Great development environment, which integrates the basic and advanced J2EE development
The development of components in java: web applications, ejb (mdb), jca has been facilitated for the developments to be implemented in weblogic platforms.
The design of uml diagrams is limited in terms of diagrams but it is quite practical.
The developments with BPM are perfectly integrated in this IDE as well as those of OSB and SOA.
Pros
Integrated development of different ORACLE technologies
Easy integration with agile development components.
Easy integration with software versioning components
Well-defined developer type roles from database development to SOA and BPM development
Cons
Sometimes it creates problems with old versions of svn.
Sometimes it generates problems on the dependencies of some component when changes are made.
The version that includes SOA / OSB and BPM can generate problems with the edition of xml that contain definitions of adapters and their dependencies.

Oracle's preferential IDE
JDeveloper has given me great confidence when it comes to making business applications. The support of JDeveloper, of all Oracle is formidable.
Pleases very little that is not intuitive or easy to handle, it requires a high level of expertise to handle it.
Pros
Quality of use guaranteed, characteristics of the highest quality.
With JDeveloper you can create lots of quality business applications.
The software provides customer support, in person depending on the country and location or online.
Cons
JDeveloper is well known in the middle, but it is complex to use it. It is required to use it with guidance or assistance.
It has been difficult to make an application with JDeveloper software. Its difficulty increases as progress is made in the development of applications.

Jdeveloper: a Java IDE for better integration with the Oracle Database
Great Java Development environment.
Pros
It's easy management features and facilitated integration with GitHub and the Oracle database.
Cons
Very lagging at some points probably since it is developed on top of the Java JVM. The code autocompletion features are much better in Netbeans and Eclipse.

this software is a great suite for application development with ORACLE products, buttttt you...
I learned the SOA architecture, with this software, configuration of the oracle products, configuration of the weblogic that is something difficult for new users, but it is very good for business environments where great resources are handled
Pros
is a great program for development under Oracle environment, par excellence offers several development applications such as HTML, ADF, BPM, SOA, PL / SQL, offers very good support even though I used it when I was in version 11g I do not complain about software, I recommend it 100% if you are an Oracle user
Cons
good as all business software, the great oracle offers good benefits as long as you acquire licenses that are very expensive in some cases, on the other hand, in the version you use, it usually consumes many resources both of space and memory, apart that its configuration and integration with other products tends to be tedious

Functionality of jdeveloper
I recommend this tool because, as an SOA consultant, it facilitates the design and development of composite applications
Pros
JDeveloper allows developers to model, create, discover, assemble, organize, test, implement and maintain composite applications based on services.
It is easy to use and streamlines the development.
Simplifies application development
Cons
It consumes a lot of ram memory and in some occasions this tool gets slow.
It is very delicate, since sometimes the files are corrupted

In my work I use JDeveloper to develop Java, SOA and BPM applications to achieve implementation...
It allows me to complete my job and complete the implementations where I need to develop a Java Application, SOA composites, BPM processes and OSB pipelines. It allows to shorten time of developing and work with the develop team in a way that the job is done faster and with less errors.
Pros
JDeveloper has all required tools to develop an application for any of it products, it provides all required tools to complete the life cycle of the application. Also it has an integrated Weblogic runtime environment so you dont have to do extra job downloading more files, configuration etc.
It has integration with other tools like Git so you can work with your team on the same application.
The Oracle community is big so you find many tutorials that makes it easy to develop on JDeveloper and how to manage it.
It provides many options to create Webservices with just one click and many other things so you don´t have to spend much time to develop an application, the developing is faster.
Cons
The product requires by default much memory of your computer, so if you have a team of developers you will have to do some adjustment to your laptops in order to run JDeveloper smoothly.

is more practical when debugging and integrating with the weblogic console, fabulous
develop OSB web services for companies, easier to develop, less time and more benefits
Pros
I like the way in which tests can be done, the tools for development, how debugging is done, how development is integrated in the weblogic console without importing and exporting, but directly by this ide I can do it by configuring, the improvements as soon as the graph
Cons
the configuration and installation of it, is a little problematic to do it, but when you have a version of oracle, and domains with other ides, it is very heavy as far as RAM is concerned, if you use it for java development you forget how to program in java since you only bring components, it could be said that it would be an advantage but only for loose programming.

to be the first time I used the software I found it quite easy to use
rapids for software deployments
Pros
* its wizards to generate repetitive code, it's great, since I love the reuse of the code
* has good integration with weblogic, for projects that use it highly recommended
* Unify the development of DDBB with that of the application.
*What I like most about this software is how fast it starts, it has a very friendly interface for the development
Cons
the only thing I could say against is the weight of the client, for users with very slow internet, it becomes complicated to download it

It is a very complete tool for the development of projects in Java, BPM and SOA.
Simplifies the development of a BPM / ADF project, allowing to focus on the project's own requirements.
Pros
Among the advantages of the tool we have:
- It facilitates the development of the projects, because it simplifies the work by building a base at the moment of generating the application, in this way the developer focuses on building the business logic of his project.
-
Cons
- It needs many resources in the harward so that it can be used efficiently.
- Sometimes it does not recognize the changes when modifying a project.

