Cons
"Adding new databases is difficult in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control.""The product lacks in the area of database, making it an area where improvements are required.""The only negative thing about this product is that it doesn't support all environments or all applications.""Another point that can be improved is the agent instability in the monitored hosts, because sometimes an agent has to be resynchronized to recapture the information.""It is sometimes difficult to create configurations in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control.""They need to simplify it and make it lighter.""The configuration is not straightforward for web continuity. It needs some improvement and the deployment is expensive.""One of the things that can be improved is the quality of results generated by BI Publisher. They are somewhat confusing when it comes to analysis."

"The GUI should be enhanced in the future.""We encounter challenges related to the renewal of support subscriptions.""There can be compatibility issues.""I would like to see a greater ability to do mobile administration.""I believe vCenter Orchestrator should be part of VMware vSphere's basic bundle. As a product, vCenter Orchestrator should not be licensed at all because the world has progressed way beyond what it can offer.""Storage has room for improvement. It's a big problem for our solution. The interface also needs improvement, it should be simplified.""We would like more flexibility in sizing data storage and virtual machines, as the current options aren't very adaptable.""I believe a transparent view and better terms of condition between Oracle and vCenter Orchestrator would be helpful."

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."

  • "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."
