We performed a comparison between Appian and Tungsten TotalAgility based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."The technical support is excellent."
"The solution's most valuable features are the regular periodic and quarterly updates, they are very useful updates. They keep improving the solution more often, and that helps the platform or code always be up to date with the latest features."
"Appian's most valuable feature is that we can create end-to-end process workflows with minimum turnaround."
"There is a version coming out every six months with performance improvements."
"Appian has many valuable features, the first being the ease of development—rapid development. Second, the process of learning the product and tool is faster when compared to its peers in the market. It's closer to low-code, and while it's still not very easy, it's more low-code than other products in the industry. Appian has a good user interface, a seamless model user interface, which comes without additional coding. It can also integrate with multiple systems."
"Recently, we added Appian Process Mining, Appian Portals, and now Appian RPA."
"The setup is easy."
"Compared to other code tools that I've seen, Appian has a more robust rules engine"
"The tool is low code which saves you from a developer."
"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."
"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."
"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."
"One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document."
"Data extraction and auto-classification are great features."
"Now it has an OCR, optical character recognition, engine where it can extract data from the document."
"Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding."
"Appian could include other applications that we could reuse for other customers, CRM for example."
"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."
"Appian could improve their customer-facing initiatives."
"The ability of the interface to load automatic data is not great."
"Appian could be improved by making it a strict, no-code platform with free-built process packs."
"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."
"We have clients that want to use Office 365, Microsoft Analytics, and Power Apps. Appian just isn't the same as using something specifically designed to cater to the Microsoft Suite."
"The graphical user interface could be easier to use. It should be simplified."
"It would be nice if the tool has more connectors to different systems. It is an expensive solution."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."
"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."
"There needs to be more accessible certification and better pricing."
"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."
"The Transformation Designer of KTA can be made better."
"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."
"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."
