We performed a comparison between Fortra's Automate and Tungsten RPA based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The interface is simple, user-friendly, and very intuitive."
"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."
"This tool has machine learning and voice recognition and computer vision, which are both quite useful aspects. These aren't available in other tools. It's a good addition to this tool and it gives the solution an edge on the market."
"I like the interface; it makes managing automation easy. We can set different schedules and templates for each task."
"I actually quite liked the no-coding functionality."
"The pricing is excellent. I would give them perfect marks in that regard."
"Compared to other vendors, it's the scheduling tool because a lot of vendors want to charge you extra for their enterprise-level license to have a scheduling tool built in to give you the ability to set up regular schedules to run and do certain data checks."
"The solution is continuously adding more integrations to help with workflows and bot and task creation."
"The most valuable feature of Kofax RPA is the simplicity of automating tasks."
"The product provided all the security controls that we asked them."
"The drag and drop functionality is quite good."
"The best part of Kofax is that they have a whole concept. It's one product, but also has extra elements that can be integrated."
"Kofax RPA's best feature is its high success percentage in picking up information from documents, especially where the DPI is really low."
"The product saves time and resources."
"Kofax handles UIs via the browser well. If it's not possible, they have other features like modeling screen scrapes, etc."
"The features that we have found the most valuable are the integration of different third-party support and productivity services."
"Fortra's Automate is not as reliable as I would like it to be."
"The workflow for variables could be better. The input and output of task-level variables could be made a little clearer in terms of passing those around from one task to another upon success, etc. Things like that could be a little easier potentially."
"The intelligent automation feature could be improved. It's interesting because it's simple, but the automation quality isn't always good. It's easy to use, but sometimes you need to make a slight improvement to the automation, and that's not so easy."
"We really need a free development environment for customers. Building and testing automation on production isn't ideal."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and easier to navigate."
"Sometimes when we communicate with the ERP system and there is an issue, we are not always aware of the specifics of Automate and the source of the problem."
"While this solution is continually improving, as it is now, the user interface could use improvement when I compare it to a product like UiPath."
"The OCR for Hebrew text needs to be improved."
"There is really nothing special about the capabilities of this product."
"Automation with the latest websites is not effective. The support of newer websites developed using new technologies would improve this solution."
"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."
"RPA technology is constantly changing, and sometimes Kofax lags behind."
"The solution needs to be scalable."
"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."
"The technical support must be improved."
"The interface could be better from a usability standpoint."
