Platform for documenting and modifying our processes
The tool was used for digital transformation. Our company operates in the automotive industry and needs a transition to digitalization. We utilize the BIC Platform for documenting and modifying our processes, as well as incorporating various elements such as KPIs. It serves as a fundamental tool for numerous aspects of our operations.

Have experienced challenges integrating with other systems but have benefited from improved process automation
There are multiple areas that need improvement. Nintex Process Platform needs integration with other platforms such as Salesforce and other CRM platforms. There should be actions available so we can directly integrate with these systems. Additionally, there is a gap in mathematical actions and logical actions. We need to parse data, and if we receive data in JSON, there is no action available in Nintex Process Platform to parse the data and extract data from that JSON string. Such actions and logical actions must be available in Nintex Process Platform to increase its capability. For us, Nintex Process Platform is configurable with SQL Server, but there is no configuration option available with Oracle. We also use Oracle in multiple processes, but we have found no way to directly configure Nintex Process Platform with Oracle. We have to use SQL Server in between. We have to create a link server within SQL Server as a bypass to retrieve or post data into Oracle. There were multiple improvement points available.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Company wide BPMS tool sustaining a long term quality management best practices to achieve the expected process maturity level but also cutting operation and maintenance costs related to the former tool in use"
"The product is easy to use."
"While this is a new product it has a mature feel from being built by a company with many years in the business."
"The central dictionary is a valuable feature."
"This is low-cost and very user friendly. A variety of models are available depending on the needs of the customer."
"I'm in awe of what the software can do."
"It can scale well."
"The value of this solution is that it's easy to maintain, and to further develop."
"It's easy to learn. However, there is very little content available for the Nintex also, but they are providing their own documentation and all. So, it's easy to learn also."
"Nintex Workflow is user-friendly and saves time"
"It is very easy to use events. K2 has useful tools."
"I think that it adds value to any organization, mainly in terms of business applications where you need workflows."
"It has helped us a lot, especially during the initial phase of a project where most of the things are done on paper."
"K2 is reasonably priced."
 

Cons

"One thing they could improve is the manual."
"The product needs improvement regarding the confidentiality of the domain information for the key administrator."
"There's an issue with the current manual that they're working on."
"The solution could improve its connectivity to other systems."
"As the product is very new, some minor features are still missing, but everything is there to handle day-to-day process modeling."
"There are just some things in the new product that are not really functional issues but improvements that BIC will have to make."
"The Workflow Designer needs improvement."
"Technical support is not so good, i.e., you should have a good contact inside the company, because the service desk is not that efficient."
"Difficult to include external partners with the solution deployed on-premise."
"At times, issues arise in certain scenarios. In such cases, the versioning can become quite difficult. There may be no other way but to restart the entire process or rectify it at that point."
"Currently, copying workflow actions from one workflow to another is not possible. Also, the Office 365 solution is not as mature as on-premise."
"The solution is heavy and cumbersome and it has a very stringent way of doing things."
"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."
"User interface could use some improvement. Perhaps integration with Visual Studio or SharePoint Designer would be useful."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Scalability-wise, it is an expensive product."
"Pricing will differ between enterprises based on needs such as customization, but the company uses a standardized algorithm for determining this."
"It's more suited for enterprise level, not for small or medium-sized businesses (SMBs)."
"The enterprise version has some additional features that I would like to use, but the price is not fair."
"The initial investment in K2 is heavy. Currently, the expenditure is $28,000 for a year. After we go to the cloud, it is going to be per seat and probably cheaper. Currently, there are unlimited users."
"The annual support costs are expensive."
"For the initial hundred users, the cost is $21,000 per year, which I find too high."
"The price of this solution is affordable but the problem in Algeria is our community is a bit slower. The new clients might feel the solution is a bit expensive."
"Offering a licensing model that allows for multiple small workflows would be a huge improvement to an already great platform."
"Nintex products are expensive, but valuable. Licensing in on-premise was historically based on a perpetual model, where you’d license per Web front-end. However, they are switching exclusively to a consumption (subscription) model, where you purchase the number of workflows you think you’ll use in your environment, and can scale up from there."
