"What I like best about Mendix is that it's leading the way for low-code, no-code platforms compared to other solutions in the market."
"It is low code, where the developers can still develop in Java. That to us is very appealing."
"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."
"They are leading in the smart manufacturing, and connectivity space."
"I think that the workflow and automation features are quite good."
"The most valuable features of Mendix are the drag and drop functions, the data entities, domain models, and all the related features."
"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."
"Some months ago, we started using Power BI embedded, which helped optimize the number of licenses for our company."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the integration between all of the components in Azure."
"Data analytics is one of the efficient features as well."

"Microsoft Azure is flexible and the performance is great."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure is that it is easy to use."
"Microsoft Azure is scalable."
"One area for improvement is its integration capabilities. Creating a pluggable widget or integrating it with other systems is challenging. In terms of features, it would be great to see advancements such as AI services and the integration of third-party services. Additionally, connecting external devices to the application requires multiple steps. Improving this will make it easier for the developers."
"There should be more integration with engineering applications and tighter integration for user authentication, such as single sign-on, etc. They have some of that. It just could be stronger."
"We'd like to be able to write in C Sharp to develop code for Mendix."
"What is lacking is the support of higher level modeling features, like the modeling you do is relatively low level, yet it is still close to programming. We would like to see a more business-oriented modeling environment, like BPMN."

"Mendix is slightly less scalable than I'd like."
"There is always a layer of custom code required."

"Ease of use could be improved."
"They are a bit closed on the customization side. If they open the customization then it will be very good."
"I would like to see improved migration tools. It is improving week by week. They just need to make sure that they keep up with the new functionality provided in other clouds."
"There are many bugs in the solutions and we already have a ticket to Microsoft. Their content team is working on that."
"The management portal can be confusing sometimes. We have difficulty navigating the menus because the terminology is unclear, especially when referring to the content or actionable items."
"Potential improvements to the price calculator tool"
