Performance issues have been identified and monitored effectively during peak hours
The weaknesses I would like to address in Oracle Enterprise Manager involve the dealing of Grid Infrastructure. Oracle Enterprise Manager's handling of Grid Infrastructure needs some improvement. I want to see additional features in the future that deal with security in relation to Oracle Grid Infrastructure. I want to improve these two components.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"EDB Postgres Enterprise Manager helps us to build custom files."
"It is a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for managing database consolidation, something that has been missing and difficult to do."
"There are a number of different user interfaces you can choose from."
"The dashboards are great for gathering analytic information and seeing where the problems are."
"Warnings and alerts are sent to the primary DBA. Primary DBAs address the alerts in a timely manner, instead of waiting for it to become an issue."
"I have never found a product that has so many of these capabilities in a single product and a single user interface."
"The 13cR2 updates to the OEM family, strongly integrate Cloud (off-site, hybrid and on-premise) services providing a seamless way to see all of your resources regardless of where they are deployed."
"The job subsystem, monitoring subsystem, alerting, grouping of targets, and reporting features are valuable to us."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager has eased the responsibilities among our DBAs. We can now assign individual tasks to separate DBAs."
 

Cons

"The tool needs improvement in pricing and support."
"I don’t think the response system is that good. It is too slow."
"More flexibility in terms of the user being able to customize a little bit instead of having it so standard. That would be helpful."
"The fact that Oracle Enterprise Manager is an expensive solution is a matter of concern and needs to be considered for improvement."
"I have been using OEM 13c which is their latest release and I would have expected that the product would have been more stable and should not have bugs for very simple things like CPU utilisation or amount of physical memory on Linux hosts."
"The tool is expensive."
"The solution has a very large resource system. It's too big. There are too many items."
"With any Oracle protocol, and Enterprise Manager is one of them, as far as the interface is concerned, it's not good and is still pretty ugly."
"The areas where Oracle Enterprise Manager could improve include the dashboarding, which could be made more intuitive, and the drill-down reporting, which can and should be enhanced."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Initially, our deal was for three years, and we extended it to five years. Oracle solutions are very costly."
"There is only the standard licensing fee. There are no other costs."
"We are satisfied with the pricing."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager is a free tool from Oracle."
"The solution is inexpensive to purchase."
"Based upon 3 days of implementation by a single person, plus licensing costs would be approximately $60,000, including the virtualized hosts."
"The solution is free."
"The license is good but can be improved."
