It allows for business process data to be captured in a way that's usable and structured for not just business process automation, but business process improvement and optimization.
A recent improvement was a re-vamped configuration management function referred to as a "publish" feature and a completely new web 2.0 look and feel. The usability with version 8 is incredible. I would like to see more re-use through "modularization". By that I mean developing a more object-oriented view of things. Currently, everything reside on one platform. In order to implement an object-orientated environment, you would need multiple installs of the product, which is doable. But then you create multiple databases, so you have multiple administration. There's many benefits to doing that too. You might have a sandbox environment for one set of users that want rapid deployment. If you have a mission critical app, you might want a user-base to go through structured changes, change control stipulation management, and have more business insurance/disaster recovery/business continuity planning behind that. You can do that now, but I would like to see as the business grows and builds on the platform, that you could create objects and basically call out those objects for use.

The visual program provides the advantage of only requiring one skill set for both the front and backend
The solution is ground up, it follows exactly what the developer does. The product could be improved if there was a shortcut, or predefined, predictable templates provided. Infusing AI that would automate the process would be game-changing. On a logical level, if data on a form is automated, it would be great if when required, the developer can then go and look for it.
