Here's why people don't like Mendix

The software is not very user-friendly and some training would be necessary for effective use. A user within the software development industry.[1]
It is quite difficult to work with Studio Pro. Opening the IDE itself is quite slow and requires you to log in again and again during development. If you prolong debugging or leave a feature branch open for a long time, CPU and RAM consumption kills the computer. The IDE freezes at runtime and you have to force start and open it with all open pages. A software developer within the banking industry with 50+ employees[2]
The licence system makes the product unaccessible for smaller budgets. Some versions can contain annoying bugs. An IT professional within the retail industry.[3]
When it's so easy to build stuff, it's easy to lose track of things like performance and proper architecture. If you're building something where you expect to need excessive amounts of custom code, it might be better to choose a different solution.[4]
The criticism one often hears is that with the product, one would not have direct control over the code and that the reduction to a few actions is a limitation. A developer within the IT industry[5]
The learning curve is steep and you need to understand many Mendix-specific concepts before you can be productive. The platform can be limiting when you need custom functionality that goes beyond what's available out-of-the-box.[6]
Vendor lock-in is a real concern with Mendix. Once you build your application on their platform, it's very difficult and expensive to migrate to something else. The licensing costs can escalate quickly as your user base grows.[7]
