Erick Kathurima - PeerSpot reviewer
Improves efficiency and offers reliability along with good flexibility
I have used Oracle in different places, especially in the IT industry, for several years since 2009. I have been in the IT industry for a long period of time. I have had a chance to interact with many systems, and I have been in touch with several programming languages, including the ones in Oracle. As a developer, I use Oracle Content Management as an enterprise tool to enable development. The solution's integration capabilities are doing very well because I work with many of them, and its APIs are flexible, good, and secure. I rate the tool an eight out of ten.
