About Nintex

Nintex was founded in 2006 in Australia and is now headquartered in Bellevue, Washington. The company builds software for process management and workflow automation, allowing organizations to map, manage, and automate business processes without extensive custom coding.

The Nintex Process Platform includes tools for process mapping, workflow automation, robotic process automation, document generation, e-signature, and low-code application development. The company has expanded through acquisitions, including Promapp (process mapping), EnableSoft (RPA, via Foxtrot), AssureSign (e-signature), and K2 (workflow and forms), broadening its offering beyond its origins as a workflow add-on for Microsoft SharePoint.

Nintex has operated under private equity ownership, with Thoma Bravo acquiring a majority stake in 2018. The company has gone through multiple leadership changes over the years and serves enterprise customers across industries including financial services, healthcare, and government, competing with vendors such as Pega, Appian, and Microsoft Power Automate.

Competitive Landscape

Who Nintex competes with, and how they differ.

Microsoft (Power Automate) logo
Microsoft (Power Automate)7.8/10

Power Automate ships bundled into Microsoft 365/Azure licensing, undercutting Nintex on cost for enterprises already on that stack, while Nintex sells a standalone, platform-agnostic workflow and process automation suite (it began as a SharePoint workflow add-on before decoupling from Microsoft).

A
Appian Corporation7.2/10

Appian centers on a single unified low-code app-development and case-management platform with its own data fabric, while Nintex assembles best-of-breed modules acquired since 2018 (K2 forms/workflow, Promapp process mapping, Foxtrot/Kryon RPA) under PE ownership.

Pegasystems Inc. logo
Pegasystems Inc.7.6/10

Pega pairs BPM with native CRM and AI-driven customer engagement, targeting large regulated enterprises like banking and insurance, whereas Nintex targets broader mid-market to enterprise process automation without a native CRM layer.

Camunda logo
Camunda7.3/10

Camunda is a developer-first, open-source BPMN process orchestration engine sold to technical/engineering teams, while Nintex sells a low-code, business-user-facing workflow, process-mapping, and RPA suite.

1 product reviewed on TopReviewed
UiPath logo
UiPath7.8/10

UiPath is a dedicated RPA and agentic-automation leader with a far larger bot deployment base, competing directly with the RPA layer Nintex added through its EnableSoft/Foxtrot (2019) and Kryon (2022) acquisitions rather than with Nintex's broader BPM/workflow platform.

ServiceNow logo
ServiceNow8.1/10

ServiceNow's Now Platform centers on IT service management, HR, and customer-service workflows within its own system of record, overlapping with Nintex at the edges of enterprise process automation rather than in document-centric BPM and process mapping.
