Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The key role for Glue is that it hosts our metadata before rolling out our actual data. This is the major advantage of using this solution and our clients client have been very satisfied with it."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"AWS Glue is fast and managed by AWS. Hence, you don't have to worry about capacity and the performance of Glue jobs. It has integrations with other data stores of AWS. The product offers metadata management, logging, and ETL processing capabilities. It comes with a powerful feature, Glue Studio, which helps to do queries interactively within the community. It is a managed service and very secure. Another popular and mature service is S3."
"One of the best features of the solution is its ability to easily integrate with other AWS services."
"Glue is a NoSQL-based data ETL tool that has some advantages over IIS and ISAs."
"I like the fact that AWS Glue works with Python scripts."
"It is a stable and scalable solution."
"AWS Glue is a stable and easy-to-use solution."
"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."
"The product provided all the security controls that we asked them."
"The product provides end-to-end solutions for different business problems."
"Provides valuable tools working in integration with RPA tools."
"The most valuable feature of Kofax RPA is the simplicity of automating tasks."
"The pricing of the solution is quite good."
"The most valuable features are workflow and process automation."
"The drag and drop functionality is quite good."
"There should be more connectors for different databases."
"Only people who can code, either in Java or Python, can use the product freely. Those who don't know Java or Python might find using AWS Glue difficult."
"Cost-wise, AWS Glue is expensive, so that's an area for improvement. The process for setting up the solution was also complex, which is another area for improvement."
"We face performance issues when using AWS Glue for data transformation and integration."
"The solution could be cheaper. The price of the solution is an area that needs improvement."
"The interface for AWS Glue could improve, they do not put a lot of details. You can write the code, in PySpark or in Scala, which is a big advantage, it is only easy to use for a developer. It will be difficult for new users to enter the cloud environment."
"The solution's visual ETL tool is of no use for actual implementation."
"The crucial problem with AWS Glue is that it only works with AWS. It is not an agnostic tool like Pentaho. In PowerCenter, we can install the forms from Google and other vendors, but in the case of AWS Glue, we can only use AWS."
"I would like to see them further enhance the OCR, specifically in the multi-language support."
"The interface could be better from a usability standpoint."
"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."
"The product needs more AI capabilities."
"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."
"Kofax RPA needs to improve integration with SAP and Microsoft. The professional services offered by the tool's team is below par. Its licensing needs to be more modular."
"There is really nothing special about the capabilities of this product."
"Kofax RPA could improve web-based automation and there should be a choice of what browser we can use, such as Google Chrome, instead of an inbuilt browser from Kofax RPA. Additionally, Kofax RPA is missing an orchestrator that other solutions have, such as UiPath."
