Mendix Benefits

Sameer Verma - PeerSpot reviewer
Consulting Manager at Deloitte

The ability to reduce the code, and the development, has been a very drastic improvement over custom code. The ability to have these vast amounts of connectors, which Mendix provides, especially in the manufacturing space, is great. For example, with OPC UA protocols, I have not seen any other low-code provider. That's very niche to pull machine data. That shows how much R&D investment they have done to build some complex connectors to simplify the user need.

I can tell you how Mendix has improved my organization by discussing the projects with which I am already working. The old service portfolio is based on a Mendix workflow and system.

Business Development Manager & Project manager at EGALiT

We built our organization around its capability, so we saw the opportunity of Mendix. We saw how Mendix in the market at that time struggled with the right commercial model. So, we built our organization around the platform's capabilities. We have two business units:

  1. One unit does projects. That is the unit that does end-to-end projects for the customer. The customer, in this case, is the business who wants a cloud-based solution and doesn't care how it is done.
  2. The other service that we provide is in the Netherlands. Many customers who are adopting their own Mendix, low code teams. They need help and support with this. We provide, in a consulting services capacity, our experience to help them build their team. 

We do two things on this level. Many customers start with projects and end up building their own team. This is our progress as we see it right now in the market, at least in the Netherlands, as there is a huge demand for these type of services. It is actually more difficult to find qualified personnel than find customers at this point.

Technical Architect at Kyanon Digital

My team has ten developers, and for one solution, we require three to five developers.

Mendix is useful for various industries, such as retail, e-commerce, and banking. For example, we're currently using the solution for a payment app for retail. It can also be used to create a mobile banking app.

Mendix is a low-code platform, which means that it allows us to build applications quickly and with less coding. It also has various pre-built components and integrations, which can speed up the development process.

Furthermore, one of my team members has Mendix certification and uses it for marketing and sales purposes. The team is learning about how Mendix can be used for queries, which are currently at an intermediate level. Additionally, I have completed 55 queries in Mendix.

CEO / Owner at Aelion - Netherlands

It gave the organizations I worked for the ability to create far more complex applications with a smaller team and in a shorter time frame. When we brought in external auditors they even confirmed the fact that what we build would take at least 50% more resources to develop in for example Java or .Net. Also, the fact that we don't have to take care of the basics during development, means we can focus on the actual business process and how to make the product work for the business.

The main way in which this product has improved my organisations functions is the ability to promote agile methodology and rapid development. It also allows users see what has been developed quicker than writing physical code. This means it allows us to test out different scenarios with ease and also changing entities and attributes are easier than ever. Another way this system has helped is the ease of releasing the product we are developing on different platforms whether it be desktops, tablets or phones. Being built using bootstrap also helps with the responsiveness of the system.

We can deliver six times faster than working with regular third generation languages.

Also, the platform helps set up a proper software development architecture on an enterprise level.

"Security by design" is also a phrase for Mendix.

Associate at a financial services firm with 51-200 employees

During an implementation of a Rules Engine for Credit Risk and Loan Eligibility which integrates various Credit Bureaux data systems for online loan applications, we experienced some performance issues. We then broke out into four teams to find optimizations of which three teams were technical and one was business analysis. The team who came up with the best solution, was the business analysis team. Since they could understand the flow of logic in the microflows, they could reorganize certain calls and optimize the process to gain the few milliseconds we needed to bring the application inside it's non-functional performance requirements.

This example shows that something that used to be confined to hidden alleys of the IT department was solved by business people with knowledge of the business process : Mendix enables a frictionless interaction between the business and IT domains to produce integrated solutions rather than point optimisations.

Mendix has helped to dissolve the divide between “business” and “IT”, between business speak and technical jargon, between classical project management and disciplined agile delivery. It reduces friction to deliver projects iteratively and reduce time to market and helps change the organisational culture, if the culture is open to this. In short, Mendix has improved our ability to delight our customers.

Easy document generation saves a lot of time. The integrated security also saves a lot of time, especially when it comes to setting up user-roles and security. Finally, database updates work automatically. There is no need to write queries to update the database, once you make an update.

Since Mendix requires less deep technical knowledge, it allows more business and process minded developers to become really successful Mendix developers/consultants.

This allows for a different way of working in my organization, where there is no longer a gap between the business and technical oriented professionals.

Clients are at first amazed that product feedback gets realized in days while other with other software vendors, things only get realized after months or never at all. Bugs are solved most of the time the next day.

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. Full focus on the business case needs and not on implementation.

Speeds up the development by a factor of several times over regular development.

Associate(Java Developer) at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees

We were able to completely refactor middleware from SAP BPM to Mendix. This was done in a relatively short time and the product created a common language between developers and business analysts that facilitated the translation of business requirements, frequent validation, and/or modification to the technical solution. This actually reduced a few development cycles which gets crucial with short-term projects.

Often the business comes to the conclusion that it is not working as they had thought it would after they have seen a first version. In Mendix it is really easy to show this first version and to change it according to the business needs.
