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."GitHub CoPilot accelerates productivity. It is an easy-to-use solution that is also helpful in saving the team's time."
"GitHub CoPilot has good stability and performance."
"The document generation features are valuable."
"When I write code, I feel like I have someone sitting with me to help me. Wherever I'm stuck, I just ask a question, and it provides guidance that I can use."
"The initial setup of the product is easy."
"The most valuable aspects in terms of features, revolve around its code generation capabilities."
"The product's most valuable feature is vulnerability management features."
"The product is easy to integrate."
"I like the way that it automatically goes into the spreadsheets and the users can deal with it."
"I particularly enjoy the web builder capabilities, especially the Page Designer. It offers so many elements or components to choose from, which is a major plus for me."
"You can customize the solution to create a console where only business users can access and download files if they want to extract the data."
"It helps us create web pages quickly."
"You don't have to know a lot of PL because it's built on PL/SQL. You don't need developers. You only need to design a good application that resolves a problem, or many problems, for companies and you're ready to go."
"One of the most valuable features is the ability to build very fast data-driven UIs."
"By using Express, we are able to load the data and integrate it into our data map."
"A user interface is relatively simple to create."
"In a few cases, the results aren't correct, so that needs improvement. Also, it would be great if the results could be presented in different formats, not just text. As engineers, it takes time to read through text-based results."
"GitHub CoPilot's alerting features need improvement."
"The solution is expensive. It should also support other programming languages."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"In certain instances, OpenAI didn't respond in the expected way. The responses were more general and didn't address the specific point."
"The tool needs to focus on integration, as it is the most important aspect. I would like to see some pre-designed modules included in my projects."
"There's room for improvement to ensure that suggestions align more precisely with the context of what I'm seeking, minimizing instances of unrelated or inaccurate code suggestions."
"Some of the suggestions provided by GitHub CoPilot are not accurate, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Connections to the application pages are not handled well and at times more than one user can be accessing an application with the same ID."
"Another issue I used to encounter was with the debugging functions. I believe this is an area where Oracle APEX could improve significantly in terms of displaying error messages or error pages. It is very difficult to detect bugs or which bugs you are having when it comes to errors or which errors you have."
"Being able to only design with HTML and CSS can be limiting as to what can be accomplished."
"The solution’s pricing is high if you use it on the OCA platform. It’s also a little bit costly. However, if we use it on an on-premises Oracle database, the pricing is cheaper."
"I don't like the URL syntax."
"Connecting with Oracle and the relation with Oracle at the database as a procedure needs improvement."
"Oracle should implement vertical and horizontal data segmentation in APEX's security framework, so Dev teams don't need to do any heavy lifting in the APEX screens. This is a common issue in enterprise apps. It would be nice to seamlessly integrate Git repositories into the development process since the current solution can result in overlapping work or an eventual overwrite. The provided example apps are great, but they could benefit from some added documentation in the "explanation screens"."
"Fixing bugs is difficult because of how the HTML code is generated. It is not always broadly compatible with browsers."
