Senior Mendix Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Mendix : An Unsung Hero" April 21, 2025 4.0 Overall it has been a great experience working with Mendix, especially in the area of integrating it with Snowflake platform. Pros A single cloud platform which works as PaaS, IaaS and on- prem, allowing to build PWA via low code or no code approach. Cons Not having CDN or in memory cache is the biggest drawback as for every UI action Mendix needs to call the Runtime via XAS Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Creative Head Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Experience" March 5, 2025 5.0 Pros It so easy to build website by just using drag and drop, beacuse of this its fast to development. Cons Only thing is that for small static websites its become costly. Switched from [Kissflow](https://www.capterra.com/p/149470/KiSSFLOW/) I face low performance for large scale websites as it becomes laggy. Review Source FK Frank K. Software Developer Automotive Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "It does not provide what you need. Why not build your own app on top of their API." October 23, 2025 1.0 It is very restrictive and does not allow you to do everything you would like. It is good for low code people but if the project actually matters why does it need to be low code. Pros It is low code that is for sure. Might not be a good thing though. Why not just create your own web dev app. You own the software and don't need to pay a licensing fee. Cons Too much restrictions, what's the point of taking all this time to learn Mendix when it is not used widely. Review Source Amber C. Senior Software Architect Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The best in low-code application development" March 15, 2025 5.0 Mendix provides an intuitive interface that allows us to design applications using a visual approach, reducing the need to manually write code. It includes AI and automation functionalities that enabled us to optimize processes and improve operational efficiency. Pros It allows creating applications in a fraction of the time it would take with traditional methods. By minimizing the need for manual coding and accelerating development time, associated costs are reduced. Cons The platform has no negative aspects to mention. Review Source Deepak S. Development Analyst Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Mendix LCNC" July 31, 2024 4.0 Used the platform for 4 years to implement an ERP development. Pros Ease of creating data models and provides a very visual and intuitive approach for workflow creation. Cons Limited UI capabilities and plug and play integrations. Review Source Kacper K. Software developer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great tool for quick development of simple apps" May 3, 2022 4.0 I have worked with Mendix for almost 4 years now and have developed several large applications. I took part in short 1-month projects and in a long project lasting over 1 year. In both cases it was possible to deliver production ready application that suited the needs of the customer. Platform is not flawless but it's the best low code platform from which I have had a chance to try with many options and powerful set of customizable components. I definitely recommend this platform for simple applications, because that's what Mendix is best at. Pros Simple applications are really easy to create and manage using this software. Thanks to online capabilities and built in SVN/git it is possible to quickly deliver applications while collaborating with the team. From my experience the development process is 5 times faster than with traditional development methods! My customers are always surprised that we can deliver production ready application within even two months! Another plus is the possibility to add java and javascript actions when a custom operation is required. Cons While developing a simple application is really easy using Mendix, when the logic is more complex and the operations are more sophisticated, the process gets harder. Because of development speed every change in requirements is twice as painful. The platform is also not the best when it comes to performance - some operations are impossible to be developed optimally without usage of java code. Also mendix academy courses have errors which makes it hard to train newcomers in the technology. Review Source Patrick P. Founder Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "No-code how it should be done" August 24, 2021 5.0 Pros The fact that it works. In my experience, the competition had too many requirements/limitations/bugs that make them very tedious to be used by someone who doesn't have experience with it. Mendix does what it's supposed to do and doesn't expect its users to implement workarounds for every new feature. The integration between development, versionning, CI/CD is both simple and powerful. Native featureset is very extensive. Although I've never had to do it myself so far, it's good to know that Java/JavaScript features can always be added if need be. Cons The mobile app deployment system through PhoneGap is confusing. Native themes are visually slightly outdated. Modifications to CSS are doable through SASS editors. It would be nice if it were better integrated with the no-code IDE.

