We performed a comparison between IBM Case Foundation 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."The most valuable feature is its stability, which is why we are using it."
"The most valuable feature is the content manager part of the file as it is very stable, robust, and reliable."
"The content management is great."
"A valuable feature includes seamless integration with the document management system, along with robust capabilities in analytics and reporting."
"Flexible and the ability to divide search screens, and to search for documents. The ECM feature inside the system is great."
"It's very easy."
"The client and the IBM content navigation are the solution's most valuable features."
"The most valuable features are those involving decision making, analysis, and anything related to event documents because those processes are related to content as well."
"I think that it adds value to any organization, mainly in terms of business applications where you need workflows."
"K2 is reasonably priced."
"It has integration with BI and Analytics tools, and RPA toolsets as well."
"I think the initial setup is fine."
"It is very easy to use."
"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."
"The setup is easy."
"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."
"The place of improvement is merging or combining all of the workflow functionality into one seamless tool. Now, there are multiple installations that are different. Case Foundation, before you can put Case Manager and you've got IBM BPM, and the roadmap is there to merge them altogether. But that's the struggle at the moment, it's having multiple installations and disparate workflow applications."
"90% of the feedback we receive states that the UI is not very user-friendly."
"There are some features that could be enhanced like the document viewer"
"The service as it currently stands is out-of-date and lacks flexibility."
"There is a need for more open and flexible integration capabilities, allowing seamless collaboration with a broader spectrum of business process management solutions, beyond the confines of IBM's document management offerings."
"IBM needs to update the user interfaces of all its products to make them more intuitive and accessible to beginners. Compared to Microsoft products, IBM solutions are less user-friendly. IBM programs are hard to master. It's a problem in my region because it's hard to find IT staff who can work with IBM."
"The solution can be quite expensive."
"We are now using microservices but there are some areas where the coordination with FileNet is problematic."
"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."
"Converting a document from PDF to MS Word, or vice versa, needs to be improved."
"We cannot use the same solution on cloud."
"User interface could use some improvement. Perhaps integration with Visual Studio or SharePoint Designer would be useful."
"Unfortunately, Nintex Workflow is not that stable. We are looking at shifting to another tool."
"I would also like to see the BPM features from Pega implemented, that have to do with the implementation of AI, and the robotics."
"Currently, a notable challenge lies in the alignment of user experiences across the eight or nine applications within the suite. Transitioning between applications can be somewhat cumbersome due to varying user interfaces. However, the provider is actively addressing this concern by consistently rolling out updates every four to five months, aimed at harmonizing and streamlining the interfaces. This ongoing effort is expected to enhance the user experience over time. In terms of functionality and features, the platform stands out, offering flexibility with the option for both on-premises and cloud deployment. This flexibility extends to the RPA tool, providing clients with choices tailored to their preferences. An advantage lies in the shared security and data infrastructure across the toolset, facilitating smooth data transfer between applications. This contrasts with experiences with Oracle, where data transfer may involve complexities such as the need for intermediary file formats like TXL or SCZ."
"The interface could be better and more language support is needed in the development environment or in the solutions platform in general."
