• Metastorm Smart Business Workspace is designed to deliver personalization at an individual level, allow users to engage in skills-based collaboration with people regardless of location, and empower users to leverage the information and functions of Metastorm’s enterprise software and other applications from a single, role-driven user interface.
  
  
• The Metastorm Enterprise software portfolio is recognized by the top industry analyst firms and by its customers as a leading technology suite across the three disciplines of EA, BPA and BPM, and has received accolades for both the breadth and depth of its functionality.
  
  
• The software enables organizations to model, visualize and improve the entire enterprise and to realize these improvements through integrated execution. Metastorm Smart Business Workspace transforms the power of Metastorm’s enterprise software into a highly personalized user experience that results in faster, easier access to information and a more productive, agile work environment regardless of the user’s role.
  
  
• Key capabilities and benefits of Metastorm Smart Business Workspace include:
  
  - Highly personalized user experience. Role-based views take into account job description, skill set, knowledge base, key responsibilities and personal preferences to go beyond traditional role or persona-based interfaces to support very specific attributes and preferences of users.
  
  - Ability to easily mash up and integrate data and applications via widgets. Libraries of widgets related to the use of Metastorm’s enterprise business architecture, business process analysis, business process management, and integration software are available to plug into the Metastorm Smart Business Workspace. By allowing users to easily mix and match information and functions across Metastorm’s full enterprise software portfolio – as well as other applications – organizations can seamlessly deliver cross-functional insight, planning, analysis, decision-making, and execution.
  
  - Social collaboration delivered in an enterprise work environment. Social collaboration technologies such as chat, instant messaging, and online communities are combined with a powerful ability to identify and communicate with precisely the right set of enterprise resources as needed at any given time. The result is a new level of work-oriented, enterprise collaboration.
  
  - Widget and workspace designer tool. The Metastorm Widget Designer enables even non-technical users to rapidly and easily create their own widgets. Rather than simply rendering views of information and dashboards, Metastorm has provided the ability to design and create extremely rich, entirely new widgets and applications that include built-in transaction support, governance and advanced external integration capabilities.
