Oracle Database Reviews

We are using Oracle Database for the database use cases.

The most valuable feature of Oracle Database is its responsiveness.

The price of the solution should be lower.

I have been using Oracle Database for approximately one year.

Oracle Database is highly stable.

I rate the stability of Oracle Database a ten out of ten.

I rate the scalability of Oracle Database a ten out of ten.

I rate support of Oracle Database a ten out of ten.

Positive

The initial setup of Oracle Database is simple.

I have not seen a return on investment because of the high cost.

The price of Oracle Database is too expensive.

We might be switching solutions because the price is too high.

My advice to others is this solution is great in capabilities and functionality but it is too expensive.

I rate Oracle Database a seven out of ten.

We are using Oracle Database to store information.

What is most valuable with the Oracle Database is the performance.

Oracle Database could improve security to make the solution better in the future.

I have been using Oracle Database for approximately six months.

Oracle Database is reliable.

The scalability is very good in Oracle Database.

We have approximately 17 employees that are using this solution. In the future, we will have many more.

I was previously using Microsoft Excel.

The initial setup of the Oracle Database is user-friendly. The process did not take long to complete.

There is a license required to use Oracle Database.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Oracle Database a ten out of ten.

I have a lot of projects running on the Oracle Databases. We currently are using Oracle Database 11g, but this year we will upgrade to 19g.

I have been using Oracle Database for approximately 25 years.

The solution is scalable.

The support from Oracle is very good.

We have support from two Oracle engineers that work with our team for the use of the Oracle Database.

Oracle Databases license and maintenance prices are too high. The government ministry of finance gives us our budget and this solution is too expensive.

In the future, we will most likely be using an open-source database solution because Oracle Database is expensive.

I rate Oracle Database a nine out of ten.

We use Oracle as an in-house development database.

The interface is easy to use.

The reporting can be improved. SAP has more reporting features than Oracle.

Better integration with other databases would be an improvement.

I have been working with Oracle Database for 20 years.

Oracle is a stable product.

We cannot scale this solution. We have about 1,000 employees that use it.

I have not been in contact with technical support.

Oracle is easy to deploy.

We implemented Oracle by ourselves. Our IT division handles both implementation and maintenance. Our division has about 200 engineers.

We have decided to use SAP ERP Enterprise and we plan to integrate it with Oracle. My advice for anybody who is considering Oracle Database is that as a tool, it's very easy to implement and you can customize it based on your processes or your job.

In summary, this is a good product and it's user-friendly, but I like SAP better.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

Oracle Database is a national database system that we use in our organization.

There is a lot of functionality in Oracle Database. The reports and the GUI are good.

With the nature of my job, there are certain things that I would want to improve. I can do this by acquiring some of the other products from Oracle, which would then make work a little bit easier. For example, in terms of replication from one site to the other site, the GoldenGate solution would be something I would have to acquire. However, this is subject to the budget. If we have the money, we could acquire other solutions. At the moment, we don't have such solutions which we can acquire in the future when budgets are low.

If Oracle Database could have more build-in features from some of their other products it would be good.

I have been using Oracle Database for many years.

Oracle Database is stable, the performance has been perfect.

The scalability of the Oracle Database is very good. It is easy to scale and you can have a tremendous about of users.

Our entire workforce is using this solution. For example, there is a payroll system and everybody has to access their payroll details. This is how the entire workforce will have access.

Over time we plan to increase usage of the Oracle Database. We will want to use some kind of an ERP in the future and when we do there will be many things happening on the one system.

We have a solution from Oracle and that in itself is not a complete solution. It's just a part that we have introduced. There are other parts that we will acquire over time. For example, we will keep our journal in Oracle instead of another system. We will do procurement in Oracle eventually. The solution can expand but you have to purchase the different parts.

The support from Oracle is good. You raise your support cases over the support website and there will be support people that will work with you until you get a solution to the problem.

We previously used dBase and it had limitations. Over the years it vanished from the market.

The installation was simple.

We used vendor integrators and consultants. This type of solution's installation cannot be done alone. Our experience with the help was very good, everything was successful.

We are on an annual license for the use of this solution.

I would recommend others to work with Oracle. Oracle is a huge company that knows its product very well.

I rateOracle Database a ten out of ten.

Our users access the database via a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system. It provides the basis of all the information in the company including information about suppliers, customers, and end-users. We have about 300 users.

The backup system is good. We back up all our key marketing data. The integration is a good aspect of Oracle.

CRM could be improved. What I mean by that is the CRM is composed of NetSuite and the Oracle database to perform the functions of a CRM. Both of these need to be improved. It is not very user friendly and there is not enough customization.

I joined the company two years ago. The Oracle database is the only one we use that I know of. The database is deployed on a private cloud.

Stability is good. It is a very stable product.

Scalability is good. 

The setup is difficult.

I would rate Oracle database 7 out of 10. To get this up to 10 they would need to improve the interface.

Oracle Database is cloud ready, not only for the software standardization, but also for the scripting. You can install Oracle Database software, patching, and create/configure Oracle databases in silent using scripts. Therefore, you can easily automate everything in cloud.

Performance is the best key value. Oracle Database is suitable for OLTP applications or data warehouse. You can run Oracle Database software on-premise or in the cloud. Also, Oracle provides Exadata, the engineered system designed for Oracle Database, where you can achieve maximum performance.

Upgrade is the most critical phase for the lifecycle of a database. In order to be sure that the migration succeeds, you need to be up-to-date. Therefore, regularly install the patchset and security updates.

No. The most critical error was due to a bug on database policies, so selecting it got the wrong results.

No issues.

I would give technical support a seven out of 10 rating.

As of now, I use different database solutions depending on the use case (for example, MySQL or Microsoft SQL Server).

It is not complex, but you need to be aware of the best practices provided by Oracle. Therefore, I recommend to read the official documentation before starting a new Oracle installation. Also, be informed of the known issues using My Oracle Support.

If it is the first time implementing, contact a partner or an expert in order to install/configure your Oracle Database. This is the best way or think about Oracle PaaS in the Cloud.

Not in my scope.

• It's a leading relational database brand; that makes it valuable
• There's a good amount of knowledge on the market
• Availability of skills
• It's quite a mature product
• Very advanced now
• Market leader.

It is already a market leader. The latest comparison to products like SAP HANA, and in-memory computing, and container computing, container-based database structures; these are the areas where I think there is good competition.

I've been using it about 20, 25 years.

It's a very stable solution. You have to configure it to your requirements. It's one of the leading databases. You can have a mission-critical database system to make it available 24/7.

We have 24/7 platforms, from development databases to mission critical databases, they all run on Oracle.

Very scalable.

Good. Their normal ticketing system, their incident management system is quite responsive. All their large accounts have a technical Account Manager. You have your OCI, your Oracle Customer Identifier. Using your OCI, customers can put in their tickets, incidents.

I would recommend it
