We performed a comparison between IBM InfoSphere Optim and Oracle Enterprise Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Database Development and Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We like that we can easily restore the database with just a few clicks. The database is linked as well."
"I feel the solution to be a bit faster than the traditional methods, which makes it easy to customize."
"I think the look and feel and the accessibility to the databases, the scale of environment support."
"We use it extensively for performance tuning testing, monitoring, and configuration."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager has eased the responsibilities among our DBAs. We can now assign individual tasks to separate DBAs."
"Due to the infrastructure's size, the introduction they offer is very, very useful. It helps with an overall understanding of the product."
"With ASH Analytics, ADDM, Real-Time SQL Monitoring, SQL Tuning Advisor, we can measure SLAs, detect performance hotspots, perform deep diagnostics into specific tiers, tune applications, and remediate."
"I have found the singular GUI feature very helpful. Fewer DBA resources can be allocated with Toad licenses."
"The most valuable feature is high availability."
"It's easy to implement as it's made by Oracle for Oracle."
"We're looking for a solution that can be implemented on AWS. IBM InfoSphere Optim can be implemented on AWS, but it costs more than double what we're currently paying. So, it's not really of good value for us."
"While the solution is very supportive of Db2, it is not so friendly when it comes to IMS databases."
"Patching. It's extremely difficult to determine what requires patching and the process to patch each component is slightly different."
"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."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager's scalability is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The tool is expensive."
"I would say mostly backup and recovery, through the Enterprise Manager. Or any corruptions, to be able to fix them through Enterprise Manager."
"RMAN tools need improvement."
"We could use it but definitely with some effort we can streamline much better and sometimes some box here and there, like 13C you have to really wait, but there are great features. Just have to make sure it is a stable product."
"Technical support could be more responsive."
