Featured Reviews

Zain Omer - PeerSpot reviewer
Software Engineer (Kony-Temenos | Android) at Xpert Digital
A stable and scalable product that offers ease of coding and designing to build applications
There isn't a need for any improvement in Android SDK since they provide users with two or three updates in a year, making it quite stable. The security part in Android SDK depends on how you build an application using the tool so you can apply some security to your application. The reason why Temenos Quantum is the best security tool is because it uses a middleware named Fabric, so the APIs are connected from Fabric to Temenos Quantum. The middleware offered by Temenos is really strong. If I compare the security offered by Android to that of Temenos Quantum, Android will lose in terms of security. You can create a secure application with Android SDK. The amount of security offered by Android SDK is less when compared to Temenos, making it an area of concern where improvement can be made. I don't think Android SDK needs to add any features because they give updates frequently.

Enhancing banking with robust security but lacking in comprehensive support
When it comes to their support team, my experience hasn't been particularly positive. We've had numerous interactions with them, and a lot of issues have arisen during these encounters. Most of the time, the support team has been unable to provide guidance or in-depth knowledge about their own product and it seems that the development team, the core team, understands the product far better than the support team.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Wide range of resources available (code, snippets, examples, samples, blogs...etc)."
"A very good mobile app development platform with support for developing on various platforms like Wiindows, Linux, Mac, etc."
"Being an Android developer this SDK platform will continue to grow as the developer community invests in it."
"Android is an open mobile device platform, and many vendors are migrating to use it; hence it holds the future for the mobile market."
"Best SDK"
"The IDE is easy to use and has a ton of APIs that allow you to tie into Google's large base of services offered."
"Considering those benefits, such as built-in emulators and smoother debugging, I have noticed specific outcomes such as faster release cycles and fewer bugs."
"The best thing about Android SDK is its extensive graphics compared to iOS."
"We can use a single channel to create an interface for iOS, Android, and other channels."
"Overall, Kony is the best mobile platform on Gartner, where it has been at the top for the last seven years."
"The visualizer and API manager are super useful. It's easy to create applications for the agent. Automations and other complex tasks can be hard, but it's mostly straightforward. You can create forms and populate tables."
"I like the complete, professional social site."
"Comparing other solutions with Temenos Quantum, the later is less mature and presents several issues. Implementing Temenos Quantum has been challenging, resembling a nightmare compared to the smoother experience with the other."
"With the new VM releases, it is a faster product with more abilities that benefit the user."
"It is an important solution for reducing the development efforts by developing a mobile application efficiently, in a shorter period of time, across multiple platforms, such as Android and iOS."
"The most valuable features of Temenos Quantum are user-friendliness and customizability."
 

Cons

"Much more work and knowledge involved."
"The security implementation is the only area of concern in Android SDK where a bit of enhancements can help."
"The development environment of Android SDK could improve."
"Google has a monopoly on tools for Android app development, so Android SDK is the only choice available."
"Android SDK could be better if its integration for Flutter was improved; I understand it is tailored for Kotlin and Java apps, but many of us are using Flutter."
"It is an excellent solution, and it would be nice to get fewer updates."
"There are security issues in the Android platform, so it is more vulnerable to attack."
"Developing apps for tablets is comparatively difficult because the emulator is extremely slow."
"There is definitely room for improvement, especially in the areas of AI, AR, and DR for mobile and web applications"
"We would like to have widgets for graphs and analytics, as well as the integration of machine learning."
"Temenos Quantum is not quite stable yet."
"It would be highly beneficial if future iterations of Temenos could incorporate support for QR-based payment methods, as it would enhance the platform's capabilities and align it more closely with modern payment trends"
"In terms of technical support, I think that they are lacking."
"The product needs more native features."
"Using the API manager can be complicated when you're dealing with multiple teams, projects, and APIs. Quantum doesn't have user-based access, so I can't restrict parts of the project to specific users."
"The security and the interface technology could be better in Temenos Quantum. Additionally, a module that can display all the activities that have been done in the system would be helpful."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an open-source platform."
"I am using the free version of Android SDK."
"Android SDK can be cheap and can go high in terms of prices, and it all depends on who the customers are and what kind of application you want. One application may cost 5,000 USD and can go up from 1,00,000 to 2,00,000 USD."
"Many countries, even those with fewer resources, prefer using Android SDK because it is cheap."
"Android SDK is essentially an open-source product on which anybody can work."
"​The price is too high. The annual cost for the Kony license is very high. Every year you have to renew it in order to maintain it​"
"The product is expensive. First, they must purchase the product, and then pay an annual renewal fee. The renewal fee depends on the product details and the license term’s length. Clients can buy licenses for five or ten years and pay for them upfront, or they can set up a yearly renewal cycle."
"This is an expensive solution, and it is the biggest challenge that we face when we present this platform to customers."
"Temenos Quantum is an expensive tool. Taking into consideration my company's use of Temenos Quantum for a bank, the costs attached to the solution ranged from 3,00,000 to 5,00,000 USD for building one application for the bank."
"It is expensive solution."
