Appian

Appian is easy to learn and quickly start solving problems. It is also very powerful and supports very complex business use cases without the need to write custom code. It also cuts design time significantly with many cool features such as fantastic mobile apps with no additional effort.

The only downside to Appian is the license cost.

Go for it. You are not likely going to regret going with Appian

Appian allows for significant and contextually relevant business logic to expose and or route data along complex paths.

While Appian has made significant strides in improving its design features it still lacks the ability to design forms that are little more than a utilitarian look and feel.

BPM platforms are very complex. Evaluating each platform is time consuming and requires a commitment for the evaluation team to learn at a high level how each platform works. To make the most informed decision I would recommend that you do the following: Create evaluation criteria and apply a defined score to each so that you are evaluating apples to apples. Determine the requirements of a small POC and have each organization develop the POC. Finally if you determine Appian is the platform for you then once you deploy then choose a small application as your first project.

Across our various business units many processes were being managed via email and spreadsheet. In addition, many business units were either having to work in multiple applications and or outdated apps (SharePoint 2010). Appian has provided the ability to act as a "spine" where they connect to other enterprise applications to push/pull data along its flow.
