Find out what your peers are saying about OutSystems, Mendix, Salesforce and others in Mobile Development Platforms."Oracle Autonomous Mobile Cloud Service helps us to deliver the application much more quickly, as it comes with built-in platform APIs for storage, push notifications, analytics, etc."
"Cross-platform development saves time and provides consistencies."
"Test Cloud, Calabash, SpecFlow, and Xamarin.UITest are the features which can’t be ignored because just writing code doesn’t mean your app will run flawlessly. You need to test your app on each possible device and configuration, which you can do easily."
"Xamarin.Forms exposes a complete cross-platform UI toolkit for .NET developers. The advantage is that a single team can target multiple platforms (Android, iOS, and Windows) on a shared C# codebase."
"The platform is easy to learn as many tutorials are available on YouTube."
"It brings about good code sharing strategies, which bring down cost and maintenance efforts."
"The technical support is very good and it's close to native."
"For me, developing apps for iOS and Android is a dream came true, without migrating to Objective-C or Java. Xamarin enables me to do so."
"The ability to share a platform-agnostic common core, or business logic, enables a mobile developer to write code for all targeted mobile platforms, independent of the individual developer's specialization in iOS, Android, or Windows. This helps not only during development but also enables easier maintenance of deployed apps, since bug fixes or feature additions can be often made in the platform-agnostic layer."
"One of the key areas in which MCS needs improvement is documentation. New features, like Zero Footprint SSO, need better documentation with detailed integration steps."
"There are compatibility issues between versions of various Xamarin components."
"The worst build issue concerns are the caching process MSBuild uses to reduce the build time."
"The major I see with Xamarin right now is that there is no visual editor"
"The debugging functionality could be improved in Xamarin Platform because sometimes it takes very long to move through the stages of setting up the application build to the final deployment on a mobile app that resides in a physical device."
"The application platform could be improved."
"The performance needs improvement, especially the dev tools, and also the ultimate output of the mobile applications."
"We have noticed that there have been stability-based performance issues with this product, which need to be improved."
"It would be better if they offered more certifications. They offer a number of certifications for Azure but none for Xamarin. This is something that could be provided for developers to show off their competency. Technical support could be better."
