to use it or how to use the parameters and pass values."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"The solution needs to be scalable."
"It needs a free training portal for anybody on the internet to use so that they can get an idea of what the possibilities are."
"We are on version 10.6, and the current version seems to be 11. Kofax is cycling the capabilities of the product very quickly. One of the difficulties has been to actually keep up with the capabilities as they've evolved. On the one hand, it is good that the product is getting better, but on the other hand, it is difficult to implement the best way with a product that is evolving constantly."
"This product has room for improvement in support of aviation. The interface could be improved in the next release."
"Automating systems based on Citrix, where using AI or OCR-based capture of a screen, presents challenges."
"The technical support must be improved."
"There is really nothing special about the capabilities of this product."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."
"I like the way this solution is priced because you can buy a license, or you can buy the software outright."
"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."
"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."
"Compared to other products, the pricing model for this solution is much more convenient, flexible, and adaptable to the Portuguese reality."
"While solutions like UiPath and Blue Prism cost around $11,000-$12,000 for each license, this product costs around $7,000 and you can keep it forever."
"The cost is a bit high for a small business like ours, but we manage with Fortra's Automate."
"It comes with a package that costs approximately $20,000 USD per year."
"The solution requires a license and we purchased one annually. We were satisfied with the price."
"It is quite cheap. In the year 2019, it was $1000 for a year."
"INTELLIBOT with the DPA costs approximately $1,500 USD."
"At the time, one license was $5,000 USD. If we needed to negotiate for more licenses, we could negotiate a bit on the price."
"Price is not a problem, because they are a competitor and we have a special rate."
"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."
"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."
"The solution’s license is not expensive."
"Kofax RPA's licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"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."
"The cost depends on the number of licenses and the number of RPAs."
