Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control has an amazing GUI interface that does a lot of tasks with fewer steps rather than making it manual on the database or the operating system side.""It is a highly stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.""​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 solution helps database tuning through query ID and SQL ID; we can fine-tune skill parameters and gather information to enhance operational analysis and performance.""The most valuable feature of Oracle EMCC is its flexibility to manage various industries, projects, and tasks.""Using Enterprise Manager, I was able to create user profiles for all the instances that have the same profile. Secondly, it's easier to manage performance, to automate the AWR reports to run every half an hour, or hour. Then, if you have a performance issue you just open the report and you can see what was running the last one hour, the SQL statements, or what was causing the performance issues.""Compared to other monitoring products, the user interface is very clear. It sends clear notifications.""The report feature is very useful."

"What I like best about vCenter Orchestrator is that it makes life easier through automation. People can request to automate all processes with vCenter Orchestrator, such as adding storage, creating VMs, removing VMs, and extending VMs.""The most valuable feature is how easy it makes it to manage the VM.""It is the most cost-effective method for moving data between machines.""The solution's most valuable feature is its good automation features.""We can scale the solution.""The product's initial setup phase was easy.""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.""If I need to do DR, VMware can enable me to use vMotion, which requires use of vCenter. You cannot do vMotion without vCenter. We do a lot of automation, orchestration, and simplification for that purpose."

Cons
"Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control needs to improve its GUI.""You cannot use Enterprise Manager as replacement for a WebLogic console.""One area where Oracle EMCC could improve is file import flexibility.""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 on-premises installation is complex. It should be easier, especially for deploying agents that are running on a Windows machine that is running Oracle databases. It's very complex. Linux based machines aren't so complicated but it's complex for Windows.""The product lacks in the area of database, making it an area where improvements are required.""Because this solution provides insight into all of the areas within the IT stack, it would benefit from enhancements in security.""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."

"Many times, customers' licenses are not used because the client is not aware of the features and the product benefits. When somebody is buying a product, they just do a default configuration.""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.""The product’s cost needs improvement.""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 could be integrated with third-party hypervisors.""The GUI should be enhanced in the future.""I would like to see more automation added in the future.""Its technical support team takes a long time to escalate the issues."

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."
  • "Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control is a little expensive."

  • "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."
