Look at the renewal
What sits behind the Process Manager agreement
Separate the software package from the work: keeping procedures current, owners accountable and improvements moving. Start with your actual quote.
A package around your procedures
Nintex separates Process Manager into Essentials, Professional, Expert and Enterprise packages. Your quote depends on the package and scope.
Room for people and processes
Its licensing help describes usage limits and extra capacity. Check the capacity in your actual agreement before comparing your annual bill.
A place to document the work
Process Manager holds process documentation. Your own version keeps the procedure, responsible roles and review record together.
Ownership and improvement feedback
Nintex includes ownership and feedback tools. In your version, owners and unresolved improvements are records you can combine in a weekly review.
Views of process health
Nintex provides dashboards and reports. Your version answers questions across review dates, proposed changes and the improvement backlog you keep.
An ongoing software agreement
The vendor asks you to discuss pricing. Compare your renewal quote with the work your team needs, then scope a system you own.

Ten questions to ask your process records
These checks run on the demonstration records today. Your version can combine your own fields and review rules. Similar reporting may also be available in Nintex.
Switching
How to switch from Nintex Process Manager
A move usually involves exporting your Process List, mapping and testing the register import, then checking records and separately mapping the history and content you choose to bring.
- 1
Export your Process List
Export the Process List from Nintex Process Manager as a CSV if your account allows it. If you cannot find that export, check with Nintex and use the export options available to your account. Review the exported headings before moving on. The import can preserve the original fields, but heading differences may need mapping.
- 2
Test and load the register
Run a test import before loading the records. The free version can bring in the Process List CSV as draft register records and preserve its original fields. Check the test results and any heading mappings, then load the records once you are satisfied with what will come across. The import does not bring procedure content, attachments, permissions or approval history across automatically.
- 3
Review what the import reports
Check everything the test import reports, including records or fields that need attention. Compare a sample of the draft records with the Nintex export and confirm that important details have landed in the right places. Resolve mapping issues before relying on the new register. Treat procedure content, attachments, permissions and approval history as separate items to map and reconcile.
- 4
Run both systems briefly
Keep Nintex Process Manager available while your owners check the imported register against the records they use. Confirm that key processes, owners and other important fields are present, and complete the separate mapping and reconciliation you need for procedure content and history. Use this short period to resolve discrepancies and agree that the new register is ready to use.
- 5
Switch off Nintex Process Manager
Once your owners have checked the register and resolved the outstanding migration work, agree when the new system becomes the one you use. Confirm that required procedure content, attachments, permissions and approval history have been handled as needed. Do not switch off Nintex Process Manager based on the register import alone. Close or end your Nintex service when your team is ready to stop using it.
Where the real effort goes
The main work is usually mapping your own fields and rules, then deciding how much procedure content and history to bring across. The Process List import gives you draft register records, but procedure content, attachments, permissions and approval history need separate mapping and reconciliation. If you have Enterprise DNA install and run it for you, Enterprise DNA does this migration work with you.

Questions
Instead of Nintex Process Manager, answered
What does the free version cover? expand_more
A process register, procedure revisions, owner reviews, improvement actions and version-specific acknowledgements. It also produces branded procedure sheets and internal review briefs. The code is free under an MIT licence. Hosting and agent use have separate costs.
Can we bring our Nintex records across? expand_more
Yes. The free version imports the Process List export as draft register records and preserves the original fields. Check the exported headings and do a test run first. Procedure content, attachments, permissions and approval history need separate mapping. Enterprise DNA can scope and complete that migration with you.
How do we compare the cost with Nintex? expand_more
Use your renewal quote. Nintex currently directs pricing enquiries to sales, and its licensing help describes packages with different features and limits. We scope your version around the work you need, for one setup fee and then a retainer.
Can our team have a screen or phone access? expand_more
Yes. Enterprise DNA can build a web front end, mobile capture and agreed connections around your records. We scope those needs with the migration so your operators get the access and working methods they need.
Does an approval prove the procedure is compliant? expand_more
No. The checks flag missing or due evidence for an owner to assess. Approval records and acknowledgement references do not prove safety, legal compliance or competence. Your responsible people still review the procedure and its supporting evidence.
