Have experienced challenges integrating with other systems but have benefited from improved process automation
There are multiple areas that need improvement. Nintex Process Platform needs integration with other platforms such as Salesforce and other CRM platforms. There should be actions available so we can directly integrate with these systems. Additionally, there is a gap in mathematical actions and logical actions. We need to parse data, and if we receive data in JSON, there is no action available in Nintex Process Platform to parse the data and extract data from that JSON string. Such actions and logical actions must be available in Nintex Process Platform to increase its capability. For us, Nintex Process Platform is configurable with SQL Server, but there is no configuration option available with Oracle. We also use Oracle in multiple processes, but we have found no way to directly configure Nintex Process Platform with Oracle. We have to use SQL Server in between. We have to create a link server within SQL Server as a bypass to retrieve or post data into Oracle. There were multiple improvement points available.

Automation has reduced manual finance work and has increased accuracy for high volume tasks
I am not sure if there is any disadvantage to UiPath Automation Cloud; I cannot say anything definitive. Sometimes when we upgrade our Studio version, there would be some issues when we use a new version, but I would not say there is a significant negative aspect. The latest issues with the new version involve glitches or latency that happen when we upgrade, and we face some issues that take time to fix. We have to open a new ticket and proceed through that process. As I heard, UiPath Automation Cloud is a little more expensive than other tools. I just heard this from other developer friends, but I have never used any other tools myself.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The support is great; I found the support to be excellent with immediate responses whenever I open a ticket."
"The Vizio-style designer that runs in the browser is, to me, by far the most valuable feature of the solution. It means that the customer doesn’t have to install any client tools to create powerful workflows."
"I like the feature of getting an email for a workflow error, then I do not have to go through every instance."
"K2 is reasonably priced."
"The customer service and support team are good, the premium support is good, and their response is fast."
"It saves time as tasks are automated."
"Allows us to provide desktop/laptop and mobile solutions to our users."
"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."
"Functionality wise, I do not have any complaint about UiPath Automation Cloud because for the last seven years, UiPath has been my bread and butter."
"When you use human resources, there is some chance people can make mistakes, but UiPath Automation Cloud robots cannot, as they are very fast and do their job correctly and efficiently."
"In general, the cloud migration has helped greatly, and overall UiPath Automation Cloud is a really good tool for enterprise-level automation."
 

Cons

"Nintex technical support is not great."
"Currently, it's taking quite some time to deploy a package, it needs improvement."
"There have been some glitches, and the workflow fails frequently."
"The licensing needs to be improved. Right now, we find it's getting more expensive to use the product."
"Because Microsoft announced that they will stop supporting Nintex Process Platform and Nintex Process Platform stopped supporting it as well, I will never recommend Nintex Process Platform Workflows or Forms in the near future, but Nintex K2 can be an option."
"The interface could be better and more language support is needed in the development environment or in the solutions platform in general."
"We'd like to have integration with SharePoint."
"Nintex is still at the starting point of integrating with AI. It has integrated with a very small piece of artificial intelligence., like only integrated with the Google Cloud. There is a benefit, like a no-code and low-code solution. But, again, if you are a developer, especially if you are a hardcore developer, you are using your code knowledge, its skills, and all. And, suddenly, you are moving into the low-code solution, and then you will feel, like, so many things you can't achieve with the low-code solution."
"UiPath Automation Cloud needs to reduce the license cost. That is the first thing they need to concentrate on because many RPA tools are coming up in the market and some are much cheaper than UiPath Automation Cloud."
"The main concerns are cost involvement and a new feature called ScreenPlay. ScreenPlay works based on the prompt that we are giving, but it consumes more artificial intelligence units."
"Sometimes when we upgrade our Studio version, there would be some issues when we use a new version, but I would not say there is a significant negative aspect."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The enterprise version has some additional features that I would like to use, but the price is not fair."
"There is an initial fee when purchasing and a fee for maintenance afterward."
"It's more suited for enterprise level, not for small or medium-sized businesses (SMBs)."
"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."
"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."
"Comparatively, it's expensive."
"The product’s price is competitive compared to other vendors."
"The price of this solution is affordable but the problem in Algeria is our community is a bit slower. The new clients might feel the solution is a bit expensive."
