We performed a comparison between Apache Web Server and WebLogic Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Infrastructure solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The open-source nature is one of its most significant advantages."
"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward."
"The most significant advantage is the ability to swiftly enable HTTPS services when my DNS is configured correctly."
"The solution's most valuable feature is reporting."
"Its community is its most valuable feature. Solving problems is easier on Apache because so many people know this product."
"Most of the features I liked were related to the performance during peak hours."
"It is scalable."
"The control panel is very easy to navigate. It's similar to most hosting platforms, so it's user-friendly. Once you get used to it, managing your hosting becomes easy, too."
"The most valuable feature of WebLogic is it has excellent performance and stability compared to the previous solution we used."
"What I've been seeing as the most valuable characteristics of WebLogic Suite include robustness and scalability. It's a really good solution, and I'm not saying this because my company is a partner of WebLogic Suite. I also like that with the newer versions of the solution, you can deploy WebLogic Suite faster. Oracle also provides excellent technical support."
"The transaction handling of WebLogic and the way it is designed is excellent."
"The feature that I have found to be the most valuable is the ease of deployment."
"The solution is very scalable. It's easy to add processes even if you are new to the solution."
"The product is reliable."
"It integrates well with other solutions."
"It easily connects to other Oracle products and services."
"Adding a reverse proxy to Apache Web Server would be a significant improvement."
"The product's initial setup process could be easier for users."
"Its stability could be better."
"So far, for us, everything is okay."
"There is a security-related problem that depends on the web server's configuration."
"A monitoring interface would be great for this product. The monitoring dashboards for Apache's models are not included in the basic installation. You can install the basic monitoring model, then connect this model to another monitoring system."
"I want the user interface to be more user-friendly."
"The interface has room for improvement."
"I noticed a few areas for improvement in WebLogic Suite. If you use the pure play higher-availability features, then yes, it can be switched over to the other system from the high-availability point of view, but that comes with a certain price. If you prefer simpler high-availability, that requires manual intervention. I'd also recommend a tuning feature in WebLogic Suite because it's not self-tuning, and this means you need thorough expertise to do the tuning and leverage the best benefit out of it. If Oracle makes WebLogic Suite automated or self-driven, then it becomes a wonderful product, similar to what Oracle did for the Autonomous Database which is self-driven or has an autonomous operating system. If automation is added in the next release of the solution, combined with more affordable pricing, though as a technical person, I know how much goes into having automation as a feature, and it could be difficult to lower the price, but if Oracle can do it, then that would make WebLogic Suite better."
"There are sometimes issues with clusters."
"Lacking a solution for smaller applications."
"The licensing for the solution is pretty expensive. It may be the most expensive solution, if you were to compare it to the competition."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of a ripple start function for clusters."
"I think the support could be much better."
"I rate the scalability of WebLogic Suite an eight out of ten."
"I would like to see the licensing policy simplified."
