Nintex Process Platform is well suited across multiple industries --- finance, marketing, cloud, on-premise, and the programming for the workflows is all visual-based, and no need to have any complex workflow action elsewhere. Nintex Process Platform has all the tools enabled for that simplification and is very well customizable. Also, there is a good support resource available in the communities for any questions.

We changed from our old ASPX and Oracle databases by mapping the process that was actually used which makes it easy to view our company's processes to do this. Each step was to be better understand each of them and ensure continuous improvement, quality assurance, individual tasks, risk management, and productivity gains from optimization. Also keeping records and instantly changing the forms.

Nintex Process is very well suited for gaining visibility to anything you want to track using simple forms and want to be able to view the results in a nice worksheet style format. I love that it is easy to link to, using standard software such as access for added functionality. I am also very please I can place information on a page in the format I think works best. The one major drawback I see is the item limit on views. I would like to be able to allow my lists to grow over time instead of having to worry about hitting the item limit.

If you are looking to have an overall view and common understanding of your processes then Nintex Process Platform is the way to go. Far more dynamic than Visio, you have the ability to have detailed steps and link to other documentation. It is also good if you are starting out in your RPA journey and can link to other modules that are available through Nintex Process Platform.

Nintex Forms is great for digitizing existing paper and Excel-based forms, and in general for creating a user-friendly interface for all kinds of digital data submissions. By linking the form to a shared database such as a SharePoint list, the data is processed immediately and can be picked up right away for reporting, notifications, etc.

Nintex Workflow is well suited for automating and digitizing both simple and complex business processes. It is a more intuitive and powerful tool than similar products of their competitors.

I wouldn’t bother creating forms and workflows for the most simple use cases such as submitting a few data points and triggering notifications. The built-in O365 features will do the job just fine.

Any approval process is fairly good with Nintex Platform. One of the issues we faced was the performance of the built-in approval forms: they tend to be quite slow in performance, and the list of the open approvals does not get immediately updated as soon as an approval is given, so the users end up trying to approve already processed items.
The solution we developed was JavaScript based custom approval - it works, but the documentation is rather sketchy and object models are sometimes not really usefully made.

[Nintex Process Platform] is well suited for [users] who are less familiar with business processes and workflows. I can recommend it if you can rely on the server farm and its services.
It is less appropriate when you have to administrate SharePoint and the depending service with its updates and configuration, so a lot more work to do.

Nintex Workflow is really well suited for process automation within SharePoint applications. It improves in several manners the way to interact with people, data and processes, where low-value activities can be automated, and only added/high-value activities are still operated by business users. Nintex Workflow analytics (and now Hawkeye) provide many insights on the performance of your workflows.

Nintex Workflow is not well-targeted to implement a BPM architecture as such

Nintex is well suited to organizations with well defined, repeatable business processes that are currently manual. Nintex is best suited when used to automate easy to medium complex processes. Our organization made the mistake of automating some highly complex processes early on. While we were able to do it, they became a nightmare to maintain and support (enhancements requested by the business). If your organization is looking for a tool for automating highly complex processes, I would recommend traditional development (.NET for example).

It allows for [the] quick creation of forms to collect data/information.

If you need to collect lots of data and do analysis it can be difficult as errors will happen and there is not debugger.

However, the forms themselves can be very complicated and put together quickly as long as you step through them carefully.

For our purposes automation of workflows, especially workflows that require approval by multiple people is very easy to do with Nintex. This has allowed us to create multiple, complex workflows that have replaced many paper based processes. These workflows are used by all staff within our company (500+ people).

We do wish we could have more control over the look and feel of the interface.

The Nintex platform I would give a note of 8, although it is very good and complete, the person has to have some knowledge of workflow, some of programming, so that he can evolve well with the tool and bring the benefits that the person expects from the tool. For example for approval flow it is very good, but when we perform the workflow within Nintex, if the system gives an error and does not send the email requesting approval from the approver, you have to start the flow again. I opened a ticket and that was it information I had, and this is horrible thinking about a big and robust process where there are several requests going on. If it is a high flow of approval, I do not recommend it for this reason, but if it is a small demand, it would help a lot to use the Nintex workflow.
