Nintex process platform is used for mapping and storing cross processes to be share across different departments. It is easy to use. However mapping complex processes we still need to use Visio.
- Map simple process
- Link procedures to processes
- Link processes and activity within processes to different roles
- Mapping higher business processes is not possible with Nintex process platform formally promapp

Nintex--A robust business process management solution
Nintex Platform solves issues of pre-onboarding prospects, onboarding clients, and day to day client services. It assists in moving away from all email communication to more communication through Slack and Salesforce. It has helped us to automate business processes and has helped users to be productive even while out of the office. It is user-friendly to create forms that can be available on desktops and mobile devices.
- Dropbox business team management
- Google Drive
- Collection processes
- One cannot access the “Run as workflow owner” checkbox inside action set when it is placed on a state machine branch.
- It is difficult to control permissions to lists when the items have item-level permissions.

The installation was not a problem at any time.The initial setup was straightforward. During the trial, the team had installed it.
The deployment and maintenance team is approximately five people. We have three environments, and five people to handle the deployments and batch updates.
Helps in scheduling meetings, to share documents, and create complete visibility of HR policies; helps in administrative work (creating workflows that complete essential HR processes, without printing a single page).
1) Nintex integrates with your workflows with the instant-messaging program, social media, email, and practical integration of all kinds of data and documents.
2) It also offers easy drag-and-drop workflow design that saves a lot of time
3) It could be used on multiple devices such as MS Windows and Mac OS

The feature that I found most valuable is the deeper loops, and also deeper schedules so that you can schedule a particular workflow to a particular type.
Initially, the product was very stable, but with few isssues here and there, in any case, we are now at a point where we are trying to move away from Nintex.
- Implemented in-house
Change management was a small part of the implementation and was well-handled
- When running a large workflow it can be very difficult to determine which action caused the issue. Also, due to the large amount of actions running, having the correct timing or sequence of update actions is also difficult to manage. To resolve these types of issues splitting the workflow is also recommended.

THE BOTTOM LINE is Nintex Workflow Cloud has arguably the best visual workflow editing and automated logic environment of all the low-code development platforms we've tested, but its basic app UI design and database capabilities need deeper integration and improvement.
The pros are:
Drag-and-drop workflow editing.
Strong integrations.
Native Nintex Mobile app
Superb workflow automated and logic rule creation.
Built-in task assignment and management.

Nintex Platform's Efficient Product
Nintex Platform is used business wide alongside SharePoint. We use it in many lists with Nintex Platform forms, and we use Nintex Platform workflows to automate manual processes. We have hundreds of workflows and many forms. Nintex Platform has been instrumental in aiding different business departments to become more efficient and enable resources to be used in a more productive manner.
- Nintex Platform forms allow for a modern, user friendly experience with the ability to hide and show fields as needed.
- Nintex Platform workflows enable manual processes to become automated with one or several steps.
- Nintex Platform responsive design needs to allow for code.
- Nintex Platform responsive design tends to slow down after several minutes of use, or the form becomes long.

- Nintex Platform has saved several departments resource time.
- Nintex Platform has helped departments become more efficient.
We use the Nintex Platform in all of our environments, as well as internally and externally. The Nintex Platform must continue to improve its product and listen to the customers because we provide support to all of our users through the Nintex Platform. If we can't offer what the users want, then the Nintex Platform would not be able to be our only option to go to.
We generally only allow IT staff to use Nintex Platform. Forms can be used by non-IT once they are trained, but because Nintex Platform allows for web service calls and logical thinking, workflows are currently restricted to IT. I think that in time, business users who are trained to use Nintex forms could implement simple forms to allow for a nicer UX.
We only use Nintex.

There are the Nintex Admin, who administer, create and build Nintex forms and workflows. There are the business users that use Nintex behind the scenes, usually without knowing it, and use the Nintex forms and workflows which have helped automate their business processes.

These are people who are in IT. They are developers and system administrators who not only have the technical background needed to administer a software product like Nintex, but they have also been trained on Nintex as well. I have been Nintex Workflow Professional certified.

We have been using Nintex for several years, and a lot of our forms and workflows are built with it. We are aware of the other options in the business, but we have found that working with Nintex provides the solutions that we are looking for and the customer service to back it up.
I would not change anything. We would continue with Nintex.
- Implemented in-house
Change management was minimal
Nintex Platform has been a part of our business since I started here 8 years ago. We continue to use it without interruption and without the thought of using another software.

Train your users! I would recommend IT folks but if you use business users, make sure you incorporate technically inclined business users since some of the workflow steps can reach out to web services.