Director - BD Mendix Innovation Team Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Fast faster fast" December 19, 2018 5.0 Because we are able to build solutions like portals & Apps without writing code in an Agile way of working (stories & sprints) we are able toe deliver more value to business demand and business is engaged because they understand what we build and see results almost every week. Pros The software is a low code solution helping development cycles being 6 - 10 times faster. What i like is that we are able to minimize coding thanks to the visual modeller that ships with the solution. Also we liked the full stack approach. From ideation, automated deployment and database creation to version management and integrated feedback loops. Cons There are always improvements possible. At this moment we are happy with the continue flow of new functionality like the Artificial Assist approach predicting the next step when developing. Review Source Pim V. Mendix Business Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great app platform for creating great applications" November 25, 2015 5.0 I loved creating things for customers, but I'm not a die-hard programmer. I was fascinated by the modeldriven approach Mendix has as I could now deliver apps much more quickly, without having to write code. I'm working with Mendix now for 2 years and still exciting about the possibilities and speed. We even created our own products with Mendix. So our own ideas became alive. For instant the Sportlight search, IFTTT for Mendix and some document generation apps. Pros \+ Bring the ideas or dreams of your customer to reality with a working app. + Quick, fast, rapid, agile. Did I mention speed? + Surprise your customers and friends Cons \- Sometime a bit difficult to explain what a App platform is like Mendix to non-tech people. But if you prototype their idea you can let them see it works or let them talk to one of our fans(=customers) Review Source Response from Siemens February 9, 2016 Thank you for your feedback! Love how you use prototypes to define what the platform can do - very creative. SV Savan V. Senior Mendix Business Engineer Used the software for: ### "All-in-One development tool for everybody" April 24, 2014 5.0 Mendix is a model-driven development platform to deliver all kinds of complex mobile,tablet and web applications with simplicity. It is a rapid app development tool where the progress is visible on day-to-day basis instead on months, Mendix provides end-to-end service from project management tool, company app store/services and hosting which allows us to focus on new things and not waste time of doing same work multiple times. It is a very easy system to learn with no programming knowledge required and can be managed by very few people. Overall highly recommend product with endless possibilities within an organisation. Pros One click deployment with super-fast turnaround from a concept to something substantial in days. End-to-end services provided. Highly scalable or can even be quite complex but still maintains flexibility and speed to do changes easily. Cons Appstore has less apps right now but it should grow with the new appcloud and sandbox releases.

Since last 2-3 years I use Mendix almost every day to build complex business solutions for various industries without putting in much time and effort where business can see the working solution and development cost savings within weeks. Its easy to learn, even for the business users who don't have any technical background. Using pre build components from app store will help you to focus on core business requirements and deployment to cloud is just couple of clicks in minutes. Along with the development platform it includes project management tool which is tightly coupled to its IDE and fits perfectly with Agile (Scrum) that enables to work very closely with the customers giving everyone clear visibility on overall progress of the project. Overall having this product in today's digital world will really help to drive your innovation and to bring your digital ideas to market in no time. Pros: Rapid device specific or responsive application delivery to market with modern UI framework, helpful community providing answers almost instantly on forum, good customer support, easy to learn, easy to create custom UI's and publish web or REST services, scalable product always up to date with the market. After the latest release scheduled this month it will be an open platform, provide offline mobile support and will have availability in the AWS marketplace. Cons: There are many pre build widgets and other components on app store but still needs to grow more. Community is adding to it every day and I believe this will be on going which will for sure immense the app store.

Specification Executive Outsourcing/Offshoring Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A streamlined and centralized system in which our data is excellently organized and collated" September 10, 2022 5.0 There is room for improvement; however, everything is good. Pros I rarely encountered bugs and technical difficulties using this software. It has been excellent in data gathering and reporting. We integrate our product and customer data using this software, and it has been perfect so far. Cons Although rare, the system sometimes slows up when a lot of information are being handled. This lead to delays in my day-to-day activities. Review Source AT Alban T. Ingénieur Animation Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Idéal platform for the creation of application." February 5, 2023 5.0 excellent, I create very good applications using Mendix Pros What I like most about Mendix, is the ability to make or create the appls dedicated to Large companies easily, quickly with very low code. this platform also offers us virtuals models that helps us achieve type of appls we want for the company. Cons I don't encounter any problem in the use of Mendix,my opinion it is designed for large companies and is not as good on adviser for medium-sized companies. Review Source İA İbrahim A. Mobile Application Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Mendix is the best" October 23, 2022 5.0 Pros You need to install the business modeler program in your local, and design your business model (domain) model through this program. You can develop applications for both web and mobile. This is a very important feature. By using the structure they call micro-flow, we can design business processes and business rules without coding. Cons In order to use the tools and the system efficiently, training is required. It is a somewhat complex software. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Student Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great option for creating business software" July 14, 2020 5.0 Pros I've worked through Mendix for one of the university projects, where we modelled a warehouse and production with a detailed specification of roles and functionalities. It ended up being a very straightforward job, as Mendix bypasses the need for coding, be it backend or even frontend, it handles everything. It let us create a massive and detailed system in a fraction of the time it would take for it to be developed in Java, for instance. Cons At times it could be inconsistent, and I believe it was due to performance issues, where rushing through functionalities would cause them to break due to not being able to save changes fast enough.

The exhaustive list of tools offer make the product comprehensive in development the UI. The changes made get saved right away into the cloud enabling better collaboration among team members. We were able to build a proof of concept in less than 24 hrs. Cons With the basic version, the "take over" functionality sometimes is annoying when one is working in group. Review Source Roel D.
