"It is stable."
"There is a free version of the solution you can use."
"The most valuable features are the integration and UI customization."
"It is low code, where the developers can still develop in Java. That to us is very appealing."
"When our clients automate the KYC and onboarding processes, they can reduce their manual force and then deploy them in much better tasks rather than the mundane activities of selecting forms and gathering information."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its quick setup. Nowhere else you can create a good-looking application this quick. It's a fairly robust system."
"It cuts down the time taken for coding. Earlier it used take for us four hours to do a particular code. Now this can be done in less than 30 minutes. That's the kind of productivity gains you can get."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"The solution has very helpful technical support."
"It is a stable product."
"The interface is quite simple and easy to use, even for beginners."
"The product helps you to build faster."
"We'd like to be able to write in C Sharp to develop code for Mendix."
"It is expensive."
"There's no direct tech support."
"There are not enough developers who are using Mendix. The knowledge base available online and in the market is not as rich as other competitors."
"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."
"While the documentation is good, the development box could be better."
"I struggle with solutions like Mendix in terms of creating enterprise solutions."
"It needs to provide an overview of model versioning control for the sake of the review process; better SCRUM board; an overview of model changes from the repository through Sprintr (SCRUM board). Also, a choice between versioning control system would be nice."
"Pega Cloud early adoption and use for cross enterprise capability was new to many. The early adoption meant version 2.0 of their cloud service may require refactoring and redesign of some services."
"There are some UX shortcomings within the solution. However, it's my understanding that they have addressed them and in the next three months they will come out with a new updated version. They will be moving away from HTML5."
"Currently, there isn't any feature I want to be added in the next release of Pega BPM because Pega always adds new features that my team welcomes and looks forward to learning. One area for improvement in the solution is the long learning curve, but after that, you'll find Pega BPM easy to use."
"Its implementation in the public sector was a bit complex."
"The unit testing needs to improve, as well as the user interface."
"They are currently spending some time on improving the product with respect to machine learning, especially related to robotic automation. They probably could be a little more adept on that area would help."

"The solution could be more scalable."
