Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Oracle, OutSystems and others in Rapid Application Development Software."Caspio was user-friendly compared to other solutions. As someone who doesn't know a lot about coding, I found it easy to create a web application on this platform."
"I like the way that it automatically goes into the spreadsheets and the users can deal with it."
"The solution can efficiently translate from English to another language including Arabic using the XLIFF format."
"It's stable and reliable for the most part."
"The product is fast."
"It's fairly easy to make a user-friendly interface."
"Personally, I would say that Oracle Application Express (APEX) is a powerful tool...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"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."
"The product is easy to use."
"The visualization of the data pages could be improved. You have to a lot of tweaking to make the visualization stand out. It's basic, but there are a lot of options. So you really have to do a lot of customizing on that part. They could add some templates that are more attractive than the basic ones. It would be helpful if you could start with something that's already built rather than working on standard templates from scratch."
"The solution does not support the Linux platform."
"You also need an APEX specialist for deployment because not many people use it."
"I don't like the URL syntax."
"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."
"The workflow engine should be embedded in the solution."
"The collaboration and the workflow engine could use some improvement."
"One area for improvement in Oracle APEX is its workflow orchestration capabilities."
"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"."
