Mendix Review **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Deepak A. | Web developer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 24, 2021 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The feature I like most about Mendix is its Desktop Modeler. Due to the Desktop Modeler, it becomes very easy to work on projects, and it provides better performance than a web modeler. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** In Mendix, we can not write SQL queries to perform general DB operations. Though we have QOL, it only works with Java action. Due to which many simple tasks become very complex. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** I was using Mendix for building apps as it is a Low code platform tool. With the help of Mendix, we can build applications in a very less time as compared to other traditional coding languages. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Deepak, we're glad to hear that you find the Desktop Modeler easy to work with and that it provides better performance for your projects. ### 11.

Best low code development platform there is **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Martin d. | Business Engineer, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 28, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The high level of quality in everything Mendix does is what I like best. I have been working for over a year with Mendix now and the number of high quality additions to the platform in this period is staggering. The modeler works really intuitive, it looks good and is very complete. Peolple at Mendix are very active in supporting their developer community with learning paths, activities, webinars etc. as well. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** The modeler is free to download and use, but your local application will be terminated after 2 - 4 hours. This means that if you are a professional developer, you'll have to rerun your app(s) several times a day. Annoying when you are debugging. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** This is the best low code platform **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** I have been working in 3 projects with Mendix now and in all 3 we have created great apps that added a lot of value to the business. ### 13.

As a person with no IT background i did not believe that it was that easy to deploy and make applications. However, Mendix have shown me that it's possible! For simple things a person does not need a lot of experience, which allow a lot people to learn it and allows people also be more creative as you do not need to work with syntax errors and try to solve them the whole time! **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Just a small dislike, but not that critical. I currently like the things I can do with Mendix. The only small thing that I dislike it that with the layout it sometimes makes it difficult to ensure that certain tabs or actions buttons are the right place. Even with placing them or with containers there might be a solution for this. However, I am not certain as I am not that experienced with Mendix. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Just try it and do the online courses. It will allow you to see the power of Mendix! **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** It give people with no knowledge of IT the opporunity to make and deploy applications. With Mendix it is possible to shorten the learning curve what is needed to make applications. Mendix is RAD tool that I would recommend people i know!

Faster and better applications with Mendix **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Steven D. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The rapid development of applications and the freedom to add code yourself when needed. Most of the functionality can be build with the default Mendix functionality. For the complex functionality one ore more Java blocks can be added. It's well integrated with Eclipse, so you can easy debug the Java code. With the custom styling it's possible to give the application an unique look. Also the possibility to work close together with the business makes it attractive to choise for Mendix. The whole community of Mendix. They organise Meetups to let exports and developers share there knowledge. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Not all the widget are update frequently to the latest Modeler version. Creating an application in multiple languages is possible but your not triggerd/forced to translate labels after you edit an existing application. So sometimes you forget to add the translated labels. The pricing model can be an obstacle for smaller companies. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Combine the power of Business and IT on the Mendix platform to improve your applications. Does the requirements for the application change often? The rapid development makes it possible to realize all those changes. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Because of the rapid development Mendix is very usefull for a POC or prototype. Beside that Business and IT are working close together because it's a low code platform. We are solving the challenges below with Mendix: - Integrations with multiple other applications - Creating very quick a POC - Increase the customer engagement during the devolopment **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Steven, we appreciate your feedback on Mendix's rapid development capabilities and the freedom to add custom code.

A great platform to integrate systems and quickly deploy relevant solutions **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Bart v. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 14, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** I like the fact that I am able to develop an application in a visual manner, where all the business logic is easily applied. The use of microflows really appeals to me because it keeps the flow of processes clear and concise. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** I would like to be able to have more control over custom styling, without having to resort to the custom.css file. The webmodeller is gaining features rapidly, so I'm waiting patiently for this. Another point of improvement is the internal database viewer. When creating a sandbox application, and tracking behaviour, I think the built-in database vieuwer is too limited to be useful. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** I think it is important to not only stress the benifits of how quickly Mendix can help build apps, but also give attention to the benefits of the advantages of leaving the SOR intact (no customizations) and use Mendix as a engagement layer to meet the custom demands. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Currently I am working on a project where data stored in SAP is published to Mendix through a custom API, to display information that is not available in a standard SAP view. This application will be used on mobile phones, so employees can quickly gain insight in their data, anytime, anywhere. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Bart, thank you for sharing your recommendation. It's great to hear how Mendix is helping you integrate systems and deploy relevant solutions, especially in your project involving SAP data and mobile accessibility. ### 16.

