I was tasked with configuring APEX for an internet installation. I'm uncertain about its specific purpose, as my involvement was limited to the tool's configuration, and I do not know the development aspects.
View full review »In the public sector, our clients are primarily using Oracle APEX to update their old systems. We have been working on government projects for over a decade, and many of our clients are moving from outdated tools like Oracle Forms and ADA Oracle to Oracle APEX. This shift lets them benefit from APEX's user-friendly, low-code approach, speeding up app development, and keeping them in line with modern web standards, resulting in better efficiency and user experiences.
The primary use case involves numerous applications throughout the organization, primarily developed and employed through Oracle APEX.
View full review »In some cases, it is a difficult tool. However, we have found that Oracle is more of a database and not a good tool for application development. As a result, we are currently facing some challenges, and we have not received enough help from the community. We are working hard to find solutions.
View full review »We are using Oracle Application Express for user support. We provide users with data for analytics, ad hoc purposes, and to help build daily analytical reports. Also, we are using workflows in artificial intelligence and data science. Providing our users with this kind of data helps them with their data science workflow.
Oracle Application Express is also used to deploy data monitoring for data concurrency, data completeness, and data quality.
View full review »It's a low-code platform where you can go for any customization or dashboard. You can use the solution to create any application, and then we can connect with the real-time API.
View full review »Oracle APEX provides a fast web page for any application or dashboard, enabling users to create ad hoc reports.
I use Oracle APEX to build forms and pages for end users to easily manage customer complaints and perform quick fixes. By providing a user-friendly interface with proper validation, we empower end users to address issues themselves, reducing the need for backend database intervention. APEX has been a highly efficient tool for facilitating user transactions and resolving customer complaints swiftly.

Oracle Application Express (APEX) works on data automation. For example. We are building a web application that can auto audit or auto perform examinations for different data and just the user doesn't need to do the examination by itself or do the examination manually. This is exactly how the software works.
View full review »Our business applications include healthcare, administrative, and planning tools. The environment consists of on-premise databases with an Oracle ORDS Tomcat stack and other JavaScript utilities on top of Linux Virtual Machines. There are legacy solutions, such as Oracle 11 with APEX 5.1 and Oracle 19 with APEX 20. These solutions have proven to be quite stable, but you need to do proper planning and profiling of heavy database transactions for more significant queries and heavy transaction processing.

We have several projects with 200 to 300 users.
It is used by developers, building applications for people who want to track things in spreadsheets.
View full review »Oracle Application Express (APEX) can be used for anything which requires quick creation of a user interface with user interaction with a database. Sometimes it's used more for reporting, but in many cases, it's for interactive reporting or interactions with the tool to record dates in the database. For example, it can be used for internal use within the company for the testing team to conveniently add test cases. Additionally, it can be used for comprehensive reporting for the financial teams, they can perform some work related to revenue recognition.
I didn't work with big projects exposed to the public, the use cases were mostly internal platform projects.

We use Apex for the development of publications, specifically in the context of a payroll system. Presently, we are using Apex version 20, but there is an update available to version 31.2. The migration was not a one-to-one transfer, as leveraging Apex effectively requires a shift in programming approach to create an optimal user interface. Adapting to Apex involves relinquishing old programming habits, but the platform offers extensive capabilities that, once mastered, facilitate a user-friendly experience.
View full review »My organization's primary use case for Oracle Application Express (APEX) is application development, as it's an Oracle builder software so that you can develop applications on it for the Oracle database.
The application developed on Oracle Application Express (APEX) is used for patient registrations, clinical documentation, and electronic medical records. It's also used for insurance purposes, billing claims, and coding. The finance team also uses the application that's on Oracle Application Express (APEX) for reporting, and the marketing team uses it for the CRM that's been developed by my organization. The nursing and doctor teams also have modules on Oracle Application Express (APEX), so in terms of use cases, it's used by different departments of my organization.

I have it installed in my computer, and I'm trying to build some GL applications for independent consulting just to track expenses.
APEX is putting a lot of money into the new versions and giving new features to people like coding and building applications. I believe they're on version 21 now. I worked on their product a lot, and I did a mini project to implement Oracle applications. I have done many projects in three continents, like Africa, Europe, and now in North America.

The APEX database is based on a SaaS service. We use a distributor based in Malaysia for that. We integrate this with other Oracle technologies. To use Oracle Apex, you require a licence. We rely on our distributors for the service, and then we advise our end users and support them. Our clients invest in Oracle technology for their application platform. Still, the devil is in the detail with the contract, explaining how the new technology enhances their solution.

The only feature which is useful is that it makes it easier to quickly create publicly accessible applications. We were using it to make these applications.
We used it in addition to Forms and Report Services because Forms and Report Services at that time were client-server applications. It used to be an addition to the Oracle development environment.
Right now I am working on two projects. One of them is using Oracle Forms and APEX.
