Oracle Database Reviews

We are primarily using the solution for Oracle RAC - Real Application Clusters.

The solution is very stable with the performance being very reliable. 

We've found that it is very easy to scale the solution.

The installation is very simple and straightforward. The deployment process happens very quickly.

Technical support has always been helpful and knowledgeable. 

The security of the solution could be improved. It's an area that isn't as good as it could be.

I've been using the solution for about ten years or so. It has been approximately a decade. I've used the solution for a long time.

The solution is stable. The performance is very good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's very good.

The solution can scale quite well. A company that needs to expand it, it can do so with relative ease. We haven't found any issues or shortcomings in that respect.

We have about 50 or so people in our organization that are using it at this time.

Although it hasn't been fully decided, we may increase usage in the future.

We have dealt with technical support in the past. They have been helpful and responsive. We're quite satisfied with the level of service we receive. I have no complaints.

The initial setup is very straightforward. It's not overly complex. It's very easy. A company shouldn't have any issues with the initial setup.

The deployment is very fast. It takes about an hour or so. 

We have 10 engineers that are capable of implementing the solution.

I handled the implementation myself. I did not need the assistance of an integrator or consultant. 

We do not have to pay for a license in order to be able to use the product.

We are a customer and an end-user. We don't have a professional business relationship with Oracle. 

I would rate this solution, on a scale from one to ten, at a ten. We are extremely satisfied with its capabilities. 

I would recommend the solution to other organizations and users. 

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.

The most valuable feature is the scalability of the database.

I see an increase in efficiency and reduction of man hours. There is faster response time on the queries and better performance on them.

I would like to see improvements with caching. I know there are some technologies within Oracle which could deliver more in-memory caching.

We looked into Microsoft SQL. We didn't like it nor see it as an enterprise-level solution. Oracle has more features in terms of administration.

I would recommend this solution based on the track record, performance, and the support. It's really easy to figure out. I wouldn't think anybody needs any training on it. The basic knowledge of any database should be sufficient.

Usability is the biggest value of Oracle Database.

Compared to the previous version, this version has really improved in terms of the speed.

We want Oracle to specify the differences between the two versions, the former version and the newer version and how it is linked. 

Not only with one version differences but older versions as well since there are people who are using much older versions. If they are able to clarify what the difference is between the latest one and those older versions, and if they are able to offer us the easier method for the migration, then we would appreciate it.

Even if we encounter any problems, then there's a strong definition of how we are able to improve the situation and resolve the situation. We are able to do the backup beforehand by referring to those defined resolutions from the Oracle, and if we are able to have the two systems, then even if one fails, we are able to use the other one, so we are able to prevent problems.

In comparison to other more simple structure databases, I consider the Oracle Database to be more scalable, as well as easiness to export from an external system.

For people who are thinking about introducing Oracle Databases - they need to have knowledge beforehand about how to operate the databases in terms of security, and how to respond to the failures.

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.

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.

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.

The performance of the solution is impeccable.

The simplicity and ease of use is fantastic. Compared to other databases, it's not a complex tool to manage.

While working with 20-30 terabytes is okay using this solution, if you have Big Data, data that's much bigger than that, you will run into issues. It's a problem I have right now. They should support much more data.

Aside from that, the solution isn't lacking any features that I can think of. It's an almost perfect solution, aside from the data issues we face.

I've been using the solution for many years. It's been a long time.

The solution is extremely stable. There are no problems with it there. There aren't bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or fail. It's completely reliable.

Scalability is a problem for us. We need something that can handle Big Data. By Big Data, I mean more than 30 terabytes of data. Anything under that, and the solution might scale okay, however, for us, scalability is a problem because of the vast amounts of data we need to work with.

Technical support is excellent. They're really great. I have no complaints in regards to the level of support they provide to us. We've been satisfied with their service.

I've looked at Axway Data, and it is a very good solution as well, however, it is a bit expensive and offers little support for very Big Data.

We work closely with many integrator companies, however, we don't have a business relationship with Oracle. I'm a technical architect, so I just make some recommendations, and that's all.

I'd recommend the solution, so long as you aren't working with very very Big Data like we are. I could also recommend Axway, which I believe is also good.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.
