What do you like best about Oracle JDeveloper?

What I liked most about this application was the fast and user-friendly interface that allows you to program without problems, and also that Oracle is one of the most used technologies today, so it has everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle JDeveloper?

What I liked the least was that it has certain hidden options, and until you have used it quite a bit, you don't have it at hand and work quite slowly until you get used to the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My first development environment for Java in Oracle Package"
What do you like best about Oracle JDeveloper?

In my opinion, the best thing about it is its integration with Oracle; it is a development environment that is quite simple and easy to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle JDeveloper?

The worst thing might be the lack of documentation available for the product; it could be more complete to better facilitate adaptation to it. Its interface should improve a bit more to be on par with Eclipse. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
