We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It can scale well.""Allows us to provide desktop/laptop and mobile solutions to our users.""The workflow engine of K2 is its main strength. Its workflow engine is probably one of the best, and that's the reason why Nintex bought K2. It can clearly handle any complex process or scenario. K2 is almost low-code. It is a no-code or low-code solution. You don't have to read a whole lot of code. It is pretty much GUI based. Their support is also excellent. The biggest advantage of K2 is SmartObjects, which allow you to separate the data from the application. It is a standalone application that allows you to build a data source from different places, which a lot of other applications also do. It is called SmartObjects technology, which is pretty powerful. If I have data from different applications, such as JD and ServiceNow, I can just create a SmartObject based on a data source and use it. I have some forms that have six, seven, or eight applications in a single form with data from different places.""Allows to use workflow for simple approvals and LazyApproval. The feature is easy to implement for mobile approval.""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.""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 is very easy to use.""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."

"Documentum is a highly scalable document management solution because it's built on a solid platform.""The product is tamper-proof and enables us to return to the document source, which is helpful in legal issues.""The storage of metadata content, workflows, and life cycles are the most valuable features of OpenText Documentum.""The most valuable feature is the management.""The tool's most valuable feature is ACL, which helps to control the user groups that access the documents.""The most valuable feature is that the documents are kept secure.""The most valuable feature of Documentum for our content management needs is its ability to segregate access based on department and role.""We like Documentum for its capacity and reliability."

Cons
"Currently, it's taking quite some time to deploy a package, it needs improvement""We are currently facing a lot of issues with Nintex, and we are trying to move away from this solution.""Heavy, cumbersome and inflexible.""Unfortunately, Nintex Workflow is not that stable. We are looking at shifting to another tool.""Hawkeye is emerging as a reporting solution, but as a V1 product it’s not very useful yet.""The interface could be better and more language support is needed in the development environment or in the solutions platform in general.""It's very tedious to manage.""I think it was lacking a little bit in its multiple in-house processes and other processes. So there is a little bit of a gap in collaboration."

"The user interface can be a bit more intuitive.""OpenText Documentum has a lot of scope for improvement in terms of adding some AI integrations.""The main issue is the software's performance when storing around 10 million or more documents. It becomes slow and needs improvement. Perhaps it's a cloud-related issue, but it needs to be addressed. It could be due to our S3 bucket or something else. Nevertheless, this is a significant challenge we're facing.""The vertical application could be improved.""I would like to see performance improvements, especially regarding slow response times.""OpenText Documentum needs to improve its support.""It should provide more tools to help clients upgrade solutions based on Webtop.""In BPM could be better. Its GUI needs the ability to build more rules. This is a crucial feature. For example, OpenText has some products that allow you to control your checks, invoices, and so on. They have exciting approaches to converting pictures to text, but the tool for business process management isn't easy to use. The GIU is not so good."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Nintex products are expensive, but valuable. Licensing in on-premise was historically based on a perpetual model, where you’d license per Web front-end. However, they are switching exclusively to a consumption (subscription) model, where you purchase the number of workflows you think you’ll use in your environment, and can scale up from there."
  • "Offering a licensing model that allows for multiple small workflows would be a huge improvement to an already great platform."
  • "Our maintenance costs are reduced."
  • "The annual support costs are expensive."
  • "Comparatively, it's expensive."
  • "We pay on a yearly basis. It's my understanding that we pay approximately $11,000/year."
  • "The initial investment in K2 is heavy. Currently, the expenditure is $28,000 for a year. After we go to the cloud, it is going to be per seat and probably cheaper. Currently, there are unlimited users."
  • "There is an initial fee when purchasing and a fee for maintenance afterward."

  • "It is quite an expensive product."

  • "OpenText Documentum has announced a new licensing model, which could be more expensive."
  • "OpenText Documentum's pricing is good."
  • "The price is considered affordable now."
