“
Two major factors really attracted us to OutSystems. First, their customer base is evangelical about their experience with the product. The technology is adding value and enabling a real competitive advantage to their business. Second, they are the market leader in the low code application platform space, which is a market we believe to be taking off right now given the high demand for applications and relative scarcity of highly skilled developers.
