"Genexus ayuda invaluable en migración de proyectos de software"
What do you like best about GeneXus?

En 1999 conocí a Genexus y su poder en el desarrollo rápido de aplicaciones de bases de datos. en ese entonces teníamos una aplicación desarrollada en BBx (Business Basic) con base de datos propietaria, que no era Windows. Genexus nos ayudó considerablemente y muy rápido a migrar la aplicación a Visual Basic. Fué algo verdaderamente valioso, estar en la plataforma Windows y SQL Server.

What do you dislike about GeneXus?

De lo que siempre ha adolecido Genexus, es de una documentación amplia y detallada de cada una de sus funcionalidades, asi como ejemplos completos de las funcionalidades con alto contenido de abstracción.

What problems is GeneXus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Actualmente Genexus me ayuda en el mantenimiento y evolución tecnologica de nuestra aplicación. Aunque el proceso de pasar una aplicación de una plataforma a otra no es del todo automático, la verdad que la ayuda que da Genexus es poderosa.

"GeneXus cambio de enfoque de lo que es desarrollar aplicaciones"
What do you like best about GeneXus?

Lo que más me ha gustado de esta herramienta es la forma tan fácil de interactuar no necesitas ser de alguna carrera de tecnología , es cierto, que esta te ayudará a tener más idea y mucho más lógica para resolver los problemas de la actualidad pero no te limita a ir adquiriendo experiencia, el tiempo corto para tener una aplicación de pruebas ayuda a tener un modelo muy parecido al final y poder tener clientes con buenas expectativas y ofrecer etapas o versiones de la misma no limitando a que al tenerlo al 100% pueda ser útil sino que lo puedan ir alimentando y obviamente mejorando con las versiones, por lo tanto le veo un gran potencial de servicios y costos dado que este desarrollo puede irse mejorando con el paso del tiempo.

What do you dislike about GeneXus?

Pues un poco se batalla con el diseño pero en realidad como se gana tiempo con el desarrollo que es automatizado en ciertos aspectos puedes tener más concentración en esos detalles.

What problems is GeneXus solving and how is that benefiting you?

El tiempo de desarrolllo para mi el mejor beneficio, puedo competir con un gran equipo de desarrollo en otras plataformas o códigos nativos. loq ue lo hace rentable.

"Tecnología de vanguardia para el desarrollo de software"
What do you like best about GeneXus?

Conocí GeneXus en 1998, la promesa de impactar en el desarrollo de software fue real, a los pocos meses teníamos nuestra primera versión de nuestro software que hoy en día le provee a la empresa más del 80% de sus ingresos. En paralelo, la promesa de a prueba del futuro, también fue real, nuestro software evolucionó por diferentes lenguajes, bases de datos y plataformas, hasta convertirse en un servicio totalmente en la nube, bajo el modelo de comercialización SaaS. Estas son las razones principales por las cuales recomiendo GeneXus, que desde mi punto de vista es la mejor tecnología low code de vanguardia para el desarrollo de software.

What do you dislike about GeneXus?

La cantidad de generadores de lenguajes de programación podría ser una limitante, sin embargo, contempla los principales que dominan el mercado.

What problems is GeneXus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Resuelve el modelado y diseño de sistemas complejos, con GeneXus se potencian las habilidades de los Ingenieros de Software, reduciendo los costos de mantenimiento y aumentando la rentabilidad de la empresa.

"Genexus, the low code/no code platform every business should be considering."
What do you like best about GeneXus?

Genexus makes it easy for users to get started with a number of established application templates and an always helpful community of business users, MVPs, and support staff ready to assist when things get challenging.

What do you dislike about GeneXus?

The licensing model is somewhat complex and expensive, especially for smaller businesses and startups.

What problems is GeneXus solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a fintech startup, we needed a way to implement a revolutionary new product rapidly. We researched many tools, but none would afford us the ability to significantly reduce our time to market while increasing development productivity and not hiring costly developers with disparate skill-sets.

"Low code tool for creating business applications"
What do you like best about GeneXus?

Genexus provides tools for quickly building business applications, including predefined design systems, data model generators, business rules language. Applications can support complex business processes thanks to the built-in modeler compatible with BPMN 2.0. And what is unique to Genexus, rarely found in other Low-Code tools, is the ability to generate source code for Java and .Net environments. This allows applications to be run in on-premise or cloud-based (Google, AWS, Azure) environments.

What do you dislike about GeneXus?

Genexus allows generating web and mobile native applications, but the Genexus IDE requires installation on a PC or laptop. Currently, there is no available web version of IDE.

What problems is GeneXus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Speed up creating software applications for my clients. Genexus is licensed by the developer seat. The runtime does not require additional fees.

What do you like best about GeneXus?

It helps develop high-performance applications while leaving the analyst focused on the business and not the language itself. Genexus provide ways to build mobile applications, web-based, and everything else, in an integrated way, with freedom of UX/UI implementation and multiple databases.

What do you dislike about GeneXus?

It lacks custom UX/UI components, poorly updated and low comprehensive documentation, and the best extras are third-party paid customizations.
