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

"One of the main advantages I look for with titanium is its cross platform development (iPhone, iPad, iPod, Android, Windows, Linux and OS X)."
"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."
"This product is a powerful, cross-platform application development platform."
"I found Axway Appcelerator packed with awesome features, that it was easy to learn and easy to build cross-platform."
"It is easy to create builds and distribution is very easy."
"The integration capabilities of GeneXus are highly valuable for our organization"
"GeneXus evolves with technology."
"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most valuable feature of this solution for our business, as it allows our clients to create new systems based on their outdated databases, across all API's."
"I find the implementation process of GeneXus to be easy."
"The front-end features are the most valuable."
"With the solution, I can work a normal day. I can plan my work and any other activities for days ahead."
"The most valuable feature is that GeneXus works with several languages. It's possible to develop chatbots and other functionalities."
"In Knowledge Base, being able to model the workflow before developing the screens is great. We first work with the tables or the transactions using GeneXus and then we work on the screens."
 

Cons

"It has hung many times during login and use. Also, it needs a little enhancing for debugging for Android apps."
"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 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."
"The front-end with GeneXus is not as good as the back-end."
"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."
"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."
"GeneXus is a wonderful tool for the backend. It's the best in the world, but for the frontend, GeneXus needs to improve. There should be easier steps for managing various aspects, such as alerts and messages to show to the end-users."
"GeneXus's user interface has room for improvement."
"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."
"The graphical interface could be improved. I also notice some performance problems on hardware that should be more than adequate. GeneXus uses a lot of RAM and other computer resources."
