We are a new customer and were very happy with the onboarding process and initial support. Developing in Outsystems is proving very valuable for us. We are using Outsystems mostly for integration purposes.
Sometimes you miss features and must hope that they will be implemented in a future version. This can sometimes be frustrating and can lead to the necessity of workarounds that er not alwyes the preferred solution
Mostly integration issues. We are not yet implementing any customer facing applications because we have specialized partners for that.
Ease of use and very steep learning curve. Fast development of applications. Great development cycle.
Rebuilding applications after major changes and refreshing dependencies.
Whera are rebuilding our major customer application with outsystems. Building this applications gives us a major step into the future.
I like that Outsystems improves deployment speed and standardizes code. This allows junior developers to produce.
New product means new learning curve. I would like to see a code export feature as well. That would allow us to quickly develop solutions that we could host in house.
We are allowing junior developers to produce solutions.
Low-code, easy to learn, fast to create a project
Code management (code versioning). Lack of CI/CD. Database identity is hard to trace the table name.
Fast to provide a business resolution.
It's easy to create a great looking website with out having prior experience. The templates look great and are easy to customize to your liking. The forge is useful in adding components that are not included in the base program.
The programming language was a shift from the usual. Some functions like list manipulation are not as robust in some situations. However, this can be overcome with use of plugins and custom C# integrations.
Speed of development, easy ui that looks good.
Able to develop mobile application and WEB application quickly with responsive
I don't dislike anything currently and compare to others Products
Taken sample application (FieldServiceMobile) and add additional implementation
Outsystems Mobile Platform was the best low code platform to develop mobile apps I used until now. It´s super easy implement an app and deploy system hide all complexity.
Only work on Windows Microsoft it is a limitation for apple lovers and the need to publish in the cloud to test client-side code it is a handicap for UI developers.
My team work with client-side code, we try to solve the gap of UI customization when work with low code. The Outsystems platform has a dependencies architecture feature that enable us to create great reusable UI patterns. For us, scale design is the biggest challenge and the platform it´s great for that.
Ease of use Facilidade de implementação de fluxos
More complex things are more difficult to implement

I´m making an application of human resources, more interesting is the facility of doing my work
The easy of deploying a complete and functional application.
Nothing realy important to coment on the dislike topic.
Build Enterprise-Grade aplications. Fast and reliable deployment.

Sometimea it's not very easy to custom the experience to the clients' needs
Creating a knowledge management platform
easiness of use and fast deliver for all devices.
some testing functionalities are missing and also a framework ofr unit testing
facilitate vendors to sell theire product
It has some premade components, that would take a lot of time implementing in other programing languages.
Introducing the clients to agile methodology.
Problems like Stock management. With OutSystems the applications are quickier developed and responsive to all the screen/ mobile formats.
The low code platform really helps integrating with legacy systems.
Working with the plugin system when using several cordova native plugins can be very tricky to work with.

The easy way of creating apps. And it's a visual tool
CSS need to be published every time it's changed
Improve relation between client and customer.
It's very intuitive and it's not needed to code everything from scratch. It's visual so it enables us to see what we're doing in a quick way.
The screen size of the platform should be adapted to high resolution screens (2K)
To develop fast solutions, and quickly adapt to the customers needs without spending much time.
I like that it is quite easy for people outside from the IT world to connect with it and to start a career in IT. It happened to me and I'm pretty happy with the decision that I've made by embracing the challenge of working with OutSystems.
At this moment i don't have complaints about OS. As i said before i am happy working with it.
It is much faster to deploy an application making the relationship between the company and its customers much more enjoyable. Right now i am solving problems regarding the migration of applications built with "classical" tools to OutSystems.
- Strongly connected with database - User friendliness - Rich widgets control - Timers, integration with other systems - CSS customization - XML generations
- Very less video tutorials are available to study the platform
- Internal business management web applications - Mortgage business management web applications
Easy to Use and making complex simple and developping problems and there's an community where you can search for answers.
The Price is right but i wish it was cheaper but it all depends on the scale you develop and there is a cloud where you can try and use it on a small scale and for personal use.
- Faster development - Easier to monitor for errors - Easy to Admin
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.
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.
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.
OutSystems is easy to use and easy to integrate.
There should be a preview window befor publishing.
OutSystems help me build small applications.
Outsystems is a very complete and robust solution to low code creation. It is simple to learn, has a unified deployment sequence, connects well to APIs and external DBs.
Their licensing model has been inconsistent, and has increased in price 45% every 2-3 years, which to us has become very hard to justify.
We create a myriad of internal tools that help our company's department work together. Outsytems makes this easy by having Single Sign on and persistent login options to create intranet/portal apps.
The speed and quality of the applications that I can produce per our business demands. We can then leapfrog our competitors. Also, the BTP is an excellent asset in encouraging the automation of workflows.
Limited community + not easy to integrate third parties services (such as Google sheets, Apple Login, etc..) Moreover, regarding databases, it should be more open to other kind of DB and DBMS
1- Rapid productivity throughout the application lifecycle: You create your apps and integrate them in weeks or less, not months. 2- Speed and code: Developing with a visual model while retaining complete flexibility to integrate custom code enables extensibility, efficiency, and accelerated development. 3- Multexperience development: Develop an application that can run on any device or platform. Risks, development time and costs are significantly reduced with error-free, automated deployments. 4- Agile oriented
Low code facility & best IDE for Layout. love to create a PWA application without any extra efforts. and am impressed with real-time monitoring without any yarn & NPA command.
So many plugin dependencies and complicated theme systems according to me. Limitation in UI section. Sometimes SCSS/SASS not work. need to improve it's Modeling structure
The first is the search facility I love to easily search or page-wise search. Lots of plugins like tabs & timelines easy to update the design.Time management and easy-to-upload option.
Readily available widgets, and easy access
Time taken to publish, when sometimes there is good network too
Working on updates make a very good usage in the community
The easiness and smooth experience in. developing with Servie. Studio
The Online Proctor checking system, depending on the agent of the day can result in an annnoying experience
The speed of development of internal application
