Vetted Review

Across the whole organisation, it enables us to keep all our processes and risks in one place where they are easily accessed and read, linked when necessary, and updated regularly. It's managed by the Promaster (me). It allows for transparency with our processes across the company, when changes occur in a process, they can be updated easily. Having rolled out company wide training when we first implemented Promapp, refresh courses are quick and easy

- Add more than one expert
- Autosave
- More reporting option

Efficiency and a Great Tool!
Nintex Process Platform is being utilized for automating tasks in Sharepoint and having workflows constructed for efficiency in business process automation and doing so without much need for programming. It helps with financial analytics especially for us, where we can filter the data by A/R and A/P and with hyperlinks and with more reporting needs.
- Automation
- Financial Analytics
- Data Integration
- Within Marketing, provide marketing automation some more.
- Some options in Nintex On-Premise may not be the same as Online.
- Perhaps a certification program would be great.

Good process platform
Nintex Process Platform has helped us document all of our internal processes to gear up and get ready for a digital transformation. It has helped us understand waste within our processes and align different parts of the business to a common customer journey. It is a platform that enables you to choose the view you want to see of the process, whether that be at a high level or a detailed view. It is great to share process ideas, embed videos and hyperlinks, and give a great understanding of processes to new users.
- Process Map.
- Link different parts of the business together.
- Train people.

Automation of complex processes made easy
Nintex Forms and Workflow are being used across the organization, from sourcing and manufacturing to sales and services. While Nintex Forms is mostly used to address local problems or opportunities, workflows often reach across functions and automate complex business processes.
In manufacturing, typical examples for Forms would be inspection checklists, forms to submit employee ideas, quality checklists, forms to generate more sophisticated surveys, etc.
Workflows range from simple requests such as for master data creation or modification, to those tracking new product introductions or vendor creations. The most complex ones reach not only through functions but also through geographic regions.

Workflows range from simple requests such as for master data creation or modification, to those tracking new product introductions or vendor creations. The most complex ones reach not only through functions but also through geographic regions.
- Intuitive low-code environment for form and workflow design.
- User friendly interface for the business users.
- Flexible tools, easily adaptable to most business problems.
- Scalable solutions.
- Workflow tasks can’t be assigned to shared mailboxes. The workaround solutions are not ideal when a step has to be assigned to a group of people and not one specific person.
- Forms became much easier to use in recent versions, but form designers can still get stuck at requirements that seem rather easy, for example, list look-ups.

Nintex Platform Review
We use Nintex Platform to automate the time management in our organization. This means, the whole process of time stamping correction, holiday and absence requests, approvals, etc. Also, in general, for document and record management in SharePoint, especially when an approval is needed.
- User management
- Quasi-looping, list management
- Access to various object properties
- Debugging
- Occasionally workflows will stop with cryptic messages, no real clue why
- More powerful / object-oriented data manipulation
Nintex Process Platform is used across the whole organization. We use it to digitalize our business processes within the SharePoint environment. Easy to use but depending on the SharePoint settings. Could be more stable. We also use Nintex Forms. But the Nintex product seems to be fine for On-Prem but very expensive in the cloud. So have a focus on the market to check also other workflow tools.
- User friendly
- Easy to integrate with SharePoint
- Nice visalization
- Good overview about process status
- Improvement of stability
- Better performance
- Cloud service price is expensive

Nintex Workflow, a concrete and relevant solution to digitalize your business processes
Nintex Workflow is used for digitalization of business process across the whole organisation, and mainly for document validation. It allows different business units to collaborate on a consistent business process without handling paper and facing confidentiality issues. Workflows built with Nintex for those business process allows process homogeneity, flexibility and scalability.
Nintex Workflow is used with Nintex Forms in order to offer customized task form to users.
Nintex Workflow is used with Nintex Forms in order to offer customized task form to users.
- Workflow editing is easy and targets business users, thanks to the UI designer, where no code is required for most of the actions to implement within the workflow. Modeling workflows is not an IT activity anymore for 90% of the use cases.
- Integrated UI. using Nintex Workflow is done with SharePoint UI, which is really comfortable for the user.
- Nintex Deployment within SharePoint is easy, for an on-premise or online environment. It doesn't require extra servers and all the administration activities can be done through SharePoint Central administration.
- Nintex Live provides many connectors in order to interact with other application than SharePoint.
- Big workflows require to be split into several smaller workflows, otherwise, performance issues can be met.
- Nintex Workflow for Office 365 suffers from SharePoint online limitations. Some workflows built for SharePoint OnPremise may not be built as easily for SharePoint online.
- UI Translation into other languages is not complete.

Review
We currently use it for some of our applications and business processes. I know it is used through several departments in the county, but is used quite regularly in our office.
Problems have been not receiving the completed applications back from the Nintex "cloud" on our public facing form.

