Find out what your peers are saying about ABBYY, Automation Anywhere, UiPath and others in Intelligent Document Processing (IDP)."There are many options and customizations that you can make to each individual extractor that allows you to tweak it for exactly what you need."
"Lexicons where the key vocabulary can be inputted it is very helpful."
"Grooper processes difficult sorts of data and unstructured or semi-structured content very well. It's probably one of the better solutions I've seen compared to other solutions I've seen out there. It does a lot more things like segmentation extraction. It does it a lot better. Grooper has more focus on these types of freeform documents where other solutions are very generic and this is a little more elaborate in what they've done. I think they take it to the next level of extracting freeform data."
"The user interface is easy to use, and the flexibility is noteworthy."
"PDF classification and basic data extraction are useful features."
"The initial setup is easy."
"I personally feel that the c-extraction feature is valuable. After training it for a particular document, we can see the extractions there. Other than that, it has other features like Python scripting in-built, and these are the features that I feel stand out."
"I can train all the instances and properly adjust, inject Python code to find entities, and so on, and so forth."
"The single platform capabilities are most valuable. I don't need to go to another third-party such as Blue Prism or UiPath. They have all these other bolt-on solutions. It is a part of the Automation Anywhere platform. It is all integrated."
"I would say that the best feature is that it has native automation for the US."
"The ease that it provides in extracting vendor invoices, without having to configure them, was the reason for which we had gone with a solution."
"The way that the learning combines with the OCR is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"Grooper is new. It's new beta stuff, so we've had some issues, but that's understandable. Getting the beta product to more of a true release is where it needs improvement. I'm going through training now, so it's hard to judge what they have and don't have until I get through that training. Training is the main thing for me because I'm trying to learn and take things I've learned from other products and try to transfer that knowledge to this one."
"Technical support is definitely an area that they need improvement in, in terms of the front-line individuals."
"They should have more sub-extractors or exclusion extractors so that the user does not have to make a parent data type."
"If Grooper could "sense" important fields on the document and auto-build extractors for them, that'd be really cool."
"Could improve with regard to hand-written documents."
"It's not intuitive from a user standpoint."
"The process of manually correcting the data in the validation queue that IQ Bot failed to extract should be automated."
"The user should be able to update the data libraries."
"I know that Automation Anywhere just said that IQ Bot 11 and higher versions are ready to extract the documents with less than 300 DPI, however, this is not true. I never could work with documents with less than 300 DPI."
"Machine learning capabilities would be beneficial to have."
"It should be easier to install and configure. We had some issues during the initial setup, and we are resolving them with the help of their support. Its initial setup is complex. Their web pages are not really structured. Because they have multiple products that are more or less similar, it is sometimes hard to understand which documentation you're actually reading and using. Their documentation and web pages should be structured in a better way. In terms of new features, it is a little too early to provide inputs. I need more real business cases to see what is lacking. We haven't yet got those. We are currently testing it from a technical point of view."
"It would be helpful if the solution was better at reading handwriting. It needs better handwriting recognition."
