Husni Milhem

Projects & SCM Track Leader at El-Seif Engineering Contracting Company

Maintains top database performance and includes a very good ATB feature

Technical support is helpful. They have a good support bot for handling items so most case response times are fast. Support is aware and responsive but it takes time for them to resolve issues. Our whole enterprise is in the cloud and uses this application. It is a high priority to close any issues. We need an immediate response with resolution within two to three days. Support sends a lot of templates to fill in based on the priority or escalation. Completing templates takes time, particularly with the bot. The support process definitely needs improvement so technical support is rated a seven out of ten.

Easy to use, protects applications, and the support team is responsive

The tool is deployed on the cloud. We do maintenance when certificates need updating, but we don't do the maintenance of the servers. We have about 20 engineers and administrators in our technical team. The deployment was very simple. We got a guide from Apache. Everything was explained very clearly. The deployment took a couple of days.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Oracle Fusion is stable."

"The solution is very easy to install."

"Data integrity."

"The most valuable feature is the structure of the product. We use Oracle Fusion Middleware to manage the Oracle database. Registered users can go to each product if sign-on credentials match each user's identical framework."

"The solution is extendable so you can start with two cores and add more at any time."

"It is really good in terms of features, and it is stable."

"The initial setup is easy. There are many self-tutorial videos are on the Internet, and then the Oracle documents are self-explanatory."

"Oracle Service Bus is the most valuable feature of the solution."

More Oracle Fusion Middleware pros

"Tomcat's best feature is the open source server. It's a flexible and lightweight solution."

"The solution is convenient. It is a comfortable and easy-to-use solution for my use cases."

"The product's initial setup phase was simple."

"Tomcat is a single-server solution for deploying applications that can scale effectively. It's a good choice because it simplifies deployment. Once you package your application, deployment is straightforward and efficient."

"The solution has very robust functionality."

"The most valuable features of this solution are the general web server features."

"Tomcat is reliable and secure, which makes it valuable for our application deployment."

"The product is easy to use."

More Tomcat pros

Cons

"The solution's technical support needs to be improved."

"Its price can be improved. We are currently looking for more cost-efficiency. It should also have a little bit more flexibility for customizations. The customizations should be quicker."

"I would rate the stability a nine out of ten because we did have multiple breakdowns and crashes."

"For improvements, I think Oracle Fusion Middleware could be better at connecting to third-party applications. While it works well with Oracle products, it's more limited to non-Oracle systems than other middleware solutions like MuleSoft."

"Oracle Fusion Middleware could improve by offering enhanced and customizable business-related features, particularly in supporting individual businesses or custom applications."

"One thing that I would like to see is if this product can be containerized. We are moving away from virtual servers and moving more towards containerization to be able to quickly set up environments or have the flexibility of scaling them. It would be good if it can be containerized, and it works well in containerized platforms."

"The documentation might not be good enough for new users."

"The main improvement must be made on the user interface. You need to use another Oracle cross in this product. It must be improved and some features of the connectors must be changed."

More Oracle Fusion Middleware cons

"The disability and memory management is a problem with the solution and has room for improvement."

"In the solution, we are using the terminal to enter command line codes for operations and management, this is difficult for me. It would be better if we had some administrator UI tools for this."

"The product's pricing needs improvement."

"The interface is not user-friendly."

"Technical support is limited."

"Tomcat could be a little bit more innovative. Tomcat could come up with a framework that's more lightweight and purely targeted at Java applications."

"Our biggest challenge is that the Tomcat servers are not hosted locally."

"It will be useful if a direct report concerning a particular server configuration or application usage is readily available in the dashboard."

More Tomcat cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is expensive. We are looking for a cheaper solution."

"The solution is expensive so pricing is rated a six out of ten."

"The tool is best suited for large companies due to high licensing costs."

"The pricing is moderate. It's fine."

"We pay annually for the solution."

"My advice is to buy the basic modules first, gain the most benefit from them, then buy the advanced modules."

"The solution is quite expensive so is only used by larger organizations."

"The licensing costs are reasonable."

"Tomcat is open-source and free to use."

"The price of the solution is good."

"We are currently using the open-source version."

"Tomcat's pricing is very cheap."

"This is an open-source product and it's free to use."

"I rate the product's price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is a high price, and ten is a low price."

"Tomcat is an open source solution."

"If it is a community version of the solution, no payment is required. However, if it is a Linux version, we must buy the solution from JBoss."
