Featured Reviews

Ahmed-Ragab - PeerSpot reviewer
Facilitates task management with effective approval processes and modern integration capabilities
It facilitates processes by sending notifications to relevant individuals who need to take action regarding requests. There is a very good approval hierarchy in place. Ivanti Automation significantly simplifies IT infrastructure processes, handling access requests and facilitating various employee requests. It is also easy to integrate with many other tools, like Nintex and Azure DevOps, using APIs.
Vitor Medeiros - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers capacity to integrate with external platforms but technically difficult
There is room for improvement in the user experience in the forms. When we need to develop the forms, we don't have much customization, and I think we need more flexibility there. It's technically difficult, but it would be great to be able to develop our own code and integrate it into the platform. We could then run our own code for specific actions and requests or even develop a page or form. So, if I can ask Nintex for something, it would be a way to integrate our own code for specific actions. When it comes to integration, it could have more options for custom requests.

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Ivanti Automation is the opportunity to use more or less any kind of scripting software."
"There is a very good approval hierarchy in place."
"Ivanti Automation significantly simplifies IT infrastructure processes, handling access requests and facilitating various employee requests."
"It's easy for the IT admins at the company to use. It isn't hard to understand and there are lots of features you can use out of the box. If a feature isn't available in Ivanti Automation, you can always script it."
"I think the initial setup is fine."
"I find it useful to utilize LDAP query action to find out the status of a particular user."
"It is very easy to create and deploy. I am very happy with how user-friendly Nintex Workflow is."
"K2 is reasonably priced."
"It creates workflows to handle business processes. It allows us to route approvals to users without human intervention."
"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."
"It has integration with BI and Analytics tools, and RPA toolsets as well."
"This tool set makes it easy to integrate current processes and increase adoption rates and usage for the tool, as well as the process changes to update it on the fly."
 

Cons

"Ivanti Automation should deliver more fixed templates for standard use cases or standard procedures."
"The user interface could be more futuristic and modernized in terms of styling and colors."
"Their cloud relay feature needs to improve to compete with other products in cloud solutions like Azure and AWS. It should be easier to deploy or provision images in the cloud with Ivanti Automation. Better Azure integration would also help."
"The user interface could be more futuristic and modernized in terms of styling and colors."
"The solution is a bit too expensive. It could be cheaper."
"The licensing needs to be improved. Right now, we find it's getting more expensive to use the product."
"User interface could use some improvement. Perhaps integration with Visual Studio or SharePoint Designer would be useful."
"Heavy, cumbersome and inflexible."
"Converting a document from PDF to MS Word, or vice versa, needs to be improved."
"The security features for this solution need to be improved."
"The product’s support for the mobile platform and its ability to handle artificial loads could be better."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My customers do direct sales with Ivanti, and they complain that Ivanti Automation is more expensive than other solutions."
"Nintex Workflow is more expensive than Microsoft's native products, but it is still considered moderately priced when compared to higher-end products such as K2."
"We pay on a yearly basis. It's my understanding that we pay approximately $11,000/year."
"The product’s price is competitive compared to other vendors."
"Our maintenance costs are reduced."
"Nintex is around INR 200 per license in India, which is much cheaper. Smaller organizations are always looking for cost-effective solutions, and Nintex provides local solutions with very low pricing."
"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."
"Comparatively, it's expensive."
"It's more suited for enterprise level, not for small or medium-sized businesses (SMBs)."
