Innovative product that can transform your workplace

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy-to-learn and easy-to-use for both developers and end users. The interface is slick and powerful. Both the Appian product and the implementation team have been an excellent fit for our organization. The product is robust enough to handle mission-critical membership tracking for our 500,000 members, while flexible enough to also provide internal leave tracking for several hundred employees. Appian issues quarterly product updates that we can schedule with their Cloud team at our convenience. The Cloud team team makes the upgrade process completely painless.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Tempo interface and social features are a waste for our organization. Thankfully the big focus in recent releases has been on the much more user-friendly Sites interface. Excel and Word templates are not easy to use and need more official support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We utilize Appian in all parts of our organization. Our primary use case is for our mission-critical membership tracking system that also includes a major batch file processing component. We have leveraged their RPA capabilities to handle routine tasks and free up employee time for more valuable tasks. We have also used Intelligent Document Processing to organize a legacy document dumping ground into a powerful and searchable tool. We even built our internal employee portal and leave tracking solutions in Appian.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Partner with either Appian or a 3rd party on your initial project to learn the ropes, even if you plan on going in house later. Leverage the cloud offering if possible. Start with some quick-hit applications that show value before moving on to a large scale project.

Appian - platform with great community

  • August 05, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Appian has wide offering of online trainings and active community. Variety of application on App market is astonishing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Implementaiton of simple workflows with very simple integration requires still hundreds of MDs.
I do not like the marketing as "low-code" or "no-code" platform as this creates expectation within the senior management that implementaiton will require few MDs which is far from reality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Support of back-office processes/workflows. We have mainly better control over the wokflow, proper reporting and increased efficiency
