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.
Zain Omer - PeerSpot reviewer
Though a secure tool for building applications, there is a need to improve its stability
There is a lot of room for improvement in Temenos Quantum. Temenos Quantum is not quite stable yet. Improvements can be made to make Temenos Quantum stable. Improvements are needed in the solution, considering how my company needs to raise a lot of tickets with the technical support team of Temenos for some basic issues every time. There are some features in Temenos Quantum that I want to be stabilized by Temenos, just like in Android Studio and Xcode. Building an application using Temenos Quantum is not difficult, but my company needs to seek some support for the solution all the time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of Oracle Application Express (APEX) are the ease and speed of development. Instead of engaging a large team of middleware, front-end, and database engineers, we can have professional look at the front end and have the user interface up and running in a matter of days. However, if you want to go far and implement very custom features, it doesn't require a lot of knowledge of front-end development, such as HTML, JavaScript, or other aspects."
"The most valuable applications within the organization are primarily data forms and extended reports."
"I particularly enjoy the web builder capabilities, especially the Page Designer. It offers so many elements or components to choose from, which is a major plus for me."
"The product is fast."
"Oracle APEX's reporting features are simple yet powerful. The ability to quickly create CRUD screens has simplified many RAD discovery processes, while the APEX environment allows the product owners and dev teams to quickly understand the complex solutions and employ usage statistics to identify areas requiring improvement. The option to add external JavaScript tools in screen development enables the development of complicated mobile or web usage scenarios in rare cases where the APEX UX is not enough."
"Intuitive with a user-friendly UI."
"Oracle Application Express is easy to use, people don't have to be developers to use it."
"I like the fact that it is natively integrated into the Oracle database."
"We can use a single channel to create an interface for iOS, Android, and other channels."
"The visualizer and API manager are super useful. It's easy to create applications for the agent. Automations and other complex tasks can be hard, but it's mostly straightforward. You can create forms and populate tables."
"It is an important solution for reducing the development efforts by developing a mobile application efficiently, in a shorter period of time, across multiple platforms, such as Android and iOS."
"It is a single platform that can cater to mobile and web development requirements, making it convenient for businesses looking to transition into the digital space."
"I like the complete, professional social site."
"The best thing about Temenos Quantum is how it smoothly connects with Temenos Fabric. This simplifies our quantum application by handling identity, authentication, and security tasks seamlessly, saving us from extra coding."
"With the new VM releases, it is a faster product with more abilities that benefit the user."
"The initial setup of Temenos Quantum was easy."
 

Cons

"The solution could provide more AI functionalities or AI assistance."
"The solution's layout could be improved for report generation to allow more configuration."
"Better connection and integration with non-Oracle databases is needed."
"There is one disadvantage. When facing problems, it can be difficult to find solutions online (Google/YouTube), unlike with Java coding, where solutions are readily available on Google."
"Maybe there are other technologies that offer what APEX cannot."
"It can only be deployed on Oracle Database."
"Currently, APEX doesn't have a building workflow engine. I think that's the most important improvement that could be made at this point."
"Occasionally when trying to un a page, I would be faced with an error number; however, not much information would be provided on the error itself outside of the programming language. It would be nice if more information could be provided."
"One area where Temenos Quantum could improve is in the flexibility of widgets and additional libraries."
"Temenos Quantum needs to improve its usability. It lacks information on the network. We have to contact the support when we are stuck with something."
"There are many issues when integrating with native sides when building an Android application of the retail accelerator or an iOS application of the retail actuator. We have to incorporate on the native side of things, which creates a lot of issues. Temenos Quantum is a proprietary product and not open source. There is not much information available on the internet for developers to reference when solving issues. You have to contact the help desk, who will then give you an appointment and work to resolve the issue. In terms of what Temenos can do better, they can make the product more mature so that we do not encounter as many black holes when encountering an issue."
"Using the API manager can be complicated when you're dealing with multiple teams, projects, and APIs. Quantum doesn't have user-based access, so I can't restrict parts of the project to specific users."
"They need to improve their tech support's abilities. They do have a good tech support, but it still requires improvement."
"Temenos Quantum is not quite stable yet."
"It would be highly beneficial if future iterations of Temenos could incorporate support for QR-based payment methods, as it would enhance the platform's capabilities and align it more closely with modern payment trends"
"We would like to have widgets for graphs and analytics, as well as the integration of machine learning."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a trial version available that can be used free of charge."
"Pricing is expensive, overall on an enterprise system but we consider that it gives corresponding value in the product."
"The product is completely free of cost."
"It's a free solution with no additional costs."
"The solution is moderately priced, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"Oracle Express comes with the Oracle license, it is a bundle."
"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."
"If you have a license to Oracle database, you can access APEX."
"This is an expensive solution, and it is the biggest challenge that we face when we present this platform to customers."
"​The price is too high. The annual cost for the Kony license is very high. Every year you have to renew it in order to maintain it​"
"The product is expensive. First, they must purchase the product, and then pay an annual renewal fee. The renewal fee depends on the product details and the license term’s length. Clients can buy licenses for five or ten years and pay for them upfront, or they can set up a yearly renewal cycle."
"It is expensive solution."
"Temenos Quantum is an expensive tool. Taking into consideration my company's use of Temenos Quantum for a bank, the costs attached to the solution ranged from 3,00,000 to 5,00,000 USD for building one application for the bank."
