Straightforward interface and user-friendly

There are a lot of apps in K2, but what I really found that needs improvement is the management section of K2, especially the management server and the admin page where you can manage processes, add users, set security fees, and add licenses. The reason for this is because the part that is the section of administration, particularly the management called rows, has multiple rules, as many as you want. For instance, you may have around 200 rules, and when you view them, only the first ten are displayed, and you have to click next to see the next ten and so on until you get to the hundredth rule. On that page, as of today, we only have what we call to fetch, where you can search for a particular rule you're looking for, or else you have to keep clicking until you get to the final page you want. So that's a bit challenging.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I think the initial setup is fine."

"Valuable features include workflows (escalation, reminder, LazyApproval, actions, etc.) and ease of use."

"I really like the visual representation. It actually looks like a flow chart, which is nicer than a SharePoint Designer workflow, which doesn't have that ability."

"I like the feature of getting an email for a workflow error, then I do not have to go through every instance."

"It is very easy to create and deploy. I am very happy with how user-friendly Nintex Workflow is."

"It has a lot of features for creating and managing workflows, as well as for integrating with other applications. Nintex offers features, particularly to ensure a user-friendly experience."

"It's easy to configure your set of rules to make the form controls work perfectly, removing manual work and making processes seamless."

"Out of box connectivity with UiPath."

More Nintex Process Platform pros

"It has a lot of flexibility, and Microsoft does come up with some new additions from time to time."

"It's all now on cloud subscription, so you can use all the features without worrying about making the system updates patches."

"OpenText 360's best features are platform independence and its performance when searching large numbers of documents."

"The collaborative environment for long-term archival or record management is great."

"The fact that you can see and create something that fits your business is the most valuable thing in this platform. It is a customizable product, so it fits your needs."

"We concentrate on the legal industry, such as legal libraries. It's the most structured solution we have used and implemented for five years."

"We have manual processes, so the workflow enables us to automate a number of these processes."

"This solution has good connection and we do not need to migrate everything in order to protect the repository."

Cons

"There is room for improvement in the user experience in the forms."

"The user interface in Nintex needs improvement. It is not very intuitive and requires changes."

"Built-in reporting on-prem is limited and clunky at best."

"The solution is a bit too expensive. It could be cheaper."

"The management server and the admin page where you can manage processes need improvement."

"Hawkeye is emerging as a reporting solution, but as a V1 product it’s not very useful yet."

"Currently, a notable challenge lies in the alignment of user experiences across the eight or nine applications within the suite. Transitioning between applications can be somewhat cumbersome due to varying user interfaces. However, the provider is actively addressing this concern by consistently rolling out updates every four to five months, aimed at harmonizing and streamlining the interfaces. This ongoing effort is expected to enhance the user experience over time. In terms of functionality and features, the platform stands out, offering flexibility with the option for both on-premises and cloud deployment. This flexibility extends to the RPA tool, providing clients with choices tailored to their preferences. An advantage lies in the shared security and data infrastructure across the toolset, facilitating smooth data transfer between applications. This contrasts with experiences with Oracle, where data transfer may involve complexities such as the need for intermediary file formats like TXL or SCZ."

"The security features for this solution need to be improved."

More Nintex Process Platform cons

"The graphical user interface had to be more user-friendly. It's not as intuitive."

"If I have to really create an internal knowledge management portal, if I have to compare SharePoint and WordPress, WordPress is far, far better in regard to the SharePoint option."

"They are not going for any add-ons right now. It's the same version we are still using and there is no plan of upgrading and/or creating any add-ons at all."

"We have a very good time to market tool, and the development platform should be made user-friendly. Mostly, it's just support."

"Integration is an area where the solution lacks."

"The user interface could definitely be improved."

"I would like for there to be even more integrations in the next release and I believe that the price could go down a bit."

"An area for improvement would be how the platform handles large volumes of documents. It also doesn't provide a very good, robust backup and restore capacity. In the next release, I would like the search technology to be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of this solution is affordable but the problem in Algeria is our community is a bit slower. The new clients might feel the solution is a bit expensive."

"For the initial hundred users, the cost is $21,000 per year, which I find too high."

"It's more suited for enterprise level, not for small or medium-sized businesses (SMBs)."

"Offering a licensing model that allows for multiple small workflows would be a huge improvement to an already great platform."

"Nintex is around INR 200 per license in India, which is much cheaper. Smaller organizations are always looking for cost-effective solutions, and Nintex provides local solutions with very low pricing."

"There is an initial fee when purchasing and a fee for maintenance afterward."

"Prices for licenses of K2 are high."

"Nintex Workflow is more expensive than Microsoft's native products, but it is still considered moderately priced when compared to higher-end products such as K2."

More Nintex Process Platform pricing and cost advice

"SharePoint uses a subscription model."

"OpenText 360's price varies depending on how long you've been a customer, how many licenses you have, and which products you use."

"Its price is reasonable, but its licensing is very complex. This platform contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify its licensing."

"Pricing is a part of the enterprise agreement that we have."

"It has a reasonable price."

"On-premises version is expensive"

"The solution has a very complex pricing model."

"There is a license needed to use OpenText 360 for SharePoint and we pay annually. The price of the solution could be less expensive."
