Straightforward interface and user-friendly
There are a lot of apps in K2, but what I really found that needs improvement is the management section of K2, especially the management server and the admin page where you can manage processes, add users, set security fees, and add licenses. The reason for this is because the part that is the section of administration, particularly the management called rows, has multiple rules, as many as you want. For instance, you may have around 200 rules, and when you view them, only the first ten are displayed, and you have to click next to see the next ten and so on until you get to the hundredth rule. On that page, as of today, we only have what we call to fetch, where you can search for a particular rule you're looking for, or else you have to keep clicking until you get to the final page you want. So that's a bit challenging.

Works as a reference for architecture but not very intuitive
We use the solution as a reference for architecture so that we can connect business data applications. The tool helps us to know how these applications should be built. We use it mainly as reference material.  I like the solution's traceability.  The solution is not easy and intuitive to use. I…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support provided by Nintex is very helpful."
"The solution helped us automate several processes we used to do manually."
"It's easy to configure your set of rules to make the form controls work perfectly, removing manual work and making processes seamless."
"The latest version of Nintex has many features. We have a clear roadmap and the necessary application to integrate it into our platform."
"I think that it adds value to any organization, mainly in terms of business applications where you need workflows."
"It saves time as tasks are automated."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that it's no code, it's very flexible, and it's easy to design."
"It provides data accuracy with fewer failures."
"I like the solution's traceability."
 

Cons

"Nintex is still at the starting point of integrating with AI. It has integrated with a very small piece of artificial intelligence., like only integrated with the Google Cloud. There is a benefit, like a no-code and low-code solution. But, again, if you are a developer, especially if you are a hardcore developer, you are using your code knowledge, its skills, and all. And, suddenly, you are moving into the low-code solution, and then you will feel, like, so many things you can't achieve with the low-code solution."
"The solution needs more RPA and AI features."
"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."
"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 management server and the admin page where you can manage processes need improvement."
"The product’s support for the mobile platform and its ability to handle artificial loads could be better."
"Currently, it's taking quite some time to deploy a package, it needs improvement"
"The cost of the solution is high and has room for improvement."
"The solution is not easy and intuitive to use. I would also like the software to have a reference metamodel that can guide the modeling."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an initial fee when purchasing and a fee for maintenance afterward."
"Prices for licenses of K2 are high."
"The product’s price is competitive compared to other vendors."
"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."
"Certainly. Notably, in terms of cost, this solution presents a substantial advantage, being approximately forty percent more economical compared to Oracle. It offers flexibility with two deployment options, catering to both cloud and on-premises preferences. Moreover, within each deployment option, there are two variations available. For organizations with limited IT resources and relying on citizen developers—individuals from the business side comfortable with technology—the platform allows for a more hands-on approach. These users can independently implement solutions without extensive coding or custom development. In contrast, the KQ solution at Symantec is adept at addressing the needs of sectors like banking, where extensive custom development is required for seamless integration with existing applications, websites, and ensuring robust security measures."
"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."
"The enterprise version has some additional features that I would like to use, but the price is not fair."
"Offering a licensing model that allows for multiple small workflows would be a huge improvement to an already great platform."
"I would rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten since it's pretty expensive."
