Saves time with context-aware code suggestions and seamless integration
In terms of improvements for Copilot, I haven't considered much since it offers many useful interactions. It integrates well with GitHub repositories, tracks changes on PRs, and provides valuable suggestions where applicable. There is excellent support across various code editors like JetBrains, VS Code, and NeoGen. I also run many automations within GitHub. When an NPR is raised, it automatically provides suggestions, which is part of the enterprise edition without limitations. While I don't see immediate room for improvement, one suggestion is for Copilot to provide specific suggestions for certain lines of code instead of rewriting entire sections. If the tool could focus on specific lines where changes are suggested, it would save time and reduce server load.
Sherif Bashar - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers low-code/no-code concept makes development much easier and faster and offers good community support as the development team actively answers questions on the community every day
There are very minor things, like the feature called "action chains," that could use a bit of enhancement. But the team is perfect; they're working on it. An action chain is a sequence of actions triggered by a button or an event. It executes code in order, from top to bottom. For example, it could call a code, call a REST service, and then insert data into a database. It needs enhancement because it can be a bit complex for fresh grads or new developers to understand. It would be better if it was made more readable. That's the main point. But if you have experience, you'll understand it easily. One more thing I want to add about Visual Builder: up until two years ago, it supported native mobile development. That's not available anymore. They replaced native mobile development with progressive web apps, and most customers are complaining about that. We need native mobile development back – the ability to put apps on stores like Google Play or the App Store. That feature is not available right now, and they deprecated it starting in 2024. It's very important. Otherwise, clients go with Flutter or other mobile development tools. It would be good for Oracle to regain that capability. We need the native mobile development feature back.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The document generation features are valuable."
"The product's most valuable feature is vulnerability management features."
"It enhances efficiency and productivity in development."
"The most valuable skill and characteristic of GitHub CoPilot is that you can find any information in seconds."
"In terms of understanding user queries and providing code that aligns with my expectations, there is room for improvement."
"GitHub CoPilot helps us auto-complete code. The tool's context awareness benefits our projects because it identifies the context in which we are working and automatically proposes solutions that we use."
"The product's initial setup is straightforward because it's pushed through the updates."
"Initially, OpenAI is free, but you'll need to pay for it later."
"VBS is another tool that allows users to create enterprise applications without needing to store their projects in traditional databases like SQL."
"The tool is very easy to use."
"The action chains are really helpful, and the trigger event, along with those action chains, has been very helpful."
"You don't need a dedicated IDE to develop. You can work from any browser, which is very convenient. And, with the cloud concept, your code is stored in the cloud, so you can modify it from anywhere, at any time."
"The most valuable feature was the visual drag and drop on the components."
"The initial setup is easy."
 

Cons

"They could simplify the API integrations and allow us to automate certain tasks using our own server without just logging into the web page."
"The technology offered by the product in the retail industry and banking processes has certain shortcomings, making them areas that can be improved."
"In certain instances, OpenAI didn't respond in the expected way. The responses were more general and didn't address the specific point."
"The suggestions provided by the product must be improved."
"Sometimes, if it is a bigger piece of code, it breaks in between."
"The tool must improve its ability to work with multiple files."
"It would be useful if we could use the solution to create documents, not only prompts."
"One drawback is that the solution sometimes suggests unwanted code, especially if I accidentally press the tab. This doesn't happen often. Sometimes it seems to understand my code, but other times it doesn't. This inconsistency is confusing."
"The tool has minor bugs."
"The feature called "action chains" could use a bit of enhancement."
"There are some bugs in VBCS."
"I would improve the license structure as, for some companies, it may seem a little bit expensive, depending on what they're doing."
"There was an attempt to enable front-end development, it did what it intended to do, but the side effects were too bad."
"The initial setup of Oracle VBCS can be challenging for those unfamiliar with DBS."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"GitHub CoPilot comes readily available for enterprise customers, so it's a free add-on if you already have GitHub's enterprise license."
"The solution is costly."
"GitHub CoPilot is less expensive than other solutions."
"GitHub Copilot is a paid service, costing approximately $6 per month. There might be a free trial available."
"The product has a tiered pricing model that starts with a free version for individual developers but requires a separate license fee for enterprise use."
"We have a demo license. Once we understand what we'll do, we'll start with a paid license."
"GitHub CoPilot's pricing is reasonable. Our licensing costs were initially monthly, but then we switched to yearly payments. I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."
"The pricing for GitHub Copilot is around ten dollars per month."
"Oracle Visual Builder Cloud Service is much too expensive."
"It's not expensive when you consider what it provides: low-code/no-code development, faster development time, good quality, and good stability."
