When it comes to ease of development of a web/database/forms application?
I am biased because I spend a lot of time on it, but I have yet to see a platform that can support the creation of a generic web based business application as easily as JDE.
Sometimes I have a client that wants a small application outside of JDE... in the past these might have been thrown together with VB or MSAccess. But I've not seen anything web based to compare.
Oracle APEX is ok, but either its paradigm is too restricting or I am too entrenched in the JDE paradigm. Plus the coding is in PLSQL...
Most of the other tools I know ... asp.net, java etc all require as much if not more coding to build a "hello world" app than JDE needs to build a reasonable Find/Browse plus Fix/Inspect application.
Am I missing something? Is there a comparable web application development tool out there under which I can simply build some forms and data-models with a GUI and drop some event code in to create a small application for a 3 user business?
Cheers
