We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product has been very stable for us so far."
"It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The support is responsive and dedicated to SMEs."
"The design of Microsoft Azure is for it to be scalable and it is scalable."
"The solution is easy to manage within the cloud application, has good performance, and is secure."
"We are satisfied with the technical support."
"One feature I like in Microsoft Azure is its ability to host and run applications on virtual machines. It is a basic yet crucial capability for our team."
"Technical support is good. We are partners with Oracle so we are always speaking with them."
"The solution offers many features and it is a complete replica of our data center."
"The simple infrastructure of the service is very useful."
"I like the solution’s stability, performance, and fault alerts."
"The product enables users to create their own reports."
"We use Oracle Cloud to host the OIC (Oracle Integration Cloud Service) and APEX."
"The most valuable features are the manageability and the user interface."
"I am impressed with the tool's upscaling and resiliency features."
"The deployment was quite complex."
"Integration with other services could be much better."
"Difficult to understand how it works and it's an expensive solution."
"I think Azure Active Directory and also the backup solutions provided in Azure need to be improved by Microsoft. The backup solution is not a very enterprise solution, and it is very simple. I think in comparison with other backup solutions like Nakivo and Veeam Backup, it can be improved to have a lot of options."
"I would recommend some enhancement regarding integration features."
"There was a time when the solution was updated on their side and all of our functions stopped working. This issue could be worked on to prevent it from happening in the future. They must give us the information of when they are going to updates on the platform side so that we can take the appropriate measures on our side as well."
"It can be cheaper, which might simplify things a bit."
"I would like to see Internet content filtering included."
"I work with many clouds and I would say, in comparison, others have a better presentation of services and they have clearer steps in terms of implementation."
"Simplifying the cloud management console would be really valuable for small and large customers alike."
"The scalability requires some improvement. This is one of the most important things they need to get better at."
"Oracle Cloud Platform can improve the integration with hybrid and cross-cloud deployments. It should be a flexible solution with a very well-defined integration with other applications in the hybrid environment. There are certain integrations that are not straightforward."
"It could be more affordable."
"I think that there could be a more user-friendly environment when it comes to the options that Oracle presents through the Oracle Cloud Platform."
"Technical support does not offer the best service and should be improved."
"The packaging part of the software needs improvement. It lacks customization abilities for users. Giving them VMs for machine learning or running their own programs like Azure and Amazon, for example. Things like scalability based on the requirement of the tools. Oracle still lacks these kinds of things. For example, if you need a VM from Oracle, you need to pay for a monthly fee. They started developing containership but it's still at the initial stage and it's still lacking. They also need to develop integration between packages."
