Oracle Autonomous Mobile Cloud Enterprise Review
The hybrid framework eliminates the need for specific skills for specific platforms. I'd like to see the size of the applications improved.
What is most valuable?
How has it helped my organization?
Oracle MAF is based on the Oracle ADF Framework. It helped us to offer mobile solutions easily and quickly without having to learn a complete framework from scratch.
What needs improvement?
- Performance
- Size of the applications
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using it for two years.
What was my experience with deployment of the solution?
We've had no issues with the deployment.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
There have been no issues with the stability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We have not had any scaling issues.
How are customer service and technical support?
It could be improved. Sometimes takes too long to receive proper solutions and answers or bug fixes.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I used other frameworks such AngularJS and Ionic as they are free.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is quite easy and there is a lot of documentation, tutorials and information published by Oracle.
What about the implementation team?
We implemented it with our in-house team.
From my experience, an Oracle MAF implementation requires very good knowledge of Oracle ADF, Cordova, and Java.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The license is not suitable for small to mid-level clients. I consider the license prices too expensive and Oracle MAF does not offer something new that other free frameworks offer.
What other advice do I have?
Oracle MAF is designed for larger companies who are already running Oracle Fusion middleware products. Oracle MAF can be easily integrated with other Oracle Solutions and then it increases the productivity and the speed for delivering Mobile Solutions. However, it should be considered if it makes sense buying licenses of Oracle MAF or using free frameworks are enough.
