"I give it a nine out of 10 because it gives the customer easy access to a complete database solution within 30 minutes."
"The product’s valuable feature is its capability to pre-configure and pre-install the settings."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Database Appliance is the ease of management."
"We value the appliance architecture with its “everything-in-a-box” highly standardized setup."
"NVM Express (NVMe) solid-state drives: This technology brings outstanding I/O performance for midsize databases. We have tested it by doing POCs on customer sites and the results were quite satisfying."
"Oracle Database Appliance is a stable solution. We have clients that have been running it for 10 years."
"We use the solution for our Java applications."
"The Oracle database is able to get the data, process it, and return it to the company's CEO's and CFO's within a single day, and thus they are able to find out yesterday's P and L by today. It has drastically reduced the amount and time of processing from seven days to one day."
"The ability to reset the log file without stopping the DBMS would be helpful for us."
"Sometimes, we cannot upgrade or patch it easily. The performance needs to improve."
"Virtualization features could also be improved. A web-based GUI would be a good start."
"The product's technical support services need improvement."
"The license cost could be cheaper, especially for long-term contracts."
"I would like it if the scalability could be increased without having to change versions."
"I would be happy to see the Oracle Auto Service Request (ASR) pre-installed in it instead of installing it in a separate machine."