Also Mendix releases often updates with new features and better solutions for our needs. The possibility of linking development to user stories in their Sprinter application. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** That the quality of new Mendix modelers is not tested correct. The lack of a great user selectable UI/UX. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** It is best suited in a environment where it needs to support some sort of workflow, where speed of innovation is key. Use the sprinter environment for added user stories. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Order picking and service application including warehousing Callcentre automation IoT integrations and many more.

Flexible and Fast way to produce business apps **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Georgios A. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 16, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** I like who easy the app is to use. Everything available within 1 or 2 clicks. It takes all the boring aspects of developing away and leaves only the joy of creativity. It comes with the Sprintr where you use for collaborations (user stories, etc) which is also integrated to the Modeler. Great free online training too. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** I don't see the amount of information on the changes of every commit. Merging branches doesn't always go smooth. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** It's ideal if your core business is not IT and you just want a flexible way to produce business applications by leaving most of the worries (cloud, infra, development) to Mendix and its partners and you stay on the role of the Product Owner. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Huge acceleration of the time-to-market for simple business apps and way better maintainability. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Georgios, we're happy to hear that Mendix has provided you with a flexible and fast way to produce business apps.

A fast way to innovate business app **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Richard v. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 14, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** With Mendix it is possible to to quickly innovate business app. With a quick time to market and model-driven development apps can be developed much quicker than the old fashioned way. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** The web modeler can be a bit more intuitive to get more out of it. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Currently we work on a business app where administration and invoicing is being automated. Automated ways of gathering data, and automated ways of checking if all necessary documents are received saves time for employees, which frankly are to expensive to do this type of work. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Richard, thank you for your feedback about the web modeler. We are continuously working on improving our platform and will take your input into consideration for future updates. ### 19. The best and fastest way on changing and facilitating your business within an ever changing market **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Peter Z. | Medior Consultant, Management Consulting, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 11, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The strengh of Mendix lies in the simple handeling and easy to grasp/learn logic and ui. The ease with which you can translate business idea's and implement these within a maner of hours or days. This really improves the interaction between IT and the rest of the business. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** When handeling large datasets Mendix can be quite slow and you should resort to java or sql. As a lot of users are used to fancy iOS or Andriod apps, users often expect a lot or have wild ideas about how ui should work. Since you are bound to the framework of Mendix your options are limited to the framework. That being said, there are a lot of options to customize your layout/ui. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** While Mendix is a tool for a lot of business related issues it does not solve everything. Think carefully where you want to use Mendix for and if Mendix is the best solution for that problem. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** For my clients I have solved a lot of different problems in various industries. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Thank you for sharing your experience with Mendix. We appreciate your positive feedback on the ease of use and quick implementation.

Mendix has an active community forum that you can use to ask questions might you get stuck with a problem. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Deploying to the cloud can take some time. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Follow the free online Rapid Developer course and just start building your first application! **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** We were able to rebuild and functionally extend an application in just three weeks which had been built in the traditional way (html, css) and which took three months to build. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > We're thrilled to hear that you had a great experience with Mendix and found it intuitive and efficient for developing applications.

