RESTON, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Bamboo Solutions, the leading provider of solutions for Microsoft® SharePoint, has announced the immediate availability of Workflow Conductor™ v2.0 for SharePoint 2010. Workflow Conductor is a comprehensive solution for business process automation, leveraging SharePoint. This second major release of Workflow Conductor delivers a new slate of best-in-class features, along with key improvements and upgrades based on customer feedback from previous versions. With this release, Bamboo continues to push the envelope of process automation by creating capabilities not possible with SharePoint out-of-the-box, and by providing key features not currently available in the marketplace.

Workflow Conductor is a complete business process solution that provides organizations with all of the tools they need to quickly automate their business functions, all without the lengthy development time and high cost associated with building custom applications. Workflow Conductor provides everything from simple workflow design and deployment, to process management and maintenance.

With Workflow Conductor 2.0 for 2010, Bamboo delivers all-new, innovative features built to satisfy customer needs. These features allow organizations to better control where workflows are used, and what they can do. New workflow deployment options allow businesses to control the scope of workflows, while simple workflow versioning makes process maintenance painless.

Workflow Conductor now includes more than 50 different “widgets” which act as modular building blocks, allowing users to automate almost any task. New widgets include expanded SharePoint and Active Directory group/user management capabilities, new site creation and management functions, more list and item controls, and even a widget that allows custom code to be executed. This means nearly limitless extensibility to Workflow Conductor.

“Beyond the new features and product improvements, the strategic significance of this release is Bamboo’s long term commitment to investing in business process automation,” said Jeff Tubb, Senior Product Manager at Bamboo Solutions. “The ability to use workflow as a means to enhance, extend and customize Bamboo’s existing portfolio of SharePoint solutions is going to be a point of focus going forward.”

As with previous versions, Workflow Conductor continues to allow workflow actions to run on other sites and site collections, and to allow individual actions to run under separate credentials. Features like these ensure that businesses can easily automate their existing processes, rather than change their processes to fit the confines of a software solution.

Version 2.0 of Workflow Conductor for SharePoint 2010 is available as a free trial download, and free webinars providing detailed product information and use cases are conducted weekly. For more information, visit Bamboo Workflow Conductor.
