We performed a comparison between Oracle Database and SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Relational Databases Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like that it's a robust product. It has very good features. One good feature is Oracle REX because, in SQL Server, we don't have that. SQL Server has something similar, but it's not the same stuff."
"It does what I want it to do. It has got a lot of features. Anytime I need a feature, I am able to find it in Oracle Database. It has never happened that I found a feature in any other database, but I was not able to find it in Oracle."
"Its performance is good. It is also stable and scalable."
"The features that I have found most valuable are things like cluster setup and RAC One. We are using the main CQN and third party plugin support right now. We are relying on different languages support that we are getting from the Oracle side. It is one of the major areas in which Oracle excels compared to other databases."
"The interface is easy to use."
"Partitioning is the most valuable feature."
"Oracle can quickly expand its capacity to handle growing data needs by adding additional server resources."
"The solution is extremely stable."
"I like that SAP ASE can match code and the database index to index data in the programming language. There are many other valuable features, such as the table buffer, tuning, and various control agents like dispatcher. SAP ASE can handle many different data types, including views, domains, data elements, structures, objects, and various table types that are most useful in the application. Its modularization technique is also handy."
"It's user-friendly, especially in the logistics field."
"The actual interface is good."
"It's pretty good at handling a large number of transactions, which is critical for a banking client."
"SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise is a good transactional database."
"The most valuable part of the tool stems from the fact that it is a very cost-efficient product compared to the newer technologies because it needs a very small amount of RAM."
"Provides very good integration."
"They provide easy integration with other systems."
"When it comes to Oracle, the only complaint that I have is their support. For business-critical cases, finding support is a little bit difficult because of the timezone difference. They should provide faster support to resolve issues on time."
"Oracle Database required some time to learn the basics and how it works. However, this is typical for database solutions."
"The price of the solution should be lower."
"Its security is good, but it could be more secure."
"The cost of this solution needs to be improved."
"There are actually a lot more features for the Oracle Databases. It is almost impossible for a single person to know and give all the features."
"They should reduce its price and provide faster support."
"There are a lot of bugs in the Oracle Database, and it would be better if the bugs would be solved more quickly than they are today."
"Cost-wise, SAP is still expensive compared to other available products."
"There could be some improvements in barcode scanning and RFID access."
"User interface could be more user friendly."
"In my opinion, product support is not that great from SAP because they have already declared the end-of-date for SAP ASE. They will be stopping product support."
"The overall performance of the product is an area where the tool has certain shortcomings and needs to improve."
"I think that the solution needs to be positioned better within the market as it appears as though the Adaptive Server is being left out of the SAP scope."
"SAP should refine its debugging method, and the process needs to be a little faster. It should use more Pragmas and fewer pseudocomments. I would like if SAP added more features based on advanced technologies, like artificial intelligence and voice control. The modularization and if-else techniques could also incorporate the latest technology to code and solve complex problems. The SAP Editor should be more elaborative, and it should allow many more types of statements for all uses."
"Because the solution is customized. we do occasionally face unique bugs. There are always some changes that need to be made here and there."
