Good for omni-channel banking, but development ease should be improved
We sell solutions to companies, and I'm a part of the banking team Omni-channel banking is valuable. Development ease should be improved. It should be easier for developers. It is stable. It is scalable. Their support is average. It is neither good nor bad. I would rate them a three out of…

Great user acceptance and reliability, multiple teams not required, with prompt customer service
As a developer, I would say one of the improvements is more plugins. More plugins give you the ability to do more interactions with the framework over the library. As a user, I would say more flexibility in terms of look and feel. So far Ionic is very fluid. You might not really know, it is web-based technology. I know recently it has gone through a lot of updates, but it can also be improved and become stronger. Ionic allows you to get the best customization ever, but there is nothing like having more. The more customization you get, the easier it is for you to be able to build more quality apps.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Omni-channel banking is valuable."
"Ionic is easy to upgrade and is helpful for design purposes. It also is quite common and easy to use. It is a very reliable application. It's easy to write on and print. The UI is easy to use as well. My organization chose to go with Ionic because we can access both Android and iOS applications."
"The most valuable feature of Ionic is the ease of use and the simple connection of the applications."
"I believe it's worth learning this framework because, from what I've seen so far, I think it's a very good solution for hybrid mobile application development."
"Because it's a hybrid mobile app framework, it is easy for us to develop iOS as well as Android apps for our customers with the same resource skills. We didn't have to have separate iOS teams and Android teams to build the apps. We still have to use the Apple Xcode for iOS, but the main development happens with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. We don't have to write separate code bases in scripts for iOS and Android. We create apps using web-based technology."
"The most valuable feature of Ionic is the ease of use and the simple connection of the applications. Additionally, the documentation is good in the Ionic application, and beginners can easily learn and download their own application using Ionic. Everyone can easily switch out, their domain, from native applications to hybrid applications."
"Ionic is the best solution I have used of its kind."
"I like that I can place the code and escalate data storage, and I also like that it's user-friendly and nothing is complex in Ionic."
"The solution can support many languages."
 

Cons

"Development ease should be improved. It should be easier for developers."
"Documentation for migrations and compatibility is insufficient."
"The navigation within this solution could be improved; it is currently quite complicated to move through the different tabs."
"Ionic is a cross-platform framework, so when we compare Ionic with native Android and iOS, we can see the drawbacks."
"Ionic is a cross-platform framework, so when we compare Ionic with native Android and iOS, we can see the drawbacks. For example, if you need to work on very high-level aspects of an application such as animation, even if everything else is not putting load on the app, you will still see high load from the server side."
"There could be better support for augmented reality and other things. Geolocation and background app activity are some of the things that are a little more clumsy at the moment and could be improved."
"The supported document on this solution could be improved."
"Ionic's UI component doesn't always look like the native mobile app."
"Ionic could improve in the Native mode because while we do testing it is difficult to find the root cause of problems. It could be more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an on-prem solution. It comes at a one-time cost, and then there is probably a yearly subscription."
"You can use the free version, but if you still want to buy it, the price starts from $499/month."
"You don't have to pay anything except for certain projects. For example, Appflow has some costs related to it but you don't have to use it. You can also pay for extra support."
"I think most of the plugins for Ionic are open source, and you can do a lot with many of the basic features. However, if you need to use a premium plugin for something like extra scroll list functionality, Ionic will ask for a certain sum of money."
"Ionic is an open source solution, and there are no hidden fees."
"Ionic is an open-source solution, it is free."
"The starting cost for the enterprise option is around one hundred dollars per month."
"The solution's open source option is free with no licensing fees."
"We pay 50,000 dinars per month."
