User-Friendly Intuitive and easy-to-use, with drag and drop tools to build forms on a visual canvas-type workspace.

Security Software provides appropriate data and access security.

Regulatory Compliance Includes compliance with regulations and standards such as SOX, HIPPA, NIST, PCI-DSS etc.

Mobile Ability to support multiple devices, OSes and platforms using mobile optimized, HTML-based web access and/or native applications.

Workflow Solution allows business to automate approval and action routines for easy fast processing through the lifecycle.
