Find out what your peers are saying about OutSystems, Mendix, Salesforce and others in Mobile Development Platforms."Enables me to use the same web technology to develop cross-platform native apps. The cloud-based one-click app build system is a valuable feature as well."
"Reduces the manual labor in compiling and deploying applications and generating procedural code (by reducing development bureaucracy/processes, resulting in real gains). The LifeTime Server approach, requiring just a few steps to publish applications in production environments, is fantastic."
"I like the mobile features the most, and there are also various features around the portal we created that I enjoy."
"One thing I like about OutSystems is that there's no lock-in. You can keep running your applications because it's on .NET and hosted centrally. That's one of the advantages I see there in terms of not having an IT strategy that has a dependency on a particular platform."
"The most valuable feature of OutSystems with discipline and the development processes. Instead of each developer doing tasks on their own with their own approach, et cetera, the solution would help bring some organization to the development process."
"It provides for faster development and better software releases."
"In terms of user support and community engagement, I rate the tool a ten out of ten."
"We can do the validation before calling the API."
"You can go huge - so it is definitely a scalable solution."
"Scalability is not so good if you have a complex UX."
"It would be awesome if they would work on improving the speed of the app building process."
"The initial setup is a little difficult."
"There is room for improvement in technical support."
"Mobile apps need improvement."
"It is hard to find the logic in OutSystems. From an improvement perspective, I want to be able to properly use logic in OutSystems."
"There are many tutorials available but they are very basic and good for learning the platform. To develop an enterprise-grade application, advanced tutorials need to be developed to help IT professionals design/develop high-quality/performance applications."
"One of the biggest areas for improvement is that every time an existing data element is modified, it creates a new data element. It doesn't really modify that particular data element. So, a user has to follow an extra step of removing the existing data element and bringing in the new and modified data element that is being added, which sort of goes into negative productivity."
"The new version could be improved."
"Writing custom code still needs to be done via Integration Studio. This might have been added to the IDE."
