Ability to interact with teachers in real-time and manage lessons after class
The deployment process is very fast. We have prepared the product to be easily installed, and we have had successful cases where it could be implemented in less than a few weeks. Moreover, Around three or four people in a call center are involved in maintaining the solution. We have a project manager, a service manager, and at least two or three system analysts who handle the maintenance. If there are any issues, we can open a support ticket for them to address.

Simplifies database management tasks and provides high availability and disaster recovery
Oracle Database Appliance has simplified our database management tasks. Our clients are using the solution for high availability and disaster recovery. Our overall experience with the solution was good, especially the DR. Oracle Database Appliance's integrated storage solutions have enhanced our data management. Oracle Database Appliance's integration with other solutions was straightforward. We faced compatibility issues while moving from another device to this one, and the integration was not seamless. I would recommend the solution to other users. Overall, I rate the solution an 8 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The tool's most valuable features for us are its combination of formatting, ETL, analytics, and storage capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to interact with teachers in real-time and manage lessons after class."
"The solution is stable. The product is scalable. The technical support is very helpful. The initial setup is straightforward. I consider the product a strong solution for our customers."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of dashboarding and ease of reporting."
"The Oracle database is able to get the data, process it, and return it to the company's CEO's and CFO's within a single day, and thus they are able to find out yesterday's P and L by today. It has drastically reduced the amount and time of processing from seven days to one day."
"The main feature is the management and manageability of the tool. We can create a VM on a laptop within a couple of clicks."
"If the database goes down on one of the servers, the load is automatically shifted to another server. You can troubleshoot the one that is down without affecting uptime."
"The solution's function we use to benefit the customers is database verification."
"Oracle is a stable database."
"I give it a nine out of 10 because it gives the customer easy access to a complete database solution within 30 minutes."
 

Cons

"Maybe the chat conversation feature could be improved."
"The solution is expensive. For future releases, it would be beneficial if Kovair Data Lake could enhance its ETL and data capabilities."
"Oracle's product support is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"In terms of what can be be improved, I'd say Artificial Intelligence, AI. It would be really helpful if AI was incorporated within the solution."
"The tool's setup can be easier."
"The setup is a bit complex."
"If we were able to use Oracle Database to create mobile apps, that would be great. I don't know multiple languages, like Java, etc. I need to learn a separate language, right now in order to do this."
"In my opinion only one single command should be used for all ODA models, as it’s confusing."
"The product's pricing is too high. We plan to migrate to another database in three to four years."
"Sometimes, we cannot upgrade or patch it easily. The performance needs to improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"I would rate the pricing a four on a scale of one (high price) to ten (low cost)."
"Leverage the Pay-As-You-Grow licensing, and consider using the ODA X6-2 S/M/L models also for SE2/SE."
"In regards to licensing, it is cheaper to maintain for Oracle applications, and it's an all-in-one solution."
"Oracle’s pricing is ridiculously high."
"The product is costly."
"The price should be lower."
"You must pay for the license."
"Oracle Database Application's support and maintenance are included in the contract."
