Trans-Language Development Environment

Pre-built and customization abilities maximize investments

Sophistication, Power and Flexibility of an "out-of-the-box" full featured Development Environment

Santéon's distributed software architecture offers unprecedented power and customization capabilities for process integration and development offering the industry's only Trans-Language Development Environment. This unique environment enables users to reach deep into the features and functionality of the platform without intimate knowledge of its architecture details or be afraid to break its core operations. Additionally, you can work in a language neutral architecture, without learning proprietary syntax requiring months of training.

The concept behind the technology design of Santéon's Trans-Language Development Environment is simply that the development needs and business drivers of different organizations are different so there needs to be a multi-language capability. All organizations need as much built-in capabilities as possible, with the ability to tailor it to their unique needs. Balancing this environment between pre-built functionality and customization is what makes Santéon XIP BPM so powerful. Many products offer one strength or the other, meaning that you are either forced to tailor your business the tools capabilities or you have to hard code much of the solution yourself.
