Likelihood to Recommend	Oracle Its well fit for the environment where applications are written in programming languages supported by GraalVM. It's [a] very powerful and reliable, high-performer Java Virtual Machine that provides the Java Development kit i.e JDK that has the ability to compile the Java apps ahead of time. Maintenance of this tool is simple and it [increases] the efficiency of the product since it requires few resources. Incentivized Ava Jakobs System Administrator Read full review	SAP SapMachine is best to use when you want to develop an enterprise-level app using JAVA language, the reason why to use SAPMachine is long-term support from SAP, so the JDK is going to be maintained by SAP, a wide range of installers available to install almost all the system like Windows, Mac, Linux are supported Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Oracle Best performance of applications High efficiency of applications Reduced hardware requirements Lesser consumption of resources Universal support to multiple programming languages Reduced size of applications Creation of virtual images for testing on Android and iOS mobile operating systems Creation of native images Excellent support Documentations are detailed enough to learn and use easily Easy to use Incentivized Abdul Wahab Khan Project Manager Read full review	SAP Long term enterprise support Open Source Platform Supports Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Oracle It should be possible to use GraalVM EE to distribute native images of JavaFX applications for mobile platforms, especially for Apple platforms. Native Images are a game changer. However, compiling complex applications can be a pain. Better support for an improved transition process are a must.

Support Rating	Oracle Like all Oracle tools, you can find a lot of documentation and also write down your questions in a forum. Sadly I don't see too many users so far but I hope it'll keep increasing and in a short period we will have more information and ofc issues fixed. So far, everything I needed I could find easily.

Alternatives Considered	Oracle GraalVM is at the top when it comes to executing Java applications in terms of speed. With its amazing fast ahead of its time compiler it helps in reducing the startup time of the applications. Also, the overall performance of the product is increased and reduces the latency as well. It supports multiple languages such as Groovy, Ruby, Javascript, R, Python, Scala, Java, Clojure, and many more. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	SAP No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Oracle Financial: Increased Java container count on the same hardware. Performance: Decreased cold start time for container startup. Training: Adopting GraalVM has a learning curve. This requires investment in time and resources. The benefits come through re-evaluating our current deployments for optimization.
