How Alternatives Are Selected

1. OutSystems

4.5

OutSystems is a best-in-class Rapid Application Development platform that successfully bridges the gap between speed and enterprise grade robustness. It enables teams to deliver complex web and mobile applications significantly faster than traditional development approaches, without compromising on architecture, security or scalability. During our trial run against a .NET application with the same functionality, we found OutSystems to be 375% efficient. What sets OutSystems apart from many low-code platforms is that it is not limited to tactical solutions. We have used it to build mission-critical, enterprise-scale applications involving complex business logic, integration with multiple backend systems and strict non-functional requirements, including large governance projects. The visual development model combined with reusable components, strong integration capabilities and tooling, and built-in life-cycle management, allows development teams to move from concept to production-ready at a pace that is difficult to achieve with conventional stacks. The platform scales nicely both technically and organisationally, making it a versatile ecosystem. Recent advancements around cloud native architecture and AI assisted development via Mentor have further strengthened its position as a future ready platform.Read all insights and reviews for OutSystems

2. Appian Platform

4.5

What has worked well is the speed at which you can move from idea to a working application. The Visual Process Modeler is intuitive. Another strong point is that you don't have to invent enterprise-grade controls from scratch, they're already embedded in the platform. On the downside, complex UI customization can become challenging. Also, poorly designed data queries can quickly impact responsiveness.Read all insights and reviews for Appian Platform

7. Kissflow

4.5

My overall experience with Kissflow has been great, and we have relied on Kissflow as a workflow automation tool for the legal side of our business. That said, Kissflow has helped our team streamline many of our approval processes and reduce the need for manual handoffs. I develop internal applications, and I think the low-code setup is an incredible fit for my needs because it lets me go from ideas about workflows directly to process apps in a very short period. As mentioned, we automated workflows that used to be highly dependent on email, leading to faster turnarounds and more consistency in operations. The interface is still intuitive as I build out more complex logic, which has kept enhancements pretty straightforward. A huge positive feature is the responsiveness of the Kissflow support team. Whenever, I had questions or ran into unexpected behavior, they were extremely quick to respond with practical guidance and clear next steps. These points have combined to make a strongly positive customer experience. While improvements to the debugging toolset and performance when working with large data sets would be welcome, the overall product experience and the quality of support have been consistently strong.Read all insights and reviews for Kissflow
