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.

Helped us identify areas where frontline staff aren't following standard procedures or using unexpected systems, giving us better insight into our end users' workflows

To analyze and make sense of the data generated by Kryon process discovery can be a lot of effort. It's not as automatic as some might think. It really depends on how many processes you have and how actively you use them. But the scalability aspect isn't necessarily about deployment or technical maintenance. It's really about how you analyze and gain insights from the data gathering. I'd rate the scalability a seven out of ten because the solution has been scaling well for a long time. It's very easy to deploy. But getting value out of it at scale can be a challenge, just like with any deployment. We use it mainly for process discovery. We actually proceed it from different teams. So, we have 15 licenses that we rotate with different people, actually through different teams. So, we do discovery for the online team; we gather the results after about two weeks to a month. We analyze those results, and then we deploy them again on the analytics team. We regularly deploy it to different teams. So, it's in constant use. It just runs on the systems through discovery mode most of the time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The main features of the solution are the IQ Bot and web-based automation."

"There are not many challenges when setting up this solution, and there is a good amount of documentation to go with it."

"From a solution standpoint, screen capture and tight integration with Outlook are valuable features."

"As a company, if you feel that your ROI is pretty high and with Automation Anywhere you are able to achieve the desired ROI that you are looking for, then I would definitely say Automation Anywhere is a very good solution to adopt."

"The solution is very stable. We don't have issues with bugs or glitches."

"The system is stable and very little maintenance is required, assuming the bots process is perfectly designed."

"The most important feature of BotFarm is web automation."

"The web interface that was introduced in the recent version helps because you are not dependent on any particular system."

More BotFarm pros

"The full-service automation aspects and the process discovery are the most valuable features of Kryon RPA."

"We use PowerBuilder as our application building codex. Kryon adds flexibility when we have the functionality of SQL, where we can take sets of data out of the back-end and run complex computations or do a bunch of data validations inside the wizard. It can save us sometimes dozens of steps, then if we were to try and do those same reviews using the user interface completely. The balance that we get from using Kryon RPA, alongside being able to screen scrape and frequent screen, gives us an advantage that we haven't had previously with any of our other attempts at robotic process automation."

"By the end of this year we will have returned the investment, and we will start gaining more."

"In the testing area there is a good ROI, because we're now capable of doing things that we couldn't before, completely, and it's a game-changer."

"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 absolutely seen return on investment; we felt that we had to get to between 40 and 80 hours of weekly savings to get our ROI and we're already almost there, and that's good news overall."

"The most valuable features for our organization are the automatic processes which save main power in the back office."

"It has been helpful in reducing the manpower and error rate since we are able to run tasks 24/7 without interruptions. As humans definitely take breaks and there may be absenteeism that is unexpected, the solution provides continuous work. Humans tend to make errors once in a while, but the solution has almost zero percent errors."

More Nintex RPA pros

Cons

"There should be more support for developing in environments such as Citrix and Linux."

"Scalability is an area of improvement. We can increase the main features for our project but when we reached out to our personnel and asked whether Bot can be expanded, we were told "You cannot scale this Bot."

"I would like to have access to self-service support."

"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."

"When somebody is just learning this product it can be difficult for them to understand, so improvements to the user interface would be helpful."

"The discovery suite that they just acquired could be included."

"Sometimes I feel like it doesn't work properly and we are not able to provide the dexterity needed."

"The stability needs to be improved."

More BotFarm cons

"What needs improvement in Kryon RPA is the support. Sometimes, the solution has problems, so I contacted support, but I didn't receive immediate help from the team. You have to wait a while before the problem gets solved. This happens a few times in terms of getting cases solved. It would also be better if Kryon RPA had a cloud version because currently, from what I know, it only has an on-premise version, though I could be wrong about that. There isn't any additional feature I'd like added to Kryon RPA because it's a good service, but the support is very, very bad, so that area could be improved."

"Nintex RPA is not suitable for PDF automation."

"It would be better to have [upgrades] done automatically, like an application on your smartphone. Or even if done manually, the upgrade should just be "next, next, next," and it's upgraded, rather than making it a project to upgrade."

"Kryon RPA's integration with other solutions could be more seamless."

"We need stronger governance to know, when a transaction is done, whether it worked or failed; strong logging."

"There have been some times where we have had to go through explaining the issue a couple times because it has gone through a couple of people's hands."

"Another major drawback is OCR. We are not able to read scanned documents correctly in a reliable way. There is always some margin of error. Some of the processes require us to read scanned documents, and you need to ensure that it is 100 percent accurate. Without that level of assurance, you can't automate such tasks."

"We use Google Drive a lot. If somebody sends us a spreadsheet or a document, it's going to be in Google’s format. It's not going to be in Microsoft Office format. But currently, there's no integration with Google’s documents. That would be a huge plus to have."

More Nintex RPA cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."

"The pricing is fair."

"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."

"Its price is quite high as compared to other solutions, but it has a lot of features and good stability. They should reduce its price."

"It is too expensive and not worth the price."

"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."

"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."

More BotFarm pricing and cost advice

"We've more than broken even over on the license. Year to date, we are at $120,000 in savings."

"The price is affordable."

"In addition to the standard licensing costs, there are manpower costs."

"It is very cheap. I would rate the pricing a three out of ten, with ten being expensive."

"For an unattended robot it's $6000 a month."

"We're paying in the neighborhood of about $66,000 a year. The cost is fairly similar to its competitors' costs. It might have been a little bit more reasonable than the others, and that cost was with Process Discovery in addition."

"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 a yearly license. It's about $5,000 per year."

Reviews from Real Users

Akshay P., Associate Systems Analyst at NSEiT Limited, relates, “It is very easy, simple. You're working on a notepad, and you don't need to know programming to work on this. The dashboards are quite good, especially on the latest versions.”

A Digital Strategy Manager at an energy/utilities company shares, “The scalability is the solution's most valuable aspect. The reason Bot Farm is used is to have only one license available whenever you have a spike in the transactions. That is a core feature. That is something which we are using to the maximum. It's working well due to the fact that the solution use case is quite structured.”

A Senior RPA Developer at a tech services company tells us, “The solution is great to automate any repetitive tasks, which you might do on a daily basis. For example, the organization may need to be generating invoices or extracting data from PDF files daily. It is very versatile in what you can automate. This has improved my organization by cutting down on repetitive tasks that now can be automated.”

Automation Anywhere

Using Nintex RPA, enterprises can leverage trained bots to quickly and cost-effectively automate routine tasks without the use of code in an easy-to-use drag and drop interface. Users are now equipped with a comprehensive, enterprise-grade process management and automation solution that streamlines processes fueled by both structured and unstructured data sources.
