Axure RP enables application designers to create wireframes, flow diagrams, prototypes, and specifications for applications and web sites faster and easier than creating static mockups with their current tools.

 

Wireframes are an effective tool for collecting and presenting functionality, navigation, and content of an application or web site. Attaching annotations or notes to elements or widgets on the wireframe eliminate guesswork and help clarify specific functions. With Axure RP Pro, creating annotated wireframes is fast and effective, allowing you to focus on the design instead of the documentation.

 

Flow diagrams are an effective tool for visualizing page flows, scenarios, and business processes. With Axure RP Pro, easily create flow diagrams that are integrated with the wireframes in your design.

 

Prototyping is an effective way to simplify documentation, elicit increased user input, identify missing requirements earlier, and minimize extraneous requirements. Reams of documentation can be captured in annotated, interactive screens that grab the attention of stakeholders and users. With Axure RP Pro, creating interactive, browser-based prototypes is as simple as a click of a button and does not require writing a single line of code!

Specifications are an effective way to document, communicate, and achieve agreement on a design. With Axure RP, generate easy-to-read, professional functional specifications that coincide with the flow diagrams and annotated wireframes in your design.

iRise Studio is an application definition authoring tool used by business analysts, usability professionals and project managers to quickly visualize and define business software. Unlike traditional requirements tools, iRise Studio can be used to create fully interactive, high definition replicas of the target application that stakeholders actually delight in using. iRise simulations are easy to assemble for non-programmers and are so realistic users will swear they are interacting with the final production application. The "drag and drop" interface is easy to master and the final product becomes a visual blueprint for what to build. No confusion, no lost cycles and no rework.

Benefits:

• Visual, interactive simulations eliminate confusion, accelerating time to market
• No confusion means no rework; costs are kept under control & developers get to move on to other projects
• Business analysts become prototyping powerhouses, freeing development resources
• Outsourcing strategies can now be executed with low risk of failure
• Usability design can be moved to the front of the development process, improving adoption & cutting training costs
• Downstream organizations get a head-start on test scripts, documentation & training, speeding up the delivery process

iRise Studio can be used to simulate highly interactive rich Internet behavior. Web-based business systems are quickly taking advantage of newer techniques and technologies to improve the user's experience by providing features and functionality expected in traditional desktop applications. iRise Studio sets the standard in helping non-technical definition teams to define compelling simulations of applications including many of the behaviors found in rich internet applications today.
