Facilitates rapid integration and deployment while addressing database access limitations
What is our primary use case?
We automate a lot of processes with Mendix, primarily focusing on automation and robotic process automation.
What is most valuable?
The domain model of Mendix is highly valuable as it allows quick setup and public deployment. The framework structure, with its code and building blocks, makes it easy to build logic by dropping elements into place. Mendix's integration capabilities are impressive, allowing for rapid and on-the-fly integration of almost anything imaginable.
What needs improvement?
Access to the database is limited in Mendix's public cloud, preventing direct database interaction or inspection. Improvements in data grid, particularly for a global search capability when searching through associations, are necessary due to existing limitations.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with Mendix for two to three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I would rate Mendix's stability as a seven. I recently encountered an issue with deploying applications on the Mendix sandbox, which took a week to resolve. Aside from this, we typically do not face significant issues with stability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We are about to enter the scalability phase, but previously we did not face any scalability issues as our projects did not require scaling. With upcoming projects, scalability will be tested.
How are customer service and support?
The technical support from Mendix is very good. I would rate it as nine.
How would you rate customer service and support?
How was the initial setup?
The setup process for Mendix is straightforward and user-friendly. I can quickly create an app and start development.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Mendix is quite expensive, and its pricing model makes it inaccessible for startups. The app license costs between $13,000 to $14,000, which is prohibitive for startups. Mendix should consider adjusting its pricing strategy to penetrate the startup market. Startups are deterred by the high costs despite their interest in the capabilities of Mendix.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I also have experience with AWS and find it preferable in terms of data provisioning, which is not available in Mendix's public cloud. AWS is a more transparent option without the black-box nature of Mendix's public cloud.
What other advice do I have?
Mendix faces existential threats from advancements in AI that can create full-stack applications at a lower cost. This needs addressing to remain competitive. I would rate the overall solution a seven.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Hybrid Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
