Dear OutSystems Community, we are thrilled to launch the first version of our brand-new Recognition System!
What is new today?
What is coming next? We know your impact goes way beyond the forums and the Forge. In our next release, we will be expanding the system to reward the incredible work you do offline and in the broader ecosystem, including Events, Mentorship, and Thought Leadership.
Go check out your profiles to see the new designs! We would love to hear your feedback on the new look and feel and ranking.
Hi @Sandra Fernandes , The new badges and improved points system looks awesome. Thanks for the update.
Hi @Sandra Fernandes ,
The new interface is beautiful and i think there should be some rewards for the Top 10 Contributors of the Month on Forums. Thanks for your update.
that are points on top of points. If you are in the top 10 that is because of your forums contribution (questions, replies, solutions) for which you already get points. So being notices and shared that you are in the top 10 is actually the reward, and doesn't deserve additional points.
Nice Thank you @Sandra Fernandes ,
There is a typo I guess in below (-2 to -2)
Star Rating feedback (all → owner and team members) -2 to -2
Thank you Aravind, well spotted! It's already corrected!
Dear OutSystems Team,
First of all, congratulations on launching the new recognition system. The new visual design looks great. The badges feel much more modern and vibrant, and overall, the profile now has a much cleaner and more engaging look. It genuinely makes the achievements section more enjoyable to explore.
I also like how the badges now seem more connected to areas of contribution within the community. It gives a stronger sense that the different ways people participate, helping in the forums, sharing ideas, contributing assets, are being properly recognised.
One thing that could make the experience even more motivating would be showing clearer progression for some of the badges. For example, when someone reaches a milestone like a certain number of solutions, it might be nice to see what the next level or target looks like. Small signals like that can really encourage people to keep contributing.
It is also great to see that future releases will recognise contributions beyond the forums and Forge. Many community members contribute through events, mentoring, speaking, or sharing knowledge in other ways, so bringing that into the recognition system will make it feel even more complete.
Overall, this feels like a very positive evolution for the community platform. The new design looks fresh, modern, and much more fun to navigate. Looking forward to seeing how it continues to evolve.
Thanks again for the work the team is putting into the community.
Best regards, Miguel Verdasca
Really like the new badge designs and the updated ranking system. Excited to see how it evolves to recognize events, mentorship, and other community contributions

Dear Outsystems Community Team,
It is fantastic to see the new Recognition system. AS the platform evolves, especially with the transition to ODC and the integration of AI-driven development, the way we measure and celebrate human expertise must evolve alongside it. Please keep the momentum!
Best Regards,

Nice ! The new badges look fantastic.
Thank you for this amazing update, Sandra and the team! 👏 The new badges are a huge visual upgrade and give the profiles a very fresh look. I'm really intrigued by the upcoming phase that will reward Mentorship and offline Events. Will there be specific guidelines soon on how those offline activities can be tracked or verified? Keep up the great work !
Hi Mina, for now we will start by integrating data from OutSystems-led events, like User Groups, Developer Days, and ONE - so if you are an organizer, speaker, or participant, you will be receiving points or badges automatically. Similary for our Mentorship program, if you are a mentor or mentee and you have your profile connected to your ADPList profile, we will automatically recognize your mentorship work.
Great update! The new badges and recognition system look awesome.

Hi @Sandra Fernandes,Thanks for rolling this out, this is a great step forward for the community.
The new look is amazing !
Hi, it really looks great
Is there any overview what you need to do to get a badge?
Best regards, Marlies
Great News
A couple of suggestions that could take this even further:
Clear badge progression paths
Showing “next milestone” (e.g., X more solutions to reach next level) would strongly motivate consistent contributions.
Public badge criteria / roadmap
A simple overview of how each badge is earned would remove ambiguity and help users aim for specific goals.
Monthly/quarterly leaderboards
Recognizing Top Contributors regularly (forums, ideas, mentorship) could boost healthy competition.
AI-powered contribution insights
Suggest areas where users can contribute more (e.g., unanswered questions in their expertise).
Recognition beyond quantity
Highlight high-impact contributions (e.g., most helpful solution, most upvoted answer).
Overall, this is a big step forward—excited to see how mentorship, events, and broader ecosystem contributions get integrated next
Changes always acceptable, Looks amazing!!
Hi @Sandra Fernandes,
The new recognition system looks fantastic — the redesigned badges and updated ranking system make the community feel much more engaging and rewarding.
A few suggestions that could make it even stronger:
• Clear badge progression paths
Showing the next milestone (for example, “5 more solutions to reach the next level”) could motivate more consistent contributions.
• Public badge criteria / roadmap
A transparent overview of how each badge is earned would help users better understand and work toward specific goals.
• Monthly or quarterly leaderboards
Highlighting top contributors across forums, ideas, mentorship, and events could encourage healthy competition and community participation.
• AI-powered contribution insights
It would be interesting to recommend unanswered questions or contribution opportunities based on a user’s expertise.
• Recognition beyond quantity
Rewarding high-impact contributions — such as highly upvoted solutions or especially helpful answers — could further improve contribution quality.
Overall, this is a huge step forward for the community experience. Excited to see how mentorship, events, and broader ecosystem contributions evolve in future updates.
Great work to the team!
Thanks for the update.
