Leave Nintex. Keep the workflow.
Nintex bundles RPA, workflow, forms, and process mapping into stepped tiers. Most teams use a slice of it. We rebuild your botflows and workflows on tooling you own — no bundle, no per-bot fee.

Why teams leave Nintex
The four reasons we hear most often.
Reason 01
Bundled-suite tier creep
RPA (ex-Foxtrot), Workflow Cloud, Forms, and Process Discovery are sold as a stepped suite. You climb tiers to unlock the one feature you actually need.
Reason 02
Per-bot RPA pricing
Nintex RPA bots are licensed per bot on top of the workflow platform. Scaling automations scales the bill.
Reason 03
Two products stitched together
The RPA (Foxtrot) and workflow lineages still feel bolted together. Cross-product automations require gluing — and paying for — both.
Reason 04
Closed botflow format
Botflows live in Nintex's editor. Exporting them as portable, version-controlled artifacts is awkward by design.
The math
What Nintex actually costs.
Public list pricing plus the add-ons most teams end up buying. Implementation and admin overhead extra.
| Line item | Cost |
|---|---|
Nintex RPA bot | $3,000 / bot / yr |
Workflow / Automation Cloud tier | $$ stepped |
Forms / Process Discovery add-ons | $$ extra |
Implementation | $$ partner-led |
| Real all-in | ~$6,500 effective per bot / yr, all-in |
What we migrate
Every record.
Every field.
Specifically, from Nintex RPA. Nothing is left behind to "migrate later."
- Nintex RPA botflows (ex-Foxtrot)
- Workflow Cloud / process workflows
- Nintex Forms
- Connectors and integration logic
- Document generation (DocGen) templates
- Process maps (Promapp) as documentation
- Schedules, triggers, and approvals
Our recommendation
Replace Nintex with n8n (open source).
n8n (self-hosted) replaces the workflow-and-connector half cleanly — visual builder, webhooks, 400+ integrations, code steps, no per-bot fee. The RPA botflows we rebuild with Playwright/rpaframework where UI automation is genuinely needed. Forms become simple owned web forms; DocGen becomes a templating step. One owned stack instead of a stitched suite.
Not the right fit?
We also build fully bespoke automations, deploy Robot Framework / n8n / Temporal to other estates, and integrate with whatever you're keeping. The audit covers the choice.
