We performed a comparison between Microsoft System Center 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."Many processes could be implemented out-of-the-box, and this helped to adopt processes in areas which we lacked."
"The availability performance matrix and the reporting capabilities are the solution's most valuable features."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the ease of configuration and the easy discovery of the environment."
"I like the automated features of it that let you schedule those updates and the ability of the product to focus on the specific updates, specific platforms, and products that we're interested in keeping up to date."
"Good for managing and administering the infrastructure."
"Step-by-step documentation that clarifies the implementation procedure."
"The detail in the alarms is great."
"System Center helps to create the basis for ITIL alignment."
"The product is reliable."
"Robust solution; console and enterprise management tools are really easy to work."
"The program is scalable."
"The transaction handling of WebLogic and the way it is designed is excellent."
"WebLogic Suite is scalable."
"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."
"Scalability on the solution is great. It's very very easy to scale."
"The platform performance and responsiveness need improvement. It still demands high computing resources."
"Most of the documentation is online, however, there are some gaps there. The product documentation still refers back to the 2012 Server. We're pretty much in 2022. There's a ten-year gap there."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"System Center hasn't updated to keep up with the industry. It needs improvements in the user interface, ease of use, and overall product functionality, particularly the cloud-monitoring features. It needs more capabilities to monitor AWS and Azure infrastructure."
"The solution's dashboard needs improvement."
"Implementation and integration in the case of multi-tenant environments needs improvement."
"Could be more user friendly."
"Less server consumption would help, as would better, more flexible reports."
"The restart capability needs to be improved because it takes us 15 minutes to restart any application."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of a ripple start function for clusters."
"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."
"Sometimes there are issues when we work on a VM because people use it to put all of their reports on it at the same time. Then I have to restart and rebuild the machine."
"I think the support could be much better."
"This solution doesn't have connectors to other external applications."
"I would like to see the licensing policy simplified."
