How to Simplify Your Move from Kofax Capture to TotalAgility

Written by Genus Technologies | Oct 17, 2024

The digital transformation journey can be complex, particularly for organizations transitioning from legacy systems like Kofax Capture to a modern, cloud-capable platform like TotalAgility by Tungsten Automation (formerly Kofax).  

For current Tungsten Automation users, this shift offers new opportunities for automation and process improvements but also presents significant challenges. Enter Genus ActiveInbox—a solution designed to make this transition as smooth and cost-effective as possible. 

If your enterprise is looking to leverage the power of TotalAgility, while reducing the time, cost, and disruptions associated with migrating from Capture, Genus ActiveInbox provides the tools to achieve a seamless shift with AI-powered automation. 

 

Understanding the Challenges of Moving from Capture to TotalAgility

Moving from a client-server architecture, like Kofax Capture, to a cloud-based solution such as TotalAgility is no small feat. Many organizations face challenges such as: 

  • Process Disruptions: Any migration effort can temporarily impact business operations, which may lead to downtime or decreased efficiency. 
  • Extended Development Time: Adapting business processes to the new platform often requires extensive development and customization, adding time and cost. 
  • Increased Training Needs: Training staff on new systems can be time-consuming and resource intensive. 
  • Managing Legacy Workloads: Transferring existing processes, batch classes, and configurations from Capture to TotalAgility may require manual adjustments that could lead to errors. 

 

ActiveInbox Eases the Transition

Genus ActiveInbox simplifies the transition from Kofax Capture to TotalAgility by mirroring key aspects of your Capture configuration while offering advanced migration tooling.

ActiveInbox Tackles Common Challenges

If your organization is currently using Kofax Capture, the transition to TotalAgility comes with certain common pain points. Here’s how ActiveInbox directly addresses these challenges: 

Lengthy Development Time 
When migrating from Capture to TotalAgility, replicating your existing workflows often requires substantial development efforts. ActiveInbox simplifies this process by automatically mirroring your Capture configuration, reducing the need for custom development and speeding up the deployment of TotalAgility’s advanced features.

High Professional Service Costs 
Traditional migration projects often involve significant professional service fees. ActiveInbox reduces these costs by automating key aspects of the migration, allowing your internal teams to focus on strategic tasks like business rule integration, rather than spending time on basic system configurations.

Disruption to Business Operations 
Process disruptions during a migration can negatively impact your organization’s productivity and customer experience. With ActiveInbox, these disruptions are minimized, as the tool provides a near-instantaneous transition from Capture to TotalAgility, ensuring that your business continues to operate at full speed.  

Limited Staff Resources 
Training your staff to use a new system can be a resource drain, especially if your team is already stretched thin. By keeping core configurations and workflows consistent, ActiveInbox reduces the training burden on your team, allowing them to focus on delivering business value.
