Sherif Bashar

Head of Digital Solutions at Wind Integrated Solutions

Offers low-code/no-code concept makes development much easier and faster and offers good community support as the development team actively answers questions on the community every day

There are very minor things, like the feature called "action chains," that could use a bit of enhancement. But the team is perfect; they're working on it. An action chain is a sequence of actions triggered by a button or an event. It executes code in order, from top to bottom. For example, it could call a code, call a REST service, and then insert data into a database. It needs enhancement because it can be a bit complex for fresh grads or new developers to understand. It would be better if it was made more readable. That's the main point. But if you have experience, you'll understand it easily. One more thing I want to add about Visual Builder: up until two years ago, it supported native mobile development. That's not available anymore. They replaced native mobile development with progressive web apps, and most customers are complaining about that. We need native mobile development back – the ability to put apps on stores like Google Play or the App Store. That feature is not available right now, and they deprecated it starting in 2024. It's very important. Otherwise, clients go with Flutter or other mobile development tools. It would be good for Oracle to regain that capability. We need the native mobile development feature back.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"VBS is another tool that allows users to create enterprise applications without needing to store their projects in traditional databases like SQL."

"The most valuable feature was the visual drag and drop on the components."

"You don't need a dedicated IDE to develop. You can work from any browser, which is very convenient. And, with the cloud concept, your code is stored in the cloud, so you can modify it from anywhere, at any time."

"The tool is very easy to use."

"The initial setup is easy."

"The action chains are really helpful, and the trigger event, along with those action chains, has been very helpful."

"The product improved our company's business operations since we got value out of it."

"The most valuable feature is integration."

"The entire SAP ecosystem is a valuable feature. It provides access to SAP S/4HANA, ACG systems, and their Fiori launchpad, making it easy to navigate between them. This makes the enterprise very accessible."

"The dashboard provides pretty good clarity."

"It's very easily implemented, especially with the Grow Platform."

"Feature-wise, I like it since it allows you to integrate with multiple applications. There are available connectors that allow you to integrate."

"We primarily utilize SAP's ERP capabilities."

"Though I'm not a massive fan of the SAP Cloud Platform, it has good features, such as its integration with other SAP solutions. When integrating with SAP or even the SAP sister company SuccessFactors and other companies SAP has acquired, you also enjoy data features in the SAP Cloud Platform, such as role-based permissions and other characteristics you can import from SAP."

Cons

"The initial setup of Oracle VBCS can be challenging for those unfamiliar with DBS."

"The feature called "action chains" could use a bit of enhancement."

"There was an attempt to enable front-end development, it did what it intended to do, but the side effects were too bad."

"The tool has minor bugs."

"I would improve the license structure as, for some companies, it may seem a little bit expensive, depending on what they're doing."

"There are some bugs in VBCS."

"When I started looking at the client's IT architecture, I started by doing a study of their services, DVM, data volume, and management services. According to the results, they could be a lot better at this."

"The tool's reliability is a disappointment for us."

"In the next release, I would like to see improvements with the price and the licensing."

"The main problem is that there aren't any easy migrations from SAP PO to SAP CPI, so from process orchestration to cloud platform integration."

"The product needs improvement for serverless native integrations. They should opt for serverless features as all the customers worldwide choose cloud-based products."

"In person, when the development happens, we were told that it's flexible and customizable. However, sometimes, it's challenging to customize."

"Shows errors without providing any analysis."

"Better connectivity to on-premise systems would help us to support older systems that are migrating to the cloud."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's not expensive when you consider what it provides: low-code/no-code development, faster development time, good quality, and good stability."

"Oracle Visual Builder Cloud Service is much too expensive."

"I discovered that the SAP Cloud Platform is affordable, contrary to the impression that it's expensive. The pricing for extra packages or messages is quite reasonable, especially for things like message throughput and processing."

"SAP Cloud Platform Integration is an expensive product. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."

"The cost when it comes to monitoring can be difficult."

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."

"The product's pricing varies and depends on the customers' needs."

"SAP Cloud Platform is generally more expensive than the other options."
