iRise is a requirements definition and software prototyping platform used to create simulations of business software. It allows business analysts, product managers, project managers and usability professionals to assemble fully functional simulations of software solutions that mimic the exact look, feel, and behavior of the proposed final product. Business stakeholders, end users and development teams can interact with the simulation and conduct near-final usability testing prior to the start of coding. The visual allows users to get the desired features, functionality, look and feel before development. Web applications, commercial off-the-shelf systems like SAP and Oracle, desktop systems, and mobile apps can be simulated.
