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.

"Intuitive with a user-friendly UI."
"I like the way that it automatically goes into the spreadsheets and the users can deal with it."
"Oracle APEX is very easy to use and comes with a lot of ready-made components that speed up the process of creating reports and dashboards."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"It's stable and reliable for the most part."
 

Cons

"The solution should be able to support Docker. This would help make scalability easier."
"Integrations and customizations should be improved in AgilePoint and other low-code solutions."
"Some issues with AgilePoint's design, AI and UX are some of the major problems we deal with when handling our company's business models or processes."
"It could be more flexible, but it's already a good solution for the designer."
"Integrations and customizations should be improved in AgilePoint and other low-code solutions."
"They should add more information about functionality."
"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."
"The solution’s pricing is high if you use it on the OCA platform. It’s also a little bit costly. However, if we use it on an on-premises Oracle database, the pricing is cheaper."
"Better connection and integration with non-Oracle databases is needed."
"Oracle is more of a database-oriented solution and is not very flexible in app development."
"The product's stability has certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"Maybe there are other technologies that offer what APEX cannot."
"The format is not recognized by Microsoft Word products."
"I would like to see easier integration into active directory authentication. Also, maybe integration of JavaScript frameworks would resolve some issues."
"Connections to the application pages are not handled well and at times more than one user can be accessing an application with the same ID."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think the price is reasonable."
"It is more cost-effective than local tools."
"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."
"Price-wise, AgilePoint is a cheap tool and a standard application for running analytics in an IT environment."
"I believe that the solution's pricing is high."
"The pricing is very good and less expensive than Mendix or OutSystems."
"It is expensive, but I don't know what the licensing cost is."
"The tool is free with the Oracle Database license."
"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."
"To my understanding, my organization is using the free version of Oracle Application Express (APEX), but I'm unsure because I haven't checked the pricing or licensing cost for it."
"When you have a licensed database in an Oracle environment, APEX is free."
"The solution is free."
