Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are going to be using OutSystems to replace some of our legacy systems. The product will be replacing services hosted within our secure environment.

Pros and Cons

Simple - The product itself is simple to use with its low-code drag and drop interface.
Extensible - I hate systems that don't allow me to extend them as and when I need to. OutSystems lets me extend in whatever way I want to, which could be support for a foreign database, to custom C# to integrate something completely different.
Supported - The system is supported really, really well. there is a forum that is incredibly active, both the partners and OutSystems are responsive.

"The OutSystems way" - As a web designer and developer, I often feel that some of the components, and the way that some "web blocks" work could be improved.

Alternatives Considered

When evaluating new platforms, this was the only platform we looked at that was no/low-code.

Support Rating

The community is very active, and partners are more than willing to help.

If you have a layer of APIs that you can consume, or you are looking to create such a layer, this is a great platform to let you do something with those API's. If you're looking to use this as a content management system, or to host an information-only website, this product is overkill, unless you are planning to make a content management system, then OutSystems would be great for that.

So far so good
