Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Oracle and others in PaaS Clouds."The most valuable part of the Oracle Cloud Platform is the ability to develop applications that help us migrate information from on-prem to the cloud."
"The deployment is most valuable feature."
"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."
"The initial setup was easy. It takes just a few minutes to create a virtual machine."
"The most important features are the turnkey solutions offered by Oracle. These ease the administration of Oracle Databases."
"Just having the many options and features offered by the product through the cloud is a major benefit."
"It's a cloud, so it is easy to access anywhere."
"I like the solution’s stability, performance, and fault alerts."
"PCF is open, so the applications run really smoothly and with little downtime."
"It provides a set of developer-friendly tools that simplify application deployment."
"Pivotal Cloud Foundry is very easy to use compared to other cloud technologies. It has a very good performance."
"Pivotal Cloud Foundry is very robust, especially for building Java."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ability to scale. The services that connect to the database are also very good."
"We find its stability and scalability valuable."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and the deployment is easier."
"The solution is stable and resilient. In our company, we do not even see any challenges with the solution."
"The solution should integrate better with other tools and different vendors."
"The product roadmap strategy for some of the products is not clear."
"OCI's user interface is awful and needs to be modernized."
"It isn't easy to get qualified people who know how to work on this tool. All my administrators are learning as they go. Since this is the only cloud solution provider in Saudi Arabia, and it has only been around for one year, I am sure that this will change with time."
"The portfolio should improve for the Oracle Cloud Platform. Oracle has to increase the services offered. New services should be added to be able to compete better with Amazon AWS which is the best, and the biggest service. Oracle Cloud Platform has a small portfolio, but it's a good one."
"Oracle Cloud is not a user-friendly tool. From an improvement perspective, I want Oracle Cloud to be more user-friendly."
"Lacking in additional PaaS services."
"The biggest challenge I'm having with the cloud offering is the sizing. So, pricing becomes difficult. The sizing challenge is in terms of being very clear on how your data growth or your requirements would be. It becomes a bit difficult to be able to ensure that there's enough future proofing in what you've signed. At the same time, the whole idea behind the cloud is to be able to pay for what you use. You don't want to pay for something that you're not using."
"I'd like to see a larger service offering."
"There are no synthetic application monitoring and real-time monitoring features."
"The Pivotal Cloud Foundry's initial setup has a learning curve for my team, but it was easy to use."
"Something that can be done better is canary deployment. So, right now, we're using blue-green deployment. The support for canary deployment would be nice."
"Pivotal Cloud Foundry could improve the documentation. They are good, but they could improve more. Additionally, it would be beneficial if there were more use case examples."
"The user interface should be simpler to navigate because it t can take time for users to learn it."
"It is not straightforward to setup."
"Pivotal Cloud Foundry doesn't have certain advanced features."
