Mitchel Mol BGS - PeerSpot reviewer
CTO at Blue Green Solutions
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.
Ross Macadam - PeerSpot reviewer
Director at iicon ltd
Has faced challenges adapting to evolving capture methods and competitive integrations
It's difficult to say what I'd improve in Tungsten TotalAgility because we haven't been actively marketing that particular product in the last probably six to nine months. The speed of product development means that my experience with it is likely out of date in terms of the product suite capabilities. The difficulty with customers nowadays is that they are subject to the winds of change in terms of the adoption of cloud technologies and the offerings those cloud technologies bring. Microsoft, for instance, is rapidly filling in the spaces between various product areas that other vendors typically owned. That makes it difficult for customers to settle on their functional requirements because the offers are competing in the same space. I look for more integration with mainstream subscription based platforms, more security integration, and possibly some more lifecycle management features. However, the difficulty with that is the competition with existing options that people have in their subscription library.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Enables us to rapidly create a complex application; we are also able to customize features that stakeholders in the corporation want to see, something that could not be done with other software, and our workflows and processes have evolved and improved, as the fast iterations allow us to be nimble, get feedback from users, and do rapid updates."
"They see faster time to market for new software, improved maintainability, and higher user satisfaction as the main improvements."
"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."
"The integrated security saves a lot of time, especially when it comes to setting up user-roles and security. Also, database updates work automatically. There is no need to write queries to update the database, once you make an update."
"I have been using this solution for customer authentication, as well as scientific applications, and it has performed brilliantly so far."
"The user experience is great."
"The most valuable features of the product are its ease of use and speed. My friend and I find it helpful as a team of just two developers."
"On a recent project, using Mendix cut development time by about 40-50% compared to traditional coding for a workflow app."
"The AI-powered features are incredibly important for operational efficiency; they are a game changer in terms of the accuracy of OCR and ICR."
"We have automated more than five business process using this tool."
"It is user-friendly and has good documentation."
"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."
"It's a growing tool that offers a complete package of BPM, case management, and capture capabilities."
"It is a stable solution; I have worked with many big companies where they scan millions of pages every year and hundreds of users are using it every day, and it is a stable application; it is reliable, there are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn’t crash or freeze."
"One feature I like is that it makes the matrix easy for an unstructured document."
"We are currently processing over 60,000 invoices per month with no more than 25 individuals."
 

Cons

"Occasionally, there is downtime if an upgrade is happening in the application."
"The platform still has many areas for improvement."
"Mendix is slightly less scalable than I'd like."
"For small companies the pricing can be a bit steep."
"We need better reporting and visualisation as this is a critical part of each app and currently the reporting side has to rely on external BI tools."
"I would like to see more documentation as well as how-to documents."
"The solution has been very expensive overall. It was not cheap."
"In the beginning, it is difficult to learn and work with."
"I'd like to have better inbuilt features so that we could see some added value."
"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."
"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."
"Kofax TotalAgility is quite vast and complex as a product."
"Kofax needs to improve the low-code or citizen developers rather than focusing on other cloud solutions for data extraction."
"There needs to be more accessible certification and better pricing."
"It’s not truly low code yet, as every two or three projects, you will have a situation where you have to go behind the essential things."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I would not recommend the solution to small and medium-sized businesses because it’s expensive. It’s great for big organizations. I rate the pricing as a three out of ten."
"Licensing costs are similar to those for all other IT technology, but they vary by region."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive."
"It has a perpetual license. You pay once in a lifetime for the volume of scans you will do and the number of users you will have. You can have participants or regular users, and you can have developers and administrators. So, once you purchase it, it is for a lifetime, and then every year, you have to pay for the maintenance. There is an annual maintenance cost, which is about 18% of the licensing cost."
"The licensing cost for Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive, though I'm unable to give you the range, the sales representatives of my company say that the product is quite expensive."
"The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."
"It is slightly more expensive than other tools."
