"The cost is reasonable."
"The stability of Microsoft Azure App Service is good."
"The most beneficial aspect of Microsoft Azure App Service is its automated DevOps deployment, which includes configurations that ensure secure connections to key vault and database resources."
"It allows you to host your App Service on Azure and provides the ability to bypass online."
"Overall, all of the features are very good."
"Azure data factory is a good tool."
"One of our reasons to use the product is its cloud service. Our usage is mainly on the cloud and we like the benefits that we can get from the cloud. You can easily do the literal shift of your application easily. You can jump into the cloud very quickly."
"This solution is easy to deploy."
"I like that Oracle Application Express (APEX) is powerful and attractive, allowing my organization to modernize forms within two months. I also found its PWA feature very powerful because you can produce substantial mobile applications."
"The valuable features are charts, reports, and search engines."
"By using Express, we are able to load the data and integrate it into our data map."
"Oracle APEX's reporting features are simple yet powerful. The ability to quickly create CRUD screens has simplified many RAD discovery processes, while the APEX environment allows the product owners and dev teams to quickly understand the complex solutions and employ usage statistics to identify areas requiring improvement. The option to add external JavaScript tools in screen development enables the development of complicated mobile or web usage scenarios in rare cases where the APEX UX is not enough."
"Oracle APEX improved our organization by making it possible for us to implement agile project development."
"Personally, I would say that Oracle Application Express (APEX) is a powerful tool...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."

"Efficient software delivery and a solution that works quickly."
"There are no issues with the solution."
"There is still room for improvement in terms of the maturity of the solution. Everything is available that we need, but the issue is that they are still upgrading. Even though they have Azure applications and automation services, they still need to mature more. There are many things that need to mature and the road map for this is quite long, taking another three to eight years to have a mature solution."
"It would be fantastic if Microsoft morphed after my exit service, removing it from subscriptions and moving it to different regions, especially for that service."
"Microsoft Azure App Service could improve by having better integration with on-premise solutions."
"If you're on the cloud, you just get a web interface without much detail for additional configuration or the authority to configure the root or system-level configuration."
"Microsoft Azure App Service needs some improvement in the scaling area."
"I am new to the intervention and I find it difficult to find my way around the user interface. I have my own learning tool. However, it could be simpler for new users."
"Microsoft Azure App Service has a lot of complexity because there are a lot of options and functionality. It is simple to become confused, there are many technical elements to learn before you can utilize the solution. If they could make the solution easier to use it would be a benefit."
"It would be highly beneficial if APEX were an all-in-one platform capable of handling all aspects of application development."
"The product must provide more triggers."
"Oracle is more of a database-oriented solution and is not very flexible in app development."
"Being able to only design with HTML and CSS can be limiting as to what can be accomplished."
"Fixing bugs is difficult because of how the HTML code is generated. It is not always broadly compatible with browsers."
"The problem of sending emails arises when Oracle Application Express (APEX) is inside Oracle Cloud Infrastructure since it is a bit complicated or difficult to understand where to take care of the setup part to be able to just send out emails properly."
"Oracle Application Express would be improved if you could use it on a mobile platform."
"The solution's layout could be improved for report generation to allow more configuration."
