The tool is tremendously flexible and can be made to suit a variety of purposes.  I&amp;#39;d suggest engaging with the technical sales representatives to ensure you&amp;#39;re armed with the information you need.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having said that, here&amp;#39;s my list of best features:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1) Appian, the company itself, employs stellar people who quickly adapt the product to emerging desires of their customers.  They also have kept this company at the forefront of technology innovation.&lt;br /&gt;
2) Divorcing the user interface components from being tightly bound to forms and reports.  This flexibility has allowed us to allocate project resources very effectively&lt;br /&gt;
3) Adoption of Hibernate and abstraction of data types into XML/XSD.  The relief from writing complex SQL, and the ability to quickly write queries using a!queryEntity are huge and have reduced our development time significantly&lt;br /&gt;
4) An open API for Java extension.  Although we have found everything we need in the out - of - box solution, we recognize Appian&amp;#39;s commitment to this as important.&lt;br /&gt;
5) The user community, where we are right now.  Many of our problems and challenges have been solved by this group.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having worked with the product for 11 years,  I think that they&amp;#39;ve fixed any complaints that I had years ago.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
