OutSystems Named a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Mobile App Development Platforms for the Second Year in a Row

New report states that mobile app and web development technologies and practices have converged to support digital business

SINGAPORE,July 24,2018 -- OutSystems was again named a Leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Mobile App Development Platforms,positioned highest overall on the ability to execute axis in the entire Magic Quadrant for the second consecutive year.

OutSystems believes this latest Gartner report makes it clear --IT leaders need to deliver a much wider range of experiences to support their enterprise digital transformation initiatives.

Beyond traditional "mobile only" features,the new breed of mobile platforms must support the following:

App diversity,including responsive web apps,wearables,and augmented reality

Full-stack,low-code development supporting everything from UX to back-end integration

End-to-end DevOps and lifecycle management of large app portfolios

Diverse enterprise use cases,including external-facing and internal-facing scenarios

"We believe Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Mobile App Development Platforms lines up exactly with what we're hearing from our customers," said Paulo Rosado,OutSystems CEO. "Modern development teams need solutions that support incredibly diverse enterprise application use cases that can be developed and changed at the speed of business."

According to Gartner,"Leaders have a strong combination of Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision. In the MADP sector,this means that Leaders are not only good at cross-platform development,deployment and management across the full life cycle,but also demonstrate strong vision for multi-experience development support. A Leader must also have open architectures and support open standards,while showing a solid understanding of IT requirements,and scalable sales channels and partnerships. Leaders must provide platforms that are easy to purchase,program,deploy and upgrade,and which can connect to a range of systems of record and third-party cloud services."

"Since I discovered OutSystems my life as a developer changed. Now I am able to develop an application from start to finish in less time and with better quality....OutSystems as a development platform for mobile devices has the advantage of integrating,in the same unifying language,versions for iOS and Android,breaking the barriers between both." -Application/OutSystems Developer in the Construction Industry. Read Review Here.

"Quickest Path To Manufacturing Digital Transformation. We have been very satisfied with the capabilities of the OutSystems platform. It helps us develop applications without the need for deep programming experience. We developed an application that caters to 100+ machines and to be eventually used by 1000+ operators and the sole developer of this application is a new grad with very little practical experience." -Asia IT Director in the Manufacturing industry.
