"The product's most valuable feature is vulnerability management features."
"The most valuable aspects in terms of features, revolve around its code generation capabilities."
"The initial setup of the product is easy."
"OutSystems' low-cost approach has positively impacted our productivity, because we were able to develop faster with OutSystems, enabling us to implement many changes during our sprint."
"The drag-and-drop feature is very valuable."
"I find it to be a genuinely cool and effective platform for my development needs."
"We can do the validation before calling the API."
"There is literally a ton of stuff it can do. It's very flexible."
"The product is mostly stable."
"The flow editor is the most valuable feature. It is simple and intuitive, and it can guide you step-by-step."
"We've used features like batch processing timers, components, and integrations with other systems like SAP, which have accelerated our development process.In terms of productivity, we've seen a 30 percent reduction in screen design time and an additional 10 percent improvement when implementing client requirements.

"Some of the suggestions provided by GitHub CoPilot are not accurate, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."
"In a few cases, the results aren't correct, so that needs improvement. Also, it would be great if the results could be presented in different formats, not just text. As engineers, it takes time to read through text-based results."
"GitHub CoPilot's alerting features need improvement."
"The suggestions provided by the product must be improved."
"The solution is expensive. It should also support other programming languages."
"The tool needs to focus on integration, as it is the most important aspect. I would like to see some pre-designed modules included in my projects."
"In certain instances, OpenAI didn't respond in the expected way. The responses were more general and didn't address the specific point."
"There's room for improvement to ensure that suggestions align more precisely with the context of what I'm seeking, minimizing instances of unrelated or inaccurate code suggestions."
"The product's high price is an area of concern, where improvements are required."
"I think OutSystems needs to improve in many areas. First, sometimes Service Studio becomes really slow and even hangs for long periods. Also, if I have not published my module in some time, and some kind of Service Studio exception occurs, I lose my work."
"The solution is costly."
"The integration Studio could be improved. It needs a tool in which we could develop C# code and then integrate into OutSystems. The application could have a better UI."
"I would like to see improvements in versioning. It can be challenging to keep track of what changes should be committed, especially when many developers are working in one environment."
"Its ability to create and run automated tasks could be better."
"The largest obstacle currently associated with OutSystems is its high cost and limited availability of skilled personnel. Despite being a rapid application development platform, having a highly skilled individual familiar with the platform can be much more beneficial than an inexperienced individual. Because there is a shortage of people with the necessary OutSystems skills, utilizing the platform can become expensive. This makes little sense, considering that a rapid application development platform should be accessible to the average person. However, having a highly skilled individual can greatly increase productivity, making the cost worthwhile."
"When shared extensions are updated, all the applications are redeployed."
