Nintex SharePoint Online Approval Process not supporting Lazy approval process

Team,


SharePoint Online Migration Check List

Currently I am involving in a major SharePoint Migration project from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint online.

Most of the existing Business process contains (workflow) approval process in different levels.   Such as approval from Manager,admin and finally service desk.  But in Nintex SharePoint online version won't support the Lazy approval fully.

Means You can't get the Approver name and Approver Comments. If you used a AD group in approval process, the task list will be updated with Group name and Modified Name  will be updated with "Sharepoint APP"  You can't get the Approver name and comments.

Nintex keep on telling some workaround, but in real time we are not able to achieve it

Before buying the Nintex tool please consider this factor for migration.

You can get the Approver name and comments using office 365 flow.

hope the above information useful to you. if you like please share your comments.

If you find any other alternative please share.

Thanks
Devarajan SM (Deva)

Few updates of sharepoint 2019:

SharePoint Hub Sites: New Intranet Building Tool

The Redmond, Wash.-based company also announced it will release SharePoint hub sites next year, with an expected roll out to Office 365 First Release customers in the first half of 2018.

SharePoint hub sites are a new intranet-building element that will bring together related sites under a unified look and feel with shared navigation. 

“The digital workplace is dynamic and ever changing. Business goals and team structures evolve and change — often frequently,” Mark Kashman, senior product manager on the SharePoint team wrote in a blog about the new release.

“SharePoint helps your organization adapt, by connecting your workplace with intelligent content management and intranets that give you the tools to share and work together, and to inform and engage people across the organization. And now it gets easier to organize your intranet dynamically.”

What stands out amongst the new functionality included in hub sites is the ability it gives intranet managers to combine multiple team sites and communication sites in one place to create an intranet that reflects the way enterprises work.

Even better, Microsoft designed the new hubs with mobile devices in mind. The SharePoint mobile app will be updated to natively render hub sites, and their pages, news and content, as well as providing smooth navigation between associated sites.
