Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The security is also excellent. It's highly granular, so the admins have a high degree of control, and there are many levels of security. That worked well. You won't have an EDC unless you put everything onto the platform because it is its own isolated thing.""The interface is really user-friendly.""Great features available in one tool.""Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility.""Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly.""The solution offers very good end-to-end capabilities.""The ease of use is my favorite feature. We're able to build different models and projects or combine different projects to build one use case.""Palantir Foundry is a robust platform that has really strong plugin connectors and provides features for real-time integration."

"The solution is scalable.""Kofax RPA's best feature is its high success percentage in picking up information from documents, especially where the DPI is really low.""The flexibility to use already-developed components is really good. You can use it for Excel-related operations and other things.""Provides valuable tools working in integration with RPA tools.""The most valuable features are workflow and process automation.""The product provided all the security controls that we asked them.""The features that we have found the most valuable are the integration of different third-party support and productivity services.""Kofax handles UIs via the browser well. If it's not possible, they have other features like modeling screen scrapes, etc."

Cons
"Difficult to receive data from external sources.""There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers.""Cost of this solution is quite high.""It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point.""If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly.""The solution could use more online documentation for new users.""Compared to other hyperscalers, Palantir Foundry is complex and not so user-intuitive.""They do not have a data center in Europe, and we have lots of personally identifiable information in our dataset that needs to be hosted by a third-party data center like Amazon or Microsoft Azure."

More Palantir Foundry Cons →

"Automation with the latest websites is not effective. The support of newer websites developed using new technologies would improve this solution.""The technical support must be improved.""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 scalability has room for improvement.""The interface could be better from a usability standpoint.""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.""Exception handling needs to be improved.""I'd like to see a recording function and a more simple interface."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
  • "It's expensive."
  • "The solution’s pricing is high."
  • More Palantir Foundry Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The normal price for an on-premises license is €50,000. That's the price for one robot license. You can have more than one robot license but only one can be run at any one time. I believe the cost of adding a second robot is around €14,000."
  • "Price is not a problem, because they are a competitor and we have a special rate."
  • "I don't have complete insight at this point in time, but I would guess that Kofax is a lot less expensive than Automation Anywhere. I would expect its license to be on a yearly basis."
  • "Its pricing is reasonable given the product capabilities. Kofax has a wide range of products, and it can sometimes be confusing to understand which capabilities come with which product set. One of the key facets that we've been looking into recently is cognitive document recognition that was a core pile of some of their other technologies such as Kofax transformation modules (KTM)."
  • "Kofax's prices are pretty reasonable."
  • "There is a standard license needed to use Kofax RPA and the price is reasonable."
  • "Kofax RPA is moderately priced but expensive in comparison to UiPath and Power Automate."
  • "I give the price of the solution a six out of ten."
