IBM Domino: The Swiss army knife of application development platforms

  • November 29, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I can create highly functional, highly secure client/server workflow applications in a third of the time it takes my talented colleagues to create them in .NET. Domino development is by far the most rapid application development platform. IBM keeps innovating Domino to allow me to keep up with the evolving state of the art.
What do you dislike about the product?
Every software product has minor bugs but I wish IBM was faster at resolving them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Electronic forms approvals/tracking for HR, Engineering, Quality Control, ISO 9001.
- Web front-end for legacy databases.
- Automatically process invoices sent as email attachments.
- Automatically emails out reports as documents are scanned into a Document Imaging application.
- Corporate email, calendar & directory.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You just can't get more bang for your buck. I do recommend you get a second opinion about which IBM licenses to buy, and how to deploy in your organization, and which apps to develop first to be a quick hit. Find a consultant / mentor with 15+ years experience in Domino to get you off to a good start.

Domino - Best all round business app development & delivery toolset for the modern mobile age

  • November 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Comprehensive integrated RAD package for building modern apps for both desktop, mobile & cloud. Apps can be easily integrated to create fully functional business systems such as ERP, CRM, etc and can be linked to IBM Connections for a fully immersive on-line social experience, with the ability to access multiple back-end SQL databases and connect to IBM Watson for AI support. Domino servers can be distributed worldwide, and will automatically synchronise app data across all servers using built-in military grade encrypted communications. It is suitable for SMBs (low entry cost) as well as large enterprise installations.
What do you dislike about the product?
Needs better support for integration with MS-Office suite and PDF files. Needs more flexible printing functionality in native Notes client. Native Notes client is fully functional but does need some modernisation, but this is in development.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently building a fully integrated ERP/MRP system complete with Financials, Payroll, HR, Purchasing, CRM, Inventory Management, Estimating, Order Processing, Production Control, Shipping and Quality Management. Domino supports very fast application development, offers native support on mobile devices, on-premise and cloud environments, and supports fully distributed and replicated applications and servers, full email services and simple administration. Basically, Domino just runs and keeps on running. It is scale-able for SMBs to large enterprise environments. It even supports applications developed in the '90s unchanged!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Although IBM Domino is typically seen as a legacy (and outdated) platform, in fact it is surprisingly modern in its outlook and functionality. It supports NoSQL databases as standard, but can also be fully integrated with standard legacy SQL databases. It provides a comprehensive RAD environment that supports modern programming languages such as Java, JavaScript, HTML5, as well as the original LotusScript and @Formula languages. It is object based, has built-in enterprise level mail services and supports web services. It can be easily integrated with IBM Connections to provide industry leading Web 2.0 social networking services, and supports mobile and clound based deployments. The Notes client runs on Windows and Mac platforms, and Notes applications can run natively on the Apple iPad Pro.
