Cons
"The initial setup is a bit complex for the beginner, so you need a little technical experience to install it.""Oracle Database Cloud Service could improve by adding some cross-region replication features.""We encountered connection failures for some of our sites.""Oracle Database Cloud Service is a good engine and at the moment, there isn't any new feature I can think of that I'd like added to the service. The only problem I see in Oracle Database Cloud Service is it's more commercial, so it has a relation to how it deals with customers. I don't feel secure in a deal with Oracle because that team changes the conditions each year, and there's no representative from the team that talks to my company about new needs. Oracle needs to improve its relationship with customers and partners in general.""It would be nice to have a data dictionary reporting feature in the solution.""Oracle should work on the solution's compatibility issues with the operating system.""The pricing must be improved.""We're actually going through licensing issues and are looking to perhaps changing to another solution, something that is perhaps open-source."

"We have had some stability issues with SAP SQL Anywhere, but I am not sure if it is an application or network issue. We sometimes have a large amount of data being queried and it cannot handle it.""SAP SQL Anywhere needs to incorporate functionalities like SAP S/4HANA.""The interface is not easy in comparison to the SQL Server. It could be more user-friendly.""A problem we are experiencing now is when doing a backup in SQL 2012 and 14.""It is not as secure as it could be."
