We performed a comparison between GeneXus and Salesforce Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Mobile Development Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like that it's very compatible with other tools. The most important feature is getting the developer to focus on the project's business case. It's not about focusing on how I can command this or how I can develop a front end, or how I can work with the advantages. The developer should focus on the business case of the project. No need to focus on connecting the database to the server or connecting the server and the front end. The developer can concentrate on the views."
"I find the implementation process of GeneXus to be easy."
"The most valuable feature is that GeneXus works with several languages. It's possible to develop chatbots and other functionalities."
"GeneXus evolves with technology."
"The front-end features are the most valuable."
"This solution works extremely quickly in terms of enabling an application in a production environment."
"It is fast in creating systems and connects to the database quickly."
"With GeneXus, we can create logical representations of transactions in the form of objects."
"The solution is used to track our customers."
"Marketing and Sales Lead, Forecasting, Campaign management."
"It is an easy product to use and does great things for our company. It keeps track of all of our sales activity."
"One of the main features of the solution is it is flexible."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the CRM. Salesforce Platform comes with out-of-the-box capabilities."
"When compared to Siebel, the Salesforce Platform is easier to use."
"Salesforce's strongest feature is reporting especially. It's also a lot more usable than other platforms I've worked with. It has a great user experience, with the ability to filter and access information in real-time."
"What I like about the Salesforce Platform, in particular, its enterprise edition is that apart from its many features, you can have a wider view of the customers, a 360-degree view. I also enjoy managing opportunities in the Salesforce Platform a lot because it's easier and gives you a wider view, compared to HubSpot."
"The graphical interface could be improved. I also notice some performance problems on hardware that should be more than adequate. GeneXus uses a lot of RAM and other computer resources."
"It would be better if GeneXus had a wiki. The developer needs some experience to work with the tools. It would be better if they could improve the community. If we have some problem, I open a ticket that takes us to a board, and I have to describe my issue in detail. If the tools have a general community for us to explore with some videos or some articles, I think that that may help the developer."
"I told them to add something about Angular. They're already working on adding it."
"We would like to see more extensions and more user controls added to the front-end of this solution, in order to help developers manage the website."
"There are issues in integrating it with other solutions."
"GeneXus's user interface has room for improvement."
"It would be helpful to have additional assisted processing with training."
"GeneXus is a wonderful tool for the backend. It's the best in the world, but for the frontend, GeneXus needs to improve. There should be easier steps for managing various aspects, such as alerts and messages to show to the end-users."
"It would be better if they can add more from the pricing and functionality perspective. It is very expensive. I would be more than happy if they drop the prices. From the licensing perspective, if they can add more functionality, I would be more than happy."
"Salesforce Platform operates as a cloud system, and within our organization, numerous internal systems handle data processing. While real-time data retrieval is feasible through services, achieving real-time communication poses some challenges."
"There is always room for improvement. It can be hard to learn, but when you have somebody who is experienced in this, it is like anything else. It is like Excel, you'll never know everything about Excel, but there's somebody who would possibly know. I'm sure I don't know all of the ins and outs of Salesforce."
"Its documentation and price should be better."
"There needs to be more documentation."
"I think the search needs to be improved so as to allow for a broader keyword search."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and offer more customization."
"The solution's UI is horrible."
