Adam Elguennioui

SAP Consultant at SA&BC

Offers flexibility and better accessibility to users

The security part of the tool is not so strong, making it an area I would like to see improved in the solution. When working with a cloud tool, it's never 100 percent secure and it is always something to take into account. I would like to be more comfortable working with it and feeling safer. In the future, the tool can be made faster. In the future, I would like to see maybe some AI features in the tool to help automate stuff. You need to be able to create your own models to help create some automated actions.

Sherif Bashar

Head of Digital Solutions at Wind Integrated Solutions

Offers low-code/no-code concept makes development much easier and faster and offers good community support as the development team actively answers questions on the community every day

There are very minor things, like the feature called "action chains," that could use a bit of enhancement. But the team is perfect; they're working on it. An action chain is a sequence of actions triggered by a button or an event. It executes code in order, from top to bottom. For example, it could call a code, call a REST service, and then insert data into a database. It needs enhancement because it can be a bit complex for fresh grads or new developers to understand. It would be better if it was made more readable. That's the main point. But if you have experience, you'll understand it easily. One more thing I want to add about Visual Builder: up until two years ago, it supported native mobile development. That's not available anymore. They replaced native mobile development with progressive web apps, and most customers are complaining about that. We need native mobile development back – the ability to put apps on stores like Google Play or the App Store. That feature is not available right now, and they deprecated it starting in 2024. It's very important. Otherwise, clients go with Flutter or other mobile development tools. It would be good for Oracle to regain that capability. We need the native mobile development feature back.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"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."

"It is pretty easy to use."

"The solution's technical support is good."

"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 automated features of auto-purging in 12c helps clear disk space on a routine basis."

"Backing up and recovery for my domain is very easy and fast. In addition, applying patches and undoing applied patches is effective and easy to do."

More Oracle Java Cloud Service pros

"The action chains are really helpful, and the trigger event, along with those action chains, has been very helpful."

"The most valuable feature was the visual drag and drop on the components."

"The tool is very easy to use."

"You don't need a dedicated IDE to develop. You can work from any browser, which is very convenient. And, with the cloud concept, your code is stored in the cloud, so you can modify it from anywhere, at any time."

"The initial setup is easy."

"VBS is another tool that allows users to create enterprise applications without needing to store their projects in traditional databases like SQL."

Cons

"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"Needs better integration with other Oracle/non-Oracle products."

"There are issues with the application's development, including small glitches and errors."

"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."

"The security part of the tool is not so strong, making it an area I would like to see improved in the solution."

"There are some bugs in VBCS."

"I would improve the license structure as, for some companies, it may seem a little bit expensive, depending on what they're doing."

"The feature called "action chains" could use a bit of enhancement."

"There was an attempt to enable front-end development, it did what it intended to do, but the side effects were too bad."

"The initial setup of Oracle VBCS can be challenging for those unfamiliar with DBS."

"The tool has minor bugs."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is somewhat expensive."

"Oracle Java Cloud Service is an expensive product."

"Oracle is a little more expensive right now, but not much compared to SAP. Oracle's prices are very much dependent on the scale of the project and how many users are there."

"Oracle Visual Builder Cloud Service is much too expensive."

"It's not expensive when you consider what it provides: low-code/no-code development, faster development time, good quality, and good stability."