I worked with JDeveloper for about 6 months
Personally, I think the biggest benefit is being able to develop code easily and quickly, since it helps you a lot to complement what you are doing.
Pros
Free environment
Developed exclusively for Java
Compatible with operating systems: Linux, Mac and Windows.
It allows to advance quickly in the development of code that means a lot of code in a semi-automatic way.
It's good enough to create visual interfaces.
Cons
It is very heavy and slows the execution of programs.
Requires a computer with enough hardware resources.

A fit in the Oracle ecosystem for Java
JDeveloper is a free proprietary software with lots of features beyond Java EE like SOA, modelling, and databases. Despite its acceptable quality and a big company behind, it does not seem to be a choice for a Java development anymore.
I used JDeveloper very frequently in the past and liked it a lot, however, it couldn't keep the pace of other lighter free IDEs focused on productivity and performance.
Pros
It integrates seemlessly with Oracle Java tools and frameworks. For instance, it is very straightforward to create projects using ADF and manage data residing in an Oracle Database or Oracle Express, and then deploy to a WebLogic Application Server.
It is a complete IDE (syntax highlighting, code navigation & completion, refactoring, etc.) and supports out of the box most Java EE technologies, eg. JSF, EJB, JPA, JTA, JAX-RS and much more. It also has the usual: code versioning, maven integration, debugging and so on.
Cons
Unfortunately I dislike several things. Since Oracle has shifted its attention away from Java, this product has shown almost no evolution in the last four years (the product simply stalled at version 12.2). They have been doing just bug fixes. There were some rumours about Oracle launching a revamped JDeveloper 19c in the last quarter of 2019 but that certainly didn't happen.
JDeveloper's full installer is huge (close to 3GB). That's quite a lot regardless of how many features it may exhibit. The installation already bundles the Oracle Java SDK inside which indicates a vendor lock-in intention from Oracle. In my experiments I had no way to make JDeveloper run properly with OpenJDK or Amazon Correto (a free version of Java SDK with long term support).
Fortunately, they advertise a minimal JDeveloper version ~ 90MB which is functional but it is a fit for simple smaller projects only.
Upon recurrent usage the UI hangs and sometimes unexpected errors popup. Sadly, restarting the application is often needed.

muchas funcionalidades , pero problemas de estabilidad
Personally, I use jdeveloper 12.2.1.3 as an environment for the development of REST and SOAP services. It is part of my daily work. Either to develop new services or to update existing developments. Being the recommended IDE for the oracle soa suite makes it a tool of great use in daily work.
Pros
This is a development environment that can be used for various purposes, database-level development (stored procedures, triggers, among others). It can also be used for java development. As for the development of SOAP and REST services and service compositions in BPEL.
Cons
In some cases, when an application has several projects, problems arise when opening one of these projects. Artifacts are displayed in an unsuitable state or not shown in the graphic view. Especially in oracle service bus projects of version 12.2.1.3. In some cases when uploading an update of a project directly from jdeveloper to the weblogic console, the changes are not shown especially if the changes correspond to xquery files.

Cons
It comes to be really slow when you are implementing business process, because it takes a really big amount of RAM memory

Jdeveloper review
Overall, jdeveloper is an effective IDE for developers to create an enterprise application on weblogic platform.
Pros
Jdeveloper IDE offers the productive environment to develop enterprise applications or simple applications in a friendly manner.
we can have different perspective in the Jdeveloper, for example- we can create simple Java application, Java EE application, Oracle SOA , Oracle OSB, Oracle BAM, Oracle ADF and EJB Applications etc
It also supports to have a SQL perspective where we can connect database and run the query.
It has inbuilt weblogic servers which we can make use for initial validations.
It is great tool, to create a transformation mapping using XSLT and Xquery. we have number of plugins available for jdeveloper to make use it in one single tool.
Cons
This tool is very heavy and it consumes more CPU usage.
Sometimes jdeveloper hangs and exit the application at rare scenarios.

It's a great IDE all in one just like all Oracle products
Integration with oracle full stack products.
Pros
Integration capacity, Pipeline development and Composite development (besides all basic functions for an IDE) makes Jdev the best in his kind, without mention the full stack plugins for integrating other technologies
Cons
The embeded weblogic environment for it can be confusing at the beginners. form my point of view it has many issues (memory) working on windows.

Jdeveloper IDE consumes much memory to startup and crashes many times without showing proper...
Ease of development
Pros
Suitable for most of the J2EE projects and especially oracle related products like ADF, WCP & JSF Framework etc.,
We can also develop / deploy SOA projects and latest version supports OSB development.
Good thing is we can make connection to target servers and deploy directly from JDeveloper and it is very much helpful for developers.
Cons
Consumes much memory and disk space, crashes while we do development activities or middle of some thing, due to this it's suggestible to save the workspace frequently

Fabulous software for developing different applications like Java, SOA and BPM.
Pros
JDeveloper is an outstanding software with highest quality and sophisticated characteristics. It is used for doing a lot of businesses. Using different applications of this software, enhances our business. It is considered to be the most essential part of my daily work. As it is free so one can easily design program considering different languages. It lets my work to be done very quickly so it saves my time.
Cons
In the beginning, its layout seems to be difficult because it is quite complex. For convenience people have to take guidance. One of the con is that sometimes while implementing business on this software, system get slow because a large amount of RAM memory is needed for this software.

Great developer tool for standard java programs and more
In general terms it was a great experience.
Pros
Since 12 version, the integration and flexibility increased.I was able to develop everything in one single place without any issue
Cons
If you want to create a service bus project version 11 and lower it just can be done in Eclipse. That's a little annoying.
