RESTON, Va., July 20, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Appian, (NASDAQ:APPN), a leading
global provider of low-code application development and BPM software, today
announced the addition of Blue Prism's industry leading Robotic Process
Automation (RPA) capabilities to its platform. The new product offering, Appian
RPA with Blue Prism, brings together leading low-code application development,
BPM, and robotic workforce software for the first time as an offering from a
single vendor. This offering builds on an already well-established partnership
while giving organizations a one-stop-shop for all their enterprise automation
needs, especially those that require the highest levels of auditing, security
and scalability.
"Appian's platform is now extended with robotic process automation from Blue
Prism," said Matt Calkins, CEO, Appian. "Appian and Blue Prism are leaders in
their respective markets, and this alliance brings our customers the best of
both worlds. We've aligned the products and companies well, and implemented
successfully together at major client locations."
Appian RPA with Blue Prism enables greater automation for enterprises. Appian's
leading BPM capabilities automate end-to-end business processes. The newly added
digital workforce of software robots empowers employees to focus on higher-value
work while autonomous multi-skilled software robots perform error-free
repetitive tasks.
The low-code application development capabilities offered as part of the new
product will allow enterprises to rapidly build modern business applications and
bring new products and services to the market quickly. Automated business
processes built using the combination of BPM and RPA will underpin these
applications and create new efficiencies by intelligently executing actions and
tasks that traditionally required manual intervention. Key benefits of Appian
