 ## 🏆 Comparisons
 ### Lowcoder vs Retool
 - Lowcoder is open-source. You don't need to worry about vendor lock-in or being stuck with an outdated version of the software.
 - In Lowcoder, developers can create and use their own components instead of depending on official updates.
-- Lowcoder supports left menu navigation (like most sites do). Retool has header navigation only.
+- Lowcoder is free and you can contribute!
+- The EE Version of Lowcoder comes with a much better pricing model, so you have no "per-user costs".
 ### Lowcoder vs Appsmith, Tooljet
 - Lowcoder has more components and richer configuration than Appsmith and Tooljet.
 - In Lowcoder, you can choose auto-height or fixed-height mode for your components, while Appsmith supports fixed-height mode only.
 - In Lowcoder, you can reuse common structures when building apps with modules and query library features.
+### Lowcoder vs Mendix, Outsystems, Pega
+- Lowcoder is modern. The codebase is fresh and uses modern standards.
+- Lowcoder Apps do not need a compile and deployment. Just publish and use.
+- Lowcoder Apps can get embedded natively in websites and apps, even in mobile apps.
+### Lowcoder vs internal Tool platforms
+- Lowcoder supports internal tools like admin panels perfectly, but also customer-facing apps can get developed and published.
+- The Lowcoder UI builder is straightforward and better to use than Bubble.
+- App release cycles and updates can be done nearly daily without service downtimes for customers and users.
