OutSystems Named a Leader in Latest Low-Code Platforms Industry Report

SINGAPORE,March 26,2019 --OutSystems,the number one low-code platform for application development,was named a Leader inThe Forrester Wave™: Low-Code Development Platforms For AD&D Pros,Q1 2019 and ranked highest in the current offering category. This marks the ninth recognition as a Leader for OutSystems from independent industry analyst firms and the fourth in less than a year.

The latest research from Forrester highlights the growing future for low-code development,stating that "digital businesses' demand for even more software ever more quickly is the big driver of adoption." The report also cited that in a recent developer survey 23 percent are already using low-code platforms and another 22 percent planned to do so within a year.

This Forrester report,which evaluated the 13 most significant low-code software providers on 28 criteria,concluded: "Two characteristics stand out for OutSystems as a low-code vendor: its relentless addition of features for AD&D pros and its consistent delivery on road-map and strategy objectives. The vendor has delivered on its past goals,including native mobile apps,scale,and reliability to tackle core transactional business apps,and global presence. OutSystems keeps pushing the boundaries of low-code platforms-- into apps that process device readings and other streaming data,into AI,and into core business record-keeping systems."

"In this report,we believe that Forrester highlights two major themes we continue to hear from our customers," said Paulo Rosado,OutSystems CEO. "First,customers want a feature-rich,low-code platform that can support a tremendously wide range of enterprise use cases. Second,they want a business partner that will accelerate their time-to-value. At OutSystems,we've architected our entire customer experience to help companies successfully adopt low-code application development and deliver real value to their businesses incredibly fast."

One recent testament of OutSystems ability to provide solutions that address enterprises'needs is Australian wealth management firmIOOF,which was able to develop a portal for trust payment processing and approval. The system has not only reduced the risk of re-keying error,but has also significantly cut down the original 10-step process by five steps. Aside from the trust payment portal,IOOF has likewise developed a production system for native title expense tracking - replacing 5,000 spreadsheets with a single database.

"Never has it been more pressing for organisations across Asia Pacific to deliver value for customers at the speed of demand. We believe our recent recognition from Forrester is a testament of our commitment to be the partner of choice as we work on bolstering enterprises'agility,speed,responsiveness,and scalability to drive accelerated application delivery and time-to-value through our low-code development platform," said Mark Weaser,Regional Vice-President,APAC,OutSystems.
