Review Source GU Grayson U. Senior Application Engineer Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "OutSystems makes life better for tech and business teams" November 6, 2018 5.0 Pros OutSystems truly does live up to the promise of 10x development. The cost of the platform is offset completely by freeing up developers to provide vastly more value for every minute spent working on projects. Perhaps not obviously, it also improves the quality of products significantly. Developers get time back to actually work with customers in the target markets and operate on feedback. Divisions and companies can become more agile and keep up with an ever changing world. Cons There are some limitations with collaboration amongst teams. Because the platform uses a modeling language which exists in three dimensions, typical version control features like branching, merging, and pull requests do not currently exist. This issue can be overcome by changing the way you organize your teams and how they do work.

The cost to make a change to an application during development increases exponentially with time, complexity and versions.

Cons The only con I have is really the Service Studio. The team behind Service Studio should focus on stabilizing it. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Sr. Consultant - Office365 / SharePoint / Azure / GCP Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A great new platform with great opportunities" March 13, 2019 5.0 We are a complete Microsoft tech stack across the enterprise. We wanted to move out of InfoPath for forms and business process creation. So, we implemented Outsystems Cloud. Creation of forms is pretty quick with a decent looking interface with hardly anything to code (well unless you have your own custom business layer / logic). Connects pretty well with our on premise databases. Performance although while handling huge amounts of data is a concern to us as we immediately see the slowness. But will recommend it to others. Pros \- Easy to use - Easy to package and deploy - Hardly any downtime during the deployments - Good looking UI Cons \- Performance when handling huge amount of data Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Senior Applications Specialist Public Safety Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Outsystems Cohesive Ecosystem" September 25, 2018 5.0 Pros Outsystems allows a great level integration into the SDLC process.
