Overall Satisfaction with OutSystems

The platform enables innovation and speeding up your software delivery. It can integrate with everything, enables you to create great UX from scratch or by accelerators (like Experience Builder). It is scalable, performant and has built-in security. The platform is open to integrate with regarding its services like deployments and analytics, so no need to ditch existing processes/apps that already have deployments in scope (like Jenkins).
AI assisted development can help speed up new developers.
Pretty much everything is documented and easily accessible and OutSystems offers a lot of online training video materials which is well curated and organised.
With OutSystems driving innovation to bring disrupting and enabling cost reductions and increase user engagement by more and better UX applications.
  • Drive innovation
  • Rapid great UX App development
  • Integrates with everything
  • Performant and scalable
  • Your goto modern application development environment
  • Going so fast the backlog dries up :)
  • macOS support for Service Studio and Integration Studio (although that will be there soon)
  • Great UX saves the user time (direct costs) and frustations (indirect costs)
  • Business value gets met early on and promotes further adoption and helps cost reductions in general
Where Mendix looks nice, but mobile application have runtime interpreters, it makes maintaining multiple application and managing them very hard.
Thinkwise is a nice ERP platform, but cannot be compared to OutSystems because they are miles apart. The developer experience is a nightmare and hard to get used to. The single integrated blueprint feels like a monolitic.
Betty Blocks attemps to go for no-code and helps with all kinds of templates. Going for specialisations is a pain and the amount of technical knowledge you need to have f.e. on data types and expressions make it confusion. Application lifecycle management is a pain.
