Mendix Reviews & Product Details

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Making it appear to the end users that they are in Teamcenter so it doesn't look like we have an additional application we are making them use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mendix is a great low-code and no code platform which has the great potential to enable rapid application development model within the business.

The best part what I like about Mendix is TAT(Turn around time) of the project. With help of Mendix, we can easily deliver an application in a span of 3 weeks from scratch right from development to deployment which usually takes months in case of traditional coding.

Not having CDN within the Mendix architecture is one of the thing I don't like. It can have enhance the performance and response time of the application having within the application setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mendix makes app development efficient with its visual interface, but what really stands out for me is the balance between ease of use and flexibility. Compared to other low-code tools I’ve worked with, Mendix gives me far more control and freedom to handle complex requirements without feeling constrained. The platform’s robust integration options and scalability make it a greatchoice for building applications that can grow with the ever changing business needs.

One issue I’ve encountered with Mendix is the dependency management for marketplace modules. While these modules save A LOT OF time, managing their updates and compatibility with new platform releases sometimes become a challenge. I know the latest release is addressing this, but it still requires careful planning and testing to avoid potential issues in production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can start adding value from the get-go. This is achievable because the platform lets you focus on the business challenges instead of the technical details you need to focus on when building with alternative methods, such as what we low-coders call high-code. This does not mean that you are too limited. I would go so far as to say that for 80% of business-to-business or business internal processes, Mendix can easily supply a solution.

Mendix should not be confused with no-code or limited low-code platforms. You may build a custom application from the ground up. It will allow you to cut corners and reach your ROI much faster. If the platform can't provide a solution out of the box, know that the tech stack is Java, SQL, and JavaScript, so extending the server-side logic with Java or the client-side logic with JavaScript is still possible. As enterprise apps and even small business apps never work alone, integrations are effortless to achieve. By default, REST, OData, SOAP and DB connections are supported out of the box.

As I use the platform daily and I have done so for 14 years, I know it inside and out. I have even had short projects supplying Mendix R&D with my skill set. And have been appointed MVP since June this year. This is a fantastic program to support ecosystem developers with direct lines to Mendix R&D to achieve a quick feedback loop and an even better platform.

Even if you are not ready to buy Mendix yet it is super easy to get started, after you have build your first app, perhaps based on an Excel you have been struggling with you may deploy it to a sandbox and share the results with the rest of the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform has grown a lot since its first inception. This means the learning curve is growing for newcomers. The number of possibilities to learn more about the platform has grown, too, but that does mean that it takes a bit of studying to truly become good at using the Mendix platform. This, however, is no different from any other mature application platform. It is, on the other hand, not so visible from Mendix's marketing that claims that anyone can build an app with Mendix. This is true at its core, but the moment you start to build core applications for your business seriously, it is still very advisable to have developers who know more about software development than just the basics that you encounter when first starting with Mendix.
