Well suited: Invoice data extraction and integration with a third-party system. Less appropriate: Multiple invoices in the single pdf use case and complex logic for business data validation.

ReportMiner is well suited for digitizing PDFs that includes data that follows a pattern such as a bank statement. It saves a bunch of time to make one report that will be able to be used each month for that bank. The program would not be useful if you had to spend the time making a new report each month for a new bank with a few lines of data

Cons
  • Although the back-end of the application is very strong, if it can have a visual workflow for defining tasks like scanning, verification and etc., it will be better.
  • Reporting feature should be enhance more on web
  • Although the result of Arabic Text extraction is very good in ABBYY, if they can focus more on different types of Arabic Fonts, it will be better

  • Could provide some features to help with advanced analytics for big data. (i.e. larger data sets)
  • Too much clutter on their Youtube page, they should highlight the tutorials so they are easier to find for new users. Get rid of old tutorial video playlists so the organization is clean and up to date.
  • Have sales rep follow up with customers to offer product updates, new product releases, and do check ins to see if customers have suggestions for feature improvement.

Alternatives Considered
We have selected it because it is having very strong OCR Engine. Also, AI-based features like machine learning for the training of batches are a strong feature in ABBYY FlexiCapture. Also, it has the ability to export data into SharePoint and other ECM systems like M-Files. Also, the automatic classification feature for batches is another feature that was the reason for choosing this product.

Astera ReportMiner had a more concentrated feature stack for what we were looking for at a cheaper price so we went with it instead of other competitors that had more features, more complicated UIs, and had more expensive subscription packages because of it. They also had an easy purchase/setup process at the time of our procurement.
