Featured Reviews

Zain Omer - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable and scalable product that offers ease of coding and designing to build applications
There isn't a need for any improvement in Android SDK since they provide users with two or three updates in a year, making it quite stable. The security part in Android SDK depends on how you build an application using the tool so you can apply some security to your application. The reason why Temenos Quantum is the best security tool is because it uses a middleware named Fabric, so the APIs are connected from Fabric to Temenos Quantum. The middleware offered by Temenos is really strong. If I compare the security offered by Android to that of Temenos Quantum, Android will lose in terms of security. You can create a secure application with Android SDK. The amount of security offered by Android SDK is less when compared to Temenos, making it an area of concern where improvement can be made. I don't think Android SDK needs to add any features because they give updates frequently.

A stable and easy-to-use product that provides seamless integration
The best thing about the product is that it provides seamless integration. I can use my Microsoft product on my iPhone, so it's good for work and personal use. I can use it across devices since it's synced up. AirDrop and iCloud are the most valuable features of the solution. The solution is easy to use.

Enabling push notifications would certainly increase its popularity. Since Oracle MAF consumes REST WebServices, it was pretty fast to build, deploy and consume.
As Oracle MAF is a heavy product, it doesn’t allow much space to convince customers to go with the product suite. Also, the plug-ins and out of the box features need to be added into the library to offer an easy to use PPR. Also, enabling push notifications would certainly increase its popularity.
