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."We appreciate the drag and drop functionality and the easy to access plug and play features."
"Appian helps you do a lot of things. It's easy to configure and build an application platform, and it offers a lot of features that you find in an RPA solution. It's flexible so you can reuse it for a variety of use cases."
"Since implementing we have had a faster time to solution, with fewer resources needed."
"Write to Data Store Entity - Saving data in SQL databases is done easily using entities. Entities (CDTs in Appian terminology) define relationships and target schema tables via XSD files."
"The tech support is quite good."
"In terms of interface, it's very good. In terms of infrastructure, it's amazing and already using multiple tools behind the scenes. It's a low-code platform, so it's very easy to implement."
"The setup is easy."
"Form building capabilities and well thought out process modelling are key points to this product."
"Out of box connectivity with UiPath."
"It can scale well."
"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 has integration with BI and Analytics tools, and RPA toolsets as well."
"It saves time as tasks are automated."
"It's easy to learn. However, there is very little content available for the Nintex also, but they are providing their own documentation and all. So, it's easy to learn also."
"It has helped us a lot, especially during the initial phase of a project where most of the things are done on paper."
"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 tool itself is pretty good, but the main area that we struggled with was the backend. The frontend development is really good, but the backend modeling can be streamlined a little bit. There are good integrations, but tying them through the data layer and then up into the frontend could be improved a little bit. It does read/write on the data source, and you can configure it to just write or just read, but there is a little bit of work involved."
"I would like to see more complete university tools. For example, with UiPath, I have had a good experience related to a free course in order to provide some users some different levels of knowledge. This extra training helps users not only use the solution but to develop further within the tool."
"What could be improved is more on the front end perspective, like the user interface and the mobile application aspect."
"The performance is pretty good, but the distortions need to be optimized in order for it to work well."
"It is difficult to set up the on-premise version."
"If we could calculate the amount of data that will be realized, it would help us a lot."
"Architecture of product and scalabiility issues."
"My only request is that they decrease the license costs."
"Currently, it's taking quite some time to deploy a package, it needs improvement"
"The product’s support for the mobile platform and its ability to handle artificial loads could be better."
"K2's support for DevOp team corporations is weak."
"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."
"The licensing needs to be improved. Right now, we find it's getting more expensive to use the product."
"The solution needs more RPA and AI features."
"Unfortunately, Nintex Workflow is not that stable. We are looking at shifting to another tool."
"The security features for this solution need to be improved."
