Shiah to focus on new low-code paradigm as future of IoT application development

Mountain View, CA—AgilePoint, an established leader in the low-code platform space, today announced that one of its co-founders, Jesse Shiah, will be a featured speaker at Internet of Things West, a technology conference being staged November 3-4, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Internet of Things West is an event covering advanced connectivity and cloud-based control of devices, equipment, facilities and enterprise operations.

While the Internet of Things has been a hot topic in technology circles for the past few years, several factors have inhibited the advancement of IoT technologies. “Most IoT applications created today are point solutions with simple backend integrations,” commented Shiah. “But the real value of the IoT can be realized only when supporting applications move past the point-solution stage, having more sophisticated backend orchestrations spanning actors, line-of-business systems, cloud services, and other IoT systems.”

Shiah went on to point that today’s standard software development methodology—Agile—simply doesn’t address the challenges presented by the IoT. “Agile is too slow and expensive to satisfy the exploding demand for IoT applications,” pointed out Shiah. “And, hand-coded apps lack responsive characteristics, which are a necessity in the 24/7 world of the IoT, where apps can’t be taken offline for updates. That’s where low-code platforms come in,” concluded Shiah, “especially platforms that can quickly produce sophisticated, cross-functional systems that can self-adapt to changing business conditions and technical requirements.”

Shiah’s session, entitled “Compose IoT Business Solutions with a Low-Code Development Platform,” will be on November 3rd at 3pm Pacific.

Internet of Things West will be held at

Low-code leader to demonstrate how its platform can catalyze adoption of Microsoft cloud technologies

Mountain View, CA—AgilePoint, an established low-code leader in the Office 365/SharePoint workflow and app development space, will be attending Microsoft’s MGX conference in Orland, Florida July 19 – 22. The company intends to demonstrate AgilePoint NX, a low-code development platform that provides a stable gateway for migration from older, on-premises versions of SharePoint to Office 365 and from on-premises versions of Microsoft Dynamics to Dynamics 365. AgilePoint NX, which itself can be hosted in Microsoft’s Azure cloud, provides an additional layer of rapid application development capability on top of Azure. AgilePoint will be located at booth #129.

“Microsoft MGX is a conference designed specifically for Microsoft’s own employees,” commented Jesse Shiah, AgilePoint’s CEO, “and only a small, select group of vendors attend the show, generally those who have a technology that meshes entirely with Microsoft’s own strategic goals. AgilePoint NX is such a product.”

AgilePoint NX was recently positioned by Forrester Research as one of the top five low-code platforms across all low-code segments, and, of the top five, is the only one that offers deep integration with Microsoft technologies. “Because of its unique architecture,” continued Shiah, AgilePoint NX can actually catalyze adoption and consumption of the Microsoft cloud technologies by empowering Microsoft customers and partners to create future-proof software assets, which will run on any version of on-premises SharePoint or Dynamics but which are inherently cloud and mobile ready. This approach eliminates version lock and provides a stable gateway for cloud migration.”  Shiah concluded, “AgilePoint NX can perhaps best be described as a low-code, SaaS app factory, enabling Microsoft customers to quickly create cloud-enabled, multi-tenant SaaS apps that span and interact with Microsoft technologies as well as non Microsoft systems.”

Program empowers partners to generate more revenue, higher margins and better customer satisfaction

Mountain View, CA—July 10th, 2016—AgilePoint, a leader in the Microsoft SharePoint workflow and app development space, will be unveiling its new partner program at Microsoft’s Worldwide Partner Conference to be held July 10 – 14 in Toronto, Canada. The new program is designed to attract Microsoft partners who specialize in SharePoint workflow development but which need a comprehensive approach and technology for transitioning customers from legacy SharePoint installations to SharePoint 2016 or Microsoft Office 365.

The new partner program is part of AgilePoint’s go-to-market strategy for AgilePoint NX, which was recently positioned among the top five low-code development platforms by Forrester Research. “While it was an honor to be recognized by Forrester,” commented Jesse Shiah, AgilePoint’s CEO, “it’s important to note that of the top five low-code platforms, AgilePoint NX is the only one to offer deep integration with SharePoint, Office 365, Dynamics CRM, and other Microsoft products.”

Shiah went on to point out that AgilePoint NX has an extensive library of connectors and adaptors that enable Microsoft customers to build composite workflows and systems that incorporate functionality from Microsoft and non-Microsoft products, such as Salesforce, SAP, NetSuite, and Oracle.

AgilePoint NX, the industry’s only responsive application Platform as a Service, allows channel partners to build future-proof workflows and apps that are SharePoint-version agnostic. AgilePoint NX apps are responsive to devices, browsers, environments, and the needs of disparate business units. “AgilePoint NX enables channel partners to, in essence, become SaaS vendors,” Shiah concluded, “ providing them with a private-label portal through which they can license apps to their customers on a subscription basis.

