Why Choose BUSINESS FIRST? For better business…
BUSINESS FIRST is WYMIWYG (What you model is what you get): next-generation business application tools
Truly BUSINESS FIRST. Unlike other composite solutions, BUSINESS FIRST is based on more than a decade of BPM and workflow experience, with thousands of applications working in hundreds of companies. We’ve married the flexibility, speed and efficiency of composite applications with built-in, proven business process productivity – all in a model-driven solution that can be deployed at a fraction of the cost, time and effort of traditional alternatives.
Applications that can work the way your users want to work. Our business model design makes it easy to collaborate with users and for them to define what they need. BUSINESS FIRST captures both explicit and implicit processes to automate and improve workflow. Change is easy, from the interface to the business rules to the data sources.
Designed for agility. You manage the business process and rules and identify the data model and sources, and BUSINESS FIRST essentially automates the rest – for applications that range from simple to complex and scale accordingly. Users are part of the development process and changes are made easy, providing natural tools for agility. Composing a logical view of the business model allows a seamless mix of heterogeneous and distributed data.
Extend the life of legacy investments. With BUSINESS FIRST, you can fill the gap in existing applications. Or create completely new applications, reusing data for smarter ways to work. BUSINESS FIRST works with both structured and unstructured data, reusing existing application systems, databases and documents.
Budget-friendly, Fortune 500 quality. BUSINESS FIRST lowers IT costs starting from design. W4 offers trial licensing, so you – and your business users – can see BUSINESS FIRST in action with your processes and your data. You can deploy on premise, ranging from developer editions to multi-server licensing. Or choose the cloud for SaaS today and PaaS tomorrow. By automatically producing applications from the business model, and because less code means less bugs, BUSINESS FIRST ensures high application quality.
Serious experience. Since 1996, W4 has been developing and delivering business-driven solutions at the forefront of technological innovation. More than 300 organizations, including 50% of the France’s largest public companies, in industries ranging from airports and utilities to media and manufacturing have created thousands of applications using W4 solutions.
