    It is very easy to use. We utilize it to save and show the logs for as many apps as we want. You can use it as an addon on Heroku.

    Kofax [Capture] meets our needs and for the most part is easy to use and setup. Configuration could be a little bit easier. The scripting language is a double edge sword if you will. It gives you nearly unlimited possibilities to script what you need, but the downside is you have to script it. Does a good job at batching and scanning documents. The tool integrates well into our workflow which makes our business partners happy and in turn provides for happy customers.

    • The VRS application included with Kofax Capture is the best image pre-processing platform available on the market today. It can handle a wide array of common document problems such as skew, flipping, wrinkles, lines, and dots.
    • The platform is incredibly scriptable and can be customized to handle all sorts of unusual document contents to allow information to be extracted that many other platforms just struggle on. Table extraction, line item matching, and smart extraction are all strong points with this platform.
    • Through the use of SBL and .NET the platform can be expanded and scaled quite easily to allow for the software to be integrated into existing business processes and platforms with ease.

    Cons
    Egis Software
    • Interface is aging and in need of a re-write. It's functional, but not all that nice to work with
    • While the logs are near-real-time, they could greatly improve the speed at which logs are available in the UI
    • Pricing plans are not all that competitive with newer offerings with other companies

    • We struggled with configuring Kofax with AP Automation. We used to receive vouchers in different formats by different companies, by different departments. The people from different departments used to scan those vouchers through regular scanners to a central location, which ended up as image pdfs. We fed these image pdfs through Kofax Capture for character recognition, which was painful as the accuracy of recognition was 50 to 60%.
    • Having a connectors with a workflow tool would be helpful where people can validate and approve the output.
    • More samples and documentation related to use of API in .NET applications would be a good improvement, that would help users to adapt the product easily into their organization.

    Cost of Kofax is high, however the cost to benefit scenarios always pay off.

    Usability
    Egis Software
    PaperTrail has become a basic app for me to save and see app logs. It is very easy to use, very intuitive and easy to customize. The feature I like most is that we can use it with several apps at same time.

    Performance
    Egis Software
    PaperTrail's live-tailing performance is adequate and searches over the recent history load quickly. Searching over long periods of time can be extremely slow, however.

    I only used Logz.io for a very brief time. It seemed a bit more difficult to setup than Papertrail.

    Return on Investment
    Egis Software
    • Free plan is sufficient for development and small services, and the paid plans are very cheap at low log volume. For us, the price is right with PaperTrail - though I can't speak to how their pricing compares at very high volumes.
    • Adding cloud-logging to your apps can really speed up development and debugging - the impact to engineering productivity cannot be understated.

    • We were able to decrease personnel expenditures as there was not a need for individuals to index documents prior to incorporating them into the record.
