Develop more in less time. I think that is the whole benefit of upgrading to 4.0. Everything that has been changed adds to productivity. From the way you interact with APEX (the tree-view) to the features you would like to build (using plug-ins etc.), it's all changed towards speed. So the benefits for the business are obvious: they get better applications in less time (aka. less money). Developers have much more possibilities, so APEX 4 adds to the fun in development. And end-users get richer, more user-friendly applications. There is so much in APEX 4.0 that makes Application Express a much better product, but I think this is the bombshell. P.S. The back is still sore, but getting better. The cat is still too fast for me to catch, so it gets to live a bit longer ;-) The best new feature is (in my opinion) also the best business reason: higher productivity. Develop more in less time.
