Its graphic interface, which allows you to develop rapidly and in a structured way is a valuable feature.
What is most valuable?
How has it helped my organization?
This question is not entirely relevant for us, since our organization develops Mendix systems for clients.
What needs improvement?
I cannot think of any immediate issues. Mendix has an active community, providing requests, advice and add-ons. Each new Mendix version incorporates suggestions from this community. I believe this is why it meets the needs of most users very well.
For how long have I used the solution?
We've been using it for two and a half years.

What was my experience with deployment of the solution?
We had no issues wit the deployment.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
When a mainframe system with a very large database and batch process was rebuilt in Mendix, we came across performance issues.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We had no issues scaling for the needs of our customers.
How are customer service and support?
Customer Service:
It's good.
Technical Support:It's good.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I haven't used any solution that's similar.
How was the initial setup?
It's very straightforward. I used to be a mainframe tester and was able to start developing in Mendix in a short period of time.
What about the implementation team?
The applications can run in the Mendix cloud, making implementation very easy: Mendix provides an easy to use interface.
They can also run on premise, implementation will then be dependent on the client's application environment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
As a developer I have very little knowledge of this.
What other advice do I have?
You should try it. You can set up a new project for free in a very short time.
Disclosure: I am a real user, and this review is based on my own experience and opinions.

The ease of use for complex development structures is good. The out of the box crud screens can be made more user friendly.
Valuable Features:

Improvements to My Organization:
We developed a tool/product called Survey Quest. The tool enable the user to do perform surveys and improveme them as well as its functionality.
Room for Improvement:
The out of the box crud screens can be made more user friendly, but then again it is a business application tool to quickly generate crud screens for enterprise application, not focused on public facing/entertainment values.
Use of Solution:
I've used it for two years.
Deployment Issues:
There were no deployment issues.
Stability Issues:
The system was performing not as quick/fast as it should have.
Scalability Issues:
There were memory leaks after a week of it being live. We need to clear the memory once a week.
Initial Setup:
It was straightforward.
Implementation Team:
We developed a solution in house.
ROI:
ROIs at this stage is not good because of the high license fees.
Other Solutions Considered:
We also looked at Microsoft/Java options. We initially thought the license fees and speed of development was too slow.
Other Advice:
I was involved developing a solution. We also did a site for skillsmap in mendix that was live for one and a half years.
Disclosure: My company has a business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer: We had a business relation ship (BCX with Mendix) . It came to an end because of license fees.

Managing Director at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
In the pension project we worked in sprints of two weeks in which we created functionality which was going to be tested by the business instantly.
Valuable Features:
Mendix is an excellent tool to put the business in charge again for realizing IT projects. In the pension project we worked in sprints of two weeks in which we created functionality which was going to be tested by the business instantly. In this way the business stayed connected with the IT solution and was in charge of the project. Mendix is an excellent tool to execute the scrum way of working in a successful way.
Improvements to My Organization:
Often the business comes to the conclusion that it is not working as they had thought it would after they have seen a first version. In Mendix it is really easy to show this first version and to change it according to the business needs.
Room for Improvement:
After two weeks the business will be able to see what they had in mind and will be able to validate whether the IT people have understood what they meant but also whether the solution is going to work as they had in mind.
Deployment Issues:
We haven't had any issues with deployment.
Stability Issues:
We haven't had any issues with stability.
Scalability Issues:
We haven't had any issues with scalability.
