### "OutSystems: Great Off-the-Shelf Functionality, Difficult Integration"

September 19, 2018

5.0

I'm not currently using OutSystems. Originally, I planned to develop an enterprise-level platform, but the unique functionality I was trying to build was too difficult for me to figure out, and the help wasn't that helpful. Eventually, I gave up on it and went back to building a custom package in C# (Visual Studio).

Pros

I really like the OutSystems IDE. The developers have made it look great and it's pretty stable. I love how easy it is to set up the data structure then add basic pages. I really liked the training paths offered on the OutSystems website.

Cons

Low code is sometimes code for difficult-to-extend. I evaluated more than a dozen different PaaS companies in an effort to build a multi-tenant web-based application. I started to get the feeling that most of them catered to the insurance industry. While the out-of-the-box features can be very useful (albeit somewhat difficult to implement for a newcomer) extending the functionality of the platform is a nightmare. Also, while I really liked the training paths offered, the content tended to run a few versions behind. Also, they don't have great training videos on the more complex features. You get good (though dated) training on core functionality and you're left to your own devices on more complex methods.

### "Best AI enables application development software"

July 10, 2022

4.0

Excellent piece of software with a bunch of features. Although have lack integration with other apps, but could be useful anyway due to its all other rest features.

Pros

It is an advanced Ai enables software development tool. It is a full-stack platform for software development. Can build any software quickly because of Artificial Intelligence.

Cons

Comparatively less number of developer-based users. They are expensive and need to be available online always to work on them.

### "Outsystems Changed My Life"

March 15, 2016

5.0

As a Risk Manager I was always asked to provide high quality data to the mangement in order to get the right decision at the right time. What about if instead of giving tons of excel file You create a complete webapp solution very quickly ? That's what happened in Banor since the adoption of Outsystems some years ago. We installed the platform 5.1 and we are now using the rel. 9 and almost every colleague in our company is now using an application done with oustystems : Risk management, Middle Office, Client Management and we have just released a public Customer Portal. It's great.

Pros

Easy to use, almost no programming language but only drag and drop, easy integration with our Oracle Database.

### "OutSystems - Great developer opportunity"

October 29, 2019

5.0

Pros

OutSystems is Low-Code, the best thing about this is that it enables people with less coding experience to be able to develop without any difficulties of writing the whole code by themselves. Instead it allows you to build logic and see your development in action.

Cons

OutSystems is a great tool but I feel that the Code merge is quite troublesome and we suffer often when working on the same component and the apps built with OutSystems are sometimes slow.

### "Why didn't I started with LowCode platform OutSystems earlier?"

October 13, 2018

5.0

The customers for which we deliver projects are from many different industries, we build solutions for field service companies, insurance companies, pension administrators, business consulting companies, etc.

Pros

The speed in which we can deliver web and mobile applications for our customer, and the developer experience, where most repetitive work is taken care of by OutSystems. Also the fact that it is a complete platform with all the DevOps build in is great! Last but not least the OutSystems community is a very active community of professionals, help is always available very promptly why you get stuck.

Cons

Debugging capabilities not (yet) up to par with traditional development tools like Visual Studio, especially the ability to change values on the fly and to alter execution path. Then again visual debugging mobile application in an iPhone or iPad from my Windows developer laptop is amazing!

### "The Low-Code System"

October 30, 2019

5.0

Very good, I've never seen a developers tool which allowed a new user to start developing so quickly and beneficially to active and new projects.

Pros

The excellent learning curve and smooth experience with which you can quickly learn the basics and start developing almost immediately. The clean interface and avid promotion of the use of a 4 layer architecture makes it very easy to read and understand what your peers have done.

Cons

The separation of web and mobile apps, I would prefer to see them more as a whole which should be coming with the new Reactive Web. Though keep in mind that you can link the two as is.

### "Create LowCode apps with ease"

June 10, 2023

4.0

Pros

OutSystems helps our team develop Low Code applications using simple logic statements and allows developers to add great UI to the frontend.

Cons

The refresh time if a user does not use the application for a few minutes, which leads to the data being reset.

### "Never run out of notes..."

October 29, 2019

5.0

Very positive. Technical support is great. The product feels polished and well thought through. Even months into using it I am finding pleasant surprises in the UI. It feels industrial quality and very solid.

Pros

Unlike other low code platforms OutSystems has all the functionality you need to complete any task you need. If it can be done in software then the likelihood is you can do it in OutSystems. Other platforms are a bit like a child's piano, where you play a good tune but then run out of notes on the keyboard. With OutSystems it has all the functionality you need and you can extend however you want

Cons

No much to dislike. Didn't like the odd licencing agreement with Application Objects

Reason for choosing OutSystems

As mentioned above, OutSystems made the other products feel like toys which were ok until you wanted to do something a bit more stretching.

March 14, 2016

4.0

We have started using OS around 2 year back and so far we have developed and delivered many small and big projects using this.We observe a great improvement in productivity with same resources we used to work with .Automated 1-click deployment and roll-back also increase productivity and reduce the deployment effort and errors. Now we have a big team of Outsystems developers and looking forward to make ourself more confident and Agile.

Pros

### "Next Level Software Development"

October 6, 2016

4.0

As an experienced programmer I had some trouble to make my life easier. Trained to use code I can create anything. But as I got used to OutSystems, I cannot think of an easier way to create solutions for business problems. It reduced the time spent on a lot of things, leaving time in projects for the new next thing to implement:) Beside that, the model driven development ensures code quality and control. Combined with the excellent usage of LifeTime, going from development, testing, acceptance and production is a breeze. And when it does give some problems, a roll back is just as easy.

Pros

\- Speed - Quality - Flexibility - Business Processing Tools

Cons

\- Rethink software development - Loosing control of the underlying technical things - SQL is managed by the system, so tuning and in depth control is harder

### "Great Software for Apps Building and Development"

February 24, 2023

5.0

Outsystems is a powerful, yet easy-to-use, software application that aids in managing business operations for enterprises. I would highly recommend Outsystems Program to medium and large enterprises to effectively manage their workflow to fit their specific needs.

Pros

As a cloud based program, Outsystems is definitely simple and easy to access from any location. It is relatively simple, and easy to use by anyone. It is good for businesses that need to manage process such as order processing, sales and marketing.

Cons

The pricing of the program is quite high that I hope the developers and tech team would consider reviewing.
