We performed a comparison between Linode and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Oracle and others in Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS)."When it comes to the Linode Kubernetes Engine and the amount of automation it provides, it's awesome, it's a game-changer. If a process randomly dies, it could take me a while to notice that it has died, if I haven't set up monitoring. With Kubernetes, it will just restart itself using Heartbeats."
"The solution integrates easily."
"Because of the way that their pricing model is set up, I can scale up or down the size of a customer's server very easily. It makes life very easy for me when they run out of space, need more speed or RAM, etc. I can very easily pay the difference and reboot the machine, and now I have the upgrade that I wanted. That just makes it extremely simple."
"Linode has many other cloud servers across the globe."
"For small businesses and people who have some technical skills and are good with Linux command line, this solution is great. I love Linode because it is very fast. Whereas, the same configuration on Azure and AWS will be so slow. The best thing is that their pricing and speed are great."
"The ability to fire up a virtual machine, use it, and then kill it, is quite a valuable feature for me."
"It has helped to minimize the risk and scale services at large in virtually no time."
"The cloud management panel is nice."
"We are not using any features offered by OCI but only using virtual machines. So our data only syncs from our On-premises to cloud. The compute and performance are better than other cloud solutions."
"We have seen a return on investment."
"We use Oracle Cloud to host the OIC (Oracle Integration Cloud Service) and APEX."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Cloud is the digital assistant."
"Oracle Cloud Platform has good scalability."
"I head the sales and marketing team. So, specifically on the feature set side, multi-tenancy is the one that I'm most familiar with. It's also the one that we found to be the most beneficial to us because it allows us to take clients that have multiple sites. For instance, one of our larger clients, which is a bank based out of South Africa, has offices in multiple countries. It allows us to multi-tenant each and create a tenant for each country within multi-tenanted architecture."
"Oracle does well when it comes to data privacy and security, which are critical."
"The security on the solution is very good."
"There is room for improvement regarding customer support."
"Before they changed the dashboard, I found some of the more granular options easier to find."
"The only improvement in this aspect of the service which I can think of is perhaps a pool of developers who could be hired for those cases where the need goes beyond the support offered."
"Right now, they don't have multiple data centers. They have limited data centers. I am currently using the Singapore and Mumbai data centers, but I am looking for data centers in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. They need to improve the availability of their data centers and partnership engagements with cloud Panda solution providers, like us."
"Our primary concern is always the latency."
"When it comes to marketing and exposure, Linode needs improvement because I just randomly found them by looking for Linux solutions."
"It would be nice if they had more data centers in Latin America."
"Its cost can be improved."
"The tool should provide more options like other cloud services. Also, it should improve scalability with the free version."
"Oracle Cloud's price is very high."
"Technical support does not offer the best service and should be improved."
"Specific to the Oracle Cloud; while they have been able to showcase inbuilt features for Oracle applications, what doesn't really come across clearly is what happens when you want to host, work with, or integrate with applications outside of the Oracle stack."
"Areas that need improvement are the pricing and the support."
"The solution needs to improve the discovery and assessment of the existing infrastructure."
"Oracle Cloud could be improved with better third-party integrations."
"Customer service could be improved."
