"K2's best feature is that it can solve complex tasks, issues, and projects with little coding."
"I find it useful to utilize LDAP query action to find out the status of a particular user."
"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."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that it's no code, it's very flexible, and it's easy to design."
"The solution has helped us to automate our business processes, our approval systems, and automation for quickly developing on SharePoint on-prem and SharePoint online."

"It is hard to coordinate the declaratory language."
"Setup took about one day. We had some errors to understand in the beginning, but now everything is working good."
"It wasn't easy to understand the licensing model. It's like if you use just a little, it's cheap, but it becomes more expensive as you use more. It's like a hook that ties you inside the Amazon ecosystem. So, it creates a dependency."
"The interface can sometimes feel limited, as we're unable to see what AWS is running behind the scenes."
"I would like to see more data transformation features in Amazon Step Functions like additional operators and logic."
"The solution's data size limit can be improved."

"We would like to have access to an on-premises solution. In our country, we have a relationship with Central Bank of Egypt, which do noes not allow cloud solutions to be used. They should offer an on-prem solution with a flexible price license."
"Hawkeye is emerging as a reporting solution, but as a V1 product it’s not very useful yet."
"Bring all features available from the on-premise product into the cloud version and the workflow error reporting."
"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 Workflow Designer needs improvement."
"It is very flexible because you can design your own main forms, but if there were some templates according to your market, it would be more useful for a new customer. That would make K2 more user friendly and easier to use."
"The license pricing is too high currently for Nintex Workflow."
