Overall Satisfaction 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).
  • Quite positive in terms of reducing the application run costs.
  • With a great low code platform, it also enables us go to market faster.
Mendix is a great platform, but [when considering] the platform capabilities when compared to Outsystems (and when you add to the people aspect of Outsystems), Outsystems comes out a distinct winner.
Outsystems is definitely well suited for a workflow based application and on the contrary for an application demanding a CMS (content management system), not so much. BPM allows developers to deliver applications which are work flow based at great speed.
