Introduction

Metastorm BPM (formerly ‘e-work’) is a mature Business Process Management Development platform. It employs a very simple and effective approach to most data entry and data processing problems that are faced by the majority of organisations in the world today, of whatever size.

The ability to easily define business processes using a graphical Designer also makes it an ideal tool for producing, demonstrating and even documenting business processes. The ease with which even quite complex processes may be defined and maintained makes it a very effective development tool with a low cost of maintenance for solutions, as there is often no need for complex hand- written code. Finally the ability to provide simple and effective web-based solutions with no client installation can dramatically reduce cost of ownership.
