Oracle Enterprise Manager and DX Unified Infrastructure Management compete in the field of enterprise infrastructure management. DX Unified Infrastructure Management takes the upper hand with higher praise for its comprehensive features and broad range of integrations, despite Oracle Enterprise Manager's strengths in certain areas.
Features: Oracle Enterprise Manager provides extensive performance monitoring, robust automation capabilities, and detailed analytics. DX Unified Infrastructure Management offers versatile monitoring tools, seamless integration with third-party applications, and a broad range of alerting functionalities.
Room for Improvement: Oracle Enterprise Manager needs better scalability, more intuitive reporting tools, and a simplified user interface. DX Unified Infrastructure Management should improve the complexity of setup, enhance its alerting mechanisms, and reduce the steep learning curve for new users.

Key Oracle Enterprise Manager Features and Products
Reviews from Real Users
Oracle Enterprise Manager stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Several major ones are its central management and monitoring and its reporting capabilities
Robin C., head of Oracle Exadata Centre of Excellence at Tata Consultancy Services, writes, "The database performance monitoring features are very useful and allow us to quickly zero in on DB-related issues. Exadata storage server and Infiniband switches can be viewed from the GUI in OEM which cannot be done in other tools. The ability to deploy metric extensions makes this tool extensible for our custom monitoring also."
PeerSpot users note the effectiveness of these features. A database manager at a tech services company notes, “The solution's most valuable aspect is the fact that it is embedded with the Oracle database and Oracle's engineering system, its extra data, and analytics. They have plug-ins that are very helpful. Due to the infrastructure's size, the introduction they offer is very, very useful. It helps with an overall understanding of the product. They have a very nice graphical user interface. The monitoring is good. We can capture the SQL tune from us. With Oracle Enterprise Managers, we can see the rich performance tuning.”
