Low-Code Development
Comparison of Low-Code Development features of Product A and Product B
Appian is well suited for the areas which involve a workflow. For Example: Consider there is a task and 3 teams are required to work on the task, with Appian we can create tasks for each team and monitor the comments and completion. Together with the integration capabilities, this tool can function in many areas. In our firm, we are using it to automate the workflows for our business teams and help them in capturing the OLA's and SLA's.
The scenarios where ARIS Process Mining is well suited are actually quite niche. I can say if you're a big, old organization with a lot of hierarchy and bureaucracy and this causes the information within the organization to disseminate and reaching the correct units take time, therefore inefficiency, then it's surely worth investing in ARIS Process Mining tool. These are the exact problems ARIS offers to solve. But if at least some of these terms I mentioned do not apply to your organization, whether it's small or does not suffer these symptoms despite being big, you can still use it for its various reporting and mining tool to improve, however the most suitable scenario is as I explained above.
Allows at a glance workflow documentation which assists in the need we have for information readiation.
Drag and drop interface for workflow development greatly speeds our apps time to market.
Using the advanced features of Appian, we are able to create working sites in a fraction of the time it would take to do so using "traditional" development.
Search issues when type ahead and database search are used in the same field.
Buttons implementation where user is require[d] to click on the button description - if clicks on the button outside that text - button will not work.
Problems with using certain off-the-shelf performance tools like WebLoad or Neoload. That is because of different dynamic variables being used internally in Appian - which these tools are unable to correlate. We are still investigating using other tools like Jmeter to overcome dynamic correlation problem for performance testing.
We recently renewed our license with Appian. We are convinced that its flexibility, relative ease of use, the support they provide, there mobile advancements and their general willingness and desire to see us succeed all contributed to our reason to renew our agreement with Appian
There are many differences between using Appian and using other programming languages. Additionally, there are many trade offs that have to be made and that have to be accepted for using Appian. In some cases, you give up control of one small area, but in others, it may open settings that are unavailable to a developer when using other program languages.
Appian is one of the leading low code business automation platforms that support RPA, decision rules, case management, workflow automation, and machine learning all in a single bundle. But it is also harder to implement and replace the traditional business process.
We worked with a vendor who supported us and have been able to resolve any problems/questions we came across so we did not even need to go to ARIS Process Mining support/developer team to resolve issues.
As analyst I participated in a developer boot camp. At times it was hard to keep up but most of the time it made sense. Trainer took the time to explain and slowed pace down to answer questions etc.
Appian compares favorably with other vendors in the space. It is strongest with business workflow automation and to create custom business applications. The tool base for coding is extremely straightforward and allows for faster coding and deployment. Handles very complex process flows and has the ability to discover new opportunities for automation.
I have not heard of any better such software that you can use to both map the processes, report them and mine them to see bottlenecks to improve. There are many software platforms that you can draw and map processes but such advanced library, mapping, reporting and mining tools to achieve the optimal process flow does not exist as far as I know.
Our IT automated procurement process has sped up time to get paid by a few days on every transaction
Our approvals are more organized as a result of being put in digitally
Managing our own tenant requires more than we have available, given the quarterly updates
Since we have business-critical functions running in the platform, we have to thoroughly review every note of every update. Because of this we skip half of the updates since we don't have enough time to review these changes four times a year.
