Executive SummaryUpdated on Mar 29, 2026

WorkFusion and OpenText Capture compete in the business process automation category, excelling in their respective fields. WorkFusion appears to have the upper hand due to its cognitive capabilities, although OpenText Capture's document-intensive task handling is formidable.

Features: WorkFusion's strengths include its flexibility, robust integrations with SAP and Microsoft 365, and scalability, enhanced by its machine learning and document processing capabilities. In contrast, OpenText Capture excels in OCR capabilities for document-intensive tasks like accounts payables and loan processing, offering integration with various channels including fax and mobile capture, making it a versatile choice for automation.

Room for Improvement: WorkFusion needs to enhance its ERP integration with SAP and improve user experience as well as low-code/no-code capabilities for non-technical users. It also requires improvements in OCR accuracy and processing speed. OpenText Capture should focus on simplifying its user interface and enhancing AI capabilities without adding complexity for developers, with considerations on licensing costs and expanding mobile capture features for better accessibility to smaller businesses.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: WorkFusion provides flexible deployment options, including on-premises and hybrid solutions, supported by responsive customer service that understands use cases well, especially for financial companies. However, frequent upgrades pose challenges. OpenText Capture offers similar deployment flexibility but experiences slower response times in customer service.

Pricing and ROI: WorkFusion is pricier than some competitors but considered cost-effective due to its efficiency and error reduction, delivering significant ROI. Its enterprise licensing model offers comprehensive solutions but could be more accessible for new users. OpenText Capture, while providing significant automation benefits for high-volume users, is seen as expensive, often restricting smaller businesses from leveraging its full potential due to licensing costs.

Management Consultant at Accenture

Has significantly improved document-driven workflows and reduced processing time across finance and HR functions

Automation Anywhere has evolved significantly and upgraded itself to provide agentic AI and AI-based automation solutions for document automation. The product has matured considerably over time. We can create workflows that can call an API. We can include prompts in particular workflows for ChatGPT-related functions, connecting to an LLM and RAG to perform tasks. For document automation, modern features are available to train documents, ensuring high accuracy and repeatability over time. The system is very easy to use. I recently completed a course in document automation, typically designed for people involved in coding and technical aspects. Though I understand coding comprehensively, I don't do actual coding. The course was very accessible. Currently, extensive coding isn't necessary due to the hybrid model incorporating GenAI aspects, low-code, no-code capabilities, APIs, and numerous pre-built objects in Automation Anywhere. The features include GenAI-driven prompting methods and workflow creation capabilities. In these workflows, we can create decision boxes and call APIs without coding. We simply pull objects, drop them, connect them, and add minimal coding when needed. The most crucial aspect isn't coding but rather sizing the automation and fleshing out the details. Automation Co-pilot takes notes and performs automated analysis. It can extract details from videos, summarize conversations, and provide detailed information. During calls, it identifies instructions and performs tasks such as preparing reports and reconciliation. Automation Anywhere can also connect with Microsoft Co-pilot. Through Co-pilot, real-time operations can be executed, allowing direct interaction between vendors and automation through this component.

Robust document capture boosts efficiency and integration options

The best features include multiple channel capabilities such as fax, different file transfers, and paper scans. It can be integrated with multiple channels and can capture images, even from mobile devices integrating into OpenText Capture. Currently, it has introduced AI for data extraction and document processing. OpenText Capture's impact on automating document-intensive tasks such as accounts payables or loan processing is significant. It has the capability to capture table structures or multiple line items from images, including line items and final amounts for invoice processing. The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data. This product can be integrated into any point-of-sale system, Salesforce, SAP, or other environments, reducing manual data entry and related tasks. This feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption. The automation reduces human effort that would otherwise be required for classification and extraction tasks.

Intelligent Automation SME at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees

Cloud platform orchestrates business processes with AI capabilities

I find the capabilities that a normal orchestrator should have to be valuable in WorkFusion. The WorkFusion 10 cloud-based platform is different from the earlier on-prem version, WorkFusion 9. The platform now includes auto machine learning and AI capabilities. We haven't used these extensively, but they are a nice feature they are working on. The platform remains stable with well-designed processes, despite being a complex and technical tool.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Since we can register multiple bot runners in one control room, and we can easily monitor and re-run bots when necessary, it is convenient for me."

"Through the software, we have been able to reduce the time that we spend on manual, repetitive tasks so that we can focus on activities that add value to the business or to our partners and customers."

"Overall, we've saved a lot of time, as there's a recent process that we automated which saves around 200 to 300 hours each month, depending on the number of accounts that come in."

"We're able to create reusable components. We don't want people to have to rebuild things from scratch. In this way, developers can take the reusable components and complete their development processes more quickly."

"We can see what the bots are doing when they are working."

"We valued the ease of use, when we were thinking about scaling out to the business. The recording feature, while not a developer tool - it is a tool for a business user who may not possess the thought process of a developer - we valued that in our evaluation."

"My experience with Automation Anywhere over three years has shown tremendous growth in operational efficiency and business processes, as it helps to automate repetitive and rule-based tasks such as report generation and data entry quite faster and efficiently, reducing errors by about thirty to forty percent from what I observed a few years back and improving SLA-related compliance."

"We've saved a lot of time. How much time we save depends on the process. It's likely at least 50%. Sometimes, it's up to 70%."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"We use it to capture documents coming through our product and mobile channels and make them available for our business to access and email. We use it to automate the email workflow in our applications, pull the documents, and email them to the users."

"OpenText Intelligent Capture is pretty good."

"The main benefits of OpenText Capture are particularly valuable when capturing content and extracting structured or unstructured data, and this feature has helped organizations handle large volumes of data with precision, especially regarding resource consumption."

