Nintex Workflow for Sharepoint

Overall Satisfaction with Nintex Platform

We use it as an approval solution to improve our workflows and business-related processes. The approval of mandatory HR processes are rebuilt without any paper usage in the Nintex workflow engine. The Nintex forms that we are using are already checking for the needed information. Also, the connection with SAP is improving these processes.
  • User handling
  • Solution providing
  • On premise behind cloud
  • Special points in user handling UI
  • Cost reduction of paper use
  • Time reduction
We use it in our on-prem SharePoint solution that's getting more and more implementation in the company. For the QM side, we used it as claim tool and to mange approval. For example, vacation and mobile work schedules. If we would upgrade our system or change to another it's urgently required that Nintex is also able to manage the new version or system because otherwise, all processes have to be rebuilt.
We as IT gave the tool to non-IT guys to implement solutions for the requirements because IT doesn't know exactly what facility management needs. So we gave them the tool and help in explanation but the processes and workflows are managed by themselves. We take care that Nintex is reachable and functional in all points that are required by the departments.
The usability and implementation of other tools like Theobald. Other companies shared our experience with that tool also. This was the main reason why we chose Nintex as the solution for us and our processes.
Well suited:
  • Process and approval digitalization, user handling, and workflow optimization like HR processes or rebuild automation for the approval matrix.
  • It's well implemented in the system architecture with Microsoft products.

Less suited:
  • Some parts that are useful are not implemented in the on-prem version of Nintex. What is in some parts is making life a little bit difficult because user finds the solution in the cloud version and wishes that it was also possible in the on-prem version.
  • Some technical scenarios are not possible. For example, ADFS or something similar, but that's not directly a problem from Nintex itself. This is a mix from Microsoft and the engine.
