Compare AgilePoint NX with other popular tools in the same category.
Low-code platform: AgilePoint NX provides a visual interface for creating and deploying applications, making it easier for non-technical users to get involved in the development process. Integration: AgilePoint NX can be easily integrated with other systems, such as CRM, ERP and legacy systems, providing a seamless flow of information across the organization.
Like any technology, AgilePoint NX also has some limitations and potential drawbacks, including: Steep Learning Curve: The platform has many features and capabilities, and it can take some time for users to understand and utilize all of its capabilities thoroughly. High Cost: AgilePoint NX can be more expensive than other low-code platforms, making it less accessible for smaller organizations or businesses with limited budgets.
Complex Business Processes: AgilePoint NX helps organizations automate complex business processes, reducing manual labor and improving efficiency. This enables organizations to streamline their operations and reduce the time and effort required to complete tasks.
AgilePoint NX is extraordinarily intuitive to use with a low learning curve compared to the other BMP solutions I have used in the past while simultaneously enabling flexibility, allowing you the process to address both common and complex use case scenarios.
Outside of your employer giving you access to AgilePoint NX or requesting a limited trial, it can be challenging for a single business power user or citizen developer to gain access to maintain, hone or expand their learning for an extended period. It would be great if AgilePoint provided a no-cost developer environment or a reasonably priced one for single developer users. Long term, I can only see an upside to this as such citizen developers would take this with them throughout their careers.
While an employee at Honeywell, I used AgilePoint NX as an enabler to automate many Direct and Indirect Procurement processes. Most use cases were centric on exceptions processes that were not accounted for within either our ERP systems or other IT-managed platforms, which necessitated the rapid development of tools that could fill these critical gaps. Some of these were: - Payment Term Exceptions: A process that enabled a hierarchical approval process with embedded business logic to realize deviations to payment term business objectives with 3rd party suppliers. - Waivers of Competitive Bids: A process that enabled exceptions to Honeywell's competitive bid policy. Likewise, this process supported a hierarchical approval process with embedded business logic and an SAP R/3 BAPI, allowing the process via web service API to only allow purchase requisition processing into a purchase order within the ERP after gaining proper business approvals within the process.
Some of the features our teams reported liking the best have been: - AgilePoint provides automation when we were told automation was not available - Friendly collaboration across sites - Ease of use - Excellent customer and project support - Plug and play low code solutions
There is not a whole lot I dislike about the application. Would like to move to a newer version soon!
Some problems we are solving with AgilePoint is the ability to simplify workflows and eliminate manual activity. This sounds like a no-brainer, however the benefits are allowing users to better allocate their time to more projects that add value.
easy to integrate other systems by using WebAPI
The eForm wizard cannot meet the complexity needs of the enterprise
as a flow engine on our new e-form system
The low-code/no-code model allows you to create workflows as quickly as you need to, but there enough connectors and activities to allow for more complex models as well. I really like the Management console that allows insight and control over all active workflows and tasks.
Some of the more advanced workflow activities are not as intuitive as they could be and the documentation does not always offer a good example of how they could be used, but the support team is always very helpful in sorting out questions.
We have created electronic versions of multiple approval processes that supplement our ERP system, both decreasing time to approval and eliminating the paper trail. We have also improved KPI reporting through simple metric-collection forms tied to a short approval.
Web-based, easy integration and management
Windows-based conditions for setting up.
Overall process and business management
Easy to use user interface to allow our personnel to focus on solving problems rather than learning how to use it. Using AgilePoint, we are able to digitalize and automate our daily processes without hiring software developers to build custom solutions. It even supports mobile user interface. This minimized knowledge gaps, reduced turnaround time which translates to better productivity.
AgilePoint is straightforward for simple workflows, however it lacks community support for custom development on AgilePoint. I wish there are better community support for software developers to use AgilePoint
Process automation - to reduce paper forms and centralize our processes to avoid content silos. It reduced average process turnaround from 2 business days to 6 hours.
Flexible eForm and ready functions for SharePoint or O365 integration. Document and video tutorial accessible easily.
Not discovered yet. The system is up to our expectation.
Capital Expenditure Requisition.
Easy to configure, low code, not difficult to build complex workflow
Nothing, because almost all of our clients' needs can be solved
Complex Workflow can be set up easily with AgilePoint NX configuration
We've used AgilePoint to build forms and workflows across many departments in my organization. The tool is perfectly capable of making simple conversions from paper to digital but, with a little outside the box thinking, also flexible enough to handle more complex workflows as well.
