Mendix excels in scenarios involving Business Process Automation, making it a strong choice for applications requiring workflow automation, including processes like request approvals, document management, and other business workflows.Conversely, Mendix may be less suitable for projects that demand highly customized solutions with extensive custom coding. Its primary focus on low-code development may not align well with the requirements of projects that heavily rely on intricate and specialized coding.

I highly recommend its usage in Teams meetings to prepare a session transcript, meeting minutes,
next steps and recognize speech by person. Also within the meeting recording, there is separation between the people talking at the time. The Copilot image creation is very accurate and useful to
customize my PowerPoint presentations and other documents

Pros
Siemens AG
  • We're able to really easily develop different views that are very specific to a customer's needs or customer's different types of user needs. So for example, the production managers can have a certain view that's relevant to them and then certain line managers can have views that are specific to them that allow them to run different scenarios which they define. So it allows us to easily build customized apps for each different type of user.

  • Good analysis of the ticket system at the service desk, so that this can be anticipated properly
  • For the management of IT environments, quick examples of scripting for desired solutions
  • For consultants and managers, they co-pilot a technical report into language understandable to a non-technical client, including a visual summary.

Cons
Siemens AG
  • Earlier versions lacked in UI/Ux. This is still improving.
  • Since everyone and anyone can create custom add ons (widgets), Mendix could improve their quality checks (but not as rigid as eg Apple).
  • Upgradeability used to be somewhat of an issue. Version 7 looks to be handling this better than previous versions.

  • The quality of image generation in Microsoft Copilot could be improved. Compared to other AI platforms, Copilot's images often fall short in quality and frequently contain typos.
  • When generating agents and chatbots, Microsoft Copilot currently doesn't appear to support file download functionality.
  • The email reply function is useful, but the responses can sometimes be overly elaborate. It would be helpful to have more options for adjusting the tone.

it is nearly perfect and it’s usability one of the main factors and contributing to the score is how versatile this tool is. it is vastly usable in a multitude of circumstances, and has a few limitations, but overall this product works well for what it is intended. It is very helpful for some otherwise time consuming tasks.

Response times are quick and you will get updates regularly about the status of your request. Even with very technical questions they have specialists that can help you with your problems it will give you an answer or help you with a work around.

Mendix would be my preferred system all the way. The system is designed for these kinds of works. I've worked with WP and DNN but they should be used just for websites. To create an app for a business value, I would suggest Mendix. Also, the offline capabilities of Mendix have greatly improved since the deployment of Mendix 7.13.

I think It lost the race for now. I don't think Microsoft will keep investing on it since we have better tools outside their environment. In my opinion, Microsoft Copilot is not even in the benchmark tools and in the race for AGI. I think Microsoft is way behind and Microsoft Copilot suffered the lack of investment like the one made by its competitors.

Return on Investment
Siemens AG
  • It helps to speed up application development because of its low code by the fact that it's low code. It allows professional developers to focus more on specialized application development rather than the more routine application development that business IT and super users can do for themselves with some coaching from the IT department. So it's just allowing the more specialist professional developers.net, for example, Java in our organization to focus on more complex engineering application developments.
