Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Opsview is the ability to clone the services when you're monitoring something out of the test setup."
"It's a good solution. It covers all aspects of monitoring purposes."
"I am satisfied with the overall product since it works well…It is a stable solution."
"We use this solution for internal monitoring our own cloud platform because we are a public cloud provider. We also use it for monitoring purposes on behalf of our clients."
"What was very compelling about OpsView was that we could dial out the noise and have meaningful and actionable alerts."
"I mostly use the top events, and look at how the execution is happening on the database; and monitoring the cluster level rates. I even look at the execution plan."
"The most valuable features are security and speed."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring because it's very useful for checking and troubleshooting compared with other products, like Nagios for example, that have some interaction with Oracle."
"It is a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for managing database consolidation, something that has been missing and difficult to do."
"It's easy to implement as it's made by Oracle for Oracle."
"The single-pane and single interface in the centralized system is the most valuable feature."
"There are a number of different user interfaces you can choose from."
"I like that it's stable."
 

Cons

"Some of the graphics on Opsview could be improved."
"Maybe the graphical representation can be improved. It can be enhanced for better visualization. It could be a little better. And the graph center can be improved."
"In a future release, we would like to have Observ for AI. Any AI and intelligence it can add to the monitoring is obviously beneficial. We would also like to have automated callouts."
"Customized reporting can be improved."
"Pricing and a few certain aspects in the solution needs to be improved."
"The solution has a very large resource system. It's too big. There are too many items."
"In my experience, the monitoring could be improved."
"The product must improve its support team."
"We would like to have a single dashboard for monitoring and controlling all of our products."
"There are limited numbers of other OEM devices that can be integrated into enterprise management that can be scaled by Oracle by adding other OEM devices to enterprise management."
"The tool's pricing is costly."
"We have encountered performance issues when the load is huge."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager could improve the monitoring types and the graphics."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is priced similarly to other tools offering similar features."
"I would rate pricing a seven out of ten, where ten is the highest price."
"The solution is not cheap. I think that the pricing is a little bit on the high side."
"The pricing is very high."
"The product is very expensive."
"Based upon 3 days of implementation by a single person, plus licensing costs would be approximately $60,000, including the virtualized hosts."
"The license is good but can be improved."
"There are a few bugs with the software which require opening SRs with Oracle Support which contribute to the day-to-day cost. Perhaps 8 hours per month is spent dealing with support, just as a rough guess."
"We are satisfied with the pricing."
"The basic functions are free. You only pay license fees for advanced features."
"Evaluate your requirements carefully. Elaborate DR and HA setup of OEM can become expensive."