I had a question about the Nintex Outlook step that I could not figure out. The workflow was failing and I did not understand the message it was giving me. I reached out to Nintex, thinking it was a workflow issue, and the technician continued to discuss the issue and do the research necessary to fix it. The issue wound up being Exchange permissions, which we would not have figured out without his help.
- The Nintex forms are easy to use.
- Basic Nintex workflow steps are easy, such as the email notification.
- Nintex Responsive design tends to slow down if the form gets too large.
- I wish Nintex Responsive forms allowed for code.
- SharePoint
We use Nintex alongside SharePoint in most things we do. Any SharePoint list that needs a special form or automation behind it uses Nintex. We have over hundreds of Nintex forms and workflows throughout our business.
- SharePoint
It already does.
- File import/export
We reach out to web services as well.
Keep using it, it's a wonderful product!
I'm not sure on this question.
They were wonderful to work with!
Yes
Yes, the process went smoothly and there were no major impacts. We updated the software through Central Admin and tested it first on our Development and Staging environment, and then rolled it out to Production. We did testing through our SharePoint lists and workflows and established that the upgrade had gone according to plan.

Simple, yet efficient
Nintex is being used across the lower 48 for our company to track our behavior-based safety performance. Slight adjustments have been made to the program/forms to make it more user-friendly, but the biggest issue that we have found is the mobile application does not work. I have contacted multiple groups with no successes. Even when logging into the server via computer, I receive many reports of persons entering BBS cards but for some reason, they do not show up in any report.
- The mobile application, when working, is particularly good - for remote workers that are in the field to enter information in a timely manner.
- The interface with our company's Spotfire dashboard for BBS reports is very easy to view and analyze.
- Streamline the mobile application.
- The times that I have contacted Nintex via phone or email, it was very difficult to find contact information.
- Even in using a company's server or a database, I think it would be good to have a single point of contact or owner that a person using the system could contact for issues or suggestions.

- Moving from a paper form, scan, review in the database, and then have to pull reports when needed through one or two people, too a completely digital system has saved 10's of thousands of dollars across every asset.
- Due to various aspects of the system not working; having everyone in the system, not uploading every card, and the mobile application not working. The participation in our Behavior-Based Safety Program dropped drastically.
Induvial input with reports being pulled to share in large groups to direct attention on focus points of need.
Flexibility is key with the number of induvial users with various backgrounds, from persons with years of experience on computers to people turning a computer on for the first time.
Yes, most users have very little to no IT background.
Employees are entering data by logging on to company Spotfire dashboard or through the mobile application built for Conoco Phillips.
Nintex has been easier to use for being self instructed. Nintex has been simple enough that even with the lack of support a person can use it.

with Nintex linking to a company owned share site, the local support is insuring data being entered, some computer background. Most of our support actually comes from Nintex
- Track BBS participation
- Provide easy to read reports of BBS participation and specific safety concerns identified from our BBS program
- Dashboard and tracking tool for focus audits on field activities
- Able to share data across multiple functions and across large areas of activity with one platform
- Able to see and review data from Texas to Montana and every asset between in one spot
- different data basis,, but right now the company is looking to go away from Nintex due to what I have been told is a lack of support and possible security issues

for JW Toups, we where being charged for every aspect, site use, changes, interface, documentation, ect
Nickle and dime with the feelings that for some reason they had use over a barrel as if we could not go anywhere else

NO I have never seen exceptional support, I have call to talk to someone and was on the phone for 1.5 hours trying to talk to the right person, just to be told that the issues are being worked

- Nothing really difficult or cumbersome just all purposed systems don't work on a regular basis
- not sure when or for who the Mobile ap is going to work
- persons report data entered is not completely entered or uploaded later - not sure if this is an Nintex problem or user error
Yes
for two years I have been trying to get the Mobile interface to work for myself and many in our work group with limited success
Mobile interface only works for about 35% of our work force

Nintex Offers Quick Workflows but Mired in Support Issues
We use Nintex to allow users to automate certain tasks on lists or list items in SharePoint. We also use it as a way to send out notifications. Users create workflows for their different business unit requirements. Many use it as a scaled down version of an ERP/Inventory tracking system.
- Non-technical users can implement somewhat complex solutions.
- Email notifications easy.
- Can see workflow task history visually.
- Error messages are completely vague, making it extremely difficult to debug.
- Failures occur for random reasons.
- Error notifications get sent out too frequently which confuse users.
- Not having to custom code things.
- Development resources not bogged down by simple automated workflows.
- Support nightmare for failed workflows.
- None
