BonitaSoft, provider of open source business process management (BPM) solutions, has delivered a preview version of its open source BPM software: Bonita Open Solution 5.0, reports Reuters.

More than a new version, Bonita Open Solution 5.0 is a complete redesign of the Bonita BPM solution from all points of view: technical, ergonomic, and functional.

According to the company, with Bonita Open Solution one can design a process, connect to existing information systems, and generate applications for end-users.

Auckland-based Greentree continues to extend its business software suite, offering a BPM and mobility solution to customers as well as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) option, according to Computerworld.

The BPM module comes as an extension to the workflow desktops Greentree has already launched, says Peter Dickinson, the company's executive director. He says the BPM offering is now in the market after going through a beta cycle, partners have been trained and a roadshow is planned to promote the new product.

Dickinson says the BPM product was a four-stage build, starting with the workflow desktops, built using object-oriented Jade, which allows flags to be put on objects to allow real-time updates and alerts.
