Kofax Kapow 9.5 Adds Analytics and Simulation Capabilities


Kofax® Limited (NASDAQ: KFX), a leading provider of software to simplify and transform the First Mile™ of customer engagement, today announced the availability of Kofax Kapow™ 9.5, a new version of the Company's information integration and automation platform. Kapow 9.5 now includes analytics capabilities that deliver out-of-the-box dashboards to provide comprehensive insight into information, processes and performance to enable better decisions sooner. Users can monitor and analyze information being processed, process workflows and system performance. Kapow 9.5 also now offers simulation capabilities that allow developers to test projects in real time prior to their deployment in a production environment.

According to Gartner (News - Alert), "Data integration is central to enterprises' information infrastructure. Enterprises pursuing the frictionless sharing of data are increasingly favoring technology tools that are flexible in regard to time-to-value demands, integration patterns, optimization for cost and delivery models and synergies with information and application infrastructures." 1

"As a global leader in commercial intelligence for the energy, chemicals, metals and mining industries, we provide objective analysis and advice on assets, companies and markets, giving clients the inight they need to make better strategic decisions," said Matthew Jennings, a Director Operations for Research at Wood Mackenzie. "The new analytics capabilities built into Kofax Kapow 9.5 will give our business analysts detailed, up-to-the-minute insight into how our web data integration processes are running and enable us to make adjustments for optimal performance."



"Kapow 9.5's built-in analytics and visual dashboards give developers a ready-made information integration and automation solution that keeps them informed of any changes in project performance," said Dave Caldeira, Senior Vice President of Product and Solutions Marketing for Kofax. "This level of real-time insight gives our customers the ability to make better decisions sooner and drive greater productivity throughout the process."

Kapow 9.5 enhancements also include:


  • Accelerated Robot Design and Testing - A new design-time mode for building and testing integration robots gives designers better control over each step in the process. This limits the number of iterations required and enables the editing of individual steps without re-execution.
  • Project Synchronization and Management - Designers can easily upload, download and synchronize projects between the Kapow Design Studio and management console, move projects between test and production environments and share projects among small development teams.
  • Expanded Graphics Support - With scalable vector graphics (SVG) rendered in the browser view, robots can interact with active graphical elements and extract an image snapshot of the SVG elements.

The Kofax Kapow information integration and automation platform is the fastest way to acquire, enhance, and deliver information to enterprise applications. The software automates the acquisition and integration of information-especially for web sites and portals-to an organization's business applications, without the need for coding. Information that was previously unattainable, unusable or costly to integrate becomes readily consumable to drive productivity and add insight that improve decision making process.
