I like that it is quite easy for people outside from the IT world to connect with it and to start a career in IT. It happened to me and I'm pretty happy with the decision that I've made by embracing the challenge of working with OutSystems.

System integrator and or customer needs to know their proprietary language and the pricing is not very feasible. it doesn't come with any enterprise integration apdotor and customer or SI needs to build their own instead.
