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.

Great notifications, a wide variety of features, and excellent monitoring capabilities
It would be nice if it also had a desktop application, similar to the phone app, which would allow me to monitor and control computers from my desktop. It's nice to be able to do things remotely using my phone; however, in many cases, it would be very helpful to be able to do things from a desktop or laptop computer. This would be especially useful for things like remote access to computers. It's too hard to do much on a Windows computer using a tiny phone screen. Being able to do things from a desktop or laptop computer would be much more productive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I would recommend Oracle Enterprise Manager to others."
"The single-pane and single interface in the centralized system is the most valuable feature."
"I really like how Statspack has evolved into AWR, ADDM and ASH reports, fully automated out of the box."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager provides a single pane of control that gives you the visibility to see all Oracle products, plus the non-Oracle products; hardware, software, middleware."
"We actively monitor the databases and can get ahead of any issues."
"The Lifecycle Management Pack for Enterprise Manager has allowed the organization to have an almost real-time view of security and compliance across every single database within the estate."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager has eased the responsibilities among our DBAs. We can now assign individual tasks to separate DBAs."
"In fact, I've already met many people in which I have done just that."
"One of the applications I have used the most was to troubleshoot users and I've never faced difficulties or issues with the application itself."
"It has been very helpful to get notifications about various issues with my servers and network to help me take action to resolve problems before they become major issues."
"The setup is simple."
"So this solution allows for 24/7 support and is very handy."
"Using this platform has allowed us to reach and assist our remotely based clients, regardless of their location provided they have an internet connection."
"It gives you remote control and has a mobile app."
"The solution has great workflow and server modules."
"They provide a lot of features; it's good and easy software."
 

Cons

"Technical support is good. That said, they take a lot of time before they start acting upon an issue."
"There's a lot of documentation to go through as a new user."
"We have experienced some downtime in terms of performance. For example, when we carry out some complicated code, it usually times out; sometimes it goes beyond sixty seconds and that's frustrating for the users."
"It is mostly stable, but we have found some issues when we are having resource contention or CPU issues."
"The deployment is not straightforward."
"Customer Service: 2 out of 5. I often choose to open an SR as a last resort."
"I would say the footprint on the server. Also the GUI can be tricky."
"Sometimes the solution can be quite difficult in terms of when you want to deploy agents."
"Sometimes the speed is a problem. When I've been remote controlling people, from time to time, there were some issues with people in Hong Kong."
"Remote Desktop Assistance for Mac endpoints - not having this functionality is a major inconvenience in having to have two systems for clients using this platform."
"GUI needs to be improved and the solution lacks a process for monitoring VOIP calls."
"It would be nice if it also had a desktop application, similar to the phone app, which would allow me to monitor and control computers from my desktop."
"They have good technical support but it's not excellent."
"There are some bugs or glitches."
"Support needs to be improved because we've sometimes had to wait 24 hours to get a response."
"However, the solution does not allow you to make a script for just one customer, so it would be great if that is improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is very high."
"We are satisfied with the pricing."
"The product is highly-priced."
"The license is good but can be improved."
"I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager’s pricing a five out of ten."
"It is part of Real Application Testing, so no new investment is necessary for clients who already are already using RAT."
"It's expensive."
"Initially, our deal was for three years, and we extended it to five years. Oracle solutions are very costly."
