SunilAgarwal - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to scale and good record to report capabilities but needs better training
It's not a very popular tool. There are very limited resources available in the market in terms of implementation. They need to offer training plans for graduates so that more resources are available in the market. The support needs to be faster. The solution needs to be lighter. It's a bit too heavy.
Ajeet-Sachan - PeerSpot reviewer
Self-maintenance features reduce downtime and improve efficiency but enterprise edition limits can be restrictive
The availability of different editions within Oracle Database Cloud Service could be improved. The model divides their standard edition versus enterprise editions into two categories and limits the standard edition on a particular configuration set. This limitation, such as the thirty-two vCPU limit, should be removed. Another area for improvement is the affordability of the enterprise version.

"I am impressed with the product's partitioning and advanced data card."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Database Cloud Service is its cloud capabilities."
"What I like best about Oracle Database Cloud Service is its nice performance. My company doesn't have any problems with the service. The technical support for it is also good. My company is satisfied with Oracle Database Cloud Service. I also like the availability of the service. It's a trustworthy service. I didn't experience any downtime from it. My company also has additional features included in the contract, such as WAP, which makes operations easier. My team can implement all the architecture with the features and services that Oracle Database Cloud Service offers. Technically, this is a very, very, good product or database, whether on-premises or on the cloud."
"It is a very stable program."
"The self-maintenance features, auto maintenance, cleanup, and backup are the most valuable aspects of Oracle Database Cloud Service."
"The product’s most valuable feature is affordable pricing compared to other providers."
"Data storage is the most valuable feature of Oracle Database Cloud Service."
"Oracle DCS's most valuable features are its high availability and scalability."
 

Cons

"There are very limited resources available in the market in terms of implementation. They need to offer training plans for graduates so that more resources are available in the market."
"The initial setup is a bit complex for the beginner, so you need a little technical experience to install it."
"We encountered connection failures for some of our sites."
"We're actually going through licensing issues and are looking to perhaps changing to another solution, something that is perhaps open-source."
"The availability of different editions within Oracle Database Cloud Service could be improved."
"Oracle Database Cloud Service could improve by adding some cross-region replication features."
"Oracle should work on the solution's compatibility issues with the operating system."
"It would be nice to have a data dictionary reporting feature in the solution."
"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."
