Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."There is no need to worry about vulnerabilities in the system, because Appian built a secure system."
"The most valuable feature is business automation."
"Good workflow engines that bridge the gaps of processes."
"Write to Data Store Entity - Saving data in SQL databases is done easily using entities. Entities (CDTs in Appian terminology) define relationships and target schema tables via XSD files."
"Even with an on-premise implementation, the scalability is still high, so it is easy to scale up."
"The solution's most valuable features are the regular periodic and quarterly updates, they are very useful updates. They keep improving the solution more often, and that helps the platform or code always be up to date with the latest features."
"The tech support is quite good."
"It has very flexible adaptation and the ability to save and automate processes."
"Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding."
"It's not so complex to design what you need to."
"Data extraction and auto-classification are great features."
"The product is really good, and it is easy to use. It comes with multiple integrations. The solution keeps up with the trend of Microsoft Copilot and AI."
"One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document."
"The most valuable features of this solution are automation, ease of billing processes with the process net, and low to no code development."
"Now it has an OCR, optical character recognition, engine where it can extract data from the document."
"It is user-friendly and has good documentation. It's good for developing communication and has a lot of the APIs needed for this purpose. There aren't a lot of software options available from this time period; this is the only one from 2013 that has this concept of microservices."
"The reporting is not as good as in similar products. They could also improve the dashboards."
"The biggest areas of improvement would be in facilitating team development, DevOps, and integration with typical tools used in enterprise development (Jenkins, Subversion, etc.)"
"The ability of the interface to load automatic data is not great."
"Appian could improve their customer-facing initiatives."
"The performance is pretty good, but the distortions need to be optimized in order for it to work well."
"It would be nice if you could create your own customized apps when the business needed them."
"The graphical user interface could be easier to use. It should be simplified."
"A point of improvement would be the SAIL forms. The built-in tool used to generate forms does not have debugging support (to view local variables as they change on live preview, and step-by-step valuation) which is a big drawback for form development. Moreover, the script language used to build SAIL forms does not support inheritance or lambda expressions (functions as arguments of other functions), which makes the code base more verbose."
"Kofax TotalAgility could improve the OTR engine. The page OTR engine is not accurate in predicting the data properly. If you provide many features which are good for business process management without an accurate OTR engine people will not want it."
"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."
"Kofax should improve its handwritten extractions."
"The Transformation Designer of KTA can be made better."
"It’s not truly low code yet, as every two or three projects, you will have a situation where you have to go behind the essential things. You will definitely still need to customize."
"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."
"It would be nice if the tool has more connectors to different systems. It is an expensive solution."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."
