Rivet Nuts

I am primarily looking into rivet nuts for their quick installation into tube, however after going through other threads I have found vague, mixed reviews on them. Do teams that use them find that they tend to slip? Are there recommended ways or types(knurled, locking, hex) to install them to make sure that they don't slip. Are PEM nuts and weld nuts better?
