Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."Appian also has very flexible local integration."
"In terms of interface, it's very good. In terms of infrastructure, it's amazing and already using multiple tools behind the scenes. It's a low-code platform, so it's very easy to implement."
"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."
"It has very flexible adaptation and the ability to save and automate processes."
"The most valuable feature is business automation."
"The technical support is excellent."
"There is a version coming out every six months with performance improvements."
"The most valuable features of Appian are workflow management and the ease with which you can build the UI."
"The tool is low code which saves you from a developer."
"The product is really good, and it is easy to use. It comes with multiple integrations. The solution keeps up with the trend of Microsoft Copilot and AI."
"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."
"It's a growing tool that offers a complete package of BPM, case management, and capture capabilities."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a single package. They provide you with OCR capabilities, BPM capabilities, and case manager features."
"Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a great design tool for reading handwritten invoices."
"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."
"The solution needs more features. For example, a way to connect to our viewing database, to record, and more interface and component design."
"A point of improvement would be the SAIL forms. The built-in tool used to generate forms does not have debugging support (to view local variables as they change on live preview, and step-by-step valuation) which is a big drawback for form development. Moreover, the script language used to build SAIL forms does not support inheritance or lambda expressions (functions as arguments of other functions), which makes the code base more verbose."
"The reporting is not as good as in similar products. They could also improve the dashboards."
"The biggest areas of improvement would be in facilitating team development, DevOps, and integration with typical tools used in enterprise development (Jenkins, Subversion, etc.)"
"Sometimes, clients expect us to implement ERP using Appian, which is very complicated. In such cases, I don't believe that Appian is a good tool for that."
"Form creation and SAIL proprietary language still basically require programming. The claim a BA type can do everything is hogwash."
"The product’s pricing could be improved from the developers' perspective."
"It would be nice if you could create your own customized apps when the business needed them."
"The Transformation Designer of KTA can be made better."
"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."
"It’s not truly low code yet, as every two or three projects, you will have a situation where you have to go behind the essential things. You will definitely still need to customize."
"The pricing for Kofax TotalAgility could be more attractive, particularly the cloud version of the solution which was offered to my company. This is its area for improvement."
"Kofax needs to improve the low-code or citizen developers."
"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."
"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."
