Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The tool is mainly for monitoring databases, especially focusing on performance. It supports various databases, including Oracle, allowing daily activity monitoring. The solution enables displaying performance metrics, providing continuous tracking. It also offers management capabilities for connected databases, featuring graphical performance graphs. Users can perform tasks like killing sessions and controlling database elements. Additionally, it allows viewing tables, SAN disks, and other database components.""The valuable feature is job scheduling. It manages the database's scheduling, history, and growth, helping monitor CPU and space usage across the entire data center. It provides a comprehensive view of operations.""The capability to manage incidents, monitor agent statuses, and address performance issues is highly valuable.""The report feature is very useful.""Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control gives us diverse monitoring capability that can be extremely powerful.""One of the clearest examples is the agility of discovering processes/sessions that are burdening the database environment. With this agility, the DBA can more quickly verify this type of problem, in addition to checking locked sessions and not having to do several searches in views and tables of the data dictionary. The tool already does this for you in an agile way.""You can create a system group (database, application, and web server), so you can monitor performance as a system.""​The solution provides very useful insights for application and database performance tuning. We were able to do away with guess work in determining where the bottlenecks were in application performance.​"

"The hardware abstraction layer, being able to make the VMs portable when moving to a different platform or over a WAN.""We can scale the solution.""vCenter Orchestrator is very reliable and stable.""The storage motion is a good feature. It is a very good tool.""The most crucial feature of vCenter is its scalability. We can use it to expand our network, so we don't have to report our client devices. The network configuration features are also helpful because we can migrate entire networks.""It is very stable. I have been using vCenter Orchestrator from version three now to six plus.""Technical support is helpful.""The solution's ability to template and easily implement are the most valuable features. It offers good replication as well."

Cons
"They need to simplify it and make it lighter.""Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control needs to improve its GUI.""It's crucial to promptly resolve agent-related issues to ensure continuous and accurate monitoring of database features within the Oracle Enterprise Manager.""The installation steps are very complex and the documentation for them is very generic and does not make very clear the correct steps from the installation to the addition of the host and database.""The product lacks in the area of database, making it an area where improvements are required.""There is a lot of information required to deal with the vulnerabilities in the product on a timely basis, for which the documentation part is not available.""Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control manages the monitoring and the graphs. Other tools complement the base monitoring. Zabbix is efficient with space pressure.""There is a lack from the point of view of monitoring on the system. The performance of the system and its resources are things that I think can be improved. There needs to be real-time monitoring available on the solution."

"I would like to see more automation added in the future.""This is an expensive solution.""Its technical support team takes a long time to escalate the issues.""The price of this product is high and could be improved.""Storage has room for improvement. It's a big problem for our solution. The interface also needs improvement, it should be simplified.""VMware tools would benefit from more automation. When installing our devices and servers, we often need to install the VMware tools manually. This process should be automated during the VM installation process.""It is practically difficult at this stage to really comment on the improvisations of V central. But more tech events and PoC cases would help the EA to design better solutions and utilization.""The solution's price could be cheaper."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We are using the free version. We are not using any licensed packages of Enterprise Manager, so I’m not quite sure how much each package is. As I understand it, there are different plug-ins that you need to buy for Enterprise Manager."
  • "The licensing costs are largely too high."
  • "Our customer uses Oracle Universal Credits to pay for their license on an annual basis. The price is definitely affordable."
  • "One has to pay for the enterprise version."
  • "On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."
  • "The tool's pricing is competitive."
  • "Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control is a pretty expensive solution but worth the money."

  • More Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Our licensing is on a yearly basis. We pay for the license and then we pay the support every year."
  • "This solution is expensive and the licensing is more attractive for Haveri."
  • "The price is reasonable, and one of the reasons that this product was selected."
  • "We provide the VMware solution to our clients, for which they pay a perpetual license."
  • "The concept of hyper-convergence is smart. I don't know if it can be applied with less cost to be more affordable for small or medium-sized companies. The cost is a very important factor for it. We are currently depending on SAN storage. However, the hyper-converged solutions are depending on the storage within the hosts, such as vSAN in the VMware. It is a smart solution."
  • "We pay a yearly fee, based on our entries."
  • "The licensing module is somewhat complex. Calculating the cost is complicated. Many of our clients are unclear about the billing system and the traffic metering."
  • "The licensing cost is manageable because they have different versions available, standard, essential, and advanced."
