Vice President of Sales and Operations at Aquila Clouds

Suitable for OCI environment but needs to improve pricing

We haven’t had any problems with the setup of Oracle. The deployment will take less than seven to ten days since it can give good reports. For deployment, we first need to understand the customer requirements and build the architecture around the deployment. We have the customer sign off on it and then go into the software deployment side. This is the proper life cycle of how to do it in the enterprise space. There are a lot of thoughts around the initial way or how we need to structure and architect the environment. For enterprises, it is a complex process. It will take one to two months to have all the sign-offs before we can go into implementation. It is followed across all the installations. I rate the initial setup of the solution a ten out of ten.

An easy-to-install tool with good technical support that offers features like map searching and risk management services

The initial setup of Oracle Developer Cloud Service was really easy since it can be done with the request in the cloud, and after that, you can use it directly. I read the initial setup a ten, on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy. The solution is deployed on a public cloud. The deployment process took around a year.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, I would say that Oracle Cloud provides support with zero down time and the high probability is very good."

"We use Oracle Cloud to host the OIC (Oracle Integration Cloud Service) and APEX."

"The performance and processing capability are excellent."

"The most valuable feature is the reporting service."

"I am impressed with the tool's upscaling and resiliency features."

"The most important features are the turnkey solutions offered by Oracle. These ease the administration of Oracle Databases."

"Our recommendations are good, and we also have a bidding platform that is helpful for managed service providers. This platform can save customers up to 2-3 weeks in billing time, from 25 days to 3-4 days. We have two products: a basic product and a cloud optimization product. Both products help customers improve the performance and cost-efficiency of their cloud environments."

"Overall, there are some very good features on Oracle and it offers good customization capabilities."

More Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) pros

"The solution's technical support is really good."

"The APEX solution is the most interesting part of the Oracle Developer Service. APEX is the most cost-effective and most popular service for developers. Kubernetes and Docker services are also important and very much cost-effective, and helpful for developers. If we compare Oracle to other cloud services providers, they'll also be cost-effective. The financial involvement is also a good point because other cloud services charge for Docker and Kubernetes solutions. Oracle's offering is almost free. They only charge for the VM or virtual machine. This is also an interesting part for the developers as well."

"With the multi-tenant architecture, you can migrate many databases to one instance. This saves a lot of money and administrative work."

Cons

"In a future release, they could improve by adding some form of machine learning and artificial intelligence."

"OCI's user interface is awful and needs to be modernized."

"The solution needs to improve the discovery and assessment of the existing infrastructure."

"The solution should integrate better with other tools and different vendors."

"It does require some training in order to be able to use it effectively."

"The functionalities could be simplified as it is a bit difficult to learn."

"The pricing model of Oracle Cloud Platform is an area of concern. Oracle Cloud Platform should be made available at a cheap price."

"One improvement that would be helpful is the addition of a replication option on their Standard Edition OD service. Currently, this option is not available, which leads many customers to move to the Enterprise edition. However, other cloud service providers, such as Amazon AWS offer replication options at a similar tier. It would be beneficial if Oracle also explored providing this option for their Standard Edition service."

More Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) cons

"Improvements are needed in terms of the usage of the map chart and risk management services."

"t would be better if the open-source databases were managed. Some managed services for open-source databases are available in other cloud solutions, but Oracle doesn't have any. They should provision more managed services for open-source databases like MongoDB and PostgreSQL. These types of managed database services should be available in Oracle Cloud Service and others. There are other technical issues like the CDN network that is not directly configured to Oracle and needs support from a third party. There are also some services available in AWS and Azure that should be included in Oracle Cloud Service."

"Sometimes, I lose the cursor in the editor, and it disappears for no reason. It's hard to guess where I'm in the text, and I feel a bit lost."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The costs involved are low when it comes to Oracle Cloud, especially when compared to AWS."

"The solution is expensive. I would rate the pricing as ten out of ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."

"The solution is free to use."

"The product’s pricing is reasonable compared to other tools 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."

"The pricing is a little bit expensive compared to other products."

"Oracle Cloud Platform has a decent pricing model."

"There is a subscription cost rather than licensing for this product."

More Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) pricing and cost advice

"Oracle Developer Cloud Service isn't an expensive product. It's definitely cheaper than any other enterprise cloud solution."

"I rate the pricing two on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
