Bonitasoft wins award for best open source application

SAN FRANCISCO, USA: Bonitasoft, business process management (BPM) solution provider, today announced it has been honored for the third consecutive year as a recipient of IDG's InfoWorld Bossie (Best of Open Source Software) Award which recognizes the best open source software solutions for business.

Bonita BPM 6, the company's flagship solution, was highlighted for providing business users and IT professionals the advanced set of BPM tools necessary to enhance collaboration, drive end-user efficiency and quickly improve organizational processes.

Selected by InfoWorld's Test Center editors and reviewers, the award seeks to identify the most promising and cost-effective products available to IT organizations while acknowledging that increasingly, those products - from application development tools to platforms and infrastructure software to CRM and ERP applications - are open source.

According to InfoWorld, "Years in the making, Bonita BPM 6 was worth the wait. The new release sports a speedier services-based runtime engine and a REST API. It also abstracts configuration parameters from applications for deploying updates without rebooting. A sleek redesign of the user portal improves accessibility and mixes in mobile."

"The Bonita BPM Studio still makes easy work of forms editing and process modeling. With the new release, parallel flows function as expected under the BPMN 2.0 spec. More advanced features such as subtasks and error management require a commercial subscription. Activity monitoring and business rules management could be stronger, but the latest updates and a solid portfolio of connectors make Bonita the best in open source BPM."
