Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The database becomes pluggable. Inside this container is called a pluggable database and each application contains this pluggable database inside Multitenant. We can then share resources like control files, memory, etc. This lets you stop and start each application without impacting the others. This resource sharing is the most valuable feature""Maintaining databases is a valuable feature for us.""The feature that I like on Multitenant is the ease - it is very easy for my team to run the database.""The most valuable features are the speed and ease of use.""It's easy to use and works great.""Multitenant has a container database with many pluggable databases.""The best thing about Oracle Multitenant is its ability to consolidate multiple databases into one engine.""You can scale the solution as needed."

Cons
"It would be beneficial to include this solution with Oracle Enterprise, but Oracle charges additional fees for it.""The solution lacks a GUI for commands.""The user interface for this solution can be made better.""This solution is a bit complicated when collecting from containers - that feature should be a bit better.""Technical support could be faster.""That said, Oracle in general doesn't invest in their UI for any of their applications. If we're talking about the dashboard or other user experience, there is room for improvement. I'm talking about on premises. The cloud version has started to improve.""While the product is overall excellent, it is quite expensive.""It can be complicated to scale up the solution, but it's scalable."

"It is not as secure as it could be.""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.""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.""SAP SQL Anywhere needs to incorporate functionalities like SAP S/4HANA."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This solution is a little bit pricey."
  • "For me, I will go with it if I have the budget. Some features are nicer than before, but at the end of the day, you always have a limited budget. I prefer to upgrade and get a specific hardware when possible. At the end, you will have to make a compromise. You will not get everything you would have liked to have."
