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.

Pretty user-friendly, efficient user management and continuously updated with new versions
It's pretty user-friendly. It's operator-based, and there's no complication in setting it up. Things like downloading an image, pulling an image, tagging, and pushing it back to the needed organization are fairly easy compared to doing things through the command-line interface. Red Hat is constantly improving its product. Every new version rollout comes with updates that enhance performance. One example is that we used to experience issues when clicking on a repository if we had thousands of them in the registry. In the latest versions, those things have been taken care of.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product helps us to use it as a central ERP and HCM."
"We appreciate the fact that this solution will operate with both native and third-party applications. This has meant that we don't need to change all of our systems to accommodate it within our network."
"Overall, there are some very good features on Oracle and it offers good customization capabilities."
"Frankly speaking, I've been very impressed with the stability the solution offers. Everything is working very well at the moment, and we haven't had any issues or faced any bugs or glitches."
"Oracle Cloud has wonderful features and offerings as a service. It's not just a pure-play cloud product or SaaS application. It has a complete suite from infrastructure to platform as a service to software as a service, and this is what I find most valuable in Oracle Cloud. For infrastructure on the cloud or infrastructure as a service on the cloud, there's OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure). Oracle Cloud is easily available. You just click it. I also found the feature of creating a landing zone valuable. Oracle Cloud is also very flexible as it lets you have a hybrid cloud model along with other cloud solutions. I also like that it offers good management on the cloud. Oracle Cloud is ready to use as a service, and that's wonderful because the time to market is very quick. I also like that Oracle Cloud offers high performance and high availability. A lot of people claim that there's high availability in their companies' cloud operations, but technically speaking, pure high availability in today's context is found in Oracle Cloud."
"Oracle offers more of the basic functionality needs."
"It has improved my company by cutting my time to market."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Cloud is the digital assistant."
"Things like downloading an image, pulling an image, tagging, and pushing it back to the needed organization are fairly easy compared to doing things through the command-line interface."
"It's easy to use, and it does what it is meant for."
 

Cons

"Some of the features of this solution, such as the digital assistant, require extensive configuration before they are suitable for use. We would like these to be made more straightforward and to require less manual input."
"There's one app I have to install on my device, the Articulate Player app. It's only available on Apple and Android, but it's not available for Windows. I can't run the program on my desktop, to use it to learn Java."
"Oracle Cloud is not a user-friendly tool. From an improvement perspective, I want Oracle Cloud to be more user-friendly."
"The configuration through the cloud is complicated. It's not straightforward."
"The solution’s support could be improved."
"This service is very specific to Oracle and we cannot have other types of workloads on Oracle Cloud."
"Since our Oracle products are on premise we cannot get the premier Oracle products."
"Amazon AWS has a better solution overall."
"It could be more integrated with other platforms."
"Nothing is happening regarding AI. I don’t see the role of AI currently."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In Oracle Cloud Platform, one needs to make payments towards the subscription charges."
"Oracle Cloud Platform's pricing is comparable to other solutions, but it is definitely not cheap."
"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."
"Pricing needs to be improved."
"OCI's pricing is one of its best features."
"The license is a bit expensive for academic work."
"Improvements can be made with respect to flexibility in the licensing model."
"Its pricing is complex, but as partners, we can get away with quite a bit of discounting because we deal with them directly. I would rate their pricing probably a one or two out of five because they're quite expensive. Microsoft Azure will probably be the cheapest because depending on the Microsoft product that you have, they have some sort of bundling. There are things that they give you to get you onto Azure. AWS is probably somewhere in the middle."
