Internal System Coordinator at Red CEDIA
Offers a simplified architecture with outstanding integration capabilities
The integration capabilities of GeneXus are highly valuable for our organization. The metadata obtained within the logic of different systems is also vital. Due to the solution, our company team doesn't have to work with multiple languages and integrations can be made with C Sharp. JavaScript can also be used with GeneXus, the tool takes charge of all the rest and has a simple architecture. The solution can be used out of the box without facing any issues and nothing much needs to be done with frameworks. In our case we need to use Python with GeneXus, we use Ironpython to embed python code in C# .

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Enables me to use the same web technology to develop cross-platform native apps. The cloud-based one-click app build system is a valuable feature as well."
"It is easy to create builds and distribution is very easy."
"This product is a powerful, cross-platform application development platform."
"One of the main advantages I look for with titanium is its cross platform development (iPhone, iPad, iPod, Android, Windows, Linux and OS X)."
"I found Axway Appcelerator packed with awesome features, that it was easy to learn and easy to build cross-platform."
"I like that it's very compatible with other tools. The most important feature is getting the developer to focus on the project's business case. It's not about focusing on how I can command this or how I can develop a front end, or how I can work with the advantages. The developer should focus on the business case of the project. No need to focus on connecting the database to the server or connecting the server and the front end. The developer can concentrate on the views."
"In Knowledge Base, being able to model the workflow before developing the screens is great. We first work with the tables or the transactions using GeneXus and then we work on the screens."
"I find the implementation process of GeneXus to be easy."
"The most valuable feature is that GeneXus works with several languages. It's possible to develop chatbots and other functionalities."
"The integration capabilities of GeneXus are highly valuable for our organization"
"After you go through the learning process, this solution works extremely quickly in terms of enabling an application in a production environment."
"The solution provides ease of programming and the speed of delivery of demands."
"With GeneXus, we can create logical representations of transactions in the form of objects."
 

Cons

"Titanium Studio, provided for development on titanium, happens to ignore changes while building and at times it stops printing console messages, so that every time you have to test your code, you have to clean your project."
"It has hung many times during login and use. Also, it needs a little enhancing for debugging for Android apps."
"Scalability is not so good if you have a complex UX."
"Unlike PhoneGap Titanium, this product relies heavily on the existing Android ADK or iOS SDKs."
"It would be awesome if they would work on improving the speed of the app building process."
"It would be helpful if the company would provide additional assisted processing with training, more instances where you can find training."
"The graphical interface could be improved. I also notice some performance problems on hardware that should be more than adequate. GeneXus uses a lot of RAM and other computer resources."
"The tool needs to be tuned before being used. You need some experience to get the best out of the tool."
"I told them to add something about Angular. They're already working on adding it."
"It's expensive for a company."
"The solution is very expensive."
"There are issues in integrating it with other solutions, like Control V."
"It would be better if GeneXus had a wiki. The developer needs some experience to work with the tools. It would be better if they could improve the community. If we have some problem, I open a ticket that takes us to a board, and I have to describe my issue in detail. If the tools have a general community for us to explore with some videos or some articles, I think that that may help the developer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is good."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten"
"The tool's price is good."
"The solution is very expensive."
"People tend to work with GeneXus if it's cheap, but GeneXus does have licensing policies...Moreover, the cost of resourcing work in GeneXus may make it more expensive than other programming languages."
"I know that its licenses are generally per year, and in the past, the license for GeneXus was around $5,000, but I don't know what's the current price of the GeneXus license."
"This solution offers multi-plan licenses, depending on the size of the company and the features required, as opposed to being priced per user/device."
"I don't know about the price because I am an employee, but I hear it's cheaper than other tools."
