Find out what your peers are saying about OutSystems, Mendix, Salesforce and others in Mobile Development Platforms."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."
"We also use Mendix Enterprise Integration for complex business logic. It's a low-code platform, so we run Mendix in the Mendix Cloud."
"It is a brilliant solution."
"The pricing is very clear, with no hidden fees."
"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."
"I think that the workflow and automation features are quite good."
"There are free online learning and certifications if a user would like to learn more and better understand the solution."
"It is a development platform which assists in accelerating your developmental lifecycle. This is one of its most valuable features. This solution also offers a good set of components that are readily available."
"Scalability is one of the benefits that we have in using the product."
"The solution can scale."
"The dashboard provides pretty good clarity."
"Feature-wise, I like it since it allows you to integrate with multiple applications. There are available connectors that allow you to integrate."
"The entire SAP ecosystem is a valuable feature. It provides access to SAP S/4HANA, ACG systems, and their Fiori launchpad, making it easy to navigate between them. This makes the enterprise very accessible."
"Though I'm not a massive fan of the SAP Cloud Platform, it has good features, such as its integration with other SAP solutions. When integrating with SAP or even the SAP sister company SuccessFactors and other companies SAP has acquired, you also enjoy data features in the SAP Cloud Platform, such as role-based permissions and other characteristics you can import from SAP."
"The most valuable feature is the data synchronization, or the push and pull of the data."
"The ability to expand it whenever required has been great — it's very simple."
"You need experienced programmers and developers to understand this solution."
"While the documentation is good, the development box could be better."
"Mendix needs to think about itself offering machine learning and artificial intelligence."
"It is expensive."
"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."
"My understanding is that, if you are not using the free version, it is very expensive."
"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."
"Mendix is great for internal applications but not so great for a public-facing interface. It lacks a proper directory structure for public use. The URL will not change from page to page unless a deep link is created for each page. That makes it difficult to bookmark pages in the browser to view later on."
"The main problem is that there aren't any easy migrations from SAP PO to SAP CPI, so from process orchestration to cloud platform integration."
"I feel that SAP provides the tools, but after that, you are left on your own. It would be better if they provided more support throughout the usage of their solutions."
"They are still developing this product. It does not really have 100% of the necessary features available to properly service business clients"
"SAP Cloud Platform's installation is not straightforward. You need a person with knowledge to handle it."
"I would like for it to have integration to GitHub."
"The tool's UI is not very intuitive for cloud integration, so it needs research to understand its options and how it may work."
"What I would like to see improved is the learning curve."
"I can’t speak to features that may be missing."
