Mendix vs. Softr

I think it's well suited if you have data available and you want to create customized solutions for different types of users. Mendix is very good at doing that. It allows you to do it very easily. So those are good use cases.

Softr has all it takes to revolutionize most companies backoffice creating customized "micro saas" that brings a lot of productivity and digitalize most proceses. Since it is very easy to use, any user can take control of the application develpment and that is very powerfull. If you have application that will have a lot of users, Softr may not be the best option for you because of the pricing.

• Upgradeability used to be somewhat of an issue. Version 7 looks to be handling this better than previous versions.

• The pricing could be better
• It could have more AI features
• Better general applications aesthetics

Drawing from my hands-on experience with Mendix, I can confidently state that the platform aptly fulfills our needs for web application development. Mendix stands out by providing a marketplace replete with pre-built templates and widgets. This feature empowers users to leverage readily available components, hastening the development process and contributing to an enhanced overall usability of the platform.

Softr is for anyone. It can easily take you from a newbie to a builder. You can have a quick start using the templates and then start customizing them to your special needs. If you work with Airtable as a data base then you are in great waters since both applications integrate perfectly with each other.

I think their support system is really professional. They answer question quickly and accurately. They have a ticket system that allows to track the current status of a request. The only point for imporvement is a way for me to postpone an answer. Tickets get closed automatically after some time. I feel that the user should have the option to change to an on hold status, allowing for more time to respond to a ticket.

Because most of our apps work closely with our main system (ERP) and other tools, we went with Mendix. It's good at easily connecting with lots of different systems, which is exactly what we need. Another thing we like about it is that it can handle growth well, and its pricing is straightforward and easy to understand.
