What I like best is the ease of development combined with the speed of development. When an issue turns up, a first solution can usually be tested within the hour. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The links with other systems can be improved in my opinion. Furthermore, the creation of page layouts is more difficult than it has to be. I hope that with the further development of the web modeler, this will also be picked up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In this tool we don't need to write code every thing can be built very easily and make resuable widgets are available in play store.
Mendix 9 also provide various feature for mobile development Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If we stuck at some place during development very less help available on google. Building complex ui is also not smooth Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Mendix is a Low code Platform tool and the best thing about Mendix is that we can develop complex applications with no coding skills. The best part is it is very easy to use and its desktop modeler is very fast. So the development runs very smoothly even with 4 GB ram. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing much about Mendix that I dislike but it should provide more customization for implementing required solutions. Due to less customization available, we sometimes fail to meet client expectations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The feature I like most about Mendix is its Desktop Modeler. Due to the Desktop Modeler, it becomes very easy to work on projects, and it provides better performance than a web modeler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In Mendix, we can not write SQL queries to perform general DB operations. Though we have QOL, it only works with Java action. Due to which many simple tasks become very complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The development environment of Mendix is just great: easy, out of the box tools combined with a great logic leads to fast development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the UI could do with a boost, but the Mobile Native First is offering some great help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The high level of quality in everything Mendix does is what I like best. I have been working for over a year with Mendix now and the number of high quality additions to the platform in this period is staggering. The modeler works really intuitive, it looks good and is very complete. Peolple at Mendix are very active in supporting their developer community with learning paths, activities, webinars etc. as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The modeler is free to download and use, but your local application will be terminated after 2 - 4 hours. This means that if you are a professional developer, you'll have to rerun your app(s) several times a day. Annoying when you are debugging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
That it allows me to deploy applications. As a person with no IT background i did not believe that it was that easy to deploy and make applications. However, Mendix have shown me that it's possible! For simple things a person does not need a lot of experience, which allow a lot people to learn it and allows people also be more creative as you do not need to work with syntax errors and try to solve them the whole time!

Just a small dislike, but not that critical. I currently like the things I can do with Mendix. The only small thing that I dislike it that with the layout it sometimes makes it difficult to ensure that certain tabs or actions buttons are the right place. Even with placing them or with containers there might be a solution for this. However, I am not certain as I am not that experienced with Mendix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The rapid development of applications and the freedom to add code yourself when needed. Most of the functionality can be build with the default Mendix functionality. For the complex functionality one ore more Java blocks can be added. It's well integrated with Eclipse, so you can easy debug the Java code. With the custom styling it's possible to give the application an unique look.
Also the possibility to work close together with the business makes it attractive to choise for Mendix.
The whole community of Mendix. They organise Meetups to let exports and developers share there knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not all the widget are update frequently to the latest Modeler version.
Creating an application in multiple languages is possible but your not triggerd/forced to translate labels after you edit an existing application. So sometimes you forget to add the translated labels.
The pricing model can be an obstacle for smaller companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the fact that I am able to develop an application in a visual manner, where all the business logic is easily applied. The use of microflows really appeals to me because it keeps the flow of processes clear and concise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would like to be able to have more control over custom styling, without having to resort to the custom.css file. The webmodeller is gaining features rapidly, so I'm waiting patiently for this.
Another point of improvement is the internal database viewer. When creating a sandbox application, and tracking behaviour, I think the built-in database vieuwer is too limited to be useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The easy way to create apps and model the logic behind these apps.
Also Mendix releases often updates with new features and better solutions for our needs.
The possibility of linking development to user stories in their Sprinter application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
That the quality of new Mendix modelers is not tested correct.
The lack of a great user selectable UI/UX. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
