Why OutSystems keeps leading the Gartner Magic Quadrant

Gartner has named OutSystems a Leader in its Magic Quadrant for the 10th year running. This time, OutSystems was also positioned furthest of all vendors for Completeness of Vision.

Choosing a platform for your applications and AI agents is a long-term bet. Your team's skills and integration patterns will be built around it for years. Independent analyst research is one of the few ways to see how a platform holds up beyond a demo.

Ten consecutive years as a Leader 

On 28 September 2026, Gartner published its first Magic Quadrant for AI-Augmented Low-Code Application Platforms. The new category covers platforms that combine AI generation, agentic workflows and governance, and it continues a report in which OutSystems has been a Leader in every edition since 2017.

Gartner assesses Completeness of Vision on criteria including Market Understanding, Innovation and Product Strategy. OutSystems sees its placement as validation of its direction as an agentic systems platform.

Consistency is the real story. A decade ago the big shift was mobile development; today it is AI agents. Very few platforms have stayed in the Leaders quadrant through both, and OutSystems reaches this milestone in its 25th year.

What sits behind the rating 

OutSystems is built for serious IT teams and complex use cases, not just quick departmental apps. It covers the full software lifecycle and scales to the demands of large enterprises.

• Built for agentic AI. OutSystems is an open platform for building, orchestrating and governing agentic systems, with Mentor and Agent Workbench helping teams build applications and AI agents side by side.
• Enterprise scale and governance. Security, lifecycle management and architecture controls are part of the platform, which matters as AI-generated code and agents spread through the business.
• Customer satisfaction. Users echo the analysts. OutSystems scored 99 out of 100 for customer satisfaction in G2's Winter 2026 Grid Report for Low-Code Development Platforms, the top score in the category.
  

A leading platform needs an expert partner 

A Leader-rated platform gives you a strong foundation. Getting full value from it depends on the people who design, build and run your applications. That is where PhoenixDX comes in.

We have worked with OutSystems since 2016, and our partner profile reflects that focus:

• Award-winning partner. OutSystems APAC Customer Success of the Year in 2018 and 2019, and Partner of the Year in 2020, 2021 and 2022.
• Deep bench of expertise. More than 80 specialists, including 6 OutSystems MVPs and a dedicated UX team.
• Proven delivery. 50 projects published on the OutSystems partner directory and a 4.9 rating across 57 client reviews.
• Reusable accelerators. Our own OutSystems solutions, such as DX DocHub, DX IO, DX Compliance and DX FeatureFlags, shorten delivery for common needs like document management, file processing and auditing.

Our work spans government, insurance, food and beverage and more across Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and the Philippines. For Victoria Police, we built ePINS, a mobile app that digitises the traffic infringement process with real-time offence history and automatic penalty calculation. For Treasury Wine Estates, we delivered a vineyard assessment app for field officers in four weeks.
