PhoneGap [EOL] vs Temenos Quantum comparison

"For me, PhoneGap happens to be quite useful as I can share my existing code (javascript code) on different platforms, and I therefore do not have to do the same thing on different platforms."

"The product makes it easy to start developing cross-platform HTML5-based applications for iPhone, Android and Windows Phone based devices."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"The best feature is the Kony Studio, which is the product that is used to develop interfaces."

"With the new VM releases, it is a faster product with more abilities that benefit the user."

"The best thing about Temenos Quantum is how it smoothly connects with Temenos Fabric. This simplifies our quantum application by handling identity, authentication, and security tasks seamlessly, saving us from extra coding."

"The main benefit lies in its exceptional speed of implementation."

"The most valuable feature is usability. You can develop components inside it and reuse them in different parts of your application, wherever needed. You can replicate them. There's also a Quantum Fabric on the back end, which provides a middle layer between your database and the third-party systems you need to integrate. It also provides the integration to handle all sorts of exceptions and timeouts on the Fabric. This makes it easy to troubleshoot errors coming from third-party APIs."

"Because it's a generic platform, it doesn't fully leverage all the subtleties of some of the platforms it runs on."

"Performance is not good, especially if the application is loaded with graphics."

"Temenos Quantum is not quite stable yet."

"The technology of the solution needs an update. It is deficient in terms of connectivity."

"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."

"There are many issues when integrating with native sides when building an Android application of the retail accelerator or an iOS application of the retail actuator. We have to incorporate on the native side of things, which creates a lot of issues. Temenos Quantum is a proprietary product and not open source. There is not much information available on the internet for developers to reference when solving issues. You have to contact the help desk, who will then give you an appointment and work to resolve the issue. In terms of what Temenos can do better, they can make the product more mature so that we do not encounter as many black holes when encountering an issue."

"One area where Temenos Quantum could improve is in the flexibility of widgets and additional libraries."

"When developing our application, we also encountered certain issues related to delays and time-consuming builds."

"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"

"Temenos Quantum needs to improve its usability. It lacks information on the network. We have to contact the support when we are stuck with something."

"​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​"

"It is expensive solution."

"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."

"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."

"This is an expensive solution, and it is the biggest challenge that we face when we present this platform to customers."
