Kenesto to Premiere at SolidWorks World 2012

Kenesto (http://www.kenesto.com) will demonstrate its business process automation system publicly for the first time at SolidWorks® World 2012, booth 226, in San Diego, CA from February 12 through February 15, 2012.

Kenesto™, now in beta testing, is a completely new, 100% cloud-based system that allows users in all departments of the manufacturing enterprise to create processes and manage work easily. Until Kenesto, users outside of engineering departments have resisted legacy systems like PLM because these systems are simultaneously complex, inflexible and expensive.

Kenesto overcomes users’ reluctance to use previous-generation process systems by using computing concepts users already understand. By coupling an attractive design with sophisticated inference technology, Kenesto “learns” processes as users simply attach data and route it to the next person or organization in the process. There is no need to model a process in advance, deploy it to a process execution engine or install any client software. Kenesto runs in any HTML5-capable browser, including mobile devices running Android® and iOS®.

“We are excited to introduce Kenesto to the Dassault Systèmes community at SolidWorks World 2012,” said Michael Payne, CEO, Kenesto. “We believe there is an affinity among SolidWorks customers and partners and Kenesto users. This community has always been among the first to adopt new products that are cost-effective, easy to use and which make their products more competitive. SolidWorks users who have seen Kenesto so far have confirmed that the product delivers these benefits. Now, we are pleased to share Kenesto with the wider Dassault Systèmes community.”

At SolidWorks World booth 226, attendees and DS SolidWorks Partners will be able to see Kenesto in action and meet with the company’s managers and the product definition team. One-on-one meetings will allow customers and partners to ask detailed questions in order to evaluate participation in the Kenesto beta program. Kenesto staff will be available to discuss specific processes and implementation. Customers and DS SolidWorks resellers are encouraged to contact the company in advance to set up individual meetings with company management and/or the product definition team. To request a meeting please email your request to sww2012@kenesto.com.
