We performed a comparison between IBM BPM and Nintex Process Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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.
"With the tester coach wherein you can interact with the interface while you're designing the process."
"The process creation."
"IBM BPM is equipped with all the functionalities which are needed for building BPM enterprise-level applications."
"The solution offers great notifications."
"We made the transformation to agile. Altogether with BPM, it is the total package."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to customize your rules and put them inside the tool."
"Enabled us to convert most of the paper-based work into an automated workflow process, and some of them were converted into straight-through processing, with no human interaction involved whatsoever."
"One of the reasons for adopting this solution ten years ago was its ease of use. It had a lot of off-the-shelf functionality, and it did not need to be developed specifically for the project that we were implementing. That was the main reason for adopting it in the beginning."
"It's easy to configure your set of rules to make the form controls work perfectly, removing manual work and making processes seamless."
"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."
"The setup is easy."
"This solution is very easy to use and customize, using almost zero coding. It's built on SharePoint which many companies in our country have experience with. This made it easy to adapt the application in our environment."
"The solution offers very good integration capabilities. We've never had issues integrating it without solutions."
"I like the feature of getting an email for a workflow error, then I do not have to go through every instance."
"The Vizio-style designer that runs in the browser is, to me, by far the most valuable feature of the solution. It means that the customer doesn’t have to install any client tools to create powerful workflows."
"It is very easy to use events. K2 has useful tools."
"We care about technology and support because support is very important and a BPM is not easy to implement."
"Performance on large scale requirements could also be improved."
"I would say the scalability is very good but it's not perfect. It is much more scalable than it has been in the past but... it does require some work to keep it stable. So that is an area that should be improved."
"The engine itself tends to accumulate a lot of data that needs to be cleaned up, and that's the kind of thing that keeps it from, in some scenarios, scaling as much as it needs to. And then, when you're building solutions, if you're not careful to keep the screens from being associated with too much data, if you're going to just do things the way that a lot of people would just assume that they can do, without having experience of having made those mistakes before, it will accumulate a lot of data, and that will cause it to perform very badly."
"Initial setup is very complex. Too many steps need to be done at the database and server levels, and complex configurations. From what I see, a lot of these steps can be and should be automated."
"The user experience, while it has improved, should continue to improve."
"The initial setup was complex."
"There is a lot of room for improvement of the dashboards."
"Bring all features available from the on-premise product into the cloud version and the workflow error reporting."
"I think it was lacking a little bit in its multiple in-house processes and other processes. So there is a little bit of a gap in collaboration."
"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."
"The cost of the solution is high and has room for improvement."
"The Workflow Designer needs improvement."
"K2's support for DevOp team corporations is weak."
"I would also like to see the BPM features from Pega implemented, that have to do with the implementation of AI, and the robotics."
"Hawkeye is emerging as a reporting solution, but as a V1 product it’s not very useful yet."
