We performed a comparison between AWS Step Functions 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."It is a scalable solution."
"It's a general solution that you can adapt to your own needs and is simple to use. We like that it can be integrated with everything in the AWS suite, and that the creation of the pipeline can be done using the graphical user interface."
"One can rate all the calls and that is a good feature."
"It's Amazon, it's scalable."
"The number of historical events is great."
"What I like the most about Amazon Step Functions is how easy it is to use."
"The solution is stable...The solution is easy to scale."
"AWS Step Functions acts as a high-level layer, allowing us to seamlessly integrate with microservices."
"I really like the visual representation. It actually looks like a flow chart, which is nicer than a SharePoint Designer workflow, which doesn't have that ability."
"It provides data accuracy with fewer failures."
"I think the initial setup is fine."
"The solution helped us automate several processes we used to do manually."
"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."
"It creates workflows to handle business processes. It allows us to route approvals to users without human intervention."
"The solution offers very good integration capabilities. We've never had issues integrating it without solutions."
"The integration capabilities have been very useful."
"The interface can sometimes feel limited, as we're unable to see what AWS is running behind the scenes."
"Setup took about one day. We had some errors to understand in the beginning, but now everything is working good."
"The price and support are areas with shortcomings where the solution needs to improve."
"It is hard to coordinate the declaratory language."
"The pricing of the solution can be improved."
"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 solution's data size limit can be improved."
"I would like to see more data transformation features in Amazon Step Functions like additional operators and logic."
"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."
"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."
"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 interface could be better and more language support is needed in the development environment or in the solutions platform in general."
"The license pricing is too high currently for Nintex Workflow."
"Built-in reporting on-prem is limited and clunky at best."
"It's very tedious to manage."
