"Appian also has very flexible local integration."
"Form building capabilities and well thought out process modelling are key points to this product."
"Compared to other code tools that I've seen, Appian has a more robust rules engine"

"One of the areas that Appian is working on is to improve its UI capabilities and give more flexibility to the UI."
"There should be more flexibility for the developers to choose the look and feel of the UI. They should have a better ability to design their widgets and customize them with different colors, shapes, and sizes. That is a limitation that could be improved upon."
"Appian has a few areas for improvement, which my organization raised with the Appian team. One is the Excel output which is limited to fifty columns when it should be up to two hundred or three hundred columns."
"The tool itself is pretty good, but the main area that we struggled with was the backend. The frontend development is really good, but the backend modeling can be streamlined a little bit. There are good integrations, but tying them through the data layer and then up into the frontend could be improved a little bit. It does read/write on the data source, and you can configure it to just write or just read, but there is a little bit of work involved."
"The reporting is not as good as in similar products. They could also improve the dashboards."
"There could be a lot more application integration."
