KiSSFLOW has proven to be a versatile tool for streamlining business processes in a variety of industries and organizations. Users have found that by digitizing forms and automating workflows, they can eliminate paper trails and significantly improve efficiency. For example, local companies have been able to replace their manual approval processes with KiSSFLOW, allowing for cloud-based submission and approval from anywhere. This has not only saved time but also improved responsiveness to requests as users can easily track the progress of workflows and take necessary actions to move them forward.

One of the key strengths of KiSSFLOW is its flexibility in accommodating different workflows. An entire college, for instance, uses KiSSFLOW for approximately 25 different workflows ranging from new employee requests to new course requests. The integration with G-Suite has also been highly appreciated by users, as it allows for easy editing and the convenience of receiving workflow requests via email with reminders. This has made it approachable for users who may not be familiar with complex workflow management systems.

The benefits extend beyond administrative processes as well. KiSSFLOW has been effective in managing media campaign project proposals, ensuring form enforcement, centralized information repository, and streamlined workflow management. In sales teams, KiSSFLOW helps submit prospective client credit and setup information, reducing reliance on multiple emails and expediting the account setup process.

Overall, KiSSFLOW proves to be a valuable tool for businesses looking to automate their workflows and improve operational efficiency. Its ability to handle various use cases across different departments and industries makes it a versatile solution that addresses issues such as lack of information, operational control, and improves overall efficiency and service quality.

Clear and Intuitive User Interface: Users have consistently praised the clear and intuitive user interface of Kissflow, making it incredibly easy to use and navigate. Many reviewers have expressed their appreciation for how easily they can see workflow tasks assigned to them, as well as workflows they have participated in or are pending approval from others. The user-friendly interface allows for quick and efficient completion of tasks.

Cloud-based Accessibility: The cloud-based nature of Kissflow is highly valued by users, with many expressing their appreciation for the ability to access the software from any internet-connected device. This eliminates the need to be on a specific network and makes it convenient for users who are always on the go. The accessibility ensures prompt response to tasks, avoiding bottlenecks.

Automation Capabilities: Users have highly praised the automation capabilities of Kissflow, noting that it significantly reduces the need for paper in menial tasks and enables the automation of entire processes. This feature has been particularly appreciated by educational institutions as it eliminates manual paper-based processes such as obtaining signatures or initials.

Difficulties in Reusing Existing Tasks: Some users have expressed frustration with the lack of a copy-paste function when creating workflows in Kissflow, making it challenging to reuse existing tasks across different branches. This can be particularly inconvenient when only minor tweaks are required.

Limited Flexibility in User Interface: Reviewers have noted that the user interface of Kissflow lacks flexibility. They feel that having options to group apps under categories or customize the look and feel of the page would greatly enhance their experience and improve usability.

Learning Curve for Transitioning from Paper-Based Processes: Customers who have transitioned from paper-based processes to Kissflow have mentioned that there is a learning curve involved, especially for non-visual learners. Additional training and support may be necessary to help employees adapt to the change effectively.

Users commonly recommend the following:

Start with simple apps and gradually build skills. This approach allows users to develop the necessary skills and understanding of the platform without overcomplicating workflow processes.

Set up a proper step-by-step flow from the start. Ensure that all necessary users have access to approve, which helps maintain an efficient flow and prevents bottlenecks or delays in the process.

Utilize Kissflow's customization capabilities to create customized workflows tailored to specific business needs. This allows for more optimized processes and better alignment with company requirements.

  • You can design your own workflow by determining what information is required, who a ticket routes to, and who gives final approval.
  • Interact with other involved parties, easily answering questions and delivering feedback throughout the entire process.
  • Access your complete ticket history. If there's a file that you need from a past ticket (that perhaps you can't find on your own desktop) it's easy to find in KiSSFLOW.
  • KiSSFLOW functions completely adequately, but I have fairly high expectations when it comes to software. In terms of interface and user-friendliness, it's somewhat average.