The tool is meant to handle workflows that are completed within a relatively quick amount of time. If you have a workflow item that must sit idle for a period of time, things can get complicated. We've often had to break these workflows up into two separate forms: the first creates the task and closes it (where it can idle), the second will retrieve and 'pick-up' the idle task to complete the next part of the workflow when appropriate.
We've converted many paper-based forms to digital ones with approval workflows. We've also used new forms and workflows to engage users in ways previously not possible, such as through their mobile devices.
The integrations with other systems and being able to have one database update another
Really not much, I would like the user community to be a little bit larger or have more trainings that are more in depth than a introduction.
Systems and people communication. Data tracking has been a big benefit.
Low to no Code development that allows employees to be citizen developers and solve their own problems. It is always very hard for IT to come in and try to develop something that they do not understand. Low code allows people who are not that IT inclined to set it up.
The appearance can be improved to be similar to other high end low to no code providers. In addition, adding tutorials based on general use concepts will be very helpful to end users.
Back office workflows We have been able to create tools that make our emails go down and help us get to root cause much faster.
AgilePoint NX enabled me to automate business processes at a much lower cost than tools like Appian or Pega. AgilePoint's pre-built connectors to SharePoint, SalesForce, and other mission critical applications allowed us to quickly integrate and significantly reduce cycle times. AgilePoint's low code platform enabled business analysts to define and build the business process in a more efficient, iterative approach that enabled user feedback within days.
I don't think there was anything that I disliked and they were always receptive to product enhancement requests.
Automating business processes in: Human Resources for hiring process. Finance for accounts payables. Operations for new account onboarding, Legal for outside counsel cost analysis and reporting Marketing for Collateral Review.
We love the versatility available with AgilePoint, the variety of controls, the ability to connect easily to databases, SharePoint, and file systems.
While your support area is comprehensive technically real world examples are sorely lacking. There are times, for example, when I would like to know what is the best control to use for a specific purpose. If it wasn't for one particular user on the forums, I would be lost.
Creating electronic workflows to replace burdensome systems relying on paper.
Allow workflow to be defined by business users themselves, it enables IT to focus more on technical aspect.
Lacking of connector to SAP ECC6 and Salesforce.
To automate business process and operations that involves multiple parties and normally cross companies in different regions.
It is very easy to use with its intuitive interface and drag and drop functionality
Lack of Community support where you can leverage to speed up your development and learning curve
We have used Agilepoint to build an application which can automatically generate different versions of legal documents by inputting the different requirements and parameters
Ensure the efficient workflow integrated with other software, and simplified users' life.
Life-cycle of the software is not very much clear.
quickly achieve the business processes with workflow.
Easy to learn tool to apply basic workflow solutions and the various features that allows integration with other products with minimal settings. Furthermore, as it is on cloud, AgilePoint has eliminate our concern on server related issues and allow us to focus on building the application. Also loving the support team who always there to back us up with any issues related to the product.
Slow loading time as it relies on our browser/PC performance and internet connection during development.
Automate manual business transactions without the need to create solutions from scratch because of the low-code development features and also allows integration with minimal settings. AgilePoint has also allow me to learn that there's other products that can integrate with it (other than those that I'm using now) that I believe will help me in future when the opportunity comes.
easy to create individual apps easy to edit workflow easy to integration with another application easy to maintenance when change approval multi device design multi platform and also web based so easy to access have mobile apps so we can get direct push notification when need approval can deployed into cloud environment low code development We can just drag and drop your actions onto the space, copy and paste pre-existing actions, drag them around to change the order, etc. great support
for the price a bit expensive although have great function need enhancement for approval by email so can have more UI Errors can be cryptic at times. and it can takes some legwork to hunt down what went wrong and how to fix it, but I have yet to run into anything that is unique
we have multiple application that need integrated approval because management want easy to do approval no need to open each application with AgilePoint we can get that function without any problem Our Management also happy because we also create individual form internal AgilePoint so we can use for internal development apps also no need invest another application so we have single system maintenance With a lot user system need handle also their individual delegation when they on leave or changes of each PIC approval With low code development make user and IT easier to understand user also can do maintenance by them self
AgilePoint solution is a "what you see is what you get" application, and it is easy to model the processes with the business.
It's better if provide a free online training / built up a developer community
Streamline our customers' internal process and visualize the process during the implementation stage
The ease of use and the helpful support they offer.
They’re still a young company and their community development could be improved
Light weight BPM and RPA type work
AgilePoint NX is low to no code platform and it's backwards compatible with upgrading to a new version. Implementing any BPMS can be a challenge especially with non-developers but AgilePoint makes it easy with developing low code Workflow Solutions. They also have a Pages Portal where you can customize any application with it's own HTML, Javascript, Css portal. This is great for tailoring a solution into 1 portal.
