Quick development and deployment for simple apps!
- The UI is very easy to use, and you can choose from a number of templates for each "screen" you design.
- You can design basic CRUD screens without knowing the "details" (technology) under the hood.
- It's easy to test. Just one click, and the page you are working on is executed.
- Deployment on an OnPremise DB is not so simple. You need to follow many steps (that's why I used the Cloud version!).
Also, to generate all basic CRUD on complex applications, rather than programming them using other languages (Java. c#, etc) and having more complex deployment processes.

- I am currently using it myself, since some of the tasks and activities I perform daily were hard to follow up using my company tools. I did not perform an ROI analysis since I developed it in my free time just to simplify my daily work, but I'm really happy with the results I obtained in a few days of development.
- Follow up tasks with multiple dependencies
- I plan to add other devops staff as users
- Replace traditional CRUD pages developed using C# with CRUD pages hosted on APEX for our Oracle based modules.

- Implemented in-house
- To use it locally (on my own PC) it requires a DB instance (I already have an Oracle XE database for prototyping / testing) but the deployment process was not easy, having to decide between different ways to install that require different actions. I preferred to use the CLOUD version of the product that does not require any install / deploy.
Most of the pages I designed required no technical knowledge on the database nor SQL or PL/SQL languages.

- None
Quick notes on why I like Oracle Apex
- Enables fast application development and can be used by all levels of developer from novice to advanced
- Produces good looking, intuitive responsive web applications that are easy for the end user to understand and use
- It's in the database so can leverage all the power and functionality already there in Oracle.
- Improvements are being made all the time. Some more documentation of javascript APIs is in the next release - this will be useful
- Increased range of charts and diagrams would be good but it is already possible to do these using Oracle Jet with a bit of effort using javascript.
- Its made working processes more efficient - and it is a free product so investment is purely in terms of staff resource costs. As its so easy to use and so fast, return on this is fast
- Been able to terminate contracts with 3rd party suppliers - hundreds to thousands of £ per month - by replacing with Apex applications
- Data reporting
- Checking and validation of data including audit trail to show that data has been checked and results of checks stored in the database
- A complaints system
- I use an apex application to automatically build other apex applications
- I use apex to help with training end users how to use apex
- Monitoring user activity
- Provides a departmental Wiki
- More reporting with end user input and customisation
- Replace endless spreadsheet "applications" which are endemic in the business with better, more controlled applications that allow proper multi user access.
- Automate admin tasks (for DBAs and database support team)
