Oracle Database Reviews

I was using this solution for integration.

It should have a good UI. The user interface could be better.

The installation could be improved when using different operations systems, as some take longer than others.

I have been working with Oracle Database for three months.

We are using version 11g.

Oracle Database is a stable solution.

I am the only person in my organization who is using this solution.

I have not contacted technical support. I have not had any issues.

It is easy to install using the Windows OS, but when using Linux, it takes too much time.

I was able to complete the installation myself. I did not need a team to deploy it.

I am using the trial version.

I would recommend this solution to others. It's a good database.

I would rate Oracle Database an eight out of ten.

• Reliability of the database
• High availability

It is good as it is. I've seen the product evolve over a period of time so it is great as it stands right now.

There's always hope for improvement because it's getting bulkier and bulkier. I wish that it would get a little smaller, smaller inside the footprint.

The only other thing I can think of is, perhaps, a voice control command.

It's always been stable and we believe it will continue to be stable.

In my organization we don't have the need for scalability as much because we are a fixed size. We grow very organically so scalability is not an issue for us.

Absolutely, support is huge for us, to be able to get the best quality support. They are pretty reliable. We have good Oracle support, direct Oracle support. OTN (Oracle Technology Network) we use them a lot, so Oracle support and the online, those two.

In terms of getting to the right person, sometimes it's a hit or a miss but mostly, eventually, it works out.

No, this was the first solution that was implemented. It has stood the test of time, always a good thing.

It's straightforward.

When it comes to choosing to work with a vendor we look for the value proposition. Price to performance, the ratio, that is the biggest thing to look at.

Oracle Database is value for money.

Choose the vendor, horses for the courses. Choose the right vendor and just move forward.

In the past when we wanted to merge data, we needed to consider the series of the data, but with Oracle Database there is no need to index the data. That's the important feature.

It's been only two years since we introduced the database, so we are unable to identify a clear benefit yet.

Compared to its reputation, it's worse than expected. The system went down two times. It said that when there's a shutdown it's only for one system, and not both systems at the same time, but it actually did occurred.

Maybe it is specific to the way we use the databases, but we introduced Database to different operations in the organization. We didn't actually introduce Database to be shared among all the different departments.

We had improved the version of the operating system. We did a patching of the Database. They helped resolve the problem because we didn't experience similar issues again. We can say that they helped us.

We used to only use IBM Databases, and it really restricted our options. We wanted to broaden our options by introducing another Oracle system.

We contracted with Oracle without the maintenance agreement. We had actually built the organization that way since it was easier for us to develop. We really did not try to fit with the system. We tried to fit with the operations, so it was rather difficult for us to manage. We ended up having less memory.

We really didn't consider any other options because we need to have a major name as a provider. We need to exchange the maintenance agreement through the third party vendors. If it's a small name vendor, and we have difficulty receiving the maintenance support, then we need to provide maintenance on our own. We would like to prevent that situation from happening.

I use this solution for transaction processing and analytical queries from the data gathered from other systems.

The most valuable features are the easy ways to build storage capacities and queries. It's a really large and very useful language to process data.

An area for improvement would be query performance - in some cases, it's really, really hard to make it run faster. In the next release, I would like to see some analytical queries and machine-learning integrations built directly into the database.

I've been using this solution for about ten years.

This is a very stable and robust database.

Scalability is a weak point of Oracle databases because even if we use Real Application Clusters, they do not work as if they were a cluster. They work like units, and they divide the connection but don't process the data in all the clusters.

Now, the setup is straightforward, but in the beginning, it was very painful because it needs a lot of operating system configurations to work properly. The last time I deployed Oracle Database, it took me around thirty to forty minutes.

I understand that Oracle is very expensive compared to other databases.

Oracle databases don't always comply with all necessities and use cases, so make sure to look at and understand those before choosing Oracle. I would rate this solution as five out of ten.

We've been using Oracle Database for years.

It seems to work. But it could use some improvement in terms of operational stability.

I've never had to contact Oracle support

I can only remember that setting up Oracle Database was a pain because it uses Java.

The Oracle Database license is included with our SAP subscription.

I would rate Oracle Database six out of 10. I don't like it at all. We're only using it because it's bundled with SAP. I would not recommend it to others.

We use Oracle Database for the solution we make using Oracle APEX for our clients. Oracle Database can be used in all sectors, we have many clients in the financial sector. 

The main feature of Oracle Database is its performance.

Oracle could improve by providing better integration with other solutions, such as Angular platforms. We have a lot of pressure from our customers to have this type of compatibility, we end up using other solutions that tend to mimic the functionality but it is not natural, expensive, and is difficult to maintain.

We have already seen some tools that they are working on, but they are in an experimental stage and do not look too promising. There is a need for more collaboration moving forward. In the past it was beautiful, now the world is collaborative, and it is hard to have that integration with everybody else.

I have been using Oracle Database for approximately 30 years.

The solution is reliable.

The support from Oracle is very good.

The price of the solution could be reduced.

I rate Oracle Database an eight out of ten.

It can be used for OTP, ERP systems, server systems, and data warehousing.

I like the design of the database because it works well. I also like the stability of the solution.

The licensing cost could be better.

I've been using Oracle Database for the last 16 years.

It's a cloud-based solution.

It is a stable solution.

We have a yearly license, and it could be cheaper.

I would recommend Oracle Database and rate it at eight on a scale from one to ten.

Storage of data and alerts.

In the past we used another product. Since the switch to Oracle the stability has improved.

We had some issues with the scalability but we managed to find a solution without overturning everything or having to go back to the basics.

The reason I do not give this product a 10 out of 10 is because of the technical support. This is an area where they need to improve. It takes too long. If you have an issue that is very complicated, not something that you can find a solution for on the internet, that you need an engineer to help with, it takes too long. Very often, I find the solution by myself and give up on the support.

When choosing a vendor it's important to me that it is a good brand, that they have a good name in the market, and that the solution comes closest to meeting my needs.

I would definitely recommend this solution.
