    Oracle WebLogic Server
    Considered Both Products
    Oracle
    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    I have only used WebSphere for an evaluation period but I felt it was even harder to learn and it's cost was going to be bigger in the long run. Oracle WebLogic Server was more like the middle ground for what we needed at the time, both in terms of costs and learning curve.

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    As mentioned earlier we didn't choose Oracle WebLogic Server, but received it as part of the application we bought. After using it for a few years we found it to be a stable product that has a bit of a learning curve compared to Microsoft IIS but is as stable and maybe even …

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    I wasn't involved in selecting the server we were using but in our team we've made some efforts to improve the local deployment process by trying some other Applicational servers too.
    Apache Tomcat was a more lightweight solution for sure, and it coped well with our applications …

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    I believe the Oracle WebLogic Suite is probably a better all encompassing suite of development tools for the IT department. [It] is probably a bit more expensive than other competitors like Apache Tomcat or NGINX, but is worth the investment if you consider the savings from …

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    We have no option because we need it to use Oracle Forms, but we have used Jboss and tomcat in other projects and Weblogic is more stable.

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    Oracle WebLogic Application Server is a leading server side container. It is far superior than IBM's WebSphere application server, JBOSS or Tomcat server. The easiness of using Oracle's weblogic application server is much user friendly and also it has great support and user …

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    Oracle Weblogic Application Server gains its reputation from the performance, easy of maintenance, to be compared with the competitor solutions. However, Weblogic is "all-in-on" solution, sometimes it is too fat for some business needs that only requires part of the full …

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    The main competitor is Wildfly and Websphere. The choice it's all about the bundled cost regarding the chosen OS and Java vendor. All three are almost the same in terms of performance and features. An exceptional alternative from the OSS ecosystem is Payara. Payra has some …

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    Oracle WebLogic Application Server is much more stable when compared to opensource application servers like Oracle GlassFish Server or Apache Tomcat. Coming to JBoss Enterprise Application Server, Oracle WebLogic Application Server has better support with most of the cloud …

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    Apache Tomcat requires a lot of out-of-the-box set-up that is difficult to work with, especially when it comes to production-ready configurations. The only advantage it has over Oracle WLS is that it's free, which is probably why many commercial server products are bundled with …

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    Apache Tomcat is used by the group of developers in our organization but the major student ERP production systems do run on WebLogic due to its feature-rich nature and stability. Although the cost is considered a hindrance to its wider use.

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    WebSphere is another major contender and they have pitching and are more updated/streamlined. I still prefer WebLogic from an administrator standpoint. Support is much better and there are more options for finding answers to issues or new features.

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    Red Hat JBoss EAP is good and open source. We chose Oracle WebLogic because we are using Oracle products like Oracle Enterprise Manager and it's very easy to integrate WebLogic with it. Also, for our mission critical applications, we wanted an application server with great …

    Chose Oracle WebLogic Server
    Compared to the alternatives, Weblogic is on the heavier side and requires more configuration to get it running. Instance startup time is also relatively long, but this could be due to the application size deployed on the server. Licensing cost for WebLogic would also be higher …
