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.

"The most valuable applications within the organization are primarily data forms and extended reports."
"Oracle is always adding very important updates"
"What I like best about Oracle Application Express (APEX) is that it doesn't require hard coding for reporting and building applications. It's a GUI-based application builder that even end-users with little development and language knowledge can develop applications on Oracle Application Express (APEX). The software is also very user-friendly, which I find valuable."
 

Cons

"It could be more flexible, but it's already a good solution for the designer."
"The solution should be able to support Docker. This would help make scalability easier."
"They should add more information about functionality."
"Integrations and customizations should be improved in AgilePoint and other low-code solutions."
"While the platform is good and it has a lot of options, I would like to see more alternative features in future versions such as connectors to IDM. Currently, they have only ADFS and Okta."

"There is not a lot of Wiki help or in Google, but there is some."
"It has been reported that the technology is very hard to learn, and the service is expensive."
"It should have the functionality to develop mobile applications. It would also be good if they can improve development in videos and other formats."
"Fixing bugs is difficult because of how the HTML code is generated. It is not always broadly compatible with browsers."
"It would be highly beneficial if APEX were an all-in-one platform capable of handling all aspects of application development."
"The collaboration and the workflow engine could use some improvement."
"During the upcoming versions, we can modify the current configuration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe the pricing has changed recently. We had purchased one license per server, and it was about $2,000. It was a one-time payment. It's possible that they have recently implemented a new cost structure and now have yearly subscriptions."
"It is more cost-effective than local tools."
"Price-wise, AgilePoint is a cheap tool and a standard application for running analytics in an IT environment."
"I think the price is reasonable."
"The product is completely free of cost."
"The tool is free with the Oracle Database license."
"The pricing is mid-range so is neither expensive nor cheap."
"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."
"Oracle Express comes with the Oracle license, it is a bundle."
"Oracle Application Express (APEX) comes with Oracle. The Oracle price itself. I do not know the exact cost. Oracle is flexible on its price. If you overspend on your hardware, then I don't think you will overpay. I heard that Oracle is more expensive than other databases, but when you consider Oracle is the best traditional relational database out there. You get what you pay for."
"If you have a license to Oracle database, you can access APEX."
