Find out in this report how the two Rapid Application Development Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."You can scale the solution."
"I think that the workflow and automation features are quite good."
"We also use Mendix Enterprise Integration for complex business logic. It's a low-code platform, so we run Mendix in the Mendix Cloud."
"I find the fast development speed and low cost to be very valuable features of Mendix. It's a smart solution for busy developers when we need to apply new changes or fixes quickly. Mendix helps to save time and meet project deadlines faster."
"The most valuable features are the integration and UI customization."
"There are free online learning and certifications if a user would like to learn more and better understand the solution."
"What I found most valuable in Mendix is that it's very much suitable for mobile apps such as native Android or IOS supported mobile apps. The multiple features of the platform are very, very attractive and very popular. Mendix has technical features such as microflows and nanoflows. You can also access data models in the platform. These are the features that are very, very strong in Mendix. I got my hands dirty on other low-code platforms, but I have not seen such strong features in them compared to the microflows, nanoflows, and data model access that are in Mendix, including creating and integration. The platform has out-of-the-box adapters or out-of-the-box-connectors that you can integrate with different interface applications such as SAP, Salesforce, Oracle EBS, etc."
"The pricing is very clear, with no hidden fees."
"The case management functionality of this solution has been most valuable."
"This solution is useful for business process management if you have any banking solutions or need to manage a process."
"The solution's case management is its most valuable aspect."
"The interface is quite simple and easy to use, even for beginners."
"The case management is great."
"The solution provides us with a very good dashboard."
"The user interface and the ease of developing the workflow for an application are valuable features."
"The stability has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"An improvement I would like to see is the ability to version manage independent modules. Their version management for software repositories must be better. It's good and you can do it, but it needs work."
"While the community is great, they need to work on making their direct technical support services better."
"Needs multiple database connections so an app can directly read/write data to/from multiple databases. This would enable easy splitting of big applications that have complex entity relationships."
"Mendix is slightly less scalable than I'd like."
"Mendix is great for internal applications but not so great for a public-facing interface. It lacks a proper directory structure for public use. The URL will not change from page to page unless a deep link is created for each page. That makes it difficult to bookmark pages in the browser to view later on."
"We'd like to be able to write in C Sharp to develop code for Mendix."
"I would like to see more documentation as well as how-to documents."
"Mendix needs to think about itself offering machine learning and artificial intelligence."
"UI needs improvement."
"The unit testing needs to improve, as well as the user interface."
"It needs more integration with other platforms."
"One of the areas of this solution that could be improved would be to advance the low code features of the application itself. We would also like to use the same platform to build any application, even if it is not necessarily defined as a functionality needed by a BPM."
"This is a quite expensive product."
"Pega Cloud early adoption and use for cross enterprise capability was new to many. The early adoption meant version 2.0 of their cloud service may require refactoring and redesign of some services."
"We need more light retail BPM tools within the Pega system. However, Pega is mostly for big companies."
"The main problem with Pega is that it is quite complex, so it is very difficult for the developer to learn."
