"OutSystems: A Rapid Development Platform with a Strong Community, however choose wisely "

  • By Financial Services

What do you like best about the product?
Nr 1 is of course the speed at which one can develop and share results with the business Nr 2 is the community around the platform, good service and forum next to the Forge which is great as well Nr 3 would be the evolution of the platform itself, being on the top of things (companies cannot keep up with the pace though)
What do you dislike about the product?
Main issue is the point at which OutSystems has to be used in an existence (legacy) IT landscape. It just is very hard to fit in OutSystems in an existing end-to-end process where other (older) technologies are deeply involved. Then the trouble it takes to migrate for example from O11 to ODC, it's just very time consuming Also, the licenses for the platform and the fact that you' re not totally flexible in how you build and maintain your apps is quite a scary thing. If OutSystems decides to do things differently, you cannot just opt out
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
OutSystems can help solving a wide variety of business cases. It's performance is well enough for almost all use cases and the adaptability is great. The best part is that the steps from business process to IT process are relatively easy and don't take much time, leaving room for iteration and communication with the business to make the customer experience better.
