Good for omni-channel banking, but development ease should be improved
We sell solutions to companies, and I'm a part of the banking team Omni-channel banking is valuable. Development ease should be improved. It should be easier for developers. It is stable. It is scalable. Their support is average. It is neither good nor bad. I would rate them a three out of…

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Omni-channel banking is valuable."
"It is really a rapid platform where you can minimize the time-to-market, where you can also engage the customer from business perspectives throughout the entire cycle of the development."
"We respond much quicker to challenges, our clients are more profitable and our staff love the opportunity to model and not write boring repetitive code."
"There is a free version of the solution you can use."
"The low-code feature has helped my team and made my work easier because there are default templates, so we don't need to create or write code."
"We like Mendix a lot; in terms of technology, it is really good, we find it intuitive and easy to use, and we are quite happy with the solution and look forward to moving to the cloud."
"Mendix allows for faster development while saving on fewer FTWs (full-time workers), a win-win in most cases."
"Overall the platform is really good."
"I think that the workflow and automation features are quite good."
 

Cons

"Development ease should be improved. It should be easier for developers."
"While the community is great, they need to work on making their direct technical support services better."
"Lastly, the licensing model does not scale well with many users. This is a huge problem as apps that have many users become very expensive and can kill the business case."
"Improvements for Mendix include that sometimes it gets hung while loading."
"Generally, the customer support takes around two weeks to respond to support tickets, but everything gets resolved."
"Feature-wise and in terms of technical aspects, Mendix is excellent, but its pricing is steep."
"It is expensive."
"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."
"The area of this product that needs improving is the templates in which the user uses to create documents."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an on-prem solution. It comes at a one-time cost, and then there is probably a yearly subscription."
"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."
"Licensing costs are similar to those for all other IT technology, but they vary by region."
"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."
"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."
"Pricing used to be complex, but Mendix has improved that quite a bit."
"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."
"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."
"Mendix licensing cost is based on the number of apps you have on the server. At the basic level, it is free of charge, so that seems reasonable, but once you go beyond that, and when it comes to the number of users on the app, that basic structure doesn't work, and the pricing tends to get a little bit steep."
