We have used this tool for developing and managing the business needs of the automotive industry across the US and Canada. This is an awesome tool being perfect in the sense of usability. Graphical programming is easy to use and implement. As the category suggests, it is a low code platform, so can be very effective in terms of quick development and delivery. In short, it’s the perfect tool if you are following the agile methodology.

It's fast, fun, and it works
At my previous organization, it was used by almost the entire company with several different websites, each having from ten or twenty to hundreds of users. Some of the sites were made for convenience, some were business critical. I was the sole internal OutSystems developer at the company and only the OutSystems Platform allowed the speed and flexibility needed to keep up with the business requirements.
On a personal level, I developed a survey-like Facebook app for my master degree thesis because it was fast, easy and I was familiar and comfortable with the technology.

OutSystems, rethinking development
I am writing this as a developer who works daily with the OutSystems Platform as a business. The reason to write this review is the request from OutSystems, combined with the positive [experience] and the belief I have in it. Coming from all kinds of programming languages and a love for c-languages, convincing me to use it was not easy. But the advantages of using it are great - to be stuck in the extreme coding team :)
We use OutSystems as THE tool to implement solutions for our clients. It enables us to build solutions way faster and with more control. OutSystems delivers a complete software development platform. From development to production, it is all contained within the platform, enabling a fluent transition across the complete development cycle.
One major advantage is the model based development, which enables us to control the quality and versioning.
Sounds like an exotic software platform? It is not. It is just creating Microsoft.NET/ASP.Net/Java libraries and maintaining the Microsoft SQL Server/Oracle Server and webserver.

As a system integrator, we support several kinds of solutions for our customers. OutSystems is one of the platforms we use to build solutions for our customers. Sometimes we advise our customers on platforms to choose from, but most of the time the customers already have chosen a platform and ask us to help manage these platforms or the customer simply needs extra consultants to be able to manage the business demands. Applications that we have built support a variety of business needs for example sales support apps, automation of back-office processes or a meeting organizer with complex authorization issues.

The freedom to dream BIG again!
We used Outsystems Platform to replace all our legacy systems. We are also using Outsystems Platform to build new products and enhancements to existing products which we are bringing to the market. We are extending our systems to open up portals to all our service providers which will have the effect of relieving admin fatigue from our internal users. The portals also have the effect of consolidating all the data into a central repository so that we have better visibility across all our service providers.

Outsystems is used across the whole organization to help people with less technical knowledge to map their processes and offers a shortcut to have their own solutions implemented. In the other hand, the technical body have more time to dedicate to complex situations and address technical issues that have impact on many users and projects, like a framework or design patterns.

We use OutSystems as our main development tool. We used OutSystems to provide our clients with a cutting-edge employee benefits portal offering staff discounts and savings designed to help make the employee's money go further.

Development with the OutSystems Agile Platform
I'm currently using the OutSystems Platform for developing a company wide application for supporting all utility processes in the Dutch market at the moment. We are currently working on a way to implement processes for new customers, where one initial process will lead to more than one process for the type of customer we are dealing with and starting one or more concurrent processes.