Very intuitive both the web and desktop modeller. Fast feedbackloop with business stakeholders and users. What you ask this morning is in this afternoons test version and deployed in the live environment tomorrow. Super smooth cloud deployment. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Mendix ease of use advantage is also a disadvantage. The ease of use support putting more and more functionality in the same app could in the end lead to functionalities being duplicated unnecessarily. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** After years in IT Management and Architecting I decided to reboot my career as a Mendix engineer. I go to work smiling every day since i switched. Mendix has proven to be easy to understand and use. I love the very short feedback loops with our product owners and project sponsors. The feedback we get from our customers is also very inspiring. They are impressed by the short time we need to come up with prototype of even working solutions already during project intake. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Customer portal for B2B customer allowing to open up the processes to the customers: => Order processing andowrkflow => Quote processing and workflow => logistics workflow => On demand document generation => Integration with backend SapB1 integration => Integration with Enterprise Content Managemnt Responding to innovative business needs. Removing the bloody handwork from the devops cycle. Work around a growing scarcity in technical IT staff. Very short time to market for new business ideas. Very agile in responding to business needs. ### 23. Fast and easy to learn development **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tom S. | Mendix Developer, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 09, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The speed with which you can develop user friendly apps. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** It is hard to do code reviews because there is no good tool to watch differences in between commits. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** If you are interested in creating robust business applications quickly mendix is an easy way to quickly achieve this goal.

My go-to rapid development tool **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Milan M. | Senior Consultant, Management Consulting, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 23, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The rapidness of deploying a new app or implementing changes. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** The web modeler's current functionality is too low key at the moment. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Try to stay up to date with the modeler version! **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Mendix is the perfect tool for both agile and devops projects. I've worked with Mendix on both entirely new projects as projects that are on the go for a few years. The fact that it's so easy to just dig in and getting up to speed in very short notice makes Mendix feasible for basically any type of project. Of course it's better to be part of a project from the very first start, as you have an influence on the creation of the data model. But I think one of the biggest advantages of Mendix is that when it's being used in projects, and new developers need to put on, you can bring them up to speed very easily. This is due to the ease of use of both data modelling and microflows and the way you can document your progress. As I'm writing this review I've been working with Mendix for 3,5 years, without any form of IT/technical background. But I'm still astonished by the speed of which I've been able to master the tool and putting it to good use for all projects I have done so far. Conclusion, I would recommend Mendix to basically everyone who would like to build their own app. ### 25.

