Appian Is an amazing Low-code development platform

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Appian is a powerful platform and allows us to undertake large projects with great complexities.
What do you dislike about the product?
Appian generally is a great platform but as with all technologies we use, we generally find areas of improvement the more we use it. However when we find these areas we communicate them to our contacts at Appian and they usually get resolved or added.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have created a great range of applications with Appian - from risk management, HR, learning trackers etc.

Appian is a best low-code automation platform where most of the business problems can be addressed

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The list of OOTB features provided to ease development work and gives enrichment to the business processes. The ability to include AI/ML/RPA has brought in a hyper-automation capability which reduces the manual errors in the business processes and increases the accuracy of the outcome. Overall the efficiency & productivity of the business increases. It also provides functionality to extend Appian by adding custom plug-ins to the platform(after a review by Appian)
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all products provide all the features which a user can wish for. Same way, Appian also has some restrictions on its OOTB functionality & some UX constraints. We have to write custom plug-ins/components for features that we need to bring into Appian.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a BPM tool, Appian has helped our organization in automating business processes starting from onboarding a user to handling the request from the user to each and every department within the organization. It has also provided features to extract reports on the user activity which helps in precise tracking of an user's/departments productivity/efficiency. One main problem that has been solved by Appian is maintaining the historical records with a specific set of security rules defined by the business - For example, my historical leave requests should be visible to me and my manager only.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for a short-time application release with guaranteed ROI, then Appian is the best fit for it.

Quality low-code development landscape

  • November 30, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Drag-and-drop process modeler is good and easy to use. There is automated task managemnt, and the platform overall offers an actual no-code experience. You can also separate it out and provision separate access for regular business users and more technical IT staff with individual processes that integrate together. This enables teams with distinct talent pools to work together on the same platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
Fairly expensive and not all the workflows are obviously intuitive. Thats not to take away from the the value though - you often get what you pay for and also they offer a free trial so no commit to buy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem is that not all of the folks on the application side have deep technical experience. Having a code free experience lends value, but you will need folks with the requisite knowqledge to be able to build the objects and enables integrations, etc. etc.

Built-in tips, context sensitive help and

Standard biz apps that don’t require fancy UI
Recommendations to others considering the product:
App Ian is great for business, time to produce working useful applications beats other tools, except perhaps Pega, but cost far less than Pega. Appian is committed to growth and encompassing DevOps and better UI tools, important fir protecting your investment.

Appian Tool Review

  • November 16, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's low-code and easy to develop. It's one of the smart tool to build applications quickly and helps address business problems fast. It's also easy to check and deploy to higher environments using Compare and Deploy feature withing the tool. If we are missing anything the deployment package, the tool will let us know immediately. It's easy to revert changes using versions. It's easy to build UI"s with lot of features and drag and drop options.
The processes will run fast and we can create many instances at once. Processes have lot of plugin options to help developers to do lot of stuff. If we need some feature which is not available OOTB then we can develop our own plug-in and deploy to server and use them in real-time. It's easy to monitor processes as well and manager security.
Easy to build reports for business needs.
It's easy to learn for any new developer with little or no programming language.
What do you dislike about the product?
Long running processes are not recommended.
Adds unwanted code lines when drag and drop is used.
Hard to debug with the generic errors Appian throws.
Deploying plug-in in cloud is difficult and time taking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We recently developed an app in Appian for health care customers to see the member info and all the cases and record the interaction activities and get the reports emailed to business people. Loading file and sending files/emails are all automated. In Java, they were expecting it to be completed in 6 months. I built it in 2 weeks using Appian and it's been used by customers from past 2 months without any defects. They liked it so much that they have asked to enhance the app with new features and continue using Appian.
