What do you like best about the product?
The way it does self-healing and change analysis is really fantastic. This is simply an enabler especially to people who are new in programming. No more problems on re-allocating resources as it is very easy to learn and reverse-engineer existing apps. Includes pre-built libraries/plug-ins and great looking templates addressing the usual UI/UX concerns. Has even an existing, growing and very active community. Most importantlly, it supports Multi-Tenancy!
What do you dislike about the product?
1. Needs clear breakdown of consumed units or objects (licensing coverage) per application which is very important in sizing up projects.
2. User instance ("Named Users") may have limits depending on the acquired license.
3. Does not support SVN-like version control yet. Maybe it's by design. But it's really a big plus to have.
4. Customizing UI can be very tough. But I'm pretty sure there's something there that will work one way or another.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been working on legacy SAP, Database and Web Services (API) integrations and I would say it's really simplified.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend this Platform to anyone who wanted to have a quick way of building Entrerprise-grade applications with less time and resources, or basically just to jump-start aspiring developers. If you're practising Agile Development, then this is the right one for you.

OutSystems experience

  • March 12, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using it as a tool to gain experience as a Beginner Consultant and, having used other full-stack platforms and technlogies, like the MEAN stack, I can say that I'm amazed at what the platform can do and it has been an amazing experience so far.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think that the Javascript integration and usage could be made a little bit more clear and intuitive, because sometimes, there are scenarios where its usage is very useful and it has been a bit difficult using it for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've mostly been solving problems related to back-office implementation of systems to manage products and services, such as a hotel booking management app and it has been a very rewarding experience.

Best experience ever with a development environment

What do you like best about the product?
There is not just one thing I like about the Outsystems Platform. I like the ease -of-use to build applications and the speed of deployment to production, The out-of-the-box Analytics to monitor the performance, the quality of the supportdesk and the active community.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that I don't like about the platform is the mystery around new versions. I would love to see a roadmap with a timeline for new functionalities and bugfixes. In relation to this I would also like to see from the Development Team which Ideas that are posted on the forum are put on the backlog and which will never be delivered.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like to simplify business processes via automation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Tryout the free Personal Edition and build a small application to see if it suits your needs.

Outsystems has met all the value promises made in the sales process

  • March 08, 2016

What do you like best about the product?
The speed and quality of the applications that our developers are able to produce in response to our business demands. In 18 months we have modernized our production suite of applications and enabled the Business to enter the "Cloud Age". We have leapfrogged our competitors.
In addition getting new developers onto to the platform, trained and productive takes approximately 3 weeks thanks to the online tutorials. The fact that the platform supports "native code" generation and scales using the standard MS Technology stack makes the services developed easy to manage with existing investments in resources. Its hybrid cloud capabilities has created new business opportunities.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much from a technical point of view. It would be nice if Outsystems was a bit more aggressive in their Marketing and sales.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main business problem we faced was that out technology was old and past it's sell by date. The result is that we could not match the agility that our Clients expected of us. We were creating new opportunities in the market but could not take advantage of them due to our aging application suite. We therefore need to find a way to rewrite our core applications in the shortest possible time and with the least amount of resources possible. In a way we were looking for a "silver bullet" . Although Outsystems is not a "silver bullet" it came the closest to being one.!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
1) Ensure your development team buy into a whole new way of developing
2) Prepare the business owners to be much more interactive with the development process
3) Re-think your project methodologies to do RAD( D= delivery)
4) Review the type of developer you employ. Able to do business analysis as well as develop.
