Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
I wasn't involved in selecting the server we were using but in our team we've made some efforts to improve the local deployment process by trying some other Applicational servers too. Apache Tomcat was a more lightweight solution for sure, and it coped well with our applications …
Oracle Weblogic Application Server is very robust and has good features and stability. It is a very sought-after tool for deploying many kinds of applications.

Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
I believe the Oracle WebLogic Suite is probably a better all encompassing suite of development tools for the IT department. [It] is probably a bit more expensive than other competitors like Apache Tomcat or NGINX, but is worth the investment if you consider the savings from …

Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
Oracle WebLogic Application Server is much more stable when compared to opensource application servers like Oracle GlassFish Server or Apache Tomcat. Coming to JBoss Enterprise Application Server, Oracle WebLogic Application Server has better support with most of the cloud …
Oracle WebLogic Application Server is a leading server side container. It is far superior than IBM's WebSphere application server, JBOSS or Tomcat server. The easiness of using Oracle's weblogic application server is much user friendly and also it has great support and user …
Oracle Weblogic Application Server gains its reputation from the performance, easy of maintenance, to be compared with the competitor solutions. However, Weblogic is "all-in-on" solution, sometimes it is too fat for some business needs that only requires part of the full …
Apache Tomcat requires a lot of out-of-the-box set-up that is difficult to work with, especially when it comes to production-ready configurations. The only advantage it has over Oracle WLS is that it's free, which is probably why many commercial server products are bundled with …
The main competitor is Wildfly and Websphere. The choice it's all about the bundled cost regarding the chosen OS and Java vendor. All three are almost the same in terms of performance and features. An exceptional alternative from the OSS ecosystem is Payara. Payra has some …
My manager considered switching a few years ago to other application servers like JBoss or IBM WebSphere. The big reason behind the idea was cost. We all knew that WebLogic Server was suited to do the jobs very well. Oracle sales representatives worked well with my manager to …
Apache Tomcat is used by the group of developers in our organization but the major student ERP production systems do run on WebLogic due to its feature-rich nature and stability. Although the cost is considered a hindrance to its wider use.
We are using OBIEE application and when we install an application it is installed automatically with the application. We selected the WebLogic Server for better administration and maintenance of the application. It is very important for us to keep our production application up …
WebSphere is another major contender and they have pitching and are more updated/streamlined. I still prefer WebLogic from an administrator standpoint. Support is much better and there are more options for finding answers to issues or new features.
Red Hat JBoss EAP is good and open source. We chose Oracle WebLogic because we are using Oracle products like Oracle Enterprise Manager and it's very easy to integrate WebLogic with it. Also, for our mission critical applications, we wanted an application server with great …
Compared to the alternatives, Weblogic is on the heavier side and requires more configuration to get it running. Instance startup time is also relatively long, but this could be due to the application size deployed on the server. Licensing cost for WebLogic would also be higher …
Oracle WebLogic Application Server and IBM WebSphere Application Server provide an enterprise-level well-supported platform for robust architecture solutions. They provide tools for management, monitoring, and interaction with multiple other platforms in the market. JBoss is …
If you need to have complex options in place you can count on Weblogic to be a robust Applicational Server you can rely on. But you would need to keep an eye on maintaining the framework updated quite frequently to avoid security breaches and subsequent severe situations. If you don't have other infrastructure for test purposes, I wouldn't advise you on having devs and QA installing this heavy application in their local machines, there are other lightweight solutions that would be a better fit for that.
The brand relation between Java and WebLogic Application Server usually provides a quicker access to programming features and their availability for the applications deployed.
The access to centralized configuration both from console and command line WLST eases the implementation of changes major or not in an organized and expedite way.
The maturity of the product is also visible in the available tools provided by the product itself, for both monitoring of resources and alerting for availability and thresholds
The Admin UI should be further simplified, the UI design was not too user-friendly— too many options and clicks required, difficult for the new beginners to figure out what they are looking for.
The admin server becomes the single failure point, although Oracle suggested some workarounds by setting VIP and VHost, it was not quite easy and straight forward.
Domain replication is hard, requiring a lot of knowledge and scripts efforts.
Admin will hang if the node manager communication encounters some issues for one or some nodes in the domain/cluster.
Not able to kill/terminate the stuck thread, the only way is to restart the managed server (JVM)
I would have given it a 10 but sometimes the hogging threads become a issue and needs server bounce. Except that, we are very pleased with the product.
I believe the Oracle WebLogic Suite is probably a better all encompassing suite of development tools for the IT department. [It] is probably a bit more expensive than other competitors like Apache Tomcat or NGINX, but is worth the investment if you consider the savings from time to get code into production.
WebLogic Application Server definitely had a positive ROI since all the applications are deployed on a single platform and making maintenance extremely cost effective.
Since all major cloud vendors support and maintain WebLogic, it gives us an opportunity to explore possibilities to move the organizational infrastructure on to the cloud without too much effort.
