Super Platform for Digitalization
Simple initial setup and good development tools for building new apps, both mobile and enterprise web
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The development tools are excellent for building new apps, both mobile and enterprise web.
We also use Mendix Enterprise Integration for complex business logic. It's a low-code platform, so we run Mendix in the Mendix Cloud.
What needs improvement?
The code refactoring tools could be better, especially for applications running for years. It's not bad, but it could be smoother.
Also, writing new widgets can be trickier than it should be for some people, but not if you're familiar with Mendix.
Pricing used to be complex, but Mendix has improved that quite a bit. So, the pricing policy in general. It's not exactly straightforward.
The reporting feature also wasn't great, but Mendix has fixed that in version 10. I still need to test it fully, though. Version 9's reporting could be better.
In future releases, I would like to see more features around report writing.
Another thing is managing and breaking down monolithic apps into modules, with version control for individual modules, which could be more robust. Sharing individual modules wasn't as strong as it should be.
However, the biggest improvement still would be better refactoring tools, both for code and models.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using it since 2011.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I would rate the stability a ten out of ten. We've been running large applications on it, and almost never have any issues.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Mendix is easy to scale for typical business applications. It's horizontally and vertically scalable.
It used to be mainly for medium and large companies, but the new pricing makes it much more accessible. Now, it's suitable for the whole spectrum, from small to large.
How are customer service and support?
The customer service and support are not bad. There is definitely room for improvement in response time. And they tend to escalate things quite a bit before acknowledging a problem. So, our experience has been a bit slow but not terrible.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Mendix competes with Outsystems, Microsoft Power Apps, Salesforce, and a few local players.
I'd definitely rate Mendix as the number one low-code, model-driven platform. It's much better than the competition regarding ease of use, pricing, stability, IDE strength, good training materials, and easy staff onboarding and certification. It has made major improvements in those areas.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is very simple. It was super quick.
It supports all deployment models. You can run it in the Mendix cloud with a single button deploy, on your own cloud, or integrate it into your DevOps environment for scripted rollouts.
It's very flexible, and Mendix has really improved the deployment aspect. So, clients have complete control over deployment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing is fairly comparable. I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, where one is high price, and ten is low price.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
What other advice do I have?
Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. There is room for improvement.
