Nintex puts the power to improve work in the hands of the people who best understand their processes. From newcomers to seasoned workflow professionals, everyone can benefit from Nintex’s workflow automation platform. As a platform, it delivers the work to you effortlessly on your part instead of making you learn yet one more system or doing mundane tasks on your computer.

The platform does well integrating your workflows with the social media, instant messaging programs, content, email and applications you already use, with a seamless and practical integration of all of your data and documents. In addition, it also offers an easy drag-and-drop workflow design that saves valuable IT staff time. It focuses on being easy (reducing steps) rather than by being simple (reducing choices). It’s how our platform is powerful enough for elaborate enterprise work but approachable enough for everyday departmental work at the same time.

You will be able start up and run it quickly, and to build multiple workflows faster than any other solution out there. Existing customers see a fast return on investment and are eager to find new processes that can benefit from automation as workflow solutions based on the platform help save time and money that they can devote to their most critical projects. What is even more important is that Nintex is priced on quote basis, and allows users to design their own feature suite for a price that would genuinely suit their financial capacity. Contact the company for more details, and ask for your quote.

What to expect in a SharePoint workflow solution

Nintex Workflow for SharePoint includes the capabilities you expect in a leading business process automation solution.

  • Schedule and time workflows to create repeatable processes
  • Delegate workflow tasks to users, directly or scheduled
  • Deliver workflow notifications via email, instant messenger (IM) and text
  • Annotate or print process diagrams

Custom SharePoint workflows

  • Customize SharePoint workflows to meet your specific business requirements and process needs.
  • Build and save User Defined Actions to hide the technical complexity and keep workflows clean and clear.

Lazy Approval for those who don’t have time

The Lazy Approval function allows employees to approve or reject requests directly from any location via notification emails, response to a Lync conversation or automated server message.

Avoid process stalls with state machines

With state machines, workflow processes jump between different levels of business logic in a way that's easy to understand and maintain. This means that you can avoid delays in your SharePoint processes by setting up synchronous approvals – common with processes such as employee on-boarding and document approval. Request denied in the workflow? Kick back processes to a previous level of approval in the workflow.

Automatically update critical documents

Make automated decisions and share information based on the content of critical documents and spreadsheets such as contract, financial reports or publications. Automatically update the documents and apply quality control processes before sharing them externally.

Integrate workflows with the other business systems you use

Nintex Workflow for SharePoint can integrate directly with your back-end systems, such as accounting or CRM system and data repositories. Leverage our built-in Web Service actions, integration to SharePoint’s Business Connectivity Services, Custom actions and external start to tie workflows back to crucial back-end systems.

  • Nintex Connectors
  • Assign tasks and schedule appointments
  • Communicate tasks and appointments with Microsoft Exchange integration features.

For example, send meeting invites that automatically populate users’ Outlook calendars or assign tasks that flow through to users’ Outlook task lists.

Use workflows to create user accounts and assign permissions

Minimize the burden on IT by creating Active Directory and SharePoint user accounts as they are requested and approved by managers, department heads and other stakeholders and assign the appropriate network permissions.
