We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We use the solution for EC2. It helps me to create around six servers for free to test out things. It also provides me with an authenticated cloud nameserver. We also use it as a wireguard endpoint.""The deployment is most valuable feature.""This is a highly available and scalable solution that can host both modern and legacy on-premises applications.""The solution is pretty straightforward to setup and use.""The initial setup was easy. It takes just a few minutes to create a virtual machine.""The most valuable feature is the reporting service.""The product enables users to create their own reports.""Oracle Cloud has wonderful features and offerings as a service. It's not just a pure-play cloud product or SaaS application. It has a complete suite from infrastructure to platform as a service to software as a service, and this is what I find most valuable in Oracle Cloud. For infrastructure on the cloud or infrastructure as a service on the cloud, there's OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure). Oracle Cloud is easily available. You just click it. I also found the feature of creating a landing zone valuable. Oracle Cloud is also very flexible as it lets you have a hybrid cloud model along with other cloud solutions. I also like that it offers good management on the cloud. Oracle Cloud is ready to use as a service, and that's wonderful because the time to market is very quick. I also like that Oracle Cloud offers high performance and high availability. A lot of people claim that there's high availability in their companies' cloud operations, but technically speaking, pure high availability in today's context is found in Oracle Cloud."

"There are a lot of services available in VMware Tanzu Application Service, such as databases and application servers. You have everything you need in one application and you do not need to search outside of the solution.""The most valuable feature of the solution is the ability to check the flow of all the different variants within our applications.""The solution is integrated very well with a lot of other systems. Also, its GUI is very good.""Tanzu is easy to upgrade and scale, whether we're talking about horizontal or vertical scaling. It is as smooth as possible without any downtime. The platform maintenance, upgrading, and operations part is very smooth."

Cons
"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.""Areas that need improvement are the pricing and the support.""Sometimes when we install something, we need to partition and maybe rebuild the index. This can cause some issues for performance. In the future, I would like to see more stability and fewer bugs.""The price of the subscription is too high and excludes some potential customers.""It should have other workloads from other suppliers running on the solution.""I think that there could be a more user-friendly environment when it comes to the options that Oracle presents through the Oracle Cloud Platform.""In a future release, they could improve by adding some form of machine learning and artificial intelligence.""The customization and the requests put through were not flexible enough."

More Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Cons →

"The solution is currently focused on VMware infrastructure and I would like to see more options made available.""The solution's initial setup process was complex...The solution could benefit from improved customization and visibility for its users.""The implementation is not easy, it is very complex and can take a day or two to complete.""Tanzu could provide more granular control over whatever networking is being done on the containers. I would also like to see a slightly more detailed view of application-level tracing. I'm referring to the connections between different microservices. If they added a service-matching feature, that would be helpful for the customers to build or be more effective."

  • "Costing depends on if you have an existing license for the application and for the operating system."
  • "The cost may be a bit high for many potential users."
  • "The pricing is a little bit expensive compared to other products."
