Positive Spin
Simple, reliable automation for core workflows with an easy setup and essential triggers.
Reasoning
The majority of sources describe Nutshell's workflow automation as limited or not highly capable for complex workflows. SalesRobot and PCMag/Cmga reflect low/limited capabilities, and Salesdorado explicitly notes limitations for highly customized workflows and being less capable than Salesforce for complex processes. While a few sources mention full customization, those claims are outweighed by the stronger, higher-confidence signals indicating limited automation, leading to a consensus classification of 'limited'.
