Find out what your peers are saying about Oracle, Quest Software, SolarWinds and others in Database Development and Management."The most valuable feature is its robust infrastructure management tools."
"One feature that is very good is the backup and validation process that's built into Era."
"It has wizards that are very helpful in the installation, and it handles automation as well as virtualization once deployed."
"We have an enterprise-level backup product that we're required to use, so we don't rely on Era's version. [But] it could be an awesome first-line backup. It's very elegant the way they designed it. It's quick and it doesn't take up nearly as much storage space as traditional backups. It would definitely help to save on tier-one storage."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Database Service is the ability to manage multiple vendors."
"What I like about this solution is that it's more reliable compared to other solutions."
"It saves operation time and day-to-day tasks."
"It has some very good features. It really works with multiple silos in terms of infrastructure, database updates, and migration. So many things are easy with Era."
"The solution improved our site reliability."
"The graphical user interfaces could be much more user-friendly. They are already user-friendly, but they could be simpler so that we do not need L3 staff to handle them. If they were simpler, we could also have some command center or L1/L1.5 associates do some housekeeping activities on it."
"The solution needs to improve compatibility with other back-ups and products."
"The patching should be a one-button function. Also, it works about 80 percent of the time, but 20 percent of the time it requires manual intervention. And sometimes, until you understand the technical underpinnings of that process, you can't fix it. I thought we would move past that. In the last version, they broke a big chunk of that for me, and that's why I'm waiting for the new release because they promised me it would fix the problem."
"I would like to see the SQL compatibility enhanced."
"The solution could improve by providing more support for more vendors."
"This solution could be improved by integrating with more database providers."
"It would be helpful if we could patch Windows operating systems with the solution."
"The solution should provide more integration with more databases."
"The initial deployment was a little difficult."
