What Dokuflex ships ready and Nintex does not

The difference is not the engine, it is the starting point. Dokuflex includes a library of 48+ complete processes —form, flow, rules, deadlines, roles and documents— that you activate in minutes and tailor afterwards. These are not sample diagrams or blank boards: they are processes that run, and they arrive with the regulation already solved (GDPR, NIS2, AI Act, whistleblowing, VERI*FACTU) and with local legal variants per country.

  • HR and people. Employee onboarding and offboarding, holidays, absence and leave, working-time records, internal training.
  • Compliance and ethics line. Whistleblowing channel (EU Directive 2019/1937), criminal-risk prevention, KYC and due diligence, AI Act system register, non-conformities and CAPA.
  • Data protection. GDPR data-subject requests within one month, records of processing activities, breach notification to the supervisory authority in 72 h, processor agreements, consent.
  • Finance and invoicing. B2B/B2G e-invoicing, accounts-payable approval, expenses and per-diems, contract lifecycle management (CLM), archiving with legal retention.
  • Procurement and suppliers. Purchase requisition and order, supplier qualification, supplier contract signing, food-supply contracts (AICA).
  • Safety and prevention. Occupational risk assessment, workplace accidents, NIS2/DORA incidents with the clock running, identity and access, ENS and ISO 27001.

10 preconfigured packs with local legal variants for 18 countries (EU, UK, CH and LATAM). Three modules —AI system register, ISO non-conformities and AICA food contracts— are free.
