Salesforce.com, the enterprise cloud computing company, announced the availability of Force.com Visual Process Manager, a new capability of the Force.com platform that will help companies rapidly automate any business process.

With the Force.com Visual Process Manager, customers can, for the first time, visually design any complex business process with an intuitive, visual design tool, and instantly run it in the cloud.

Companies in a wide variety of industries, including telecommunications, financial services, and manufacturing are looking for faster, easier and less complicated ways to automate their important business processes that connect their customers, employees, and operations. With Force.com Visual Process Manager, organizations can build business process applications with greater flexibility and automate processes across all departments.

Prior to the Force.com Visual Process Manager, companies had to buy expensive on-premise software, hardware and infrastructure to automate processes. Furthermore, they could not innovate on these processes once they were deployed because the complexity of the software made changes cost-prohibitive.

“The use of Force.com Visual Process Manager furthers Saveology.com’s goal of consolidating our technology architecture and moving more of our business processes into the cloud leveraging the Force.com platform," said Barry Newman, vice president of IT, Saveology.com. "We continue to see improvements in productivity and time to market for new offerings and processes.”
