User Testimonials
	Higson	SMARTS Decision Management Platform
Likelihood to Recommend	Decerto Hyperon is less appropriate in smaller projects that do not contain a lot of business logic. However, if there are a lot of business rules to manage, many things that might be frequently changed, then Hyperon is a good tool to address it. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sparkling Logic, Inc. Smarts is well-suited to handle rules orchestration for complex decision flows where there's a need for advanced functionality and reusable components or assets. It is very useful for scenario testing, modeling, and dashboarding. These capabilities give you robust insights and help you optimize your decisions. It is less appropriate for very simple decisioning needs. Seth Baumwell Product Manager Read full review
Pros	Decerto Separation of business logic from the app's code Decision table performance Good GUI Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sparkling Logic, Inc. No answers on this topic
Cons	Decerto Pretty high entry threshold A few bugs in GUI UX might be better in some places Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sparkling Logic, Inc. No answers on this topic
Usability	Decerto It's a very good tool to manage business rules. There are certain GUI bugs and a code boilerplate, but overall it does its job really well. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sparkling Logic, Inc. No answers on this topic
Support Rating	Decerto There is documentation on the site to help learn about the tool. There is also an email to ask for help or any other questions. The team responds quickly with a full answer. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sparkling Logic, Inc. No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Decerto Hyperon has got far better performance. It also has far better GUI to manage business rules. On the other hand, Drools has a bigger community to help you with your problems. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sparkling Logic, Inc. No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Decerto Shorter time to market with new features Business users might change things without the help of developers Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sparkling Logic, Inc. No answers on this topic
