"OpenRules Decision Manager dramatically improves loading and execution time for our large decision tables accumulated over the last 8 years. It also gives us a direct path to migrating our existing rules-based decision services to the cloud." a large claim processing company, Albany, NY, 2020

"OpenRules has been around for a long time and has been one of the forerunners in support for decision modelling practices and with it being open source, there's a lot to recommend it as a tool, not just from a technical perspective but from the point of view that it's been developed by a team with a real understanding of the practicalities of modelling, not just a slavish adherence to a specification that has seen some tool vendors ignore business expertise in favour of purist technical interpretation and thus deliver something that has limited real-world value. The great thing about OpenRules is that its interface is Excel, which means that you can start creating decision tables straight away in a tool that most people will have, which ultimately is the quickest way to get to grips with how DMN works." Nick Broom, 2019

"I have happily purchased another year's support for the latest 7.x.x packages. Thank you for the continued great product evolution." 2018, StephenKClark@yahoo.com

"I’ve used OpenRules in production systems and have already found it to be very intuitive. Now that the book is out, the overall learning curve has been simplified even further without unnecessary information overload. This allows anybody to quickly learn and become productive with rule engines based solutions in general and OpenRules specifically. For the latter, the book provides all the information necessary to package your OpenRules project as a ready to go, deployable solution" Erik Marutian, The Bank of The West, 2017

"I would strongly advise use of a business decision analysis technique, like the Decision Model (TDM), and the use of a BDMS (for example, OpenRules) that allows business users to capture, validate and test their decision logic with minimal (but well specified) IT involvement." Jan Purchase, Solution Architect at Deutsche Bank, 2013

"In addition to the very accomplished rules engine that is OpenRules, very convincing is the optimization tool, and automatic rules generation capability.

The depth of the OpenRules product never fails to amaze me."  Larry Goldberg, co-author of "The Decision Model", a partner at KPI, 2011

"The OpenRules engine is very intuitive, and powerful, at the same time. It enables our product specialists to implement new business rules themselves, in Excel files, as opposed to having to work with a software specialist, which inevitably takes more time. Furthermore, the support has been fantastic!", Peter Link, Regal Beloit Corporation, 2010

"Thanks so much for your help!  The support I get for this framework (for free!) was the deciding factor to go with this BRMS, as opposed to JBoss Rules/Drools, Jess, or ILOG JRules." David Rosenfield, The Lafayette Life Insurance Company, david.rosenfield@lafayettelife.com, 2010

"We use OpenRules as part of a hospital infection surveillance application, with rules designed to identify suspicious lab results based on a variety of clinician-defined conditions.  We found the tool easy to incorporate into our J2EE application and easy to customize.

Desai, MD, MBI, Pediatrician, Clinical Informaticist, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, 2009

Rex Bosma, Manager of Data Flow Operations, European Patent Office, 2008

"OpenRules is an example of a rules-based OSS BI application. It offers a methodology, along with OSS tools and professional services for business analysts rather than or in concert with developers. This is an interesting approach and an approach that will be important in the long run to grow all categories of OSS applications." Dennis Byron, Analyst, ebizQ, review "Open Source Business Intelligence Megatrends", 2007

"The biggest advantage of using OpenRules Engine lies in its flexibility to change the business rules in the Excel sheet at run time and have these reflected in the application – requiring no additional build, deployment or server startup. Add to that, the fact that it easily integrates with existing web applications also results in a smaller learning curve and easier adoption." P.N.Subramanian, pn.subramanian@gmail.com

The ability to use a simple smart interface such as MS Excel to implement your rules and the ease of use with the Java API and conformance to JSR94 are all positives of the engine I would have no hesitation to recommend it to colleagues. Thanks for all the hard work." Harvey Raja, harvey.raja.uk@googlemail.com, 2006

"Wow! Excellent job. Now with OpenRules 2.1.0 , I'm able to compile and run the demos, both on Mac OS X and on Linux (Mandrake). As a test, I tried making some modifications to both the Java source files and the XLS file (using OpenOffice.org) in the HelloJava demo, and had no problems getting it to rebuild and run. Now that I can actually run the examples I can see that it's every bit as slick as I was hoping it would be. The distribution structure is definitely more multi-platform friendly. Kudos to the developers for making these changes so quickly." Steve Jakob, http://www.wideskies.ca/, 2005

"I am glad to report that problem was solved by your proposal and Japanese was displayed correctly. As the result, everyone can make a Web application in a Japanese environment by using OpenRules. We express our sincere gratitude for your cooperation." Hiromi Okada, http://www.blowline.co.jp, 2005

Paul R Camann, http://www.csc.com, 2005
