Vitor Medeiros - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers capacity to integrate with external platforms but technically difficult
There is room for improvement in the user experience in the forms. When we need to develop the forms, we don't have much customization, and I think we need more flexibility there. It's technically difficult, but it would be great to be able to develop our own code and integrate it into the platform. We could then run our own code for specific actions and requests or even develop a page or form. So, if I can ask Nintex for something, it would be a way to integrate our own code for specific actions. When it comes to integration, it could have more options for custom requests.

An easy-to-use solution that supports multiple integrations
The product is really good, and it is easy to use. It comes with multiple integrations. The solution keeps up with the trend of Microsoft Copilot and AI. The tool's digital mailroom feature can handle documents from multiple sources. This includes incorporating documents from scanners, multifunctional devices, email attachments and various importers. Kofax TotalAgility's OCR capabilities process structured, semi-structured, and unstructured documents. Additionally, it supports both on-demand requests and batch scanning. The main feature I find exceptional about Kofax TotalAgility is its ease of use. While many business process management tools offer similar features, the solution stands out for its simple setup for KPIs and easy configuration of processes and forms. Additionally, it provides auto-generated forms. The solution was also easy to integrate with existing systems and workflows. The tool provides insights into document extraction and classification, including confidence percentages. The system can automatically proceed or route documents for validation based on these metrics. In HR systems, Kofax TotalAgility enables the creation of workflows for employee requests, such as leave approvals, based on predefined criteria like tenure or behavior. Similarly, KPIs can be integrated into customer care to monitor agent performance, tracking metrics like ticket volume and resolution times.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It's easy to configure your set of rules to make the form controls work perfectly, removing manual work and making processes seamless."
"The strength of this solution lies in its connectors and the accessibility of an open API. The presence of an open API allows users to create custom connectors if necessary, provided there is access to the source API documentation. Additionally, the platform features a straightforward yet highly effective forms tool. This tool not only seamlessly integrates with the workflow functionality but also facilitates the transmission of information to the document generation tool. This comprehensive integration is particularly noteworthy when compared to alternatives such as Oracle, which tends to rely on more complex and separate logic for similar functionalities. A key strength of Nintex lies in its user-centric approach to help documentation. The materials are designed to be easily understood, avoiding complex terminology. In cases where technical terms are used, they are linked to articles for further clarification. This contrasts with platforms like Microsoft and Oracle, which may employ technical jargon without clear explanations. Nintex further supports its users through a robust online community, fostering collaboration and shared insights. Additionally, Nintex University offers online training across all applications, following a role-based structure. Unlike some other platforms, Nintex's training is thoughtfully broken down into shorter courses, focused on specific roles. This approach ensures that users can efficiently access the information they need without navigating through extensive and potentially irrelevant content, as may be the case with Oracle's training structure."
"The technical support is very good."
"The solution offers very good integration capabilities. We've never had issues integrating it without solutions."
"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."
"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."
"The SharePoint feature is a really good connection, there are many features that are good."
"K2 is reasonably priced."
"What I find most valuable in Kofax TotalAgility is its OCR feature. I also find its workflow and business process management capabilities valuable. Kofax TotalAgility also has good integration with other solutions and has an API call feature."
"One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a great design tool for reading handwritten invoices."
"The product is really good, and it is easy to use. It comes with multiple integrations. The solution keeps up with the trend of Microsoft Copilot and AI."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a single package. They provide you with OCR capabilities, BPM capabilities, and case manager features."
"Data extraction and auto-classification are great features."
"The most valuable features of this solution are automation, ease of billing processes with the process net, and low to no code development."
"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."
 

Cons

"Hawkeye is emerging as a reporting solution, but as a V1 product it’s not very useful yet."
"The Workflow Designer needs improvement."
"Currently, copying workflow actions from one workflow to another is not possible. Also, the Office 365 solution is not as mature as on-premise."
"The tool lacks to offer support for the Arabic language, and it needs consideration."
"Converting a document from PDF to MS Word, or vice versa, needs to be improved."
"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, it's taking quite some time to deploy a package, it needs improvement"
"Nintex seems to be very server intensive. It is one of the reasons that we are moving to a different product on the SharePoint 2016 platform."
"There needs to be more accessible certification and better pricing."
"Kofax should improve its handwritten extractions."
"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."
"It’s not truly low code yet, as every two or three projects, you will have a situation where you have to go behind the essential things. You will definitely still need to customize."
"It would be nice if the tool has more connectors to different systems. It is an expensive solution."
"They provide sufficient but not excellent technical support. Perhaps there is a point where they could use some improvement."
"Sometimes there isn't enough accuracy when it comes to extracts."
"Kofax TotalAgility could improve the OTR engine. The page OTR engine is not accurate in predicting the data properly. If you provide many features which are good for business process management without an accurate OTR engine people will not want it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Certainly. Notably, in terms of cost, this solution presents a substantial advantage, being approximately forty percent more economical compared to Oracle. It offers flexibility with two deployment options, catering to both cloud and on-premises preferences. Moreover, within each deployment option, there are two variations available. For organizations with limited IT resources and relying on citizen developers—individuals from the business side comfortable with technology—the platform allows for a more hands-on approach. These users can independently implement solutions without extensive coding or custom development. In contrast, the KQ solution at Symantec is adept at addressing the needs of sectors like banking, where extensive custom development is required for seamless integration with existing applications, websites, and ensuring robust security measures."
"This solution is affordable and is cheaper than most alternatives on the market. We have a standard cloud license that costs about 20k per year."
"Offering a licensing model that allows for multiple small workflows would be a huge improvement to an already great platform."
"Nintex Workflow is more expensive than Microsoft's native products, but it is still considered moderately priced when compared to higher-end products such as K2."
"Comparatively, it's expensive."
"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."
"Prices for licenses of K2 are high."
"The enterprise version has some additional features that I would like to use, but the price is not fair."
"The licensing cost for Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive, though I'm unable to give you the range, the sales representatives of my company say that the product is quite expensive."
"Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive."
"It is slightly more expensive than other tools."
"The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."
"It has a perpetual license. You pay once in a lifetime for the volume of scans you will do and the number of users you will have. You can have participants or regular users, and you can have developers and administrators. So, once you purchase it, it is for a lifetime, and then every year, you have to pay for the maintenance. There is an annual maintenance cost, which is about 18% of the licensing cost."
