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.

Pros

"I like the simplicity of making panels with Flutter."
"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."
"It allows you to create fragments that look good and work on both mobile and web environments."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It has a well-designed architecture and is a simple 3rd party application."
"The ability to quickly develop applications without needing to code a lot is very valuable."
"One standout feature of Oracle APEX is its seamless integration with backend procedures, allowing for quick updates without changing the front-end interface."
"This is a good application for quickly creating public applications."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is its Graphics Form Design."
"It provides attractive GUIs allowing professionally-styled applications without the need to know HTML, CSS, or JavaScript."
"The most valuable features are security, stability, and ease of implementation."
 

Cons

"Scaling depends on project requirements."
"There is room for improvement in advanced functionality so it could cater to more complex app development needs."
"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."
"Oracle Application Express would be improved if you could use it on a mobile platform."
"Being able to only design with HTML and CSS can be limiting as to what can be accomplished."
"It would be beneficial to include WebSockets so that you can see real-time updates."
"Better connection and integration with non-Oracle databases is needed."
"There is a bit of a learning curve involved when first using the solution."
"Some of the application interfaces of Oracle Application Express are not very attractive and could be improved."
"The grid reports contain a lot of bugs."
"During the upcoming versions, we can modify the current configuration."
 

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."
"It is expensive, but I don't know what the licensing cost is."
"The tool is not expensive."
"It's a free solution with no additional costs."
"I believe that the solution's pricing is high."
"Oracle Application Express (APEX) comes with Oracle. The Oracle price itself. I do not know the exact cost. Oracle is flexible on its price. If you overspend on your hardware, then I don't think you will overpay. I heard that Oracle is more expensive than other databases, but when you consider Oracle is the best traditional relational database out there. You get what you pay for."
"Oracle Application Express (APEX) is free, so this is another magic of the solution. You just get charged for the database license, which I don't need."
"The solution is free with your Oracle license or database and that is a good value."
"I would rate it around an eight in terms of price, with one being low and ten being high."
