"I think that the workflow and automation features are quite good."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Mendix has made a great deal of effort to provide its developers a healthy, modern environment for developing. First of all, it adopts Agile methodology by creating a SCRUM-based app where you can handle your user stories. Next comes version control, which really allows multiple team members to collaborate quite easily. And last but not least, Mendix modeler, which is your IDE for developing Mendix apps."
"The pricing is very clear, with no hidden fees."
"The user experience is great."
"They are leading in the smart manufacturing, and connectivity space."
"The development environment is model-driven. We can use the information from this for our business engineers to make the information models, and they can also execute the model."
"The reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"It provides a well-organized method for overseeing everything, especially considering the remote work aspect."
"It is low-code. We are able to go in and create apps quickly. It is very helpful for the size of our company. We're a mid-size company, and at this moment, we don't need anything externally. We don't have to go out and consult a consulting firm to build something from the ground up. So, the ease of that and being able to get development quickly up and running has been good for us."
"There's a lot of stability in QuickBase...I really appreciate the processing part of QuickBase, especially considering how we're able to get information in real time instead of having to wait."
"The product is easy to use."
"This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data."
"QuickBase reminds me when a software license or a hardware support contract is near expiration so that I can initiate our company's procurement process in time and not miss a deadline."
"Feature-wise and in terms of technical aspects, Mendix is excellent, but its pricing is steep."
"While the community is great, they need to work on making their direct technical support services better."
"While the documentation is good, the development box could be better."
"In the beginning, it is difficult to learn and work with."
"The platform still has many areas for improvement. If I compare apples to apples, the PWA features of Mendix could be improved, for example, I wouldn't recommend creating a B2C or B2B marketplace or web portals on Mendix, but there's a tendency for people to still do it through the systems provided by my company, particularly implement B2B or B2C marketplace, versus using eBay or Shopify. On the web portal front, Mendix still needs to improve."
"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."
"We'd like to be able to write in C Sharp to develop code for Mendix."
"Mendix could improve by allowing the customization of different programming languages, such as Python and C++."
"It would be beneficial for the QuickBase team to focus on improving the integration of cloud-based storage platforms within their product. In use cases like ours, where QuickBase serves as a centralized source of truth for construction projects, having seamless integration with platforms like Dropbox or OneDrive would greatly enhance the product's capabilities."
". For example, we need a third-party to create and save a document in PDF, MS Word, or MS Excel format. The document saving capability is probably the feature that we most often have to procure from an outside provider."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"They could enhance the ability to link records between tables directly without the need for additional automation to increase space and time."
"When learning QuickBase, I noticed a shift in its cost structure. It operated on a cost-efficient model tied to the number of users, with invoicing based on applicants."
"The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
"The mobile app has improved, but it still needs work."
