OCI offers competitive pricing options, making it attractive for various use cases. However, for our infrastructure needs, we opted for a hybrid approach. We preferred to maintain certain components on-premises while integrating others with OCI. This flexibility allows us to leverage the benefits of both environments effectively. Pricing options vary depending on licensing arrangements and the specific services used. For instance, if you already possess database licenses, you can use them on OCI. Additionally, you pay for the resources or services consumed, which may include machine instances or other relevant services.
I compared Oracle Cloud Platform with other competitor providers like Azure, and I don't think Oracle is too expensive. Oracle is doing its best to stay below the market price. For example, the price for the compute instances, among other things, is better than its competition. Compared with what we paid when we were on the startup program, the solution's pricing is really high for a small startup company like us.

OCP is good, not too expensive. Based on the need you can say that there are other good options for people who can go with less time and other approaches to the services.
Both pricing and licensing are affordable with the Oracle Cloud Platform.

Its pricing is complex, but as partners, we can get away with quite a bit of discounting because we deal with them directly.
I would rate their pricing probably a one or two out of five because they're quite expensive. Microsoft Azure will probably be the cheapest because depending on the Microsoft product that you have, they have some sort of bundling. There are things that they give you to get you onto Azure. AWS is probably somewhere in the middle.

The price for Oracle Cloud may seem expensive, but if you start comparing features and what Oracle offers, you'll realize that the pricing for Oracle Cloud is competitive.
If you consider every aspect of Oracle Cloud, you'll see that its price tag is reasonable because it has a good user interface, user experience, and management. Oracle Cloud is a sophisticated infrastructure and the level of management it allows you to enjoy isn't available in other solutions, so I wouldn't worry about needing to invest huge money into it because it's a wonderful product to use.

The cost is based on multiple factors including which cloud service we are using, the size of data, performance, security, support contracts, and machine licensing.
Oracle has flexible licensing models. Oracle offers universal credit and pay-as-you-go options. We can also bring our own license.
View full review »The pricing for Oracle Cloud services is reasonable. Additionally, compared to other service providers, Oracle has a substantial presence and established infrastructure in Bangladesh. Considering all these factors together makes Oracle Cloud an ideal choice and a strong contender in the market.

It's less expensive to operate your environment in the cloud than in-house. It's a bundle cost. Everything is included in one price.

Oracle Cloud Platform is a bit costly. You can always bring your own license or subscribe to the SaaS option, but the SaaS option is very costly.
I rate the pricing a six out of ten.
The license is a bit expensive for academic work.
My company has not yet purchased the solution. It would require a bit of funding for them to purchase the solution in the future.

I don't have that much information about pricing because I'm not at that level to know. It's not that expensive. I think it's maybe half or one-fourth of our actual on-prem cost, especially in Oracle Data Integrator. It's pretty cheap. Maybe around $30,000 or $40,000 per month.
The price of the solution should be reduced to a price that people can afford.

The model is basically if you aren't using the solution you won't have to pay. We can turn off the machines if we don't need them and we won't keep incurring bills.

The best aspect of the Oracle Cloud Platform is the relation between the performance and the price. When you compare the price with Amazon AWS, Microsft Azure, or any other, the price for performance is the best.
There are plenty of license options. For example, you can license the solution by the user, CPU, fixed period, and on-demand. The options are similar to Amazon AWS.
