The flexibility to use already-developed components is really good. You can use it for Excel-related operations and other things.

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 handles UIs via the browser well. If it's not possible, they have other features like modeling screen scrapes, etc.

The ability to script information from websites is most valuable. It also seems to be fairly robust and reasonably easy to manage on a server-based deployment. We have a number of robots operating on the central server.

You can automate browsing tasks without needing a server connection. The platform provides its browser, allowing you to run anything inside it.

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.

Its documentation is not widely available on the web. They should work on the availability of its documentation. In Automation Anywhere, there is a feature called Discovery Bot that automatically records the process steps and suggests a possible bot. I am not sure if such a feature is available in Kofax. If it is not available, it will be very good to have this feature.

RPA technology is constantly changing, and sometimes Kofax lags behind.

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.

The product should improve desktop automation, which is hard to configure. It needs to have custom connectors. It is the only advantage that Microsoft Power Platform has over Kofax RPA. It has more than 800 custom connectors.

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.

I would like to see them further enhance the OCR, specifically in the multi-language support.

We've faced a few challenges with Tungsten RPA. One issue I recall was with sending emails that needed multiple attachments. At the time, the feature only allowed attaching one file at a time. We discussed this with Tungsten RPA, and they planned to add multi-attachment capability to their backlog. I'm not sure if it's been upgraded since then. The solution's desktop automation is tricker.
