We performed a comparison between Mendix and Oracle Java Cloud Service based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about OutSystems, Mendix, Salesforce and others in Mobile Development Platforms."It is a brilliant solution."
"The user experience is great."
"It is stable."
"Suite allows you to easily and smoothly integrate with pretty much anything. It is also cloud-enabled. It provides a full Cloud Foundry-driven cloud environment with one-click deployment."
"Mendix code and coding logic are very visual. It looks like a flow chart rather than lines of code. Rapid development is what drew us to Mendix."
"The most valuable features of the product are its ease of use and speed. My friend and I find it helpful as a team of just two developers."
"It's amazing that you can build web apps and mobile (hybrid) apps with one code base in a few clicks. It's a full continuous integration environment."
"We also use Mendix Enterprise Integration for complex business logic. It's a low-code platform, so we run Mendix in the Mendix Cloud."
"The ability to manage security and access the server from any location with complete security using SSH is perfect for performing crucial tasks, even while travelling."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"Cloud has provided less maintenance."
"The automated features of auto-purging in 12c helps clear disk space on a routine basis."
"Self-provisioning, easy to choose from WebLogic 11g to 12c."
"One key feature is getting to choose the Virtual Machine configurations while setting up the server, which is an automated process."
"The auto-backup, incremental backup and restoration features can be invaluable for management."
"The framework supports auto-configuration. A lot of features are already there. It is reliable and user-friendly to develop code, back-end engineering, or locate specific information such as addresses."
"An improvement I would like to see is the ability to version manage independent modules. Their version management for software repositories must be better. It's good and you can do it, but it needs work."
"Mendix needs to think about itself offering machine learning and artificial intelligence."
"I would also like to see automatic adjustment to the Java Heap, whenever an application load becomes too much for the application. It could also use hot database replication."
"In the beginning, it is difficult to learn and work with."
"What is lacking is the support of higher level modeling features, like the modeling you do is relatively low level, yet it is still close to programming. We would like to see a more business-oriented modeling environment, like BPMN."
"There needs to be an increase in the number of the UI components."
"Overall, integration with the enterprise ecosystem needs improvement."
"Needs multiple database connections so an app can directly read/write data to/from multiple databases. This would enable easy splitting of big applications that have complex entity relationships."
"The product is satisfactory but we need more training on managing the machine itself. For example, how do we add more storage, how do we extend a specific portion? I would like to see videos illustrating some of the technical tasks that we often need to do."
"There are issues with the application's development, including small glitches and errors."
"Needs better integration with other Oracle/non-Oracle products."
"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
