Has improved development quality and speed but has introduced persistent IDE slowdowns
In recent years, the IDE has been more buggy and slower, and although there have been more features added, I would like to see more stability, as some areas that used to work for a fairly long time are now slower in my development, which feels like a step back. I choose a seven mainly due to the issues we've faced with slowdowns and bugs during development, while runtime has been very stable, and the overall output on Mendix platform is still good; there is definitely some room for improvement, and I would probably have given it an eight or even a nine if those issues weren't hurting my developer output for the past few years. Overall, Mendix platform is stable, but the IDE could be better.

Pros

"The solution is simple. It's very easy to deploy, and there's no risk with sorting that out. It's very fast to develop the screens and the modelling."
"Mendix code and coding logic are very visual. It looks like a flow chart rather than lines of code. Rapid development is what drew us to Mendix."
"The best features Mendix offers in my experience include its readiness to go to market, which reduces the effort and time consumed in developing an application end-to-end."
"Mendix provides the ability to create solutions that fill gaps that I would otherwise be unable to address with standard software."
"What I found most valuable in Mendix is that it's very much suitable for mobile apps such as native Android or IOS supported mobile apps. The multiple features of the platform are very, very attractive and very popular. Mendix has technical features such as microflows and nanoflows. You can also access data models in the platform. These are the features that are very, very strong in Mendix. I got my hands dirty on other low-code platforms, but I have not seen such strong features in them compared to the microflows, nanoflows, and data model access that are in Mendix, including creating and integration. The platform has out-of-the-box adapters or out-of-the-box-connectors that you can integrate with different interface applications such as SAP, Salesforce, Oracle EBS, etc."
"Since using Mendix, I can say that mostly the development time would be a year, but we can complete it within three months with Mendix, which is very time-saving; in my career, I have completed around 9 to 10 projects."
"The most valuable features of the product are its ease of use and speed. My friend and I find it helpful as a team of just two developers."
"The most valuable features of Mendix are the drag and drop functions, the data entities, domain models, and all the related features."
"On a recent project, using Mendix cut development time by about 40-50% compared to traditional coding for a workflow app."
 

Cons

"The solution is expensive. They should try to improve their pricing strategy."
"You need experienced programmers and developers to understand this solution."
"Customization is limited compared to traditional coding, and UI adjustments can feel restrictive."
"I would like to see more documentation as well as how-to documents."
"There is always a layer of custom code required."
"Mendix could improve in customization and UI, UX flexibility, native mobile development, and agile tooling for developers."
"I think Mendix can be improved by supporting automated tests more easily."
"A constraint of Mendix is that you have to look for the required plugins which takes up development time. There are a limited number of Mendix experts in the market."
"The platform still has many areas for improvement. If I compare apples to apples, the PWA features of Mendix could be improved, for example, I wouldn't recommend creating a B2C or B2B marketplace or web portals on Mendix, but there's a tendency for people to still do it through the systems provided by my company, particularly implement B2B or B2C marketplace, versus using eBay or Shopify. On the web portal front, Mendix still needs to improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Mendix is not open source, but its license cost is cheap, particularly when compared to the Appian license. The license model would depend on how many users you have and how many applications you are creating. If you are creating a single app, you just need to have a single app license, so it's free. If you want a multiple app license to cover two thousand or three thousand users, for example, internal users or external users, then you need to pay for the license. There's also a license model for above three thousand or four thousand, or five thousand internal and external users."
"There is a license required to use Mendix. The solution's price is high, but it is best suited for enterprise companies that have the budget. It is not for small or medium-sized businesses."
"I would not recommend the solution to small and medium-sized businesses because it’s expensive. It’s great for big organizations. I rate the pricing as a three out of ten."
"Licensing costs are similar to those for all other IT technology, but they vary by region."
"Mendix seems a bit expensive. But in terms of wanting to have less developers and higher velocity, the total cost of ownership is fine. It's not cheap, though."
"From a commercial point of view, we would like them to change that they currently sell it as a platform, but as a customer you have to decide upfront the usage of the platform. We would like to have Mendix sell it as a pay as you go model: You pay for what you use, and you don't pay for what you don't use."
"The solution is a bit expensive compared to others"
"Initially, we started with a year for approximately $25,000, and if we need to expand the number of seats then we will increase it."