- Relaying info to a list/spreadsheet
- Making it building a form more user friendly, so the basic user can create forms with basic logic without having much jscript background

Modest workflow with Major results
I am using Nintex workflow to create approval workflows for the multiple forms on SharePoint. Nintex is connect to the SharePoint and Outlook. We have forms which need multiple levels of approval in them. This is very time-consuming to set up. The challenge was to notify the approver, register the approval, inform the requester of the result and finally document the approval for the future reference. Through Nintex, it’s very simple, fast and very systematized. The process is simple to follow. The notification comes directly to your Outlook inbox after approval rejected / approved the answer will come directly to the requesters inbox. This is very simple and effective and the amount of time saved in this process was really remarkable.
- Simple and easy interface
- Connected with the system and cloud integrations
- Create really complex and simple workflows based on your needs
- Great usability and end results
- You can create a simple training video for how to use it. I do not think there are any possibility of the improvements in this product.
- You could market this product more - very few people knows about it.
- I love the product and we are very addicted to it at this product.

Powerful Automation For Power Users
We have implemented the Nintex Platform on our SharePoint 2013 On-Prem environment and have been successfully automating processes since 2014. We started small with a few key business processes and expanded over the years across multiple business units and departments. Today we have automated over 100 processes including HR onboarding/offboarding, employee access requests and safety forms to name just a few.
- Quick to learn if you have some technical ability.
- Non developers are able to build powerful workflows.
- Able to quickly deliver results to the business.
- Support for on premise seems to be slowing down and Nintex is pushing to move to the cloud.
- Nintex support can be slow to resolve issues with the product.
- In my experience, non technical users will have difficulty building good workflows.

Nintex is well worth using and learning
It was used for workflows in automating most of the business processes including call monitoring as well as cstat scores and clients' opinions on how service was rendered. It made reporting on call's from clients easier and more accurate allowing for improvement of service and happier end customers. It is also very powerful and detailed for setting up these reports.
- Form Development
- Data Collection
- Data Analysis
- Error notifications are very generic and hard to use
- Form design does not allow custom button design easily
- Lag of a debugger during design
Promapp is being used across the entire organisation for all of the purposes of the tool, training, help, support, and most importantly continuous improvement.
- It's great for representing processes.
- Ease of use in process development.
- Simple to use.
- Nintex I feel has lost its way with Promapp.

Nintex is ultra user friendly
We are using Nintex Forms and Workflow as our primary form software for SharePoint 2016. Nintex is being used across the whole organization on a departmental basis. We are using Nintex Forms to replace the many InfoPath forms we have before the Microsoft support runs out. Nintex is also providing more options to connect to external database sources.
- Nintex Platform allows you to easily turn a SharePoint list into a dynamic and robust form that is attractive and end user friendly.
- Nintex Platform is entirely web based and requires absolutely no additional software but is feature rich.
- Nintex Platform has a large user community who will answer questions.
- Nintex installs directly on top of SharePoint instead of requiring an additional server.
- Nintex integrates with SharePoint seamlessly.
- Some of the controls for Nintex Forms are not complete or could use some refining and require additional programming to get them to work correctly. For example the SQL Request control does not allow you to easily use a text list fields as a parameter when you are calling a SQL Function. If you want to force a list field to be of the type string you would usually put single quotes around it. But it would then see the variable name as the string value rather than the value of the variable being the string value. I had to add some weird coding to work around this. Funny thing, it works if you are calling a Stored Procedure.
- There is no way to get a table back from a SQL Function like you could in InfoPath. In Nintex it only allows you to get back single values. This means that if you want to get multiple values from SQL it will require multiple SQL Requests. This works but it is very inefficient.
- In Nintex Workflow it allows you to easily get individual values from a people person field such as the Display Name, Email, Username, etc. But in Nintex Forms you can only get one value which is the username in the cryptic Claims Based version of the user ID. Therefore for each people field I have to also create a separate name, email and username calculated control that will calculate the values I need rather than being able to simply reference the people field and specify that I want the Name, Email, Username, etc.
- The Nintex Form SQL controls will only allow you to connect to text fields instead of being able to connect to multi-line text fields meaning they have a 255 character limit. But if a user needs to select more than 255 characters from a SQL Request Selection it will become difficult to write it back to a list. I had to write it to a workflow variable which thankfully could handle more than 255 characters. Then I could write the workflow variable to a multi-line text list field. Nintex calculated fields also will only connect to text fields instead of being able to write to multi-line text fields meaning that they also have a 255 character limit.

Feedback For Success
Today we use the tool as a workflow solution for payment flow to external customers. The tool is used by all companies in the Brazilian division.
In the past we sent a document by mail to the client, the client signed and stamped the document and returned via mail to the company, today it follows the entire approval flow, both from the client and the manager via workflow at Nintex. In the old process it took us 45 days to pay our customers, today it takes us around 5 days. It was also a complicated process, because with the size of Brazil, the document was lost in the mail, so we had to issue a new document to get all due approvals again.
Today the Manager receives a link from the workflow to approve, he approves, the client receives the document to approve, and is sent to the accounts payable department.
- Friendly.
- Easy.
- Complete.
- Workflow error - it is bad!
- Little content on the internet.
- Many versions.
