Featured Reviews

Luis Gerardo Meneses Hernandez - PeerSpot reviewer
Creates versatile applications seamlessly across platforms
I like the simplicity of making panels with Flutter. It is easy to use when you understand the code, know how to use Docs, and understand the components of Flutter. It allows you to create fragments that look good and work on both mobile and web environments. Additionally, it works for both PC and iOS devices.
Rodrigo-Mesquita - PeerSpot reviewer
Rapid application development empowers big projects in months
The ability to quickly develop applications without needing to code a lot is very valuable. It is very quick to create a page, and one can use AI to speed up software development. It is easy to learn. In my company, we could develop a very big application in a couple of months.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features of FlutterFlow are the integrations and workflows."
"FlutterFlow offers a lot, but one feature that really helps me is the debugging features that allow me to test everything on the spot. This is really helpful."
"I like the simplicity of making panels with Flutter."
"It allows you to create fragments that look good and work on both mobile and web environments."
"It has many ready modules that can be used and developed."
"Oracle Application Express is easy to use, people don't have to be developers to use it."
"This is a good application for quickly creating public applications."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"One of the most valuable features is that we can develop everything locally and deploy it for different kinds of operators in different locations, so we can do our job in one piece. The benefit of that is that others can use these applications. They connect to the internet to do these kinds of applications based on the permissions for those users."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is its Graphics Form Design."
"The product is fast."
"Oracle APEX improved our organization by making it possible for us to implement agile project development."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in advanced functionality so it could cater to more complex app development needs."
"Scaling depends on project requirements."
"The UI components could be more standardized. Sometimes, for certain properties, I have to search more than I do with other platforms. With other platforms, once you know one, you know all. But with FlutterFlow, sometimes you have to look around for what you need."
"I am trying to see how it can be integrated with the backend. That said, I haven't gotten there yet."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"The product's stability has certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The migration process is difficult in Oracle Application Express."
"It should have the functionality to develop mobile applications. It would also be good if they can improve development in videos and other formats."
"Source control could be stronger in Oracle Application Express (APEX). It needs some work."
"During the upcoming versions, we can modify the current configuration."
"There is one disadvantage. When facing problems, it can be difficult to find solutions online (Google/YouTube), unlike with Java coding, where solutions are readily available on Google."
"Better connection and integration with non-Oracle databases is needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the licensing costs a three out of ten, with ten being expensive and one being cheap. Currently, I use the free version."
"When buying the data license, APEX is included."
"We have a full Oracle E-Business Suite license, and we use that license to develop applications. There's no license required for developing Oracle applications."
"I would rate it around an eight in terms of price, with one being low and ten being high."
"The product is completely free of cost."
"The pricing is very good and less expensive than Mendix or OutSystems."
"The solution is moderately priced, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"Pricing is expensive, overall on an enterprise system but we consider that it gives corresponding value in the product."
"APEX itslelf is a free product, but you will need to license peripheral components."
