Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"There is a module designer, that one is very powerful and it creates very good reports.""The shared repository allows for cross-functional cooperation instead of doing things in a silo. You can operate cross-functionally and really work end-to-end, instead of dividing everything up on a functional basis.""It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""It has the ability to scale up, as well as integrate with other systems within the organization to get real-time information from dashboards and reports.""BPA, the modeling tool, is the main module used because of our need for documentation.""ARIS is probably the most mature product in terms of modeling an enterprise architecture so that it has context.""The tool defines the processes. It's the documentation of everything.""There is a really powerful reporting API that allows you to create almost any kind of report you want out of your process and document repository."

"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction.""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 not so complex to design what you need to.""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.""Data extraction and auto-classification are great features.""Great with recognition providing a high level of confidence.""Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding.""Now it has an OCR, optical character recognition, engine where it can extract data from the document."

Cons
"Some improvements have been done, after Software AG acquired ARIS, but I don't believe it's still integrated with the other tool WebMethods in a perfect way.""One of the biggest challenges is to realistically enable the defined structures of the processes that you have in ARIS documented, and then actually implement them in the business.""The tool needs to improve its support since they take long to respond.""I had a hard time with ARIS's access and licensing policy. It requires you to pay for each step you want to take forward with the solution.""One thing that could be improved is regarding the handling of the content itself. Maybe ARIS could provide a set of best practices, or best processes, so that people do not have to start from scratch.""The solution is difficult and not very exciting to learn.""The tool's installation and configuration part needs to improve.""The pricing of the solution can be improved and the initial setup should be made easy."

More ARIS BPA Cons →

"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features.""Table line item extraction is not possible through Quick Capture.""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.""They provide sufficient but not excellent technical support. Perhaps there is a point where they could use some improvement.""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.""Sometimes there isn't enough accuracy when it comes to extracts.""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 is slightly more expensive than other tools."
  • "Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive."
  • "It has a perpetual license. You pay once in a lifetime for the volume of scans you will do and the number of users you will have. You can have participants or regular users, and you can have developers and administrators. So, once you purchase it, it is for a lifetime, and then every year, you have to pay for the maintenance. There is an annual maintenance cost, which is about 18% of the licensing cost."
  • "The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."
