    Hi @Vivek Dasi

    Both Apex and Flows are powerful tools within the Salesforce ecosystem, but according to business needs and problem complexity they are used differently

     

    Use apex over flows when :-

    1. To perform a couple of business processes that are not supported by workflows or processes or salesforce flows.
    2. To perform complex validations on multiple objects.
    3. To create web services(REST Resource) and email services.
    4. For transactions and rollbacks.

    Use Flow When

    •  Building guided user experiences and automating business processes declaratively.
    • They are suitable for scenarios where users need to interact with the system through a series of screens/forms and perform actions based on predefined logic.
    • Flows can handle complex logic but are typically more user-friendly and maintainable than Apex code.

    while both Apex and Flows can achieve similar outcomes, Apex is more suitable for complex business logic and integration scenarios, whereas Flows excel at building guided user experiences and automating business processes in a user-friendly manner without writing code. Choosing between them depends on the specific requirements of your use case and your organization's preference for declarative vs. programmatic solutions.
