Oracle Database Reviews

Ease of the database. 

I can't think of anything to improve the database features.

More than 12 years.

Stable, absolutely.

It's scalable, it will meet the needs of our company, moving forward.

I had some issues that were resolved by the Oracle support team. There was an issue that I reported myself and the response time was adequate, within expectations. Eighty percent positive.

I don't know. From the time I was employed here it was already installed and working and up and running.

At first, when I was in the learning stage it was a bit difficult to install with Linux or Unix in the environment. Only with Windows can you can install it using a wizard. 

You should have some knowledge, to be familiar with it, the product for installing and plan managing. It was not easy.

We were using Oracle Streams, that is deprecated right now. Before we changed it to Oracle GoldenGate we were just using Streams.

I recommend this product. It's stable, advanced, I think it's the number-one database.

We are using Oracle Database for corporation development.

Oracle Database has high-level features that are very good.

The solution could improve security.

I have been Oracle Database for approximately 12 years.

The solution is scalable.

We have approximately 200 users using this solution.

I have previously used MySQL.

We have a four-person team that does the implementation and maintenance of the solution.

The price of the solution is expensive compared to other database solutions. We are on an annual subscription.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Oracle Database a nine out of ten.

The solution is primarily used for our accounting system.

The solution is the best in the world. It's robust and accessible. 

Oracle is the best on the market. They offer an exceptional product.

Technical support has been helpful so far.

The solution could be a bit cheaper. There are less expensive options.

The installation of the product could be designed to be simpler.

I've been using the solution for about three years. It's been a while.

Technical support has been great. We've been most satisfied with eh level of support we get. Everyone is helpful and responsive. 

I also have experience with the SQL Server, which is less expensive. It's also easier to set up and deploy,

The initial setup isn't exactly straightforward. It's a bit more complex than, for example, an SQL Server, which is much more straightforward and simple to deploy.

We used a specialist when deploying the solution originally.

The solution is more expensive than the SQL server. If a company needs a less expensive option, it shouldn't necessarily choose Oracle.

I use multiple versions of the solution, including 12C and 11G.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

I'd recommend the solution to others. Oracle really is the best, even though the initial setup can be a bit difficult.

We use this solution for our applications that deal with online trading and data analysis. 

Currently, we have two customers using this solution. 

Oracle Database has many useful functions and features suitable for big programs and complex business models.

Oracle Database could be easier to use. 

I have been using Oracle Database for five years. 

Oracle Database is very stable.

Oracle Database could be more scalable.

The support is quite slow. It would be nice if they could respond faster. 

Deployment and maintenance are handled by an Oracle team. We pay them for this service. 

Our customers buy licenses from Oracle directly.

I would recommend this solution to others. Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give Oracle Database a rating of eight. 

The asset properties feature is the most valuable one since none of the other databases are able to match this particular aspect. This product has the correct way in which asset transactions are being handled.

There is need for improvement in the Oracle support. We get good support only when we have severity in cases and otherwise it's really tough to get. Thus, they need to improve their support for the lower level programs.

For example, for the SRS over the weekend, there is no support available. Sometimes what happens is that these things are not business critical but those are the ones that are driving the business; we have to hold that.

We have not experienced any downtime. It is very stable.

This product scales well. Exadata, which is giving it, is a powerful machine in regards to storage and so on. For a single instance, we need to have good hardware underneath; only then, it can scale. However, it's doing quite well if we have that.

Oracle support is really good. If we have some issues, we open a case and we get good support from them.

You should use it. I would recommend it.

I would also recommend to do some certification programs so as to get the best out of this product and get a detailed exposure of the core issues.

Vertical scaling is the most valuable feature for us in our use of it with version 11g.

For the company, the greatest improvement came with the integration and higher availability of data. We need to track our customers' needs, and the data with Big Data Solutions is now stored and used to get end user reports via QlikView.

What needs to improve is the real-time query response. We will be changing the Database over to SSD soon, which will improve those response times.

We are using an IBM AIX POWER machine with Oracle 11g. We want to upgrade Oracle Database to 12c.

There were no issues with the deployment.

We have had no issues with the stability.

We've had no issues scaling it.

Oracle and IBM often come into the office to discuss the situation and any current issues. We also get help with our teams who operate the systems.

It helps us to manage and run the company.

As a developer, I use the reporting side. We need a better reporting tool with some kind of data warehouse capability. We are happy with the product, though, and are just looking for new features. Most of the time we end up using any additional features they provide.

We have used the product for twelve years.

It has been stable for all of our twelve years of use. We don’t have much downtime. The product is really good.

It meets our scalability requirements right now.

We are quite happy with the support we get.

We haven’t experienced any problems regarding product upgrades. We follow a very systematic approach so that we don’t have downtime.

We are a big company, and we are satisfied. I think it is a good product. I would give it an eight out of ten.

There are many use cases for the Oracle Database and if I encounter any problems, there's information available which I can reference.

We are the ones who are developing the system and delivering it to our customers, so it does indirectly benefit our organization from this perspective. The fact that we are able to leverage the available information that I mentioned earlier, means we are able to make sure that development is successful.

The response speed of the support as well as lowering the price.

In comparison with other commercial databases, it's more stable but there are many challenges that we feel should be corrected.

For us, there are not so many cases that require scalability.

I think it takes longer because we're in Japan and if we have a problem then we need to pass the information to the US and it takes them time to respond.

Relatively speaking it's easy.

Oracle is the number one product I recommend as long as the customer has sufficient budget.
