What Sets OpenRules Apart
When evaluating decision intelligence platforms, Gartner advises asking vendors these critical questions: ‘How many production deployments use this capability? What’s the typical time from development to production? What integration challenges do clients encounter most frequently? How does versioning work when decision logic changes? What happens when streaming data sources become unavailable?‘
OpenRules welcomes these direct questions and provides straightforward, reference-backed answers. See What People Say about our real-world implementations.
Gartner recognized OpenRules in its Decision Intelligence Market Guide. Forrester wrote: “OpenRules has the most-aggressive approaches to business-expert authoring and typically requires less developer support than IBM ODM, FICO Blaze Advisor, and Red Hat Drools“.
OpenRules is designed for collaboration between subject matter experts (business users) and software developers. The platform eliminates the need for specialized rule languages or proprietary graphical interfaces, allowing customers to work within familiar paradigms.
Users can create and manage business rules directly in MS Excel® or Google Sheets®, utilizing built-in LLM capabilities, and execute the decision models through standard file systems. Alternatively, they can use the graphical Decision Modeling IDE, which automatically builds Decision Diagrams and includes a powerful Rule Debugger that executes rules one-by-one, simplifying the analysis of complex decision models.
Decision models created and tested with OpenRules integrate seamlessly into your decision-making applications without restrictions. Deploy them as containerized decision services using AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, RESTful Web Services, SharePoint, Spark, Docker, and Kubernetes — on any popular cloud platform.
Competitively priced, OpenRules is built for modern serverless architecture and deploys seamlessly across cloud containers, on-premise infrastructure, and mobile platforms.
