We really admire its design tools that are unique and so helpful. We have found it as a complete package that has allowed us to link with the database, to design form, and to write a code. it has made application development super convenient .we utilized its other essential functions also and they too worked so well and we have found it excelling in debugging too. So overall it is an incredible tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have found it as a complete package with all the essentials features required for application development but the only thing that trobled is that it doesn’t work well with customized javascript. using custom javascript caused us massive trouble. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Servoy is all that it claims to be"

5/5

What do you like best about Servoy?

- A library or function already exists for most any purpose

- Powerful, flexible data handling capabilities

- RAD thanks in part to so many common functions (navigation, security, etc.) being available

- Use of the eclipse IDE Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servoy?

Not exactly a "dislike" but 1 issue I had: Builds could take a very long time when connected to legacy data (Visual FoxPro DBF files, using JDBC). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Servoy:

I would definitely recommend using Servoy (both the company and the product) since my own experience has been singularly positive. I think Servoy is especially well-suited to getting a certain kind of legacy app rewritten and up and running. In our case, simply reproducing existing features and functions was always accomplished fairly quickly and efficiently, and the resulting product was also cleaner, more maintainable and more user-friendly - no small feat given the upgrade from FoxPro to a true multitier architecture.

Beyond this general recommendation to someone considering Servoy, I would also suggest two things:

1. Try to do a proof of concept that includes a real business/programming concern (using your own data) since this should provide a good picture of what a larger Servoy project is going to look like.

2. Use Servoy resources to the extent possible, which often saves time & money in the long run despite some upfront cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

- Updating a critical legacy application originally written in FoxPro 2.5 and rewritten in Visual FoxPro approximately 15 years ago

- Primary benefits are 1) Servoy expertise & experience, and 2) rapid development Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Servoy - rapid application development for in-house apps and small/medium ISV's"

4/5

What do you like best about Servoy?

- Very fast realization of working software

- Great team, fun to work with, listens to customer needs

- Ability to work with Javascript and ability to create custom components

- Annual Servoy World conference Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servoy?

- Not in all aspects 'the latest and greatest' in tech. That's also not needed, but in some cases we revert to additional tech to complement Servoy (we also use node.js and react.js)

- Would be great if the community was bigger and more documentation was available Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Servoy:

Dig into the possibilities of Servoy: Work with their support staff, attend the annual Servoy World conference, read documentation, watch video's/webcasts, engage with other customers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Minox provides accounting software for the Dutch SME market, with a focus on finance professionals. We were able to rapidly realize a market ready application with Servoy in 2014/2015. Currently Servoy serves as a stable backbone for our solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5

What do you like best about Servoy?

Very personable company that you know will be there to assist you with your development needs. I encourage anyone looking for a powerful and robust development platform to modernize their existing desktop, thin client, Cloud or SaaS applications to take a serious look at the development environment we chose, Servoy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servoy?

The concerns that I raised with Yvo Boom, Managing Director, were addressed. This is why I continue to advocate for Servoy because they listen to their customers and work hard to make your transition and your projects successful so they are completed on time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Servoy:

Take a few minutes to pick up the phone and contact them. They are great people that want you to succeed and will help you every step of the way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Needed a replacement for Visual FoxPro and needed our application to work on Windows, Macintosh, Linux on desktop, thin client, Cloud and SaaS. We received the Servoy Large Data award for managing a database size that exceeds 20TB. We host our own mail tracking and currently track nearly one trillion pieces of mail since over the past several years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
