Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Pega, Apache and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."It is really simple to create a new app, and I like the data-centric aspect of the BPM tool."
"We appreciate the drag and drop functionality and the easy to access plug and play features."
"Appian is a very low code platform. It's very easy to learn and use."
"The technical support is excellent."
"It has good integrations. We were looking for out-of-the-box integration with both on-prem and publicly accessible data sources. We needed integration with the cloud, OData, our REST API feed, and then on-prem passthrough to go to a SQL database or on-prem APIs through Azure local deployment, etc."
"SAIL (Self-Assembling Interface Layer), a scripting language provided by Appian. It is the equivalent of JS and CSS. It allows creation of complex UIs which are also responsive. With SAIL, we have a single language for both the UI logic and its appearance. UI components can be built as reusable components and used in multiple UI interfaces."
"Process culture is making noise inside the organization because now, everybody knows that their time is being monitored."
"It's heavy on business processing in terms of logic, process workflows, and primarily on the process design modeler. Appian is really great at that. In terms of the full stack set from a low-code platform perspective, it's definitely an eye opener since it can be deployed via mobile app and on the web as well."
"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."
"The tool is low code which saves you from a developer."
"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."
"Essentially, Kofax TotalAgility as a whole is quite nice. As of now, we've only been able to use and explore its document classification and extraction capabilities. We haven't explored and used the case management capability yet, but the scan and capture capabilities we've been using heavily and those are quite good. Our solutions are mainly around those areas of Kofax TotalAgility. We haven't explored the product a lot, but the capabilities we've explored are good."
"Data extraction and auto-classification are great features."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a great design tool for reading handwritten invoices."
"It's not so complex to design what you need to."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a single package. They provide you with OCR capabilities, BPM capabilities, and case manager features."
"The biggest areas of improvement would be in facilitating team development, DevOps, and integration with typical tools used in enterprise development (Jenkins, Subversion, etc.)"
"We would like to have more granular control for interface styling."
"It is also not easy to learn. Training tutorials could be improved."
"Lacks integration with other products."
"There should be more flexibility for the developers to choose the look and feel of the UI. They should have a better ability to design their widgets and customize them with different colors, shapes, and sizes. That is a limitation that could be improved upon."
"One of the areas that Appian is working on is to improve its UI capabilities and give more flexibility to the UI."
"While Appian is generally flexible, it's rigid in some ways. It takes longer to do something that isn't available out of the box."
"Offline capabilities and responsive capabilities could be better. The mobility features of Appian platform are still evolving."
"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."
"There needs to be more accessible certification and better pricing."
"Kofax TotalAgility is quite vast and complex as a product. We came from Kofax Capture and Kofax Transformation, then we started learning Kofax TotalAgility, so there are a lot of things that were quite straightforward in the Kofax Capture and Kofax Transformation cross-motion modules, but to do those in Kofax TotalAgility was a bit more complex or quite long-winded and could be improved. In the next release of Kofax TotalAgility, it would be good to have a straightforward low-code or no-code process because there were instances we struggled with having to put logic into a script or a .NET script, then calling that script, instead of the process being low-code, no-code."
"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."
"Kofax should improve its handwritten extractions."
"Kofax needs to improve the low-code or citizen developers."
"Table line item extraction is not possible through Quick Capture."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."
