Overall Satisfaction with OutSystems

OutSystems is being used to develop internal applications for HR & Appraisals. We are also developing software for our customers in the energy sector. The problem we are trying to address is to migrate applications in older technologies to enterprise web apps and mobile apps using the OutSystems low code platform.
  • Extremely fast to prototype ideas.
  • Develop beautiful user experiences with very little efforts.
  • Integrate very well with legacy applications.
  • The licensing model is complicated.
  • Developer community in our region is limited.
  • More UI widgets for mobile.
  • Positive : Time to market
  • Positive: Maintenance costs well under budget
  • Negative: Availability of skilled resources in our geography
Did not find any real alternatives for a model driven enterprise web and mobile app development that also provides entire end to end development, deployment and maintenance platform where most of the development is done using a visual stack.
More appropriate for enterprise web & mobile apps with offline capabilities and also integrating to third-party systems like SAP, Salesforce, Dynamics CRM etc. Applications that have frequent changes from the business are also best suited to be modeled using OutSystems platform.

OutSystems platform is not that well suited for gaming kinds of applications, augmented reality apps, or intensive 3D Graphics kinds of apps.
