We performed a comparison between OutSystems, Temenos Quantum, and Xamarin Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about OutSystems, Mendix, Salesforce and others in Mobile Development Platforms."The visual program of OutSystems is one of the major advantages of this solution."
"The most valuable features of OutSystems are the user-friendly platform. The drag-and-drop feature is great. I have used other rapid application development tools before, but they were not as advanced as OutSystems. With the previous tools, I had to manually build certain features, but OutSystems does it automatically."
"OutSystems is easy to use."
"I really like the one-click publish feature in OutSystems. In other development tools/languages, it's not as easy. I also like how easily I can manage all my projects in one place."
"OutSystems is a low-code solution. Most features are like drag-and-drop, so it's pretty easy to work. Thus it helps the organization by saving time for developers."
"Their out-of-the-box UI is quite good."
"We have no complaints surrounding both the scalability and stability of this solution."
"OutSystems' low-cost approach has positively impacted our productivity, because we were able to develop faster with OutSystems, enabling us to implement many changes during our sprint."
"The visualizer and API manager are super useful. It's easy to create applications for the agent. Automations and other complex tasks can be hard, but it's mostly straightforward. You can create forms and populate tables."
"The initial setup of Temenos Quantum was easy."
"We can use a single channel to create an interface for iOS, Android, and other channels."
"With the new VM releases, it is a faster product with more abilities that benefit the user."
"The main benefit lies in its exceptional speed of implementation."
"You can do rapid development across multiple platforms."
"It is a single platform that can cater to mobile and web development requirements, making it convenient for businesses looking to transition into the digital space."
"Its greatest advantage lies in its exceptional security and robustness."
"It significantly reduces development and test costs, and ensures that there is synergy between the platforms on product features and user experience."
"The solution's most valuable asset is its shared code base in C# that is better for large apps."
"It is a true native solution, and we can use the cross-platform framework."
"Plugins like MvvmCross make a developer’s life easy."
"For me, developing apps for iOS and Android is a dream came true, without migrating to Objective-C or Java. Xamarin enables me to do so."
"It allows us to reuse our knowledge of C# and .NET Framework."
"Xamarin makes it easy to create white label applications for all platforms."
"It has significantly reduced the skill barrier for development and testers."
"The technical features are good, but the actual commercialization is out of reach."
"It needs improvement in the AI capability."
"The solution's testing framework needs to be improved, and the workflow should be slightly more mature."
"We had some lagging issues under high data loads, and the solution needed to be customized to improve this."
"The resource availability needs to be increased."
"Mobile apps should have been fully native."
"It's difficult to do the component version control. I would like them to add more studying materials."
"Mobile apps need improvement."
"Temenos Quantum is not quite stable yet."
"One area where Temenos Quantum could improve is in the flexibility of widgets and additional libraries."
"The security and the interface technology could be better in Temenos Quantum. Additionally, a module that can display all the activities that have been done in the system would be helpful."
"The UI lacks flexibility, especially regarding customizations. There are numerous issues at the fabric end, and working with the visualizer is extremely challenging. Basic development tasks require a high-end machine, and even clicking on an icon initiates a thirty-second processing time. The challenges mainly revolve around fabric and content."
"There is definitely room for improvement, especially in the areas of AI, AR, and DR for mobile and web applications"
"When developing our application, we also encountered certain issues related to delays and time-consuming builds."
"We would like to have widgets for graphs and analytics, as well as the integration of machine learning."
"It would be highly beneficial if future iterations of Temenos could incorporate support for QR-based payment methods, as it would enhance the platform's capabilities and align it more closely with modern payment trends"
"In Xamarin.Forms, we have the option to preview our UI designs, but the functionality can be limited. So, this is not fully functional. Since I have some knowledge of iOS, where when you write code or design in the storyboard, your design is immediately visible in the preview."
"They need to improve performance, especially for the Android platform. Also, some controls are missing in the Xamarin framework when compared to native controls; for example, the checkbox control."
"The Xamarin.Forms could improve."
"Xamarin Platform is missing the code renderer."
"The monitoring of the remote devices is not good as it should be extended along. It would be useful if the log is more integrated with the central console. I am not sure it can be accessed but it would be better."
"The architecture in the Xamarin Platform has to improve, there are some features missing."
"Xamarin's profiling tools are only available for the highest tier of MSDN subscription and compatibility with platform-native profiling tools is rather lacking. This causes friction when working on performance-related issues."
"I would like to see hot reload, similar to what Flutter has out-of-the-box. There is "Live Reload" but it’s still in preview and was only recently announced."
