We performed a comparison between Nintex Process Platform and OpenText 360 for SharePoint 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."NWC forms could be better. Also, the ability to build workflows that are not dependent on SharePoint is very desirable. The forms feature just isn’t as functional as the forms for SharePoint."
"This solution is very easy to use and customize, using almost zero coding. It's built on SharePoint which many companies in our country have experience with. This made it easy to adapt the application in our environment."
"Only Nintex has the feature which allows attachments to an email."
"It provides data accuracy with fewer failures."
"It's easy to configure your set of rules to make the form controls work perfectly, removing manual work and making processes seamless."
"Valuable features include workflows (escalation, reminder, LazyApproval, actions, etc.) and ease of use."
"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."
"Easily maintained and customization is quite simple."
"This solution has good connection and we do not need to migrate everything in order to protect the repository."
"It has a lot of flexibility, and Microsoft does come up with some new additions from time to time."
"The collaborative environment for long-term archival or record management is great."
"The fact that you can see and create something that fits your business is the most valuable thing in this platform. It is a customizable product, so it fits your needs."
"The product has a strong and easy integration with Teams."
"In terms of its most valuable features, this solution, in general, will provide all you need and it's very convenient to use. We can share our details to collaborative platforms. We can give access to users. It's pretty flexible."
"It's all now on cloud subscription, so you can use all the features without worrying about making the system updates patches."
"The fact that it allows for the internal sharing of information is very good."
"There have been some glitches, and the workflow fails frequently."
"User interface could use some improvement. Perhaps integration with Visual Studio or SharePoint Designer would be useful."
"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."
"Difficult to include external partners with the solution deployed on-premise."
"Hawkeye is emerging as a reporting solution, but as a V1 product it’s not very useful yet."
"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."
"K2 is a workflow solution, and there is no RPA solution with K2. This is where K2 lacks a little bit. It is just a heavy workflow solution. It doesn't have a supplemental product like RPA. If you want to use RPA, you have to use Blue Prism, UIPath, or something else. If you use Nintex, it has an RPA solution. It is a form-based application, and they are doing everything electronically. The initial investment in K2 is heavy because it is a BPM software. It does not have a low cost because they charge you the same for one workflow or 100 workflows."
"Heavy, cumbersome and inflexible."
"Integration is an area where the solution lacks."
"They are not going for any add-ons right now. It's the same version we are still using and there is no plan of upgrading and/or creating any add-ons at all."
"If I have to really create an internal knowledge management portal, if I have to compare SharePoint and WordPress, WordPress is far, far better in regard to the SharePoint option."
"They need to come with more out of the box solutions, rather than depending on customers to develop them."
"The user interface could definitely be improved."
"We have a very good time to market tool, and the development platform should be made user-friendly. Mostly, it's just support."
"Its licensing needs to be simplified. Currently, its licensing is very complex. It contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify the licensing and make it easier to understand. It would make a customer's life easier."
"An area for improvement would be how the platform handles large volumes of documents. It also doesn't provide a very good, robust backup and restore capacity. In the next release, I would like the search technology to be improved."
