"Rapid Application Development"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Mendix?

The platform allows great colllaboration within the whole team. This enables quicker and smarter application delivery.

A developer can quickly show the business how different ideas can work and the users can see the progress all the time keeping them fully engaged and excited in the journey. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

The document generation side and reporting could be a little more sophisticated.

For example, it would be great if the drill through reports allowed more functionality.

That said, using OData the data can easily be manipulated in many reporting tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great platform for speeding things up"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Mendix?

Easy to work with modelling tool and very comprehensive webbased cloud platform.

Great compatibility with technologies (on prem, Mendix cloud, your own cloud of choice, docker).

Very fast to get to a minimum viable product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

Mobile and offline still have it's limitations.

UI editor is a bit complex sometimes, and making the apps look really really sleek is a bit challenging, although the out of the box styling options are also very decent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A powerful tool with seemingly limitless resources."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Mendix?

I would be hard pressed to think of a sort of application that you would not be able to build using Mendix. Once you learn to think like Mendix; its world seems to open up to you. There is an endless and ever-growing library of extensions and plugins to help you basically do anything that you might want to. A vibrant user community is there for support, should you need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

There is a steep learning curve; the fact that the platform has its own particular vernacular makes it nigh impossible for a self-starter to just open up the app and start without any form of guidance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mendix:

It is helpful to seek as much knowledge about this platform as possible, as it is difficult to find your way through the initial stages without a guide of some sort. Even searching the user forums is extremely helpful; as you will seldom - if ever - be the only person who has not had the same question. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mendix solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have used the platform to handle form submissions as well as databases and statistics applications. Integrating APIs into the apps have helped us to create powerful apps that have the "brain" of the organization, or at least its data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Rapid Development Tool that suits my needs"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Mendix?

The flexibility and fastness of the developing a new or existing app. The easy re-usability of created logic. The fast deployment to the cloud. The version control with multiple developers on the same project. I also like quickness in response when I have an issue with the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

I don't use the web-modeler, why should I bother with an incomplete version of the software? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Coding made easier"

5/5

What do you like best about Mendix?

What I like best is the way coding was made easier with the help of the GUI. The range of actions available make developing a business logic much quicker and very efficiently through microflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

What I dislike is not the Modeler itself but the documentation available for it. Some of the functions that can be used in the Modeler are very poorly explained without any sufficient examples. I would definitely need some more information as to better understand and use the available functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful development tool "

3.5/5

What do you like best about Mendix?

Quick and easy to create basic web applications. You can start creating your own web applications with the basic training Mendix provides. However you have the possibility to create powerful core process applications with a lot of integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mendix?

The Platform restrictions that are defined by design decisions, you are limited by what Mendix offers you. However you can go 'outside' the platform and create additional widgets but they are harder to maintain and this isn't helping the general overview of the application.
