We performed a comparison between GeneXus and SAP Mobile Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Mobile Development Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"I like that it's very compatible with other tools. The most important feature is getting the developer to focus on the project's business case. It's not about focusing on how I can command this or how I can develop a front end, or how I can work with the advantages. The developer should focus on the business case of the project. No need to focus on connecting the database to the server or connecting the server and the front end. The developer can concentrate on the views."
"The front-end features are the most valuable."
"I find the implementation process of GeneXus to be easy."
"It is fast in creating systems and connects to the database quickly."
"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."
"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most valuable feature of this solution for our business, as it allows our clients to create new systems based on their outdated databases, across all API's."
"The most valuable feature is that GeneXus works with several languages. It's possible to develop chatbots and other functionalities."
"Both platforms, the SAP Mobile Platform, and SAP, are highly valuable for our company because they facilitate integration, which can be expensive. It's very convenient to connect and create billing accounts through the SAP Mobile Platform."
"Two of the very fascinating features that make SAP Mobile Platform stand out from other platforms are its offline capability and integration capability."
"The initial setup is not overly complex."
"One valuable feature of SAP Mobile Platform is its enterprise-grade standard and maintained APIs, available out of the box for easy integration with various systems."
"Technical support is helpful."
"It's not that difficult to set up."
"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."
"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."
"The tool needs to be tuned before being used. You need some experience to get the best out of the tool."
"The front-end with GeneXus is not as good as the back-end."
"It would be helpful to have additional assisted processing with training."

"SAP has announced that they'll be ending the support on the SAP platform."
"If it was low code or no code it would be ideal."
"The licensing model is a bit dated."
"One drawback is that SAP Mobile Platform apps are only available through the browser, making offline capability more challenging to implement."
"The toolkit to develop front end applications, especially native applications, is not that good."
