This section outlines the names of vendors and their products sorted by the four categories. In some cases a “∞“ is inserted in the “product name” column. This means that the vendor’s products can be classified as belonging in more than one category. The vendor names and products are from James G. Kobielus’ Workflow Strategies.¹⁴

All the vendors featured in this section are considered leaders in the field for some reason or other. There are a number of other vendors that might be better suited for specific application needs. The vendors named in this section should not be used as a short-list for selection, but rather as a starting point for exploration. A list of additional Workflow products can be found at http://wwwis.cs.utwente.nl:8080/~joosten/workflow.sites.html. It is to be expected that many of the vendors in the market will not survive the next decade of competition, and the selection of a vendor and partner for development is therefore very important.
