Worked right the first time out-of-the-box; we were provisioning to AWS within 10 minutes
Ironically, most of the features that we might have wanted to see were already introduced in the product announcement today, from what we saw in the beta, which was kind of cool. You can't come to market unless you have Azure support, and Azure was all over every slide we saw, so that was pretty cool. A couple of things that I did see, there are a couple of security features that need to be enhanced. It is way too easy to provision a VM onto a public cloud, wide open to everybody. So, there are a couple of issues there. We are obviously going to talk with the product teams and the architects about some of those things; a handful of things here and there. Most of the things we were looking for were already included. Things that we had requested a month ago, we are now seeing them here: Azure Stack integration and the OneView integration. These were the things we were saying, "Hey, if these were there, it would be really cool. We could use this." All of a sudden, "Oh hey, guess what is going to be at launch?" I am very eager to get my hands on the next version of this product, and to see what may or may not be missing.

Extensive tool features support database monitoring, but support and pricing present challenges
I don't fully understand what improvements could be made in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control. To make it better, more features could be added, but it is already a very complete tool, especially if you know how to configure it properly, as you can use it to monitor other databases such as PostgreSQL and SQL Server in addition to Oracle.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"With all the time and investment in all the competitive products, still it makes them not even a competitor anymore, with how this works."
"OneSphere being a SaaS platform, you do not have to deal with those issues, it is in quickly and you can begin utilizing it right away."
"SAP is a high-performance application, and we are able to use Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control to monitor and prevent bottlenecks."
"You can create a system group (database, application, and web server), so you can monitor performance as a system."
"The solution provides very useful insights for application and database performance tuning, and we were able to do away with guess work in determining where the bottlenecks were in application performance."
"From a performance perspective, the management capabilities of the product are very valuable to its customers."
"The solution is reliable."
"The dashboard and reporting help us to do preventative AI and analytics to detect performance bottlenecks."
"EM Cloud Control gives me a good way to look at everything in one snapshot and to stay on top of daily monitoring."
"The real-time threat detection has been the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"A couple of things that I did see, there are a couple of security features that need to be enhanced."
"We are looking to be able to set a hard budget for the workspaces or projects."
"It's crucial to promptly resolve agent-related issues to ensure continuous and accurate monitoring of database features within the Oracle Enterprise Manager."
"Sometimes the alerts are coming a bit late, for example, an alert for the CPU. It depends on the threshold that you have, how long you want to check the CPU of the machine. I got some faulty alerts with Data Guard. I had stopped a synchronization for maintenance and then I re-synchronized Oracle Data Guard. It took some time to appear in Enterprise Manager and send me the right notification that Data Guard was up and running and synchronizing. I realized this because I went directly into the database to check the status of Data Guard, and it was telling me that it was running okay. But in Enterprise Manager, it needed some more time to update the interface."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control needs to monitor other Oracle tools as well. It should also improve its pricing."
"When registering a host, only if your host is running Linux will you get all the information which is available on EM. It would be nice if in future releases to include IBM AIX (primarily)​ and Microsoft Windows (secondly)​."
"The cost for the licenses needs to be improved because they are expensive and scare many customers away from Oracle."
"It is sometimes difficult to create configurations in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control."
"Another point that can be improved is the agent instability in the monitored hosts, because sometimes an agent has to be resynchronized to recapture the information."
"The product does have room for improvement in patch management."
