Find out in this report how the two Business Process Management (BPM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's Amazon, it's scalable."
"What I like the most about Amazon Step Functions is how easy it is to use."
"It's a general solution that you can adapt to your own needs and is simple to use. We like that it can be integrated with everything in the AWS suite, and that the creation of the pipeline can be done using the graphical user interface."
"It is a scalable solution."
"One can rate all the calls and that is a good feature."
"The solution is stable...The solution is easy to scale."
"AWS Step Functions acts as a high-level layer, allowing us to seamlessly integrate with microservices."
"The number of historical events is great."
"It is very easy to use."
"It saves time as tasks are automated."
"It leverages the out-of-the-box SharePoint back-end. This means that you don’t need to install or deploy additional infrastructure to support Nintex Workflow, unlike some of its competitors."
"I like the feature of getting an email for a workflow error, then I do not have to go through every instance."
"It is very easy to use events. K2 has useful tools."
"It creates workflows to handle business processes. It allows us to route approvals to users without human intervention."
"We were able to meet all of the requirements for functionality that were specified, and we did not experience challenges where we had to compromise on functionality."
"This tool is really helpful in reducing a lot of manual work. Its drag and drop components help to create a workflow faster than SharePoint Workflow Designer."
"I would like to see more data transformation features in Amazon Step Functions like additional operators and logic."
"The pricing of the solution can be improved."
"The solution's data size limit can be improved."
"The interface can sometimes feel limited, as we're unable to see what AWS is running behind the scenes."
"The price and support are areas with shortcomings where the solution needs to improve."
"Setup took about one day. We had some errors to understand in the beginning, but now everything is working good."
"It is hard to coordinate the declaratory language."
"It wasn't easy to understand the licensing model. It's like if you use just a little, it's cheap, but it becomes more expensive as you use more. It's like a hook that ties you inside the Amazon ecosystem. So, it creates a dependency."
"Bring all features available from the on-premise product into the cloud version and the workflow error reporting."
"The cost of the solution is high and has room for improvement."
"The solution is a bit too expensive. It could be cheaper."
"Heavy, cumbersome and inflexible."
"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."
"Difficult to include external partners with the solution deployed on-premise."
"I would also like to see the BPM features from Pega implemented, that have to do with the implementation of AI, and the robotics."
"The Workflow Designer needs improvement."
