At our company, we use the solution in the production environment. I would advise others to try it because it is great for beginners, doesn't require any technical knowledge, and can be easily learned. I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.
I recommend that people look beyond the popular comment of the bit twelve box that it is only for deployments or to test at fault. It's a very powerful tool that needs to be configured properly. I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.
It's a good product. I often use the product, and there is no problem. So, I would recommend the product to others planning to use it. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
I give the solution a seven out of ten. I am using the solution for my personal use only and also in a few small network environments and labs. Oracle VM VirtualBox has an online community that can help with any issues. I recommend the solution, but it may not be the best option. Oracle VM VirtualBox isn't very flexible and can be frustrating at times, requiring restarting our virtual machine before it works properly.
I'm just an end-user. We are using the latest version of the solution. The whole solution we are trying to study for large infrastructure and we are making POC of that process. If this works, we will try to generalize it on an older platform. I'd advise people to try it. It's very simple and easy to deploy. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.
I would recommend this solution to others. It's easy to use. Everything you need to know can be found with a simple Google search — the whole process. Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give this solution a rating of eight.
This is a product that I suggest to people because it's free of cost, open-source, very user-friendly, and all of the information for the end-user is available in the manual. In summary, this is a good product but there is always room for improvement. I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

I would rate VirtualBox a nine out of ten. It is really good, and I like it very much. It is definitely not a ten because even though it has lots of support from Oracle itself, it is an open-source product. If you look at the user interface, it is very decent, but it is not the most polished user interface.

I'm not sure which version of the solution we are using. I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. If you're going to use VirtualBox on a small scale, I would recommend it, especially if you are using it for a legacy application.
We're just Oracle customers. We don't have any business relationship with the solution. We're using the latest version of the solution. While I can recommend the solution for personal use, in a professional context, I've never actually tried it. A company would have to do some research first to ensure it fits their needs. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten overall if I was rating it on personal use alone.
The VirtualBox solution is an absolute gem of a product. I definitely recommend this product to other people because it's super stable and easy to install and use. The only thing you need to ensure on your server is that you have sufficient hardware resources to accomplish what you want to do and that you supply the server with clean power. The server needs to be running all the time or you will have problems. If you put the box on a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply), you are all set. I choose to run the product on-premises all the time for our deployment and also for deployments to my clients. I also prefer to run VirtualBox on Solaris and Linux. In testing and in production using VirtualBox on Solaris is the best way to go, in my opinion. I do not implement production servers on Windows-based machines because of the many vulnerabilities in Windows. I tend to stay away from Windows as far as possible except for testing purposes on a laptop or a PC that runs Windows. I will use VirtualBox for that. On a scale from one to ten, where one is the worst and ten is the best, I would rate this product an absolute nine. It has a little bit of room for improvement even though it is an excellent product. It is super fast. It is very easy to use. It is rock-solid stable. With just a few more features and added functionality, it will easily reach a ten out of ten.

This is a great product and I use it a lot. This is a good R&D solution, but I don't think it would be good in production. We look for different things in R&D, such as doing a proof of concept. In a production environment, having a whole ecosystem to support the solution, including for orchestration and automatic deployments, would be better. It would also need to have more talks, seminars, and conferences, calling people in that space and then posting them on YouTube. There is a lot more to it than the technical aspect. Overall, I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We're partners with Oracle. We use the on-premises deployment model. We're in the process of testing the solution currently, so it is still new to us. I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. It's not an enterprise suite. Some of the light load applications I can't deploy.
We are using the on-premises deployment model. I would recommend the solution for licensing purposes if you are using an Oracle database. Otherwise, I would recommend clients to consider different platforms. The Oracle VM has the advantage of being free, so you only pay for support. It's very cheap, but I don't think it's very good as VMware. I'd rate the solution six out of ten.

We use the on-premises deployment model. Whether I would recommend the solution depends on the preference of the person who is going to handle the environment. If they're more comfortable with a product they have worked on, then they may go for VMware or Hyper-V. But if they are open to having a more license controlled environment, then definitely they will want to go with Oracle. I'd rate the solution six out of ten.

We use the private cloud deployment model. We're currently in the testing phase, but we're hoping to go into production soon. We moved to using Oracle VM because we have a small license. We did not enough have licenses for all server cores. Oracle VM has an advanced feature for hard partitioning. We're using the solution for the Oracle database but only on the Oracle application server. I'd rate the solution six out of ten.
I will rate this solution an eight out of ten due to its environmental guide. For the next release I think the developer should work on reliability and security. But it is a good product.

On a scale of one to ten where ten is the best, I would rate this product as a nine. I recommend it, especially for people who are beginners because most things they will want to use will virtually be plug-and-play. It's click-and-use. I would recommend it to those people who are beginners. Because most other products, you really need to know a lot of networking and how to use them to maintain them. But with Oracle, it is simple. For most needs where you have to only have a really small network, this will be fine.
