"The solution is pretty stable."
"The Script Module in Nagios is really easy to use and is really cost efficient."

"Oracle Enterprise Manager is a scalable solution."
"We use it extensively for performance tuning testing, monitoring, and configuration."
"The solution is easy to use and has good performance."

"It's easy to implement as it's made by Oracle for Oracle."

"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."

"There are limited numbers of other OEM devices that can be integrated into enterprise management that can be scaled by Oracle by adding other OEM devices to enterprise management."
"I feel more dashboards can be added, especially those useful to higher levels of IT management."
"The solution's agents work with Java, and the Java code sometimes consumes a lot of memory on the CPU."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager's scalability is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The product is pretty comprehensive, but quite resource hungry. This might be due to the majority of the application seemingly being written in Java."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
