Great software with minor tweaks required
- Used for development by our employees because of easy-to-understand UI
- Deployment is also done using Oracle Java SE
- Easy-to-understand user interface that is very familiar to our developers, which makes it a fun software to play with
- Java implies that one needs to use many words, as it's quite similar but the code is drastically huge
- It is lagging behind and we had to find a tool to create our own graphical user interface
- When the garbage collector works it makes the apps really slow, which makes it difficult to use