When developing workflows sometimes you need to extend or go outside of the framework. AgilePoint supports Javascript but the IDE to the Javascript implementation is small and not robust. I wish it came with it's own Javascript Advanced Editor window. Also debugging what you did is hard or impossible with Chrome debugger. Maybe build in some debugging or logging inside the IDE for you.
Always a need to replace an aging .net application or build a quick workflow solution from a paper process. AgilePoint is great with either scenario in my workplace. 40 hours of development in AgilePoint will get you a full blow Workflow that's manageable and scaleable.
Easy to use, easy to program, very well done API
Integration with Sharepoint improved by adding more features
Digitize business processes. Short development time and unified task management platform
What excites me most about this product is the fact that there are ready and flexible controllers that allow you to execute business processes in a good and fast manner. In addition the responsiveness of the system is very high and this is its most prominent advantage
The ability to make a DEBUG to the system is almost impossible and makes it not always possible to detect faults.
In our organization many processes were realized by using paper sheets and the system made this use unnecessary. In addition, processes flow faster.
AgilePoint is excellent for designing app resources and further enhancing them as we proceed with business process improvements in our project activities. Noteworthy features which I feel as best are app integrations, app development with custom templates and case management for transactions. We also utilize its pre-built connectors to establish seamless connectivity with other applications without the need of writing complex codes.
Its documentation is limited to technical blogs & community forums and in order to build complex workflows, it requires extensive hands-on experience with AgilePoint. The remaining features offered by AgilePoint are suitable for developing customer-centric applications without coding experience.
AgilePoint makes it all easy to work with Azure Service Bus (ASB) integration process for our order processing & customer transaction workflows. We have built the application in such a way that we obtain clarification notifications whenever a user initiates get clarity request for their orders. Its queues store all user requests until we accept & process them. Tracking of these requests is also convenient as the orders come with a timestamp upon arrival. Finally, we proceed with moving them to our report view for data export to our business mail accounts.
ノンコーディングでもワークフローのアプリ開発が可能で、様々なプラットフォームと連携が取れるところ。
一般ユーザーにとってワークセンターの画面が複雑で操作が難しいところ。タブやボタンの名称が(日本語だと)少しわかりづらいと感じる。
他プラットフォームのシステムともデータ連携を行い、社内の承認フローをAgilePointで実現した。
It has a lot of features and functions built in within the tool, and there is the ability to create really light weight applications to help business needs. The application build process is based on No Lo concept, so users don't really need to code anything.
The interface could be a little more user friendly which a non IT user could use easily. The IT community finds it easy to work with the tool, but the business users don't find it too easy / user friendly to work with. Also, the availability of help / training material needs to be improved. Once again thinking about new users who need to learn how to use the tool the training materials will help.
We've let go of our legacy, home grown solutions and migrated those to AgilePoint hence helping us get better from a security and vulnerability stand point. AgilePoint is now being used by many SBGs to automate their processes and to integrate with SharePoint both in the cloud and On Premise to help run business processes.
AgilePoint allows developer can easily build workflow application for a simple flow we spent 1-2 hr to build also support mobile device. It is provided integration that will be used for data or parameter.
User interface is not look nice we need to spent effort modify style sheet.
the past project system has many approval condition Agilepoint is flexible configure.
Easy for building up the basic workflow products. It will empower the Business Users as most the tools like Process Builder, Form Builder are all intuitive. I like mostly becuase it integrates with any 3rd party systems. They support all kinds of infrastructures such as Public Cloud, Private Cloud, On Premise Single Tenant, and On Premise Multi-Tenant. It has a rich integrations with SharePoint, SalesForce, Active Directory, Net Suite, SQL, and lot of other systems. I like Form Builder the most as you can inject custom Javascript to customize the forms and controls the way you like. Lookups make your life easier to intergrate with other systems. The File Upload control is truly very powerful as you can just click and configure to configure any repository like Box, Google Drive, Physical Drive, SharePoint, SalesForce, One Drive, Dropbox etc., The platform is always flexible as you can write WCF, REST and Web Services to integrate with other systems.
There are not many but few. The product is still maturing and there are bugs here and there but the abundant features outweigh the cons. Sometimes, you may face times when you are overdoing the forms and then you realize your design is wrong. So, build the forms carefully because redoing the forms will take more time.
I work as a computer analyst. So I work with customers taking their process requriements and converting it to the software solution using AgilePoint BPM. You can save whole lot of time using AgilePoint in contrast to coding with ASP.Net or with other web coding technologies.
