Low resource consumption, easy setup, and stable
To determine whether a platform, such as Appian, is suitable for your domain industry, you must first assess whether it offers any out-of-the-box features relevant to your needs. If it does, utilizing that platform would be the best option since it already has the required functionalities. If the available features do not align with your requirements, consider choosing a platform that can easily build such services. Attempting to modify pre-existing features on a platform is a challenging task, and any upgrades to the platform could pose further issues for users. The solution has high performance but the main issue is the lack of customization after deploying it. I rate Appian an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The Application Designer is very user friendly. There are also lot of plug-ins that you can use and, for the most part, they are free."
"Appian's most valuable features are the quick time it takes to develop for the market. It's easy and faster than other BPM solutions."
"The agile manner that we require to create our workflows. This is probably the most critical part of our solution and the time it takes to start processing the solution."
"The solution has a lot of strong features for the financial industry, it is very easy to use."
"It has very flexible adaptation and the ability to save and automate processes."
"Even with an on-premise implementation, the scalability is still high, so it is easy to scale up."
"Recently, we added Appian Process Mining, Appian Portals, and now Appian RPA."
"Compared to other code tools that I've seen, Appian has a more robust rules engine"
"We contact their customer support often. They are very good and reliable."
 

Cons

"There are four areas I believe Appian could improve in. The first is a seamless contact center integration. Appian does not have a contact center feature. The second is advanced features in RPA. The third would be chatbot and email bot integration—while Appian comes with chatbot and email bot, it's not as mature as it should be, compared to the competition. The fourth area would be next best action, since there is not much of this sort of feature in Appian. These are all features which competitors' products have, and in a mature manner, whereas Appian lacks on these four areas. I see customers who are moving from Appian to Pega because these features are not in Appian."
"The product’s pricing could be improved from the developers' perspective."
"It has it's own built-in UI components and doesn't provide much flexibility to customize or extend those components."
"We would like to have more granular control for interface styling."
"It needs better integration with our existing application ecosystem."
"The graphical user interface could be easier to use. It should be simplified."
"There could be a scope of enhancement for capturing the variety of use cases."
"Authoring tool is slow to use resulted in limitations on how quickly solutions can be built."
"There are better solutions on the market. To make it a perfect ten, they should improve the price. There is a learning curve and sometimes there are issues from the software."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think that if somebody is really serious at looking at business value, then by all means, the product is well worth the value. You get representative business value for the price that you pay for the product, and for the implementation of the product."
"It's good value for the price."
"It is expensive, but powerful. I would recommend comparing against cheaper licensing products and open source."
"It's an enterprise tool and can be used by enterprise only. So it's a very expensive tool."
"The cost depends on the number of users, although I recommend taking an unlimited license."
"I'm sure it is cost-effective, but right now, we're just toying around with it. So, I don't have any hard numbers."
"BPM done right is a huge value proposition for almost any company, and with Appian's low code rapid development model, the ROI can be huge, while the break-even point should be accelerated tremendously."
"You can't really test the software properly without actually buying the license first."
