"Rapid App Development Made Effortless with Mendix"
What do you like best about Mendix?

The best thing about Mendix is how quickly it allows me to develop and deploy applications with minimal coding. The visual modeling interface is intuitive, making it easy to design complex workflows and business logic without writing everything from scratch. I also appreciate the seamless integration with other systems and cloud platforms, which saves a lot of development time. Collaboration is much easier because business users and developers can work on the same platform, speeding up the overall delivery process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

The main downside of Mendix is that the platform can become complex for very large or highly customized applications. While the low-code approach is great for speed, advanced features sometimes require coding knowledge, which can slow down development for non-technical users. Additionally, licensing costs can be high for smaller teams, and performance can be affected if applications are not optimized properly. Some integrations also require extra effort to set up compared to traditional development platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Mendix - Best platform to start our career"
What do you like best about Mendix?

Mendix helps us to develop the apps much faster than expected. Essentially, it is straightforward to understand and implement. It allows us to integrate various services into the Mendix application. It also allows the developer to implement the custom code into the Mendix app via custom widgets, modules, Java actions, and JavaScript actions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

Mendix seems to be good, and I have nothing to say for now Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My Mendix review"
What do you like best about Mendix?

What I like best about the Mendix platform is that it accelerates the speed of software development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

One of the things that I dislike about the Mendix platform is inability to run asynchronous operations efficiently and effectively. It's possible, I'll grant Mendix that, but I do think that there's a lot to improve to make it useful in production environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Enhanced business and IT collaboration"
What do you like best about Mendix?

The turnaround time and the capability to have fast paced development.

As a Business Analyst working closely with non IT users it makes it super convenient to be able to coordinate and show them the results real time. This makes sure the product we are building is aligned with business requirements at every level. Bottom line it boosts agility to the next level ;) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

1. It seems like there is a trade off with performance whenever complex implementations are done.

2. I have heard some of our business complain about the licensing cost.

3. When complex integrations are needed on the Mendix app it feels as though there is a limited low code space especially in engineering applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Yolanda Dong of Mendix

We're glad to hear that you find Mendix's fast-paced development and real-time coordination convenient for aligning with business requirements. We understand your concerns about performance trade-offs, licensing costs, and limited low code space for complex integrations, and we're continuously working to improve in these areas.

"Mendix has been a great time saver"
What do you like best about Mendix?

It is very quick for deployments. And the workflow for creating custom applications is really well designed. The development teams love the way we can create new applications in a very ordered and structured way. The ease of integration into existing infrastructure was relatively straight forward. The team uses Mendix on a very frequent basis and it has been easy to implement updates and changes to the existing code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

Creating copies of applications with 50% or more reuse of existing code & packages is time consuming. All actions have to be repeated multiple times. Would love to see an update where this is reduced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Yolanda Dong of Mendix

We appreciate your feedback about the time-consuming process of creating copies of applications with a high reuse of existing code. We'll definitely take this into consideration for future updates.

"Accessible way to become a developer"
What do you like best about Mendix?

I like how it allows people who do not necessarily have knowledge and skills to be working in web development, to still participate and learn the necessary skills and gain the necessary knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

It is low-code, which is nice for the reasons described above but also means there sometimes are limitations that are difficult to work around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Transformative Low-Code"
What do you like best about Mendix?

Unlike many players in the low-code space where low-code capability is just an extention of some preixesting core capability (think Salesforce, Service Now, Microsoft, Appian), Mendix is a pure low-code platform entirely focused on low-code application development. This focus, allows the tools they provide to be intuitive to work with and extreemly capable in terms of technical delivery, and easy to integrate.

Althought it's designed to be an enterprise grade platform, they have licencing models that would be suitable for startups and smaller organisations.

By providing all the tools and services required to design, build and deploy - so implementation is very straignt forward.

In addition to their 24/7 online support Mendix provides a full online academy, and have a thriving online comunity - all of which delivers an outstanding developer support experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

Not so much a dislike but just a reality of low code is that there are limitations that should be acknowledge.

Yes, it's fully extensible, but only in Java for server side logic, and JavaScript for client side logic - if you want to work in other languages/frameworks you'll need to build those functions elsewhere and integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Yolanda Dong of Mendix

Matthew, we appreciate your feedback on the limitations of low-code platforms and understand the importance of acknowledging them. We're continuously working to improve and expand our platform's capabilities to provide a better development experience for our users.

"Mendix as UI for Opcenter"
What do you like best about Mendix?

It creates an abstraction from the Opcenter backend, meaning upgrading to a newer version of Opcenter will not break the user interface. Upgrades are also much easier, as it is not necessary to port customizations in the Opcenter Portal to a new version of the screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

Although it is classified as "low code", there is still a learning curve for new developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great software"
What do you like best about Mendix?

Mendix is a great piece of software. It makes the creation of applications so much easier than with other tools. And the security features causes your app to always be secure, which is of course also great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

It's a bit expensive so I don't think it's always profitable to use Mendix for B2C apps for example Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
