Senior Rpa Consultant at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions
I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

Easy to use and clear documentation with notes explaining each step available
Areas, where I see some room for improvement would be the use of reading details from an Excel file. Most of the time, it's difficult when I say looping through a huge data set, and it's very difficult for the bot to interact with those data sets unless it starts offering the Excel file. As of today, from the reports I've worked with, I noticed that most reports are empty columns and two rows. So if Kryon can associate with that and extract those deposits into a variable, and the tools can easily fit out to column dash and two rows and columns, it will be nice. But as of today, the bot doesn't have the functionality to detect variables. We have to do it on the Excel file itself. I also noticed that when it comes to the use of bots, not everyone has the same knowledge, and it can be difficult to do certain research unless you have advanced knowledge of what you need to do. I also noticed that in the community, most people don't use it, and it's quite difficult when you need certain support.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"BotFarm has been working perfectly fine with our business model. Its scalability is the most valuable feature. We can easily scale out bots on a need basis. Portability is another valuable feature. We work with different payment systems like Visa and MasterCard and have bots for them. Because of BotFarm, we are able to reuse these bots."
"What I like most about BotFarm is that it's one of the leading RPA products in the market. Very few products focus on robotics today, so I like that BotFarm offers a lot in terms of what general customers expect it to do."
"The dashboards are quite good, especially on the latest versions."
"Overall, we've been happy with the solution."
"Automation Anywhere provides a very flexible UI."
"The solution is very stable. We don't have issues with bugs or glitches."
"The record option and the OCR technology have been great."
"Last year I faced a problem and, subsequently, raised a ticket, and the support team is great and they helped me to resolve the issue within three or four days."
"The user-friendly environment allows for easy learning, and the end-to-end workflow management is excellent."
"The friendliness of the software is good because people without any technical background can start off on it. This solution makes it easy for us to use it, as there is no learning curve. With no learning curve, the development time turnaround decreases."
"The thing that we find the most value in is the Process Discovery component and the ability to really see what users are doing on a day-to-day basis. We're starting to make sense of the processes that they're doing and getting visibility into what they're doing. Overall, the Process Discovery is very good."
"We have been using Kryon Process Discovery for about a year now. With our initial tests and monitoring just a couple people, we were able to identify 79 possible use cases within a one-month period."
"Kryon will allow you to automate processes fast and easy and you do not need to be a developer to automate processes."
"The most valuable features for our organization are the automatic processes which save main power in the back office."
"The initial setup process is easy."
"Nintex RPA often includes security features, including encryption and user access controls, which ensure the protection of sensitive data and compliance with security standards."
 

Cons

"I would like to have access to self-service support."
"I would like to be able to access BotForm using a mobile app."
"The licensing schemes could be more competitive."
"From the holistic standpoint of the product offering, there are a lot of things that need to be done."
"I would definitely be wanting to see OCR features for improving the solution."
"The new version is not very stable. Sometimes I can't use the recording sound."
"Although I like the OCR technology, it could still be further improved."
"When somebody is just learning this product it can be difficult for them to understand, so improvements to the user interface would be helpful."
"Kryon RPA's integration with other solutions could be more seamless."
"The process discovery tool of Kryon RPA could be improved because of its limitations."
"When a project is very big, a lot of memory is taken up. Then, machines don't have enough memory. This could be improved upon to be more efficient."
"What we are lacking is OCR, the ability to read text. We would like it to have the ability to take a page which is free text and analyze it, and then for the robot to know what to do next. This ability does not exist in Kryon products."
"There are limitations on integrations with other platforms like ServiceNow. There are some issues integrating."
"We would like to see having a little more specific documentation, or some of the examples be easier to find."
"Extracting meaningful data requires significant effort. You need a dedicated business analyst who can understand the output."
"I would improve the object recognition features, making it not linked to the screen resolution or the position."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing model could be simplified."
"The starter price is free."
"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."
"It is too expensive and not worth the price."
"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."
"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."
"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."
"The license of this solution is on an annual basis. The price is fair. However, what we did initially was a POC, but now we are looking at moving from a POC to expanding it out further. I would appreciate some kind of discount."
"We've more than broken even over on the license. Year to date, we are at $120,000 in savings."
"The product has reasonable pricing."
"We have a yearly license. It's about $5,000 per year."
"Compared to its competitors, Kryon RPA's pricing is very competitive."
"In addition to the standard licensing costs, there are manpower costs."
"Licensing costs are about $100,000 a year without any additional costs."
"They license per robot and we have 25 robots. You get so many robot licenses and can allocate those licenses to either attended, unintended, or Process Discovery bots. If you have 25 licenses, for example, you could have 20 automation bots and five process discovery. This allocation is flexible. There are also maintenance costs."
"We have been able to alleviate two FTEs, which was a big savings for us. We were able to reuse those resources in other locations. It is over 5000 hours a year in total savings."
