Although we are not a startup and 8BASE allows our backend to be production-ready instantly and thus better support and management of our hardware and scale are automatically progressive with our business. It leaves us more time for hardware development. Recommending to consider acquiring both for all types of companies.

WaveMaker is a great platform for enterprise and SME's because it can save a lot on resources and time. The price is very low compared to the other competitors of WaveMaker and the best thing about WaveMaker is its no lock-in policy, you can always download the code and work on other IDEs. Overall an amazing platform.

I have tested Android Studio, but I needed a complete IDE with commercial support, a team of competent people which can give me solutions in case of issues, and a tool easy to use, so I can concentrate on my projects. I am satisfied to date, starting in 2010 when I implemented on UNIX servers the applications compiled with Free WaveMaker (at that year).
