Errors are not as difficulty to address after trial and error. I have encountered errors in SharePoint Designer WorkFlows. Based on my experience, Nintex WorkFlows are lot easier to work with and troubleshoot.
The multitude of actions, that can be configured to create various Nintex WorkFlows, are endless. These actions can be mixed and matched to meet your customer requirements.
Use of use with CSS and customizations.,Though Nintex WorkFlows are great for administrators, they are not designed for developers who have to utilize workarounds in order to accomplish simple actions.
For SharePoint migrations from 2010 to 2013, it appears that Nintex may not issue migration licenses as quickly as your customer may expect.
Nintex is not a cheap product to purchase. Customers must assess their needs, requirements and budget before investing in Nintex licenses.,9,Nintex offers process automation that simplifies business solutions. Learning how to use all of the actions is not as time consuming as other WorkFlows I have configured before.
The learning curve on creating, maintaining and troubleshooting Nintex WorkFlows heightens productivity. Plus, I can appreciate the online courses offered on their Nintex community site along with live support assistance if and when the occasion rises.
I have noticed less WorkFlow bottlenecks; This improves efficiency, controls expenditure of time, money, resources and drives process improvements.,I use Nintex WorkFlows in SharePoint 2013 on-premise. Nintex platform serves as a base for all of our program WorkFlows. We don't use the default SharePoint WorkFlows nor SharePoint Designer WorkFlows. They don't meet the customer's requirements.,Nintex Workflows are being used by non-IT personnel as well as for IT personnel who maintain it. Non-IT personnel use Nintex WorkFlows for task assignment and document accountability for each sub-dept that works on in-bound and existing documents. Nintex WorkFlows delivers our work to our customer seamlessly.,Microsoft Office 365, Microsoft Azure, MS SharePoint, Microsoft IIS and SharePoint Designer,SharePoint Designer, Microsoft Office 365, MS SharePoint, JIRA Service DeskMelissa KattkeNifty Stuff with Nintex2018-10-19T16:38:34.280ZIt is being used across our entire firm. We use it for a whole host of things from automatically categorizing reports sent into our SharePoint site, to lookups for adding addition relevant information to our properties of our reports, and most importantly for gaining approvals on our reports and other sensitive documents.,The graphical interface for producing the workflows make the process very easy to understand and to implement.
There is a lot of built in functionality that just doesn't exist in the standard SP workflows like Loops and FOR/NEXT, and accessing other sites within a workflow.
The support is very good and the suite of tools from workflows to form building and mobile phone support allows great development of large applications.,Trouble shooting remains a difficult task. It would be helpful if there were a manual dedicated solely to building trouble shooting actions and processes for Nintex.
This may be my lack of investigation but to learn how to build forms or build mobile solutions it would also be good to have access to in-depth training videos.
I also think there should be a better way to search a design workflow to find references to fields or variables. This would allow a quicker way to find areas of a workflow that deals with these fields or vars.,10,Unfortunately I do not have an ROI but I do feel the ease of use and increased functionality of the Nintex workflows has saved time in developing solutions for our business.,We use Nintex in our SharePoint environment. I already stated in the other questions how important the Nintex platform has been for our use in SharePoint.,Our business is using the end results of our development of workflows and forms. This is done automatically when our business emails reports and documents into SharePoint our workflow automatically run doing many things among the most used is our approval process.Alan HoytNintex Platform products increase productivity and provide a solid return on investment2018-10-19T15:21:17.023ZNintex Workflow for SharePoint is being used extensively by various projects at SPAWAR and US Navy.Most workflows involve some form of business process automation involving various activities such as tasking, event tracking, document management, issues, etc....,Provides many more actions, constructs and functions than SharePoint Designer or most other 3rd party tools
The ability to export and import workflows saves time and effort
Nintex Workflow is extensible and allows user defined actions and nearly limitless potential using standard components,We are not particular crazy about some of the action property dialogues. Some seem to be awkward when adding/editing email body for example
Wish there was a way to open 2 workflows and then copy/paste actions between them,9,Positive Impact: Ability to easily reuse existing workflows and design
Positive Impact: Ability for non-developers to create and maintain their own workflows
Positive Impact: Complex business problems can be implemented due to the Nintex constructs and available list of actions,SharePoint 2010.
Deployment flexibility is key as we do not have access to the SharePoint architecture only site collections.
The hosting service simply installs and activates Nintex then designates Site Collection Administrators (SCA) to manage the environment.,Non-IT staff are using the Nintex workflow platform as standard user but all of the workflow development, management and control currently resides with IT staff.,Scott WallaceNintex Workflow, the SharePoint Workflow System I've encountered.2018-08-22T02:32:20.925ZNintex is the Swiss Army Knife of SharePoint. It allows me to create numerous workflows, synchronize lists, and performed timed operations. It can do many operations that took server-oriented code or complex JavaScript. It also comes with a form designer package that allows for custom validations and attractive formatting.One example that I've used many times is to have a list workflow synchronize with a dependent list. Several examples of timed Nintex Site Workflows involve end or the month reporting or weekly overdue notices. With the notices, I am able to don individual users as well a provide a summary report to the administrator. Another example of a timed workflow process is when I generate new report records for all team members for the next week; also, in the same workflow I lock down permissions on the existing records to read-only.Nintex has great looping and querying of lists within a site. I can easily get an array of all the ids in a list such as team members, then use that array in a forEach loop to create records in another list specific for those individuals.,Does a tremendous job of loop through arrays and querying lists for specific conditions.
Some tasks are easy from the get-go like notifying a user on changes or new items. These tasks can be set up in minutes.
Time processes are easy to instantiate with the workflow timer.,This is an article I wrote on upgrading Nintex to World Class: https://community.nintex.com/community/dev-talk/blog/2017/01/05/upgrading-nintex-workflows-to-world-class.
They need a better function library for String and Date Manipulation
A For Loop with Counter controls instead of just a For Each iterating over collection.
An Action Control to separate individuals for Person Controls containing group.,9,Allows me to complete systems several days faster than having develop code natively.
Security in having timed processes execute without external effort.,We use Nintex in our On-premise SharePoint 2013. It is important to me as a developer to create custom workflow and form solutions.,SharePoint DesignerStephan OnisickNintex for enterprise digitization2018-11-21T00:50:02.744ZWe are using it enterprise-wide to provide electronic forms and associated workflows help digitize elements of our business.