“AgilePoint, a Microsoft Gold level managed ISV partner, has a long history of servicing Microsoft customers with innovative technologies,” commented Michelle Peterson, Director, Solutions Sales at Microsoft. “We’re excited to see how AgilePoint NX can catalyze broad migration from on-premises SharePoint farms to Office 365.”

Intuitive application development environment cited as company’s greatest strength

Mountain View, CA—April, 14, 2016. AgilePoint, a long-time leader in the BPM space, has been positioned as a strong performer in The Forrester Wave™: Low-Code Development Platforms, Q2 2016. The new report, which was published on April 14th, 2016, includes fourteen vendors from four of the five low-code platform segments identified by Forrester as general-purpose platforms, process app platforms, database app platforms, request-handling platforms, and mobile-first app platforms (not included in this evaluation). AgilePoint NX , a process-focused, low-code application Platform as a Service, can be consumed as a multi-tenant, public- or private- cloud offering, which is hosted and managed by AgilePoint in Amazon and Windows Azure.

According to Forrester Research report,

AgilePoint’s greatest strength is its intuitive application development environment, which is easy to navigate and provides comprehensive declarative tooling that makes it easy for novice or expert developers to build new apps.

The report goes on to state that AgilePoint also provides a “strong portfolio of configurable connectors and adaptors to access common systems of record, such as Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce, and SAP.”

“We’re delighted to be recognized by Forrester Research,” commented Jesse Shiah, AgilePoint CEO. “We see AgilePoint NX as a ground-breaking  technology, a view which is being reinforced by market customers. But it’s especially gratifying to be recognized for what we consider to be our innovation and effort by one of the leading independent research firms.”

The Wave report also gave AgilePoint NX the highest score possible for its partner ecosystem, and the second highest score (tied) for number of customers.

Guest presenter, Principal Analyst Clay Richardson, focuses on winning the innovation race via low-code development platforms

Mountain View, CA—April 6, 2016—AgilePoint, an established leader in the low-code BPM space, recently staged a webinar focused on the need to accelerate software innovation in the “age of the customer.” The event, which attracted nearly 300 registrants, featured Clay Richardson, Principal Analyst with Forrester Research. Other presenters included Kevin Brown, CIO of East Lake Capital Management; Niraj Tenany, CIO of Netwoven; and Adnan Qureshi, Development Manager for Dril Quip, each of which discussed his own organization’s successful applications of low-code technology. For a recording of the event, click here.

The term “low-code” was originally coined in a June 2014 Forrester research report in reference to an emerging technology class, which, as Forrester defines it, includes “platforms that enable rapid delivery of business applications with a minimum of hand-coding, and minimal upfront investment in setup, training, and deployment.”

“Given the rapid evolution of the IT industry,” commented Jesse Shiah, CEO of AgilePoint, “traditional development methods, including old-school BPMs, simply aren’t capable of building and delivering applications suitable for today’s multi-channel, multi-device environments at the speed at which enterprises require them. This technology shortfall has catalyzed the emergence of low code and will establish it as one of the most important technology classes for the coming years.”

Richardson, who led off the event, presented compelling evidence for the need for low-code platforms. Richardson pointed specifically to the inability of traditional BPM suites to satisfy emerging requirements, commenting that BPM projects often take too long, cost too much, and yield apps that are difficult to adapt to changing conditions. Richardson then detailed characteristics of low-code platforms that make them better suited for today’s requirements, including

  • Low-cost experimentation on new ideas and low-cost testing of new apps
  • The ability to deploy and scale apps in minutes
  • The ability to generate mobile apps from older apps
  • The leveraging of non-technical knowledge workers to build new apps

Kevin Brown, CIO of East Lake Capital Management, focused on his company’s need for “rapid development of business apps that would result in faster “M&A value. Brown detailed the characteristics of AgilePoint NX that enabled East Lake to meet its requirements, including scalability, flexible licensing, and integration capability.”

Adnan Qureshi of Dril Quip outlined the challenges of process automation faced by his company, which experimented with SharePoint 2013 as a workflow platform. Dril Quip quickly learned Workflow Manager was incapable of enterprise-class, business-process capability, which led to the company’s adoption of AgilePoint NX, which not only provided enterprise class low-code BPM but, also, the ability to span on-premises SharePoint farms and Office 365.

Niraj Tenany, CEO at Netwoven, a SharePoint-focused system integrator, detailed a user story, an enterprise that had been creating business cases using Excel files with an email-based approval process.  Netwoven replaced the error-prone process with an AgilePoint NX workflow that provided advanced, built-in BPM capability.