  • Streamlines invoice approval process.
  • Holds people accountable for their purchases.
  • Keeps us on budget and helps in getting answers on purchase orders quickly.
  • Difficulty exporting reports to personal email
  • Slow response to technical issues
  • There is no ability to get into older POs to clear out or investigate. It would be nice to have access to anything over 3 months old.

  • I appreciate the automatic email notifications when it is your turn to complete a task. This keeps everyone on track.
  • I appreciate being able to "reassign" a task as well--leaving flexibility for some folks to cover for others when needed.
  • I appreciate the personal check-ins from our rep, asking how things are going. That makes me feel like someone is paying attention and wants me to be happy with the product.
  • I would like to see the option of having two different people assigned to a task, and whoever gets to it first can accomplish it instead of an administrator having to reassign in some cases.
  • It would be nice if a comprehensive record (spreadsheet?) could be kept, capturing and codifying the data input into KiSSFLOW forms along each sequence of tasks.

  • 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.
  • Learning. If you are coming from a 100% paper process and have employees who know nothing more, then there is definitely a learning curve. You will need to bring someone in to help you train employees on the core concept of the change (the "Why are we doing this" questions). KiSSFLOW does have support, but this is more getting down to the details in your own work environment.
  • Visual learners will love it, but not non-visual. If you are an accountant, and your brain works like an accountant, then this program will be difficult to learn. It is very visual, and I have seen more success with visual learners than any others.
  • Bugs. A few years ago, there were a lot of bugs. There are not that many anymore. This is to be expected with any program, so if you are training an impatient staff who doesn't do well with error messages, you will want to be sure to pad the training sessions. I have not seen error messages in a long time; however, the nature of the beast is that you won't see one until you actually find one...

  • Process - Course changes, additions, and cancellations.
  • Decision-making - Program course substitution requests
  • Decision-making - Course prerequisite waiver requests
  • Decision-making -Approval of intern site requests
  • Perhaps an easier way to breakdown content areas for the assigning tasks.
  • I really can not think of any additional recommendations. KiSSFLOW really does a nice job of routing the materials.

  • Ease of Use: It's easier to use and see workflow tasks that are assigned to you, workflows that you've participated in, or workflows that are pending other peoples approvals. From a development side, it's easy to pick up and begin creating processes if you know Excel formulation, which is easily researched as well.
  • Ease of Access: Since KiSSFLOW is hosted in the cloud, you can access the site from any internet connected device. All you have to do is sign in with your account, as opposed to needing to be on the network to access like our previous system.
  • The App: This is a feature we really hope to get a lot of use out of. With the way our business is structured, there are a lot of Regional positions that are always on the go. Because our current system requires a user to be on the network to access, this makes it hard for these roles to respond to tasks, causing bottlenecks. With an app available, along with push notifications, we can keep these tasks responses on pace with the associates required in that task.
  • 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.

  • We had been looking for a way to streamline an approval process for expenditures and found this company. Over the last few years, this tool has made our workflow seamless.
  • The support team from KiSSFLOW is also first rate. They respond very quickly to questions or concerns if or when they arise. We have been online with this service for several years with little problems.
  • The tool is extremely powerful and easy to customize. In the past, they helped us set up our first few forms too.
  • There are very few cons to using this software. In the early days, Google integration was problematic due to permissions. We contacted them and they customized and improved the file upload tool.

  • The status tracking of a work request is done well allowing people to see where their form is in the workflow.
  • Form creation and workflow creation are super easy.
  • With the G-Suite integration, user management is a snap.
  • The reporting could use some improvement. The actual reports are OK, it is access to the reports that is the problem. This is related to the permission schema. It really just has user, admin, and nothing in-between. There really needs to be something like report admin or something. Excel exports for data are needed as well.
  • The user workflow selection UI is not the best. There is a big red + sign in the lower right of the browser window that is not labeled. That is not clear. Also the selection list is just a pop-up window, it really should be a full page.
  • The mobile app does not have all the features that the browser version has, especially admin tools.
