Featured Reviews

Luis Gerardo Meneses Hernandez - PeerSpot reviewer
Creates versatile applications seamlessly across platforms
I like the simplicity of making panels with Flutter. It is easy to use when you understand the code, know how to use Docs, and understand the components of Flutter. It allows you to create fragments that look good and work on both mobile and web environments. Additionally, it works for both PC and iOS devices.
Rodrigo-Mesquita - PeerSpot reviewer
Rapid application development empowers big projects in months
The ability to quickly develop applications without needing to code a lot is very valuable. It is very quick to create a page, and one can use AI to speed up software development. It is easy to learn. In my company, we could develop a very big application in a couple of months.

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"FlutterFlow offers a lot, but one feature that really helps me is the debugging features that allow me to test everything on the spot. This is really helpful."
"The most valuable features of FlutterFlow are the integrations and workflows."
"I like the simplicity of making panels with Flutter."
"It allows you to create fragments that look good and work on both mobile and web environments."
"A user interface is relatively simple to create."
"This is a good application for quickly creating public applications."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is its Graphics Form Design."
"By using Express, we are able to load the data and integrate it into our data map."
"The autonomous database is valuable and provides the main structure for code development."
"This product will speed up development time with helpful production aids."
"It's stable and reliable for the most part."
"Oracle is always adding very important updates"
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in advanced functionality so it could cater to more complex app development needs."
"Scaling depends on project requirements."
"The UI components could be more standardized. Sometimes, for certain properties, I have to search more than I do with other platforms. With other platforms, once you know one, you know all. But with FlutterFlow, sometimes you have to look around for what you need."
"I am trying to see how it can be integrated with the backend. That said, I haven't gotten there yet."
"When exporting, we can't export dynamic reports, only static reports. For example, when we want to export charts or tables it is only exported as a static report so we can't drop down on these reports; however, we can see this information when we are on the dashboard itself."
"Reporting needs to be accessed via third party tools."
"The solution does not include a default or custom template like other products."
"The collaboration and the workflow engine could use some improvement."
"It should have the functionality to develop mobile applications. It would also be good if they can improve development in videos and other formats."
"One area for improvement in Oracle APEX is its workflow orchestration capabilities."
"The user interface needs to be improved. It should be more user-friendly."
"The solution does not support the Linux platform."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the licensing costs a three out of ten, with ten being expensive and one being cheap. Currently, I use the free version."
"Apex is not priced separately; instead, it is associated with the Oracle database. A free option for Oracle database and Apex can be downloaded and installed on this complimentary database version. This aligns with our current approach."
"We have a full Oracle E-Business Suite license, and we use that license to develop applications. There's no license required for developing Oracle applications."
"The solution is cheap. It's a free solution. I rate the solution's pricing a six or seven out of ten."
"It is expensive, but I don't know what the licensing cost is."
"The tool is free with the Oracle Database license."
"We have an Oracle basic product license, and then we can use Oracle APEX for free. We have many licenses for Oracle for approximately 20 processors."
"It's a free solution with no additional costs."
"When buying the data license, APEX is included."
