DevExpress Universal vs. Oracle Java SE Subscription

DevExpress can help you create the big web app of your dreams. DevExpress works great with data-centered enterprise-level applications that require the use of enterprise-grade data grids, pivottables, and integrate them with all the widgets like buttons, popups, forms, etc. I would not recommend DevExpress for small apps that require only basic widgets like radio/select boxes, buttons, text boxes, etc. You can get those widgets for free or even make your own.

[Oracle Java SE Subscription] has been highly beneficial as no additional trained resources needed to be allocated for managing and handling the Java SE applications. Also it has minimal operational cost. The support team of Java SE Subscriptions are always available 24*7, the applications are always up-to-date due to frequent update and patches

As I mentioned before, quality of support from Oracle Java SE Subscription is extraordinary. The speed of resolution and the expertise of the staff is really appreciated. We raised a high priority support incident which blocked our process [and] Oracle Java SE support did a quick analysis and provided a solution which took less time than we expected. They also help us in installing patches and updates whenever required.

Infragistics Ignite was the main contender in our internal review.

However it was not offering as many advanced components as we were a need for, or not as advanced as we would have hoped.

And it was unknown to most of the team while we already knew DevExpress Ultimate from previous proof of concept work.

As Java has been developed by Oracle, you can rely on them being the best providers for support and implementation of Java across a large variety of systems. The support staff around the SE subscription have been exceptionally helpful throughout the entire process from purchasing to post-installation support. The subscription itself gives you a strong development platform along with access to a variety of useful tools all of which are on par with other industry-standard systems. The simple UI and strong inter-connectivity with other Oracle systems far exceed what other providers are trying to provide.
