"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."
"You can scale the solution."
"Enables us to rapidly create a complex application. We are also able to customize features that stakeholders in the corporation want to see, something that could not be done with other software. Our workflows and processes have evolved and improved. The fast iterations allow us to be nimble, get feedback from users, and do rapid updates."
"It's amazing that you can build web apps and mobile (hybrid) apps with one code base in a few clicks. It's a full continuous integration environment."
"They are leading in the smart manufacturing, and connectivity space."
"The features that I have found most valuable with Mendix are its business process management and its minimal low code, both from an interface perspective and from a process perspective."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution's stability is fine. There are no issues with Salesforce's stability."
"I like the reports and the dashboards. Since I'm a managing partner, I use the reports and dashboards to understand my team's contact management, opportunity management, and account management activities. We use Pardot for marketing campaigns."
"The entire solution is very customizable and you are able to add many functionalities."
"There are no major performance issues in the solution."
"he solution has improved over the years and the inputting of opportunity information is done a lot better and the GUI is good. The ability to customize dashboards and other elements was useful, we were able to move things around, for example, the forecasts. Most of the cells and input places were set, but we can customize the view and what we were looking at, such as on a daily, or weekly basis."
"Intuitive to work with and the overall fundamental of the platform is very strong."
"It is very modular in approach. It is very light, and it can be used on various devices. It could be used on an Android phone or a laptop, which makes it good for the sales team on the road."
"The stability has been great."
"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."
"There is always a layer of custom code required."
"A constraint of Mendix is that you have to look for the required plugins which takes up development time. There are a limited number of Mendix experts in the market."
"Overall, integration with the enterprise ecosystem needs improvement."
"One thing I would like to improve is the support system offered by Mendix. It can sometimes take a while to get the help I need when I'm using Mendix."
"There needs to be an increase in the number of the UI components."
"Mendix needs to think about itself offering machine learning and artificial intelligence."
"We'd like to be able to write in C Sharp to develop code for Mendix."
"It is quite expensive. It has gotten to that point where it is a lot more pricey. It has kind of got its own proprietary language for development. It is probably never going to change, but if it had a more market language for development, it would be easier to find developers. They come at a premium cost, so it is expensive."
"An improved UX may be helpful in the solution's next release."
"The initial setup process was a complex thing to do because four different organizations were working together."
"Salesforce also did not integrate well with some of the other systems that we had."
"What could be improved in the Salesforce Platform is the price. The platform is too expensive. The implementation time for the platform is also longer than expected, so that's another area for improvement."
"The solution offers upgrades at a slower pace. The solution needs to keep up with competitors."
"A company needs to carefully consider how they set up Salesforce in order to ensure it benefits them."
"The back end really isn't user-friendly at all."
