Based on my personal experience, this application is well-suited for noncoders who are busy setting up their businesses and since coders are expensive for the company in the initial days as in for startups, this application goes hand in hand and is quick and robust along with its amazing features like drag and drop and just the cloud storage facility.

We've used Kissflow [School Cloud] in order to track parent requests for transportation in the SpEd department. It has been user friendly for parents to input a request and staff to review, double check school sites and locations, and set up specific routes to meet the needs of students and communicate the info back to parents.

  • They know what they are. You aren't going to get a Workflow program that also wants to be a CRM. You will get the equivalent of an electronic assistant going from station to station, taking care of business and giving you the end result.
  • Paper. It reduces the amount of paper needed for menial tasks tremendously. You can automate an entire process. As an educational institution, you may still need paper copies, but you aren't waiting for John Doe to sign Line 3, then Jane Doe to initial, and so on and so on with a paper form.
  • Tracking. If you need to know where things are in the process, the fact that this program is dedicated to workflow makes it incredibly easy to identify where people are in the sales flow.
  • Customer appreciation. When your workflow is stronger, faster, and better, the customers feel it. They feel like you are right there with them and getting things moving.

Cons
Appy Pie
  • The application requires to be run on fast processing computers/laptops
  • This is a good application that isn't much known among non-coders, it needs to be marketed so that boosts this app developer to add more advanced features
  • It seems to have little bugs for the mobile app.

  • Workflow Design: There isn't a copy/paste function when creating the workflow, and you can't move a workflow task between parallel branches. This becomes a pain point when an item has 98% of what you need, but you can't copy it and place it in another branch to make the last tweaks. Instead, it needs to be completely recreated
  • Interface: While I like the current design features, which make it easy for an end-user to find their tasks and items, it would be nice to also have some flexibility within the platform. Things like being able to groups apps under a category or tailoring the look and feel of the page a little more would be a welcome addition.

Usability
Appy Pie
Like I said in previous questions, the no-code application has basic and easy features that are literally a no-brainer and even a person with zero knowledge of coding can do wonders with this as his/her tool. Apart from that, the application is cost-effective while time and money are two key things to be taken care of as a startup owner, this app came hand in hand with me

The system has room to grow as it's limited by not being able to edit POs after they've been approved. The system is great for registrations and syncing to other systems while including the attachments. The reporting from Kissflow is also easy to setup to link to other platforms such as Looker

I have been using this for some time now and the website of the no-code application is all self-explanatory that is the reason I never have reached to the support team anytime, but before using this application I have gone through the reviews and read the positive response and I believe it has still gotten stronger since then.

I haven't encountered a need for support with KiSSFLOW. It's not a perfect platform, but it's functional, dependable, and reasonably intuitive. I can't fault a support team just because their product works!

Webflow has quite a lot of complexity in comparison to the no-code app which instead is user-friendly. There are more issues with application getting hung in between working but that isn't a bigger problem in the no-code app. Apart from that, the no-code app has blocks that can be used to edit/add/delete which are literally a no-brainer.

KiSSFLOW is much easier to set up, less coding and easier to explain to those that are being trained. The company already had SharePoint, but it is a very difficult system to set up. A class had to be taken, along with getting books in order to understand the process of the workflow. With KiSSFLOW, it is simple to understand, the helpdesk is quick with their response, help topics are laid out simply and you can even talk with someone on that side to ask your questions. Overall, KiSSFLOW is a much easier workflow and system to use.

  • The only real hard number savings that we have had with KiSSFLOW is the money we have saved in forms being printed, especially multi-part forms. So for a small college like us that it probably in the $5000 to $10000 per year range. We have certainly saved money in increased efficiencies of the processes that we have moved to KiSSFLOW. But that is harder to calculate.
