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

"I like that Oracle Application Express (APEX) is powerful and attractive, allowing my organization to modernize forms within two months. I also found its PWA feature very powerful because you can produce substantial mobile applications."
"It's stable and reliable for the most part."
"I like the fact that it is natively integrated into the Oracle database."
"Oracle APEX is very easy to use and comes with a lot of ready-made components that speed up the process of creating reports and dashboards."
"With only a browser, it is very easy to develop in a web environment."
"The solution can build functionalities in a very short time."
"The solution can efficiently translate from English to another language including Arabic using the XLIFF format."
"Oracle APEX is very easy to use and comes with a lot of ready-made components that speed up the process of creating reports and dashboards."
"Comparing other solutions with Temenos Quantum, the later is less mature and presents several issues. Implementing Temenos Quantum has been challenging, resembling a nightmare compared to the smoother experience with the other."
"Its greatest advantage lies in its exceptional security and robustness."
"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."
"With the new VM releases, it is a faster product with more abilities that benefit the user."
"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."
"The main benefit lies in its exceptional speed of implementation."
"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."
"You can do rapid development across multiple platforms.​"
 

Cons

"There is a problem with security because the applications store passwords in the configuration files."
"The format is not recognized by Microsoft Word products."
"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."
"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."
"The migration process is difficult in Oracle Application Express."
"Source control could be stronger in Oracle Application Express (APEX). It needs some work."
"Visual Builder and APEX should meld in one product."
"The solution's layout could be improved for report generation to allow more configuration."
"They need to improve their tech support's abilities. They do have a good tech support, but it still requires improvement."
"One area where Temenos Quantum could improve is in the flexibility of widgets and additional libraries."
"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"
"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."
"The security and the interface technology could be better in Temenos Quantum. Additionally, a module that can display all the activities that have been done in the system would be helpful."
"There is definitely room for improvement, especially in the areas of AI, AR, and DR for mobile and web applications"
"Temenos Quantum is not quite stable yet."
"When developing our application, we also encountered certain issues related to delays and time-consuming builds."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe APEX comes bundled with the database, including autonomous database and other related database products, so the pricing is quite reasonable."
"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."
"I do not think this would be an ideal option for a small sized company or a startup when considering the salary requirements for Oracle DBA'a and developers."
"When buying the data license, APEX is included."
"It's a free solution with no additional costs."
"I would rate it around an eight in terms of price, with one being low and ten being high."
"It is expensive, but I don't know what the licensing cost is."
"The tool is not expensive."
"This is an expensive solution, and it is the biggest challenge that we face when we present this platform to customers."
"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."
"​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​"
"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."
"It is expensive solution."
