OpenText updates Metastorm with personnel directory
Summary
"The primary focus of this release is taking what we have learned from social media," said Sandra Moran, OpenText senior director of product marketing. BPM software provides the mechanism to automate many common business routines or processes, so they can be completed more quickly and with more oversight. It can work as a front end for Metastorms entire product suite, including not only the BPM software but also the companys enterprise architecture and data integration tools. The newly released version 9.0 of the software can offer a directory of employees, which can help the user and even workflow processes find experts in a certain topic more quickly. Users can search for skillsets, or embed them within a business process workflow, so employees will know who to call when a work item requires in-house expertise to resolve a problem.
