What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Outsystems is really helping down in cutting the development time.
OutSytems also allows people with little knowledge to develop without help from professionals so you might lose some projects that you won’t enjoy for being so basic. That is good.
We are meeting the client expectations!

Point and click development makes it easy and quick to create both web and mobile applications. You can explore and learn using the personal environment. They've provided courses online that are very helpful and easy to understand.

Environment is dependent on the servers, and only OutSystems personnel can reset/fix it. My project got delayed by 2 days because of this downtime.

The time it takes to develop a web application is significantly cut down. You can create more web apps in OutSystems in the time it takes to create 1 java-based/angular-based web app.

Their courses online cover the basics. You might have to explore or look at forums to help you in more complicated designs/solutions.
Application Development Made Easy
What do you like best about the product?
Outsystems has a lot of what they call "accelerators" which are automatically generated when you are developing your applications,which is an excellent feature as it greatly reduces the development time needed to finish your application, be it a web based application or a mobile application.
Outsystems also has a great way of integrating plugins into your applications as it provides thousands of API's or plugins available at the forge for referencing to the applications that you will be developing.
There is also a great online community in which you can post questions or search for questions that may already have an answer.
The outsystems support team is also great in responding to any issues or concerns you may have even for trial/personal accounts which are provided for free.

What do you dislike about the product?
Since Outsystems sends that application that you are using to the server for compiling to native code, i fear that i would not be able to work as efficiently as i wanted to, especially in the event of a network downtime, where it could mean that i would need to wait for the network to come back online before i can potentially resume working.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Outsystems was chosen as a platform to rewrite a legacy product developed over 30 years and bring it into the cloud. It has been a really good choice for an organisation that had no web or cloud experience and has helped avoid many of the basic mistakes that could otherwise have been made. Whist there are some limitations on flexibility and price the benefits and speed to market far out way these.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don’t assume that because the development is easy that you will have an easy path into the app stores. You still need to comply with all the app store restrictions.
