Outsystems a All In One Platform
As a consultant I use Outsystems Platform in many departments of my clients, such as a sales department, order management, parking systems, etc. So I think outsystems Platform resolves many business problems.
- Very rapid development
- Very simple in debugging problems
- The simplicity of service studio
- Being Agile
- When you have a web service with recursive structures, you have to go to integration studio to integrate that web service. It's boring and tiresome.

- It's easy to implement improvements to the developed applications.
- End-users are development partners through feedback possibilities.

OutSystems Review by ISB Smart Solutions
We are an OutSystems partner and reseller, but also a customer. In addition we provide development services to other OutSystems platform customers. For our internal use (across the company), we are able to replace paper processes and take processes mobile.
- Speed of development
- Automation of version control and deployment
- Error elimination using the TrueChange capabilities
- Current mobile offline functionality is difficult to implement, we are looking forward to the new release P10
OutSystems Platform makes it super easy to implement Web or Mobile applications. It's full of ready-to-use integrations in a very active community. The cloud options makes it available in seconds.
- Make a HTML5 responsive site in a blink of an eye, with no design,or high tech background needed.
- Very active community to support users and provide ready-to-use applications or integrations.
- Cloud options makes the applications always available.
- Native Apps.
- Native integrations.

Along with the tide - OutSystems
It was used in my previous organization. It was not used throughout the entire organization. It helped the organization to deliver the work in a fast manner and according to the changing needs of the client.
- Time to market for a product or a application is significantly less.
- Once the application is deployed on the production server, changes if any can be easily applied.
- The learning curve is low and there is no need to learn a new language or a tool every month.
- A good training program can help the new users. And bit of documentation too.

Rapid Application Development rocks on OutSystems
I use the platform for personal use and not for my organisation.
- User Interface
- Easy architecture
- 1 click deploy
- Built for the citizen developer
- Need to understand CSS to create themes
- No offline access
- No standard automated testing suite
It is being used in an insurance company by the Personal Lines department. The goal is to accelerate the process of creating quotes and issue policies in a faster way. At the same time, the sales agent can have an overview of the customer (how many products he owns, etc.).
- Adds value to business in short periods of time
- Environments managing is easy
- Faster deployments
- Licensing
- Deep level of customization demands code which is not maintainable
We use it to offer our customers great value. Whether it is a web app or a mobile one, we leverage our partnership with this company.
- Scaffolding apps
- Guiding developers with best practices
- Staying ahead of competition
- Multi language support in development
- Affordable prices
- Longer periods before recycling environments

OutSystems really is a rapid development platform
We are using Outsystems for implementing applications for our SaaS product for the utility sector. We started with a small team (4 persons) and are now ramping up to 12. In the end, we are going to use more teams to work with the new product. Our customers use the service for energy meter data management and analytics.
- Ease of creating and modifying user interfaces.
- Ease of managing database entities, business logic and refactoring them.
- Deploying the application can be done with one click.
- Managing complex data structures.

Take the next step with Outsystems
Outsystems at Schneider Electric is currently open for developers in IPO, which is the IT business function for SE. This is step one, where we want to enable our developers in IPO and empower them to deliver B2E apps with high speed. Going forward we plan to increase the scope to B2B and B2C solutions as well.
- How Outsystems manages the deployment using the LifeTime tool is quite amazing. Our web operations team has been empowered with the Lifetime tool. The visibility on different versions of the same code, dependencies etc., is very easy to manage.
- With Outsytems Now testing mobile apps on the fly has become very very efficient.
- Forge components allow developers to build something by picking reusables bricks from the public forums, which enables us go to market even faster.
- Mobile debugging is a bit of a pain today with outsystems as we need to go back to the logs everytime to check and troubleshoot.
- We still don't have an application dev IDE on Mac machines which leads to a situation where developers need to carry 2 systems (Mac and Windows).
We use OutSystems to build web and native mobile apps to empower our employees. All our employees now have mobile access to leave, claims and asset management apps and this helps them perform transactions easily and on the move.
- Speed of Development: The platform helps to reduce mundane work for developers and allows them to focus on business value, such as user experience, innovation and the like.
- TrueChange: realtime dependency analysis reduces errors especially when change requests are implemented.
- Ease of Development: Drag and drop with visual language levels the playing field in terms of developer skills.
- Cloud Support: As a PaaS, more flexibility can be provided. Instead, the cloud team is inflexible and provides few options for management.

