Joget Workflow Redefines How Process-Driven Web Applications Are Built
Sunnyvale, California (15 July 2010): Open Dynamics Inc. today announced a new version of Joget Workflow, furthering its goal of allowing businesses a simple and easy way of automating their business processes. Two and a half months since the release of Version 2.0 for beta testing, Joget Workflow Version 2.0 has now graduated from Beta with a list of new features and user experience enhancements. Java-based Joget Workflow began as an open source workflow management system built with simplicity in mind and is now progressing towards the goal of being an application builder for processdriven applications, starting from the release of Version 2.0, with a new feature called Userview. "Since Jan 2010, Joget Workflow has received more than 6000 downloads and a great deal of enthusiastic feedback that includes a request for a web front-end application builder," said Tiensoon Law, VP, Technical Consulting. "Now with the release of Version 2.0, we have equipped users with a tool to build a web front-end application without any coding. This is exciting!" Typically, in almost all of the workflow products, users are faced with a task-driven user interface. When a workflow activity is started, the relevant user will get a new task, such as to fill up or approve a form. But, the task list does not present a meaningful front-end aggregated view commonly expected in a web application, which includes sorting and searching. The limited taskdriven user interface, often leads to the need for companies to custom develop a web front-end application, which involves additional cost, time and resources. In Joget Workflow Version 2.0, by using the Userview feature, a user can configure to build a web frontend application from the processes deployed, to display record listings in various perspectives as a full- fledged web application. With Userview, companies will be able to save the additional cost of building a web front-end application, Tiensoon added. The configuretobuild approach of Userview will allow users to assemble a process-driven web application. Other new features include: Mobile view New facelift with improved navigation and user experience Enhanced Form Builder RSS support Enhanced integration security User and group search in Participant Mapping Support for RTL (right-to-left) languages, such as Arabic Improved export/import of workflow and userview packages About Open Dynamics Inc.
