In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, companies are increasingly adopting application development to remove friction from their critical business processes. With a large pipeline of applications designed to drive competitive differentiation, application development teams must tackle these projects quickly and effectively. However, these organizations face a dilemma from an application development approach perspective:Build custom-coded solutions and navigate long development cycles; or Settle for low-code solutions that fail to fully meet their needs for automating complex business processes.The result?A high percentage of projects fail to deliver the intended value because they lack the capability to handle intricate use cases. Equally damaging is the heavy reliance on professional coders or complex tooling, which often limits the number of projects that can be delivered—further exacerbated by project overruns that slow progress even more.With the launch of Nintex Apps, we are clos

IntroductionThis blog highlights AI's transformative impact on RPA, showcasing how integrating AI technologies enhances the capabilities and effectiveness of traditional RPA systems. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has revolutionized business processes by automating repetitive, rule-based tasks, improving efficiency, and reducing costs. However, traditional RPA is limited by its reliance on structured inputs and predefined logic. Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration is transforming RPA into a more powerful, adaptive, and intelligent tool, heralding a new generation of automation capabilities. The evolution from traditional RPA to AI-enhanced RPATraditionally, RPA focused on automating straightforward, mundane tasks like data entry, invoice processing, and simple transactional processes. These bots mimic human actions by interacting with software applications to execute tasks across various systems. The limitations of this approach lie in its dependence on structured data and the i

In today’s fast-paced business environment, the ability to streamline operations and enhance efficiency is more crucial than ever. At Nintex, we understand the importance of continuous innovation to empower our users with the best tools for optimizing their business processes. We are thrilled to announce a game-changing feature that seamlessly bridges the gap between traditional process mapping and modern process automation: The ability to import Microsoft Visio files and create BPMN process models directly within Nintex.   Elevating Process Mapping to New Heights Microsoft Visio has long been a staple for professionals across various industries to diagram complex processes and systems. However, transforming these static diagrams into consistent, managed, documentation can often be challenging and time-consuming. Recognizing this gap, our team at Nintex embarked on a mission to create a bridge between Visio’s process diagrams and Nintex’s robust process management capabilities.   Intro

Built-in data storage capabilities streamline building workflows in Nintex Automation Cloud We are thrilled to announce the beta release of Nintex Automation Cloud Tables, providing a centralized, scalable way to store, manage, and connect process-related data across business-critical applications. Capabilities covered in this blog will be added to the product over the approximately two-month-long beta release period.Workflow automations frequently rely on data from multiple sources, such as customers, employees, or internal storage systems like SharePoint, to successfully execute. Managing data stored in multiple locations can be fragmented, onerous, and error-prone for application developers building custom business applications, who want all aspects of their apps centrally accessible and managed.When app developers build apps leveraging workflows, forms, and data in a single, self-contained platform, designs are streamlined and simplified leading to accelerated development times and

As the Product team continues its acceleration on updates to Nintex Workflow Cloud, the magnitude of these releases has been amplified. This post may seem like an aftershock to the announcement last month around the Advanced Preview of Complex Object support in Nintex Xtensions, but don't fault me on the timing. I cant stress enough how excited I am about this new groundbreaking feature! Ok, you're probably wondering what's with all the puns, and if you weren't before, now it's probably shaking out. Complex Object support has been on the minds of most users building Xtensions since we released the Nintex Xtensions framework several years ago. With this 'earth shaking' release, and my love for puns, what better way to celebrate than building an Xtension with Seismic (API for reference). If you are just here for the Seismic Xtension, you can download it from the Nintex Process Accelerator Gallery, and if you'd rather just watch me walk through this configuration, please check out the vid