You need an appetite to constantly innovate and improve to keep up. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Mendix is a cutting-edge low-code platform that can transform your capabilities as an organization. When applied as a platform always make sure you take organizational transformation into account. When you are adopting the technology as a whole, use external/partner support in the start and structuring of your Mendix capability. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are one of the leading global Mendix providers and have solved countless business problems. Mainly focused on enterprise optimization and innovation. ### 26. Rapid development, rapid deployment, easy maintenance and flexibility out of the box! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sytze d. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 07, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** It's relatively easy to build a working application and roll out to production, without any form of coding. Building with modularity in mind makes components highly reusable, including lots of building blocks available through an app store. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Not all app store apps are maintained well enough to keep working. Especially for the components built by Mendix itself, this is sometimes disappointing. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Mendix is most interesting when you can say yes to these 2 questions: 1. Do you have multiple applications on top of core systems? 2. Do your applications use and interact with data? **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** We were able to build applications for lots of different business processess that depend on data usage and interaction. Especially with data intensive applications, Mendix becomes really useful to replace numerous other applications, often built in Excel or Access. Eliminating user errors and errors in maintainability, while building and deploying way faster than traditional development can achieve. ### 27. Mendix review **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ernst M. | Mendix consultant, Insurance, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 07, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The relative speed and ease of creating applications without extensive programming knowledge is a great plus. It's easy to learn but hard to master. It's a great tool for easy integrations to other systems and ideal for agile/devops development. It's great for developing re usable components and thus delivering business value asap. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** There are a lot of different versions that require a lot of keeping up with the latest releases. The sprinter is not ideal for bigger projects as it doesn't have a lot of functionality. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** don't forget best practices! **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Quick and easy development and continues improvement while working together with the business. It's very easy to quickly create new business value. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Ernst, thank you for the recommendation to others considering Mendix. We agree that best practices are important for maximizing the benefits of our platform. ### 28. Mendix is an easy tool to build your own app **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Hans K. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 05, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** Building an app connected to a database, with decission logic in an easy way. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** It requires effort to connect to SAP cloud foundry.. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is possible to build an app on its own, but also connect to other applications like SAP for reading data. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Hans, we're glad to hear that you find Mendix easy to use for building apps and connecting to databases! ### 29. Idea -> Mockup -> App **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lukas T. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 02, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** Mendix is highly flexible and can be used to quickly get prototypes running. The available training videos and step by step tutorials help you to get started. Simple apps can be put together in a relatively short amount of time. When enough background information is provided, the active community is able to either solve problems or at least point towards the right direction. Due to the active community and direct feedback of ideas for future modeler releases, Mendix is able to react to popular developer needs rather quickly. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Unfortunately, the release cycle also comes with the drawback of many versions. Although the apps provided in the AppStore might be very useful, it can be tedious to get them running without prior knowledge. Especially for starters, a bit more documentation could speed up the setup. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Have a look at the tutorials on gettingstarted.mendixcloud.com **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Mendix can solve a great variety of business problems. Customization is key - Mendix provides you with the tools you need. Mendix is supported and steadily developed and improved. ### 30. Mendix - The Platform for success! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jeffrey K. | Mendix Business line manager, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** I've been working with the Mendix platform for 6 years now, and still find its easy to learn, hard to master developers user interface great. The built-in real-time model checking features are top notch, omnichannel development (develop functionality once, create a desktop/tablet/mobile app in a snap), ease of setting up integrations with other systems are great. The Mendix community, with its active developers and knowledge meetups is fantastic, anyone can learn almost an infinite amount of things in no time. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** What could be improved upon is Mendix' document generation mechanism. It turns a graphical template into XSL-FO, which outputs PDFs, Docx, etc, but a simple change in the template requires an entire restart of your application. A 'generate preview document' button would be much better. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Complete development platform for both Business and Developers. Easy to learn, free to learn and use for the first time. Connects with any database and most other (legacy) systems. Active community with lots of developer support, new ways of creating functionality and a top-grade User Interface (Atlas UI) framework, which makes it easy to create beautiful, user friendly apps on the fly! **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Creating business value for our customers. Helping them work better, faster, more efficient. Putting smiles on the faces of our end users and wowing them with fantastic looking apps, developed in days instead of weeks. Being able to change the application on the fly, stunning customers who have bad experiences with traditional development methods. ### 31. Mendix, for fast implementing and conitnuous improvement **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Albert L. | Mendix Training Coordinator, Management Consulting, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** With the easy to understand user interface that you can create with Mendix, you can easily discuss with end-users what they want to see in Mendix. Then the change is rapidly implemented which contributes greatly to the continuous improvement of your apps and your user satisfaction. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** I'm missing the functionality to add security on a developer level. It would be nice to see developer security roles that lock certain module such that junior developers can be locked out of some modules or end-users can be allowed in the model. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Just start with a simple app for your own test purposes. After seeing how easy it is to use, you will be convinced. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** A great part our consultancy company works with Mendix and we've used it for several clients. The great power of Mendix is that it can be used for a great variety of business problems. We've used it to create guided questionnaires, but also to create an integration layer between all various kinds of services. So from a business perspective it is an easy to use tool. Also from a developer perspective it is a great tool. The way of modeling is easy to understand and proper documentation while modeling is also possible. There are great learning paths to follow for new developers as well. Projects can grow quite big very soon, however, in Mendix you can easily separate the modelling into modules, but also in microflows that preserve the readability for new developers that join the project after a few years. For myself, I'm working with Mendix for about 1.5 years and I already became an advanced developer. As I mentioned, it is an easy learning modeling tool. ### 32. Powerful development tool **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Andreas B. | Consultant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 26, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** I like the speed of the whole system. With Mendix, you are able to deliver prototypes in a very short time. I also like the integration of webservices like soap and rest. Data modeling is well structured in Mendix. Last but not least, I like the online tutorials, webinars, forum,... **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Sometimes, Ui development is not as intuitive as it seems at first sight. Especially if you are a backend developer that is not very familiar with frontend web development. Sometimes. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Just give it a try. The online tutorial is a great starting point. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Mendix is great to build a custom application that just fits the business needs. Instead of paying for standard software and changing your business to work with the software you build your application to work with/for your business. Also, the software is growing with your business and can be constantly changing to always fit your requirements. The users can (and should be) involved in the development process. ### 33. Why Mendix is the next logical step in development evolution? **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jeroen D. | Mendix Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 21, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** It is efficient in many ways. Agile, Intuitive, very quick, ... **What do you dislike about Mendix?** The default styling need some improvement **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Styling can use some work **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Actually a great variety of problems. Because you model instead of code, it's easier to implement the business requirements. A good understanding and analysis of the business processes is of course mandatory. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Jereon, we're thrilled to hear you find Mendix efficient, agile, and intuitive! We appreciate your feedback on the default styling and will take it into consideration for future improvements. Your recommendation to focus on styling is duly noted. We're glad to hear Mendix is helping you implement business requirements more easily and effectively. If you have any specific styling suggestions or further feedback, please feel free to reach out.

