Amr Mourad - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Oracle Database Administrator at ISFP
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.
GagandeepSingh3 - PeerSpot reviewer
Principal Engineer at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Good at handling replication, provides cross-database replication but SAP can provide better support for cross-database replication to newer technologies
SAP can provide better support for cross-database replication to newer technologies. The product supports Oracle, but I am not aware of what other technologies it supports. If someone wants to replicate their data from Sybase to a newer technology for data warehousing or other purposes, it would be better if they supported those.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The single-pane and single interface in the centralized system is the most valuable feature."
"What used to take hours to solve a problem can be done in a matter of minutes."
"It reduces our downtime; increases our performance."
"With standardized monitoring templates and incident rule sets, we are able to consistently monitor, manage and alert all DBAs in each group to the same level SLA for our customer's needs."
"We use it extensively for performance tuning testing, monitoring, and configuration."
"It is the best monitoring tool for Oracle databases."
"We use Oracle Enterprise Manager as a tool to monitor Oracle products."
"From my experience, I'd say that the most valuable feature is the ability to manage all the databases, hardware, and middleware from one pane of glass."
"The most valuable thing about this product is that it replicates data between SAP databases (ASE to IQ) very successfully."
"It speeds up the performance in terms of how fast you are able to access the data, look at it, get it reported to you, and send it to somebody. It also reduces the amount of storage."
"This product has a catalog with the location of all the objects which were replicated, and it's very simple to maintain."
"We use this solution for all kinds of communications like RFC, BAPI, IDoc, connecting with the orders, accounts, finance, data stuff, banking, everything."
"It's pretty good at handling replication, even under high load. It also provides cross-database replication, for example, from Sybase to Oracle."
"We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done."
"SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience."
"SAP is renovating different things. We are using external tools to connect as of now. It is going well, and now the new generation integration platforms are going to be pretty easy."
 

Cons

"In my experience, the monitoring could be improved."
"The monitoring feature should be improved, so that it may be used as a dependable monitoring solution, as well as a deployment solution for SPARC-based hardware and operating systems."
"We would like to have a single dashboard for monitoring and controlling all of our products. This would add value, for us, because as it is now, we have to go to different screens to check different products."
"When contacting My Oracle Support, I encounter first-line support initially, which is inadequate as I require more in-depth support."
"It could improve in some areas like the screen. It's not so clear for the novice, when a new person looks at the screen he/she may not really understand where to start first."
"The reports are very busy."
"I don't think it is that scalable. We are using multiple nodes, and we have faced issues there, with the scaling."
"I would like to see drill-down tabs."
"There is a need to improve performance in high transactional processes."
"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly."
"Improvement is a never ending story, and HANA is doing some improvements. We are able to adopt that, and we have to do it by integration with HANA. They are very major changes that we need to see."
"The private solution is expensive. If you're in a situation where you're paying IBM or AWS or somebody just to host you specifically, you're paying people to run it and you're taking care of all the upgrades."
"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."
"It's complex. It's necessary to understand a little about infrastructure, like network LAN and VLAN environment."
"It's a very expensive solution."
"Setup was a little complex."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As far as I know, you do not pay for Oracle Enterprise Manager separately. You can use Enterprise Manager for free if you already have an Oracle license for your database."
"The solution is free."
"There is only the standard licensing fee. There are no other costs."
"It is part of Real Application Testing, so no new investment is necessary for clients who already are already using RAT."
"The licensing is the responsibility of our customers."
"I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager’s pricing a five out of ten."
"We are satisfied with the pricing."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager is a free tool from Oracle."
"It's a very expensive solution."
"You can pick one of the hosted cloud services as opposed to owning it and doing it yourself. Your cost of ownership on the hardware, the data storage, and the maintenance all go down. It depends on what service you use."
