5 ways Appian Stokes Innovation:

  1. Complex workflows can be modeled in Business Process Modeling Notation and executed instantly.

  2. Integrations to external systems come out-of-the-box.

  3. Designers can create responsive, omni-channel User Interfaces without knowing web or mobile programming languages.

  4. Multiple developers can coordinate on a single project, using Appian's built-in security tools, versioning, and collaboration interface. Appian's process engine takes care of routing tasks, notifying the right people, and collecting metrics.

  5. Finally, everything you build on Appian's Low-Code Platform magically works on mobile too.
