We performed a comparison between Bizagi and Oracle Application Express (APEX) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Rapid Application Development Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Business process modelling and simulation."
"It automates a completely manual, complicated process."
"I very much like the reusable rules and forms, and the way Bizagi controls the process flow. I also like the document generating system to generate PDFs and then .doc files with information gathered from a flow. At the end of a process, you can generate a document that can be printed."
"The documentation capabilities are very good. Very structured documents and process versions are valuable features, and being able to communicate that to our customers is also a very good feature. It has a good balance between the effort and the result. So, you don't need to be too detailed. You can document while you are modeling, which is a very good feature."
"Agility, reverse engineering, customized portal web, help desk and user guides, easy deployment, simple to modify."
"The approval process is simple."
"Very, very stable."
"The product allowed users to connect with flow chart elements with ease."
"In our experience with Apex, we find that minimizing reliance on HTML and JavaScript is preferable, especially considering our background as seasoned programmers adept in PL/SQL. Incorporating HTML and JavaScript can pose challenges due to potential compatibility issues when updates are made to JavaScript. We also make use of JAPER report integration for generating reports, a practice integral to our reporting procedures."
"With only a browser, it is very easy to develop in a web environment."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is its Graphics Form Design."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The product is fast."
"Oracle APEX allows our company to complete webpage projects easily in a fast turnaround time."
"It has a well-designed architecture and is a simple 3rd party application."
"It provides attractive GUIs allowing professionally-styled applications without the need to know HTML, CSS, or JavaScript."
"I would like to see simulation as a free feature again. In version 3.3 it was free, but in 4.0 it isn't."
"Bizagi needs a way to define categories such as process groups like the APQC framework, PCF, and handle the processes within it."
"Agriculture, Industry."
"One part of the university has changed its regular desktops to Linux. This is a weak point because Bizagi doesn't run on Linux. I would like the opportunity to run the software inside of Linux."
"From a developer's point of view, an improvement in the layout would make the UI better."
"Can be difficult for new users."
"The solution needs to make it easier to use RPA products on it. They may need an RPA specific interface. It would be better than having to make an RPA tool to use for viewing. Most of our work is about making RPA tools with the Bizagi, not using Bizagi itself."
"One thing that I don't like very much is related to integration: we have to develop some connectors... I would need a connector that connects to a REST service and that uses client ID in secret... They provide the means to develop a connector and use it, but they should implement this because REST services are among the most used protocols for web services."
"The workflow engine should be embedded in the solution."
"Some of the application interfaces of Oracle Application Express are not very attractive and could be improved."
"Regarding features, the solution lacks the ability to integrate with different databases. Also, I feel that Oracle Application Express (APEX) is exclusively designed for other Oracle tools."
"Better connection and integration with non-Oracle databases is needed."
"The solution does not support the Linux platform."
"Oracle Application Express would be improved if you could use it on a mobile platform."
"There is a bit of a learning curve involved when first using the solution."
"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."
