Offers a simplified architecture with outstanding integration capabilities
The integration capabilities of GeneXus are highly valuable for our organization. The metadata obtained within the logic of different systems is also vital. Due to the solution, our company team doesn't have to work with multiple languages and integrations can be made with C Sharp. JavaScript can also be used with GeneXus, the tool takes charge of all the rest and has a simple architecture. The solution can be used out of the box without facing any issues and nothing much needs to be done with frameworks. In our case we need to use Python with GeneXus, we use Ironpython to embed python code in C# .

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I found Axway Appcelerator packed with awesome features, that it was easy to learn and easy to build cross-platform."
"Enables me to use the same web technology to develop cross-platform native apps. The cloud-based one-click app build system is a valuable feature as well."
"One of the main advantages I look for with titanium is its cross platform development (iPhone, iPad, iPod, Android, Windows, Linux and OS X)."
"It is easy to create builds and distribution is very easy."
"This product is a powerful, cross-platform application development platform."
"The most valuable feature is that GeneXus works with several languages. It's possible to develop chatbots and other functionalities."
"It is fast in creating systems and connects to the database quickly, so we can invest more time in resolving the problem and focusing on the cause."
"With the solution, I can work a normal day. I can plan my work and any other activities for days ahead."
"I find the implementation process of GeneXus to be easy."
"With GeneXus, we can create logical representations of transactions in the form of objects."
"The integration module is the most valuable feature of this solution for our business, as it allows our clients to create new systems based on their outdated databases, across all API's."
"GeneXus evolves with technology."
"I like the testing models, which allow me to create unit or interface tests of my programs. It helps us avoid missed deadlines because we can detect all the errors before deploying the new versions of the solution. And I also like the integration with coding managers like DevOps or Jenkins. It enables us to do versioning."
 

Cons

"Unlike PhoneGap Titanium, this product relies heavily on the existing Android ADK or iOS SDKs."
"Titanium Studio, provided for development on titanium, happens to ignore changes while building and at times it stops printing console messages, so that every time you have to test your code, you have to clean your project."
"It has hung many times during login and use. Also, it needs a little enhancing for debugging for Android apps."
"It would be awesome if they would work on improving the speed of the app building process."
"Scalability is not so good if you have a complex UX."
"It would be better if GeneXus had a wiki. The developer needs some experience to work with the tools. It would be better if they could improve the community. If we have some problem, I open a ticket that takes us to a board, and I have to describe my issue in detail. If the tools have a general community for us to explore with some videos or some articles, I think that that may help the developer."
"There are issues in integrating it with other solutions, like Control V."
"GeneXus's user interface has room for improvement."
"Documentation is always an issue. In order to develop with GeneXus, there is very little documentation. The documentation is not clear enough in order to develop a great tool."
"Code generation is highly time-consuming for GeneXus"
"The tool needs to be tuned before being used. You need some experience to get the best out of the tool."
"I told them to add something about Angular. They're already working on adding it."
"We would like to see more extensions and more user controls added to the front-end of this solution, in order to help developers manage the website."
