In short

What does TechTiera do for OpenText AppWorks?

TechTiera provides OpenText AppWorks services as an OpenText partner: licensing advice and resale, application and case management design, low-code development of entities, forms, rules and lifecycles, AppWorks Gateway and mobile, integrations with Content Server, Documentum, xECM, SAP and REST services, upgrades from Process Suite and older AppWorks releases, testing, and application support.

  • Business owners who need case or request-handling apps faster than custom development allows.
  • Public sector agencies managing permits, inspections, complaints or investigations.
  • IT teams maintaining older Process Suite or AppWorks apps that need upgrading.
  • ECM owners who want apps built directly on top of governed OpenText content.
