Shall we ride a unicorn?
u·ni·corn
noun
- [Mythology] A fantastical animal resembling a horse, with a long horn on its forehead.
- [Economics] A company in the technology industry valued at over one billion dollars.
Both definitions are relatable to OutSystems.
Economically, OutSystems earned the title of unicorn company in 2018. Since then, it hasn’t stopped and could even be said to have a herd of unicorns. It did this by breaking the myth that it’s not possible to deliver applications quickly and with quality.
The digital world is becoming increasingly demanding, and this was OutSystems' response. More and more companies are choosing it as their application development platform. OutSystems is a low-code, visual, and modular platform. These aspects result in applications being developed up to 10 times faster and easier to maintain compared to thousands of lines of traditional code.
Don't be mistaken into thinking there’s a long list of limitations; I've seen it all: banking applications, governmental, invoicing, telecommunications, and even games!
And learning to develop in OutSystems is not a daunting task! Anyone with basic knowledge of programming logic can surely develop their first application in OutSystems in just a few hours.
With numerous tutorials and learning videos, guided courses, and a very active community, learning OutSystems is truly a task that only depends on willpower.
As the demand from companies for OutSystems professionals has been increasing greatly, many educational institutions have already included its learning in their curricula. Many companies also provide their employees with courses and certification opportunities in OutSystems.
team.it is one such example.