"It is a mature product and a leader in the industry."

"The automated version of the vendor invoice management is great, and it is helpful because it has reduced the human interaction in invoice processing."

"The solution is very powerful because it allows for custom scripting."

"It allows you to image capture, scan documents and use machine learning to automatically index and tie them."

"The enterprise and capturing feature of OpenText is its valuable feature. As we have integrated CRM with OpenText."

More OpenText Capture pros

"It's a pretty robust product."

"It's a pretty robust product; it comes packaged with ELK Stack, Elasticsearch, Kibana, and Logstash, and it has a lot of monitoring capabilities that we're taking advantage of."

"It really does help by either freeing up people's time to focus on more value-added tasks or reducing headcount. We generally have other things that we can get people to do, helping make the employees' work more meaningful since they are not having to do the mundane stuff."

"In our opinion this group are the leaders in providing RPA solutions."

"We can see that its competitive ability is quite good."

"The automations that we built are massively important to us."

"The most valuable features are the Excel activities. It has a number of Excel activities that are quite reliable."

"For automating mundane activities, I can recommend WorkFusion."

More WorkFusion pros

Cons

"Since Automation Anywhere's Japan office was only recently opened, it seems the support has not been as good as support for other package applications."

"However, there is a problem that arises with accuracy in the newer version."

"Regarding the pricing, I think it's high, and it's the same for the setup cost and licensing."

"Their support also needs improvement."

"We have had a lot of issues using Automation Anywhere and find ourselves stuck."

"They need to improve the OCR engine which is not up to the market."

"The product is not the best that it could be. There is always room to improve it a bit more. They are heading in the right direction with their innovations."

"The technical support has been a little slow to respond to our inquiries."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"If something is handwritten and attached to an email, it doesn't capture the information correctly."

"I have not seen any return on investment from OpenText Capture."

"It can be more user-friendly, and it should also have more reporting capabilities. There are also a few other things that need improvement."

"The area for improvement primarily centers around licensing concerns rather than technical issues. Captiva, intended for larger clients, poses challenges for medium and small businesses due to licensing costs. The current licensing model is based on volume, such as purchasing a volume for one million dollars per year for scanning. This pricing structure may be prohibitive for companies with constrained budgets. Another aspect requiring attention is the mobile capture feature, which, although experiencing recent enhancements in intelligent document processing through AI, could benefit from further improvements. Specifically, there is room for enhancement in enabling users to efficiently capture documents using their smartphones."

"We are using it to improve the image and the documentation for the cases. And sometimes, some cases have more than fifteen different types. We use some tools as fixed standard analysis and provide information to support the different types to take some decisions and help in an automated process. We choose the case type and subtype DNS scanning documents from the data entry up."

"Knowledge of .NET is required to effectively use the solution or it can be complicated."

"The setup is medium complexity."

"I would say what most of the document management solutions are lacking is smartness to detect the duplicate storage of the documents."

More OpenText Capture cons

"Sometimes, when we report an issue such as a possible bug in the WorkFusion platform, and we need answers or a solution, we think WorkFusion can do better."

"I would rate the stability as four out of ten. I frequently face issues with infrastructure and some WorkFusion-related problems, such as login issues."

"We are having some database issues, but we are addressing them."

"I would like WorkFusion to improve the automation rate when evaluating unstructured text."

"This is a Java-based application that takes up a lot of space and when it runs, consumes a lot of memory. This affects the reliability because it gets to a point where it hangs."

"A better graphical user interface that allows business users to perform automation would make this solution number one in the market."

"There could be better version control through their web platform. That is something that could be improved on. Integration from the IDE, e.g., from WorkFusion Studio directly into Control Tower, would be nice to have too."

"It is complex for enterprise implementation. The solution needs a needs minimum, of 20-22 servers. It's no small task. This is not a straightforward setup. It's a large undertaking and there are many moving parts."

More WorkFusion cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and licensing are definitely moderate to costly but easily recoverable by achieving ROI quickly."

"Time and monetary savings can range from 20 to 90 percent."

"We have reduced our headcount, approximately 200 to 300 employees, by eliminating manual, repetitive work. It provides profit to the business."

"We have seen a return of investment because it takes less time to market in our current process. I would estimate a times savings between 20 to 30 percent."

"I think the solution's pricing is reasonable."

"I don't agree with the IQ Bot licensing costs, which depends on the consumption of the document rather than per bot or user. This is confusing for me, because most of the cases for us in a possible future scenario, there would be a lot of invalid data to be scanned to get to real data. E.g., we would have to supply approximately 100 pages of scanned data to extract two pages of original data. In these type of cases, the IQ Bot might be a costly venture."

"Automation Anywhere pricing and licensing are competitive compared to the other automation vendors."

"I am not responsible for the pricing part, but I know the pricing is competitive compared to other tools."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"OpenText is an expensive solution."

"Some customers say the solution can get costly because it requires licenses or enterprise packages."

"The solution was not the cheapest, but it was also not the most expensive. Workfusion was very open to negotiating pricing and to working within the objectives of our firm."

"Find it online."

"One upgrade took a year to do, from the first server being built to the last bot being migrated. This was because we had to migrate all our existing bots. This is the same process and time frame that we are expecting towards the upcoming upgrade. I will end up spending half a million dollars to do an upgrade."

"I can't speak to pricing. It's a contract signed by upper management."

"They have a very expensive license compared to any other automation tool. For instance, at $50,000 - $60,000, you can bring in an Automation Anywhere solution. For this solution, you need at least $250,000 to get something going."

"We are on an annual contract to use the solution."

"My client is using RPA Express, which is available for them to use free of charge."

"It is not the most expensive solution, but it is also not the cheapest."
