Putting mobile apps development into the cloud for free

OutSystems freemium offer of a cloud delivered mobile app development environment has already scored with 5,700 users

Lowering the inherent skills level of applications development has led to some 5,700 users from 140 countries signing up for an Outsystems Platform personal account in the four months since it was first announced. The Platform aims to lower the barrier of entry to applications development, particularly in the fast-growing area of mobile applications. The goal is to unleash the creative potential for all developers by giving them a powerful, easy-to-use platform that drives technical and business innovation.

It is available as a public cloud, private cloud and on-premises solution, and is available as a `freemium’ service that is based on the same robust enterprise application platform used by over 350 customers.

 “The portability of OutSystems Platform and its capability to demonstrate the speed and efficiency of IT through DevOps automation appear to be the right formula for accelerated growth.”

“With technology and end-user expectations for mobile and web apps changing at such a rapid pace, IT departments are struggling to keep up,” said Paulo Rosado, OutSystems CEO. OutSystems is fundamentally changing the way applications are built and deployed. OutSystems Platform enables any developer to quickly create and deploy enterprise-grade mobile and web applications - driving tangible business innovation.”

Typically, only seasoned programmers have been able to develop and deploy complex mobile and web applications, creating a strain and backlog within IT departments. What is needed, therefore, is a set of production-ready development tools that are flexible and rich enough to exploit the latest DevOps automation environments.

“From a thirty-year COBOL programmer in the U.S. to a medical physicist in Belgium, a trader in the U.K., and a professional developer in Tasmania, people across the globe are using OutSystems Platform to create innovative applications that they never imagined could be this easy,” said David Holmes, vice president of marketing at OutSystems. “The volume and variety of personal applications and enterprise prototypes being created is quite impressive. With nearly 7,000 applications created and deployed, examples range from a prototype intended to replace a long-standing mainframe system to a national medical records database application and an app supporting a racquet-stringing business. The OutSystems Community is buzzing with creativity, and the speed of delivery is staggering.”
