We performed a comparison between GitHub CoPilot 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."Initially, OpenAI is free, but you'll need to pay for it later."
"GitHub CoPilot accelerates productivity. It is an easy-to-use solution that is also helpful in saving the team's time."
"GitHub CoPilot helps us auto-complete code. The tool's context awareness benefits our projects because it identifies the context in which we are working and automatically proposes solutions that we use."
"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 document generation features are valuable."
"The product's most valuable feature is vulnerability management features."
"The product's initial setup is straightforward because it's pushed through the updates."
"GitHub CoPilot has good stability and performance."
"The solution can efficiently translate from English to another language including Arabic using the XLIFF format."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Application Express (APEX) are the ease and speed of development. Instead of engaging a large team of middleware, front-end, and database engineers, we can have professional look at the front end and have the user interface up and running in a matter of days. However, if you want to go far and implement very custom features, it doesn't require a lot of knowledge of front-end development, such as HTML, JavaScript, or other aspects."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"This product will speed up development time with helpful production aids."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is its Graphics Form Design."
"What's most valuable in Oracle Application Express (APEX) is its secure coding functionality, and the solution also has good features."
"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."
"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."
"GitHub CoPilot's alerting features need improvement."
"The suggestions provided by the product must be improved."
"Some of the suggestions provided by GitHub CoPilot are not accurate, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."
"GitHub CoPilot's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"During the upcoming versions, we can modify the current configuration."
"Oracle Application Express would be improved if you could use it on a mobile platform."
"In terms of improvement, there should be a greater focus on AI and machine learning tools in Oracle APEX."
"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."
"The solution has some stability problems that need to be resolved."
"The format is not recognized by Microsoft Word products."
"When exporting, we can't export dynamic reports, only static reports. For example, when we want to export charts or tables it is only exported as a static report so we can't drop down on these reports; however, we can see this information when we are on the dashboard itself."
"Some of the application interfaces of Oracle Application Express are not very attractive and could be improved."
