Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution helps secure the database.""It is quite a stable solution.""We had a crash of the backup system and the IBM DB2 was always up and consistent. It's robust, and for us, it was always up and running.""The solution has very good data compression of up to 50%. For example, if you have 50 terabytes of data, it can be reduced to 25 terabytes.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the integration with other IBM products.""The stability of IBM Db2 Database is stable. We have not faced any downtime in one year. Our work is mostly during business hours and during that time, we haven't faced any downtime.""The solution can scale.""The solution is stable."

Cons
"The only drawback that we see in Db2 Database is the crash recovery. When there is a crash and somebody has to do the recovery, Db2 Database first stops, and then it does any crash recovery. In Oracle Database, crash recovery happens within the database. The database is not shut down.""The application development requires a Java developer and not every company has these resources.""The initial setup could be improved.""The solution could be more modern and have updated database technology.""The command line part of this solution could be much better.""The queries can be difficult for beginners because there are so many. I would like to see more use cases for flow analysis that enable us to correlate the flow with events. Adding this feature in a QI format would be good for beginners.""GUI needs improvement.""It would be ideal if the solution offered backup functionality. Many similar tools already do, which means Db2 is somewhat behind the curve in terms of what a customer might expect from it."

"The knowledge base is quite small and should be expanded.""In PL/SQL code, there is a scope of improvement. We expect more PL/SQL packages should be included in the next release."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "They are competitive and honest (compared to how peer firms approach licensing conversations). ​"
  • "Compared to Oracle, it is so much cheaper."
  • "Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."

  • "I think that everyone knows that with IBM the standard price is higher than the others."
  • "Db2 is less expensive than Oracle."
  • "We did not buy it. It came with our hardware without any complimentary maintenance. If I compare Db2 Database with Oracle Database, its price is lower than Oracle Database."

    Questions from the Community
    Top Answer:Db2 database scalability and performance capabilities match our database needs. It covers pretty much everything a database administrator or engineer might need.
    Top Answer:I would rate the pricing a five out of ten. Since it's a government contract, the rates are negotiated and agreed upon with the government. So, it's not like the standard market price. It's not super… more »
