InRule, ShareVis look to improve business processes in SharePoint

InRule Technology and ShareVis are combining their respective business rules authoring and process management applications to make it easier for business users to work with complex business processes without the need for coding.

InRule makes a rules engine and the IR suite of business rules authoring and testing tools, while ShareVis provides document control and forms-based business process management. Together, the tools will assist business users in managing “complex, decision-intensive processes,” said consultant James Taylor of Decision Management Solutions in a written statement. “InRule and ShareVis share a pragmatic approach that will be appealing to SharePoint users: native support for .NET and a focus on putting business processes and decision logic in the hands of business users not consultants.”
