Appian is the unified platform for change. It accelerates customers’ businesses by discovering, designing, and automating their most important processes.
The Appian Low-Code Platform combines the key capabilities needed to get work done faster, Process Mining + Workflow + Automation, in a unified low-code platform. Industry leaders trust Appian's open, enterprise-grade technology.
What is Appian?
Appian is the process automation platform that thousands of the world's most innovative companies rely on to accelerate business processes. Its award winning platform empowers organizations to discover and design end-to-end processes that seamlessly connect with existing applications and infrastructure, as well as automate mission-critical tasks at the click of a button.
How Does It Work?
The Appian Platform empowers business analysts to configure end-to-end business processes without code using an intuitive visual interface which mimics a spreadsheet or form. Processes can be modeled from point-and-click graphical diagrams in a fraction of the time it takes to create them using traditional development tools. Once designed, the processes are deployed to Appian's customizable cloud environment for execution across the organization's existing systems and infrastructure. Apps built on the Appian Platform can automatically orchestrate the execution of workflow processes in response to events, such as the arrival of a new document in a folder, or the clicking of a button on a web form.
