"The process models provide self-documenting systems."
"Technical support is helpful."
"It's a stable product."
"It has created executable requirements and speeds up the SDLC process greatly."
"Process culture is making noise inside the organization because now, everybody knows that their time is being monitored."
"I find the BPM the most valuable feature."
"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."
"It has helped us a lot, especially during the initial phase of a project where most of the things are done on paper."
"It has integration with BI and Analytics tools, and RPA toolsets as well."
"The technical support is very good."
"It has a lot of features for creating and managing workflows, as well as for integrating with other applications. Nintex offers features, particularly to ensure a user-friendly experience."
"The latest version of Nintex has many features. We have a clear roadmap and the necessary application to integrate it into our platform."
"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."
"Form creation and SAIL proprietary language still basically require programming. The claim a BA type can do everything is hogwash."
"The graphical user interface could be easier to use. It should be simplified."
"What could be improved is more on the front end perspective, like the user interface and the mobile application aspect."
"There are some restrictions with respect to using external components within Appian. So, for example, if we do not have a particular feature available, there's a long cycle of getting approvals and all of that. That does not offer flexibility, which definitely can be improved on."
"Occasionally, certain pre-made modules may not be necessary and customers may desire greater customization options. Instead of being limited to pre-designed features, they may prefer a more flexible version that allows for greater customization."
"Appian could improve their customer-facing initiatives."
"Native mobile capabilities or hybrid mobile app capabilities are very limited. Things like offline sync, offline storage, access to smartphone device features, etc. are not supported by the Appian platform yet."
"Architecture of product and scalabiility issues."
"Nintex seems to be very server intensive. It is one of the reasons that we are moving to a different product on the SharePoint 2016 platform."
"The interface could be better and more language support is needed in the development environment or in the solutions platform in general."
"We would like to design parallel workflows and long-running workflows, along with new features for connecting to cloud-based systems."
"Bring all features available from the on-premise product into the cloud version and the workflow error reporting."
"I would also like to see the BPM features from Pega implemented, that have to do with the implementation of AI, and the robotics."
"We cannot use the same solution on cloud."
"The cost of the solution is high and has room for improvement."
"We'd like to have integration with SharePoint."