OutSystems - an addictive low-code experience!
We use OutSystems as part of a drive towards digital transformation, replacing existing (mostly paper or spreadsheet-based) processes with ones that provide better governance and visibility to those process stakeholders. We are targeting operational processes first, and then moving into other areas, such as system integration tasks. OutSystems is very good at handling the orchestration of web service APIs. We intend to simplify our main sales to an invoicing process.
- Engaging prototyping experience with stakeholders.
- 1-Click Publish and TrueChange makes it easy to refactor a solution without making simple errors.
- Addictive solution engineering - if every problem looks like a nail, then it's a pretty good hammer!
- Simple handling of REST and SOAP web services.
- Requires good internet connectivity.
- Sometimes a little slow to respond.
- Intelligent typing can sometimes be a little too smart in a complex solution.
In my current client the platform is used across the whole organization, all the user interface of the business is made by an OutSystems application that supports all users from the organization to plan and manage their tasks.
- Fast Maintenance
- Easy to use
- User friendly
- Fast development
- Shipper
Deloitte is using OutSystems as one of its main site and application development tools with the purpose of delivering faster and better products to its clients in all types of markets.
- Quick development
- Integrations
- Data management tools
- Concurrent programing
- Java stack version is less stable
- Fairy new application development tool, and needs more time to mature

A little hard to grasp for a DevOps pro
OutSystems is used in creating a next-generation energy market SaaS solution. It is used in two development teams.
- Learning curve for actual process implementation is remarkably low.
- Integration to other systems is smooth ( e.g. developing a UI that uses Tableau works really well).
- It's particularly easy to extend OutSystems with your own .Net solutions.
- Licensing model does not allow an easy way to scale or rebuild your software stack in a public cloud environment.
- OutSystems' scalability model leaves a question on how OutSystems behaves under a heavily varying workload.
- OutSystems version control lacks support of branches, version comments, and version difference reviewing.
Our company Master Concept has helped customers to implement Outsystem and replace the existing Kony and IBM mobile development platform since customers like to deploy the low code system concept. Also, the customer needs mobile application development which Outsystem can provide. It's easy to manage and develop the life cycle.
- Low code
- Mobile development platform
- Life cycle management
- Pricing not feasible
- Lack of adoption
- No comprehensive API management

Rapid application development finally works in practice!
Outsystems is used by us for rapid application development to give us custom software that works according to our practices, rather than us having to work in a way that suits a particular software system. Some example systems include a budget tracking system and a calendar system. These allow us to keep control of our data rather than surrendering them to somewhere in the cloud!
- Very fast way to get prototype and proof of concept systems up and running
- Most custom features we might want in an application are pretty easy to add, but you can shell out to C# if needed
- Very easy roll-out of applications from dev to test to live
- The underlying SQL database can get pretty complicated if you keep changing data structure - sometimes we define the database ourselves to get better control over it
Outsytems is widely used in my organization I can't tell you what all, we are making with using outsystems, As it is confidential.
It supports the business very well, and the speed of development and speed of delivery is unexpected. You don't need more resources to work on a project. Overall this is a very good platform. Outsystems saves lots of time. Even in our modern world that wants to write a 1000 lines of code when your work is completing by just dragging and integrating nicely.

- The best example I can say is dealing with web services (REST/SOAP). if you write Nava or .net code for connecting a WSDL. But here we just need to provide A WSDL file that's all. Everything will be taken care by Outsystems.
- Another example of the way we design a UI in Outsystems is 100 times easier than writing HTML/bootstrap - you can easily integrate javascript/ JQuery.
- One more is about BPM. You can easily design your BPM.
Outsystems provides a platform where you can develop, manage and deploy web and mobile apps faster than with any other technology. With Outsystems our customers are now more efficient and they are able to handle business requirements and becoming an area of innovation that provides greater value to the business.
- Low-code developments
- Mobile developments
- The capacity of the platform
- The access to the tools is confusing
