"Oracle JDeveloper Reviews"
What do you like best about Oracle JDeveloper?

The best thing about JDeveloper is it is a free tool and we are using it for developing java, oracle applications, and packages. It is easily get integrated with oracle middleware and provides a nice GUI for text. its other best wizards are the generation of repetitive code which helps our team members to write once and use it many times advantage. JDeveloper’s web application development environment includes a drag-and-drop function that allows users to bring one element of the design from one place to another simply by clicking on them and drawing the cursor to the destination.

What do you dislike about Oracle JDeveloper?

The major issue about JDeveloper is that it is taking longer loading time as well as tool is consuming higher memory of your computer. Another thing is JDeveloper configuration is not an easy task, it is problematic work. no Autosave option is available which causes the loss of code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI is quite interactive and user friendly. It have lot of inbuild features which helps a lot for faster application development.

If you are using ADF framework then jdev helps a lot of quick configurationa and development. it supports versioning so helpful to recover your old code easily. It has a built in WebLogic server to test your applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
