"Appian leads the pack with the best overall combination of modeling, design and development."

- Forrester Research BPM Wave 2010

"I was impressed with the way Appian has hidden a huge amount of complexity behind a relatively simple interface."

- Dennis Howlett, ZD Net

Utilizing the Appian BPM Suite and Tempo interface, mobile application design is reduced to simple drag-and-drop design for both user interface and process orchestration. The powerful and web-based Process Modeler and Forms Design tools provide business user level control of the interface and flow and mobile BPM applications.

When ready, a designer simply publishes the new mobile application from the web interface. The application is now immediately available on Apple iOS, RIM BlackBerry, and Google Android devices with no need to compile code or publish to an app store.
