We performed a comparison between Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control and VMware Aria Operations based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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 tool's most valuable feature is notifications. It is also flexible in defining metrics where you can specify any metric type. Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control helps monitor the resources you manage so that you do not overpay."
"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."
"We have been satisfied with technical support."
"The solution is stable. It is great in terms of Oracle products, especially for Oracle databases."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle EMCC is its flexibility to manage various industries, projects, and tasks."
"The solution is reliable."
"It is a highly stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"It allows me to see how my entire infrastructure is performing in a simplified manner."
"VM rightsizing is another very good feature and capacity planning is something else that I like about it."
"One of the most valuable features is that it gives us granular insight into how the infrastructure is operating and running, down to the storage level, the hypervisor level, even the hardware level. It really gives us a deep dive into what is going on and lets us see. Instead of our having to figure it out, it figures it out for us. It is also user-friendly and intuitive."
"The dashboards and the interface are very easy to understand, very lively, and very dynamic."
"I have integrated vROps with vRealize Log Insight and vRealize automation. After integrating vRealize, we tried to split and combine the logs from the login sites for more alerts and information to organize the whole infrastructure and have automation. We used many different types of scripts trying to orchestrate them all together into one solution, replacing, for example, Elasticsearch and some other scripts."
"I've found vROps' predictive actions, monitoring, reporting, and provisioning features to be useful."
"The main point of installing, deploying, and troubleshooting with vRealize Operations is to provide visual dashboards to ensure that the entire workload is functioning properly."
"I like the fact that the performance is good and that it makes it easy to consolidate all your servers."
"It is sometimes difficult to create configurations in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control."
"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."
"The initial setup depends on your experience. For example, for people who are doing it for the first time, it's probably difficult."
"I've had both positive and negative experiences with support. Its compatibility with the rest of the products in the market is less."
"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."
"The response time of the solution's technical support team is too long and should be improved."
"When registering a host, only if your host is running Linux will you get all the information which is available on EM. It would be nice if in future releases to include IBM AIX (primarily) and Microsoft Windows (secondly)."
"It's crucial to promptly resolve agent-related issues to ensure continuous and accurate monitoring of database features within the Oracle Enterprise Manager."
"In terms of what could be improved or added to VMware vRealize Operations (vROps), from my experience, it needs more work in the ITSM space because my company never used it as an IT service management tool."
"For the initial setup, there should be some sort of auto discovery of the environment. That should be enabled. It has the ability to discover a main node, but it could still be made easier, to reduce the initial configuration and setup time."
"vROps is, by its nature, a very complex product."
"It's complex to manage because there are a lot of options and metrics. It's complex when you want to do something very specific."
"I would like more application dashboards to be available."
"More HTML 5 would also be good. I wish vSphere Client would mirror it. I wish they announced it on day one of 6.7."
"We would like to see an improved licensing model to be set up for this solution. The current model charges per CPU, as opposed to being product-based, which would allow us to monitor our complete virtual infrastructure under a single license."
"One of the most valuable features was the cluster modeling, but they took that away... They keep saying that it's going to be back in the next release and that's what we're looking for. We really want that back."
