We performed a comparison between Appian and Nintex Process Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Even with an on-premise implementation, the scalability is still high, so it is easy to scale up."
"Appian has many valuable features, the first being the ease of development—rapid development. Second, the process of learning the product and tool is faster when compared to its peers in the market. It's closer to low-code, and while it's still not very easy, it's more low-code than other products in the industry. Appian has a good user interface, a seamless model user interface, which comes without additional coding. It can also integrate with multiple systems."
"I find the BPM the most valuable feature."
"The process models provide self-documenting systems."
"It provides us with real-time data on all connected systems in terms of how they're integrated with each other and how they are performing in a workflow manner."
"The setup is easy."
"There is no need to worry about vulnerabilities in the system, because Appian built a secure system."
"Low code development: Code can be developed pretty quickly which leads to less turnaround time for automation of business processes."
"This tool is really helpful in reducing a lot of manual work. Its drag and drop components help to create a workflow faster than SharePoint Workflow Designer."
"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."
"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."
"K2's best feature is that it can solve complex tasks, issues, and projects with little coding."
"Out of box connectivity with UiPath."
"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."
"Easily maintained and customization is quite simple."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that it's no code, it's very flexible, and it's easy to design."
"There could be a scope of enhancement for capturing the variety of use cases."
"The solution could use some more tutorials to help brand new users figure out how to use the product effectively."
"Something I would like to see improved is an SQL database connection."
"There should be more flexibility for the developers to choose the look and feel of the UI. They should have a better ability to design their widgets and customize them with different colors, shapes, and sizes. That is a limitation that could be improved upon."
"Form creation and SAIL proprietary language still basically require programming. The claim a BA type can do everything is hogwash."
"If that had more DevOps capabilities, it would be an excellent product."
"There is no UI customization possible."
"It has it's own built-in UI components and doesn't provide much flexibility to customize or extend those components."
"The solution is a bit too expensive. It could be cheaper."
"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."
"Currently, copying workflow actions from one workflow to another is not possible. Also, the Office 365 solution is not as mature as on-premise."
"We are currently facing a lot of issues with Nintex, and we are trying to move away from this solution."
"We'd like to have integration with SharePoint."
"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."
"The tool lacks to offer support for the Arabic language, and it needs consideration."
"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."
