I'm using Oracle Application Express (APEX) to build a huge application. I'm in the biggest ministry in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and I migrate all the old forms from Oracle Forms 6 to Oracle Application Express (APEX).
I like that Oracle Application Express (APEX)has proven itself as a product. It's powerful and attractive, and it allowed my organization to modernize forms within two months, and I'm talking about one thousand five hundred forms.
The ministry here is very impressed with Oracle Application Express (APEX) that it decided to switch to the solution and that even .NET, Java, and Vega will use Oracle Application Express (APEX) versus other solutions.
Oracle Application Express (APEX) is a good platform; others cannot compare to it, especially regarding support, performance, and productivity.
What I found most valuable in the solution is its IDE Cloud because you don't need to do installations in the machines, and you don't need huge specifications.
I also found the PWA feature of Oracle Application Express (APEX) very powerful because you can produce substantial mobile applications, and it's as simple as clicking the built-in authentication, single sign-on LDAP (Active Directory). Because of the built-in features of Oracle Application Express (APEX), it's fantastic.
The solution is feature-rich, and it usually takes months to produce web services, especially group services in .NET or Vega. Still, with Oracle Application Express (APEX), it only takes a few hours, which is a significant improvement for the government here.
Oracle has yearly releases for this solution, three releases a year, so I'm delighted, and I'm expecting more features to be added to Oracle Application Express (APEX) in the future. Right now, it has all the capabilities my organization needs. The solution even lets you build your templates, UI/UX-wise, so I'm working on a project where I make my own UI/UX and theme faster through Oracle Application Express (APEX).
I'm satisfied with Oracle Application Express (APEX), but it needs to work on its source control, which is very important. Currently, source control is not as strong in the solution, so it needs some work.
I've been using Oracle Application Express (APEX) since 2003.
Oracle Application Express (APEX) is a very mature, stable solution.
As Oracle powers Oracle Application Express (APEX), it has high availability and scalability. It has everything you don't usually find in other solutions.
I don't need to contact Oracle Application Express (APEX) technical support because it's a very mature solution. I'm also a leader who knows everything about Oracle Application Express (APEX). My team builds huge applications and has a case management system and a project management module on top of Oracle Application Express (APEX). I've produced many applications using the solution, so my team and I can handle technical issues, if any. The user experience and interface for Oracle Application Express (APEX) are also good, so I don't need support from Oracle.
The initial setup for Oracle Application Express (APEX) is fantastic because you can install or deploy it from the top through Amazon RDS or CAD. You can deploy the solution quickly. I currently have a project with the ministry to roll out Oracle Application Express (APEX) for fifty-four pluggable databases.
Setting up the solution is smooth, and there's no downtime during deployment. I found its setup excellent.
Deploying Oracle Application Express (APEX) requires taking care of the packages on the databases, as well as publication. It's straightforward.
I'm working on a massive project, so I have a team responsible for implementing Oracle Application Express (APEX). My team is working on making the process more systematic, where you don't need a human. There'll be an engine that takes care of the whole process.
Oracle Application Express (APEX) is free, so this is another magic of the solution. You just get charged for the database license, which I don't need.
I'm an expert on Oracle Application Express (APEX).
I'm working with the latest Oracle Application Express (APEX) release.
I have many Oracle Application Express (APEX) projects, with one project deployed on-premises, and another on the cloud, using an autonomous database.
Two people work on the Oracle Application Express (APEX) deployment, which is the magic of this solution because it only requires two people to deploy on a massive project, even with hundreds of CRs. The deployment process is smooth.
Compared to Oracle Forms, Oracle Application Express (APEX) requires eighty percent less maintenance.
The ministry has seven thousand concurrent users working with the solution, with one hundred thousand transactions daily and about sixty thousand reports printed daily.
I would recommend Oracle Application Express (APEX) to others looking into using it one hundred percent. I'd tell you not to go with other tools because there's no comparison between Oracle Application Express (APEX) and its competitors. I have twenty years of experience in development, and I've worked on Java, .NET, Oracle forms, Vega, and low-code developments. I hardly have to work when using Oracle Application Express (APEX). My advice is to choose it over others.
I'm giving Oracle Application Express (APEX) a perfect score of ten. I'm giving it a hundred percent rating.
