Nintex Overview
Nintex is a user-friendly workflow automation platform that enables businesses to automate their processes quickly. The platform offers workflows, a drag-and-drop interface, and real-time analytics. The Nintex Automation Cloud Services allow users to leverage data-driven insights to optimize processes. The Nintex pricing plan starts with a base rate but is fully customizable based on the customer’s needs.