Perfect platform for adding business value and creating robust Apps **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sjoerd B. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 23, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** I love the visual way of modeling. I don't have a technical background from my education. If you understand the business and do have affinity with modeling the Mendix platform will suit you like a glove. It is awesome to have the support of the community. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Updating from really old versions, going from a old version 5 to the latest version 7 is a pain. The mendix documentation however will be able to help and there is always the community to support you. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Perfect RAD platform for people with common sense and a business logic. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** I've created multiple apps, last app we've created made a decrease in manual labor from 32 hours to 30 minutes, the app was created in just 3 weeks and the manual labor of 32 hours had a backlog of +2000 items left. The first two weeks we had no end-user involved, we could start creating an app and after this the end-user got involved. The whole data structure had to be rebuild (Difference of expectations between IT and Business...). The mendix platform is very agile and we've reconstructed everything in a couple of days. IT & business were surprise by the speed and efficiency. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > We're thrilled to hear that you find Mendix to be a perfect platform for adding business value and creating robust apps. The visual way of modeling and the support of the community are indeed great assets. ### 35. Mendix review **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Maarten B. | Business consultant/ Expert Mendix developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 03, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The beste abiltiy of Mendix is to be able to create application in such a short notice. Development of applications is therefore radically changed. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** I don't dislike much, a point for improvement might be the use of **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** I have solved mutliptle business problems for different companies as a ITvisors consultant.

Highly recommend Mendix **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brian S. | Engineering Services Associate Manager, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 09, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** Mendix is a brand-new world. The low code concept must be the trend. I used Blue Prism before so I can easily catch these similar ideas. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** The web modeler can't do some complicate activities so I had to switch to desktop modelers. But sometimes the web modeler is much easier to do some UI work. It was slow and not easy to make sure both modelers sync very well. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** I encourage everyone to take a look on Mendix. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Mendix apps replace the legacy application in a much better new level. The back-end data will be changed to Big Data so the front-end legacy apps can't work anymore. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Brian, thank you for recommending Mendix to others! We understand the challenges with the web modeler and desktop modelers, and we are continuously working to enhance the user experience and functionality of both tools. ### 37. From business engineer to Mendix developer **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Wouter V. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 12, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The thing I like about Mendix is that it's a full package for a low-code platform in which you can quickly develop your own applications. What I mean with full package is that it delivers not only a great platform, but also a large community where you can ask around about your challenges and great learning modules to understand the basics and advanced thing about Mendix. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** There aren't much things that I dislike about the platfrom. If I should name one then it's the maintenance of the widgets that you can find in the app store. When you upgrade the platform to the newest version, some widgets aren't compatible any more. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are solving a varity of business problemens with Mendix. For instance a often built in Excel or Access sheets. We are eliminating user errors and errors in maintainability, while building and deploying faster than traditional development can achieve. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > Wouter, we're glad to hear that you find Mendix to be a full package for low-code development and that you appreciate the supportive community and learning resources. ### 38.

