We used this Applicational Server on our on-site infrastructure (production environment) and also in our local machines for development and testing purposes.
Although it is definitely a robust and complete framework with lots of options and configurations you can modify at your own needs, it is also a heavy application to run in your computer.
So we'd often deal with slowness in the build and deployment processes, especially with some IDE integrations such as Netbeans or InteliJ.
Even on our local servers, that deployment process was not always super smooth.
To top that up, we dealt with some security breaches raised with some versions of the framework, so we'd need to keep an eye for those security patches at all times (that was the most severe issue we've had).

In my experience, Oracle WebLogic is a powerful platform for building various types of applications. We've been using Oracle WebLogic Application Server in our organization for several years now and can say it's a good middleware choice for an enterprise environment. He made extensive use of the capabilities of Weblogic JMS and found exceptional speed and reliability.

Oracle Weblogic is an amazing application server that is being used by some of the departments in the organization. It easily manages all the critical workloads. Currently, we are using more than 4 WebLogic servers with all having different applications. It is used as a middleware for all our web-based applications.

As we are in the Business Intelligence team, we require solutions related to database, management, and delivery. We have used Oracle's WebLogic suite for our customer's development and its solutions. In our day-to-day business, it's needed to have the optimum solution in place to cater to our business requirements. Nowadays Oracle is in demand and we continue to use it.

The Oracle WebLogic Suite application is being used to simplify the management for our development teams. The really easy lightweight distribution of the IDE (integrated development environment) makes the process of coding happen much faster than using other closely related systems. In general, we use this platform to development much of our backend code.

All the applications throughout the organization run on a single platform and are deployed on the WebLogic Application Server. Since all the applications are deployed on the same platform, it makes life much simpler to maintain the servers.

It is being used as an application server for telecom oss-bss applications. It is also standard application server for custom application. It is the backbone of 100s of telco use cases. Most importantly weblogic users won’t have to struggle with database connection handling, java messaging service, user management and web service throttling.

We use WebLogic Application Server to deploy all our Java based applications. Most of our applications are web based and hence we have most of our code written in Java language and all server side code gets build and deployed on weblogic server across our organization for all internal and external applications.

Weblogic Application Server had become the corporate standard for more than 10 years, it is widely used in our IT department, for dev, test and production environment. It is majorly used to host the full J2EE stack web application and back-end solutions (JSP, JSF, EJB). We use many features of the Weblogic, which includes Clustering, Deployment, Environment management, Monitoring, DataSource, JMS, etc. We even deploy a lot of SOAP-based web service and some Jersey-based REST service endpoints in Weblogic. Those applications support the core business from many domains. Even today, our EJB is gradually replaced by microservices and our monolithic web application is replaced by SPA, we still use Weblogic environment to host some legacy but very important core applications.

My organization is heavily invested in using Oracle WebLogic. Most of our non-cloud native apps are using version 12.1.3. It addresses our needs for an enterprise-focused server system that keeps constant and frequent security updates with very limited configuration needed. I've personally had no issues using it in my local workspace, and it starts up very quickly.

It is used by most of our clients, they are large scale enterprises and it used primary because of the Oracle and Java support that comes with it. The main business issue that it handles is the all in one clustering and messaging. It is usually bundled as a sales package with Oracle DB and Java support.

It is the most trusted Java EE environment across the industry. It has got a lot of tools and automation possibilities. One less known but really useful tool in the stack is the CAT (which stands for Classloading Analytics Tool). I'd recommend the software if you are able to purchase a licence. It really helps the automation with the console and the operations with the admin.

It is used by some projects of the Healthcare department. We had many versions of our server environment, and both the application and database servers were managed from the Oracle WebLogic Application Server. There was personnel, who managed the whole system, with environments and everything connected to it. But I was a test automation engineer, so I didn't have to use it that detailed. However, I still had to go deep in the UI.

It is being used by a department. It is used to host applications that provide services for residents of San Francisco. It facilitates integration between my department and other city departments so that customers' service requests can be created, updated and closed. It is highly available and is proven to offer its users top performance.

Weblogic is used in various ways. Either at the department level for internally developed applications or at the enterprise level for some of the middleware products that need WebLogic to run such as EBS/BPM/ SOA, etc.
It addresses business needs in various departments from finance, to shipping both locally and internationally. We have various operating companies that also use the product in the defined ways above.

We use a variant of WebLogic called Oracle Communications Converged Application Server (OCCAS) to develop real-time, audio/video messaging applications. This allows us to modify the behavior of network equipment easily. Instead of waiting years for network equipment providers to create new applications, we can do it in a matter of days.

We use Oracle WebLogic Application Server for OBIEE. We manage OBIEE application administration using WebLogic Server. It's a web-based application, so all administration is done through WebLogic Application Server. We do a lot of deployments using the WebLogic Server. It helps us to keep our applications up and running.

We are using Oracle WebLogic Application Server for hosting a few Java enterprise applications. Some of the applications are mission critical while some of these applications are lightweight reporting tools. We are using this across multiple projects although in some of the other projects we are also using Red Hat Jboss for the same purpose.

We are using Oracle Weblogic server to host various J2EE based web applications for our company websites. We are also making use of clustering in Oracle Weblogic. The application server is hosted internally while the web request is served through a reverse proxy using Oracle iPlanet server. Most of the heavier application are hosted in Weblogic.
