AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- Users report that Salesforce Platform excels in customization capabilities, with a score of 9.2, allowing businesses to tailor their applications extensively. In contrast, OutSystems, with a score of 8.5, offers decent customization but lacks the depth that Salesforce provides, particularly in complex workflows.
- Reviewers mention that Salesforce Platform's data security features are robust, scoring 9.2, which is crucial for businesses handling sensitive information. OutSystems, while still secure, scores lower at 8.6, leading some users to feel less confident in its security measures.
- G2 users highlight the ease of use of OutSystems, scoring 9.2, which makes it particularly appealing for teams looking to quickly adopt a new platform. Salesforce Platform, while still user-friendly at 8.5, may require more training for new users to fully leverage its capabilities.

- Users on G2 report that both platforms have similar scores in lifecycle management (8.9), but Salesforce Platform is noted for its comprehensive support during the application lifecycle, which some users feel is more structured compared to OutSystems.