Low code development is the future and Mendix is een A+ representative of this philosophy. Recently there have been a lot of exciting releases which shows that Mendix does not stand still and devlopes very quickly! **What do you dislike about Mendix?** I dsilike the fact that in recent releases there is an emphasis on the webmodeler. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Quick solutions. Easy to get the business involved in the development process because of the visual way of modeling. Much faster then java development for example. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > We're glad to hear that you appreciate Mendix's all-in-one solution for developing, deploying, and monitoring business applications. We're committed to staying at the forefront of low code development and continuously improving our platform. ### 39. Creating applications in no-time with Mendix **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ward B. | Mendix Consultant, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** With Mendix, the time it takes to develop an application is very small. This way, the feedback-loop for the product is very small, which gives great value for the customer. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** There are limitations to the platform, which sometimes cannot be easily worked-around. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Mendix is a perfect starting point for beginning developers. You don't need a lot of development experience to be succesfull with this tool. On the other hand, it helps to have an object-oriented mindset to succeed in this field. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am participating in a project for an insurance company. We are are developing a tool to make offers to customers, and are ever extending the range of products we are offering. ### 40. Great Business Value & very accessible **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Steven d. | Mendix Business Consultant, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 05, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** The platform is very easy to use for developers and enables collaboration between business and IT. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** More checks on microflows would be nice to have to prevent certain specific errors. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** I'm currently using Mendix as a consultant to optimize the promotion management processes of our customers. **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > It's great to hear that Mendix is helping you optimize promotion management processes for your customers.

The online learning paths are great and range from beginner to advanced. New learning paths are added frequently and the others are regularly maintained. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Customising the desktop modeler works fine (placing toolbars where you want etc) but there is no customizing the theme (yet). For instance a dark theme would be a great addition! **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** We can develop applications really quick (couple of days) and our customers are always amazed by the speed with which we can show them new features in the application. ### 42. The most flexible and best supported low-code platform **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** William v. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 26, 2018 **What do you like best about Mendix?** All of the mentioned features + the great support from mendix itself **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Modeler could preferably be more WYSIWYG. Can't wait for the desktop modeler to be as WYSIWYG as (or even more than) the web modeler. UX/UI possibilities could preferably be extended, current functionality is usable for 80% of the situations, the other 20% requires 80% of the effort. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** I would advise using Mendix. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Up to now I only used NMnendix to solve bid, PoC and training problems, but also in those situations the added value of Mendix is already showing. I NOW REALIZE THAT I COMPLETED THIS REVIEW ALREADY, DIRECTLY AFTER THE MENDIX BOOTCAMP AT CGI, AND RECEIVED THE NICE MENDIX SOCKS :) **Official Response from Yolanda Dong:** > William, thank you for your feedback on the modeler and UX/UI possibilities. We are constantly working to improve our platform and appreciate your input. ### 43.

With its great standard features, and powerful extension capabilities in the form of building custom widgets we have made a single page app that was connected to Microsoft Face recognition, Google Speech to text and many more external services. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** You need to be a fullstack programmer to truly capture and also understands its power. Its not for the business user, but for the professional who wants to develop at lightning speed. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Start your project with a Mendix professional right from the start. Do not think that a non technical person can start a complex application. Train your internal staff up to the level of advanced Mendix expert before starting a big endeavor. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Mendix allowed us to make an MVP (a Proof of Concept) in less then 24 hours. That is architectural designed with security first in mind. Capable to be used in a high demanding and high available IT environment. ### 44.

Everything is moldable to how you want it. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Not as easy to understand as I'd hoped - coming from a totally different background I still have to learn a lot. I can see why it's called low code but it's definitely different from no code! Extra skills such as Java, JavaScript and CSS are more than recommended to optimally use Mendix. **Recommendations to others considering Mendix:** Mendix is a solution for big companies I'd say. Make sure you get seniors on board to guide your juniors! **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Quick solutions for in-house applications. ### 45.

Changes in your app can be done very easily, because Mendix handles everything in the background for you. Great when a customer wants a change, and you can do it while the customer is sitting next to you and can immediately see the changes. Integrations are also really using. Using Mendix, you can consume or publish SOAP or Rest services very easily. Using the Sprintr platform, deploying your app in the Mendix cloud is very easy and user friendly. **What do you dislike about Mendix?** Mendix offers a lot of standard tools/widget to use in your applications, which make developing your apps really fast, but when you want something different from the standard, you have to reside to custom coding. It is possible within the platform, but may require some more time. **What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?** Development speed, being able to quickly respond to changes. For customers, we have used Mendix to create custom apps with integrations quickly, where standard off the shelf products do not suffice. ### 48.
