We performed a comparison between Microsoft .NET Framework and Oracle SOA Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Infrastructure solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Ease of use, the richness of the libraries and basically very good development tools."
"The most valuable feature is customization."
"The technology is very scalable and accessible to use."
"The solution is easy to use if the user is a developer or some technical person."
"When it comes to the user interface, the context is better than other tools because it is easier to use."
"Microsoft .NET Framework reduces the cost of entry and enables the development of applications with mature and enterprise features, thereby lowering the entry barriers."
"The most valuable thing about Microsoft .NET Framework is that it is an enterprise-grade language and platform."
"When we talk about .NET development, we use Visual Studio IDE to create these things. In recent years, there have been a lot of improvements in Visual Studio 2022. It would be a daunting task to list all of the features that have benefited us, as it would require a lot of time and effort. However, there are definitely many improvements year after year in .NET development."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle SOA Suite is all the platform's capabilities."
"The stability of the solution is the most valuable feature."
"We were able to scale out using multiple application and web servers balanced by hardware load balancers and Weblogic clustering."
"The product provides transparency in finances."
"The new product has come out with SOA Cloud Service and Integration Analytics as well, which gives more options for clients to pick their point of requirements."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
"Valuable features include web service development and cloud connectivity."
"I found the adapters to be most useful."
"It would be nice if the framework were able to work with additional environments and systems like Linux."
"You need to have the technical expertise to use this product."
"The product’s reliability needs improvement."
"In the realm of Microsoft .NET Framework, particularly in the C# language, there have been significant developments that I find highly commendable. I am genuinely fascinated by the continuous evolution of the language, and staying abreast of the latest features in Azure is both challenging and enjoyable. Working with C# in Azure is particularly fantastic. I appreciate in .NET, as compared to Java, is the enforcement of types, providing a better experience in terms of technicalities. Additionally, the introduction of Roslyn in the past few years has brought about the concept of late .NET, which I find interesting and powerful. This allows for the transformation of symbolic code just before execution, eliminating the runtime decision-making process and enhancing efficiency. However, late .NET does come with a drawback – a delay in the last-minute computation when starting an executable. While some may find this less appealing in terms of instant responsiveness, especially in serverless cloud environments, the efficiency gained from executing strictly binary code is valuable. Despite potential drawbacks like the time required for activation, I view .NET favorably for its technical advancements and efficiency, especially in scenarios such as serverless cloud computing. It's essential to recognize the intricacies of how .NET processes code and the efficiency it brings, which some may overlook."
"They could enhance support for Python within Visual Studio, as integrating Microsoft products with other frameworks can present a steep learning curve."
".NET Is still heavy or dependant on other Microsoft libraries and frameworks."
"Microsoft could improve .NET Framework by providing more resources to help users understand the solution."
"Improvements are needed in .NET development, particularly in a backend scenario."
"The web services need to be more robust."
"The solution’s initial setup is complex and could be improved."
"I want to see easier integration connections with other cloud-based tools."
"The technical support is good, we have premier support which costs extra."
"An important area that can be improved is the product's data monitoring. When we use the solution for interfacing or end-to-end data monitoring, we want to know exactly where the data is going and exactly where it is failing, or where there is an issue."
"It's also not developer-friendly."
"The interface is too complicated. Making modifications still requires too much technical knowledge."
"The solutions can improve the communication or translations between formats, such as JSON and XML. The JSON REST API could improve."
