We performed a comparison between Mendix and Worksoft Certify based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about OutSystems, Mendix, Salesforce and others in Mobile Development Platforms."We find it intuitive and easy to use."
"The most valuable features of Mendix are the drag and drop functions, the data entities, domain models, and all the related features."
"Mendix code and coding logic are very visual. It looks like a flow chart rather than lines of code. Rapid development is what drew us to Mendix."
"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."
"What I like best about Mendix is that it's leading the way for low-code, no-code platforms compared to other solutions in the market."
"There are free online learning and certifications if a user would like to learn more and better understand the solution."
"The most valuable features are the decorative style, model-driven development, and the fact that Mendix validates flows. Mendix is quick to develop because it's a low-code platform. It's very robust, flexible, open, and scalable. It's for a low-code customer. The tooling is also really good and it has mobile capabilities."
"You can scale the solution."
"It does allow for good reusability. When it's designed properly and utilized properly, we can put things in a way that allows for reusability, meaning a lot of reuse of VA01, if they're very similar flows, to keep it simple."
"The decoupling of the test scripts from the data and the application is a nice feature. When you are creating test scripts, for example, for a web application, you have to learn about Worksoft and how the controls of a screen can be interpreted by Worksoft. For that purpose, you create so-called maps. These maps are loosely coupled to your scripts, which means if the application is changed, the control will be changed from an identifier. You don't need to rework the entire script. You only need to do these adjustments in the map, and then you can automatically reuse the scripts. So, it is really a smart move to have the decoupling of scripts, maps, and data."
"What I like about Worksoft Certify is that end-to-end testing becomes faster."
"Worksoft Certify supports multiple interfaces and applications like SAP, Web, or Silverlight Java, and Mainframe. It is easily integrated."
"The most valuable features of Worksoft Certify are the way we can maintain the processes and sub-processes inside. We can immediately identify and replicate multiple objects in the application without having a major issue with it. We are able to do a lot of operations even with the solution being completely scriptless. That is a large advantage compared with other automation tools."
"The easy of use and ease of integration of Worksoft Certify are very good."
"Worksoft has helped us position our company better because the product lets us show our value in terms of the benefits that we bring."
"We love the Capture 2.0 feature. It seems to work very well."
"It is expensive."
"Feature-wise and in terms of technical aspects, Mendix is excellent, but its pricing is steep."
"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."
"The code refactoring tools could be better, especially for applications running for years. It's not bad, but it could be smoother. Also, writing new widgets can be trickier than it should be for some people, but not if you're familiar with Mendix."
"There are not enough developers who are using Mendix. The knowledge base available online and in the market is not as rich as other competitors."
"There's no direct tech support."
"I would also like to see automatic adjustment to the Java Heap, whenever an application load becomes too much for the application. It could also use hot database replication."
"I struggle with solutions like Mendix in terms of creating enterprise solutions."
"We have had run ins with some bugs on Business Process Procedure (BPP) and Execution Manager."
"Worksoft Certify's tech support's response time could be improved."
"We ran into some issues with the version that we were on during the initial setup. We ran into a bug on one version, then they upgraded us to a new version, and we got hit with another bug. So, they had to put us in a beta. That was a little frustrating. However, besides the bugs that we ran into, the install was pretty straightforward."
"Better automation capability would be helpful."
"The overall speed and performance of this solution could be improved. In a future release, it would be useful to be able to do API testing."
"Worksoft Certify's support team should respond more promptly when we are stuck with certain issues and looking for a solution."
"The definitions for the objects need to be automated. They need to be recognized automatically by Worksoft Certify instead of changing them back and forth manually. This is also something that Worksoft is currently working on."
"I would like the GUI to be more user-friendly and intuitive. We want to be able to move assets from project to another project without having to be in the same project or the same folder structure."
