Nintex Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using the docgen api to enable our customers to use a document automation workflow. Our customers are lawyers from various law firms in the U.S., and they are heavily involved with generating new documents in their daily lives. Using our Clio’s vast data within the law firm and using Nintex’s docgen api, we’ve been able to let the lawyers create automated docgen in different file extensions

Likelihood to Recommend

Nintex does a nice job enabling document automation workflow quite fast and nicely. However, the security part of the api is always in question. Nintex uses the third-party docgen api itself, which could pose a client data sensitivity breach. Hopefully, the developers get more clarity on how the team is handling the PII in the near future

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My organization uses Nintex to map business processes and improve them. This addresses the business problem of incomplete documentation and helps with transitioning responsibilities when people switch roles or a new person joins the organization. For the scope of our use of Process Manager, we try to focus mainly on interdepartmental processes, as Process Manager is designed for these.

Likelihood to Recommend

Nintex works well for linear processes that have multiple players. It's helpful to capture the triggers for why a process begins and the outputs it creates. It does have a way to link subprocesses. It's not as helpful for processes that are done by a single user (SOPs seem to work better for this) or iterative processes.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Nintex Forms and Workflows in our on-premise SharePoint environment. It has helped unlock additional capabilities that the out-of-the-box workflow features in SharePoint simply does not have. It helps with our approval process, allows us to create complex workflows, allows us to create user-friendly forms, and the entire company can benefit from these enhancements. The user-friendly and visual nature of the workflow and form designers allows even users with minimal SharePoint knowledge the ability to create complex workflows to meet their needs.

Likelihood to Recommend

Nintex has been great in an on-premise SharePoint environment. We assume it would be equally as good in the cloud. Nintex has been crutial to our business as users are able to approve workflows on their mobile devices through LazyApprovals without needing to access SharePoint on their phone or go to a computer. The user-friendly and visual nature of the workflow and form designers allows even users with minimal SharePoint knowledge the ability to create complex workflows and design custom forms to meet their needs.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our company uses Nintex as a platform for intake forms and workflow automations to increase efficiency and tracking across multiple departments within our organization, primarily in our SharePoint environment. With dynamic controls, the ability to create and recall variables from different sources, and rules to perform unique functionality, it is far superior to the default SharePoint list form.

Likelihood to Recommend

Nintex is well-suited for our SharePoint lists as it provides a more user-friendly intake form and has the look and feel of a professional form based on standard practices within our department. It is not currently able to be used in document libraries, so I believe that if it could be in the future, there would be a place to attach documents and then have additional fields for inputting metadata into columns in the library.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Nintex Workflow is a powerful automation tool that streamlines business processes directly within SharePoint.

We use it to manage documents efficiently, ensuring smooth approvals and version control.

For contracts, Nintex helps automate reviews, signatures, and compliance tracking.

In HR, it streamlines tasks such as onboarding, leave requests, and employee records.

It also supports order management by automating requests, approvals, and notifications.

Likelihood to Recommend

Nintex is still the best Workflow designer, especially on-premises.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We love using the software for building bots and automating various processes. Thanks to this software, we have saved hundreds of hours every day! We have numerous repetitive tasks in our operations, compliance, and IT departments, which run on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. Without the RPA bot software, we would be significantly behind schedule. We were able to downsize or not backfill jobs that were lost because we could automate certain tasks, allowing others to absorb the workload. Plus, there is a community where you can get advice on fixing issues with your bot software. If you get stuck again, simply use the select tool to point to exactly what you are trying to grab. Again, it is super helpful, and it saves time and resources, allowing us to more effectively focus on our work. We don't have to waste time gathering data. We can make quick decisions and then use the saved time to increase our workload. I can not recommend this enough. I love the software and hope my work never gets rid of it.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is great in compliance, for example. We use it to build spreadsheets and pull data. We also have the capability to create reports, which are then sent out to managers and upper management on a regular schedule. This allows us to focus on our reviews rather than gathering the information we need.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Process Manager- helps build process knowledge, with change management, project implementation, and conversations about behavioral changes and automations.

Likelihood to Recommend

I cannot find reasons why I need to hold the same opinion I had when Promapp was adopted, but I am persevering and hope that something good could come out of this.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Nintex is used to design workflows for approval processes. As an example, consider a purchase process where each step must be approved by different managers, and at the end of the process, the requester receives a notification.

Likelihood to Recommend

Automation of approval processes in HR, procurement, or administration, where it is necessary to coordinate multiple approvers. Not suitable where extreme speed and performance are required.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

While my team doesn't currently use Nintex, I have direct experience with it from a comprehensive evaluation project I was involved in. My team were tasked with solving inefficiencies in our manual process for Control-M job requests. We identified Nintex as a potential low-code solution. Our proposed plan was to use Nintex Forms to capture job requests, with a workflow that would upload submitted forms to SharePoint and automatically create a task in our ITSM portal.

Likelihood to Recommend

I think Nintex is great for automating simple, everyday business tasks. For example, it works well for approval processes such as getting approvals for vacation requests or signing off on expenses. Nintex can also replace paper forms digitizing things like new hire paperwork or surveys, making them easy to fill out or track.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Nintex's K2 is used to automate business process and enable the digitalizing of business processes. Business problems include managing cost estimations to managing inventory to managing input and approvals for different process that allow for creating visibility and tracking of processes. The user base for different applications range from 1 to 2000 in some cases.

Likelihood to Recommend

The solution we use, K2 Automation, is specifically suited for enabling business processes and allowing the formal monitoring of workflows through integration and automation.

Building of low code solutions is quick and easy but are lacking in testing and auto deployment (CI/CD). The existing tools can be updated to be more productive.
