Case Study: Nimbi achieves 9x productivity and $20M in cost savings with OutSystems

Nimbi Truly Masters DevOps With OutSystems

Nimbi, a supply‑chain management software provider, was struggling with unstable, overly complex Java legacy systems that caused crashes, blocked regression testing and drove away key developers while customers demanded fixes. To modernize quickly and gain governance, the company rebuilt its core on the OutSystems low‑code platform to simplify maintenance, speed development and reduce costs.

Using OutSystems, Nimbi rebuilt its platform in six months, launching a toolkit (Certify, Buy, Negotiate, Analytics) that now connects 100,000 companies across 100 corporate clients and handles over $11 billion in annual transactions. The switch delivered about 5x faster development and ~9x productivity versus Java, cut the team from 40 to 24 developers, produced 10+ major applications, improved stability and DevOps practices, and yielded roughly $20 million in cost savings.
