Neutral

I rate the initial setup of Oracle Database as a Service a nine out of ten.

We have two people who deploy the solution.

The price of Oracle Database as a Service is expensive.

I rate the price of Oracle Database as a Service a nine out of ten.

We have two to three people who maintain the solution.

We are looking to switch to another solution, such as MongoDB or Postgres SQL.

I rate Oracle Database as a Service an eight out of ten.

We use the solution for different projects. One is our ERP project. One we are using for billing purposes for a billing project. However, we later migrated that. We also use it for payment systems. We've used it for two or three projects.

In terms of technicality, Oracle is very good. However, in terms of licensing, it comes at a very high cost. They should have worked on a costing basis. 

It's a very robust database product. It has more capabilities like object storage, file-level storage, and database. The activity redundancy in the database is great. There is DCDR replication. It also has a GUI interface, so we can get the dashboard capabilities and can manage and monitor some things in the database from that GUI interface.

The solution is stable.

It is scalable. 

Technical support has been great.

It doesn't have an in-built database load balancer, like a database proxy and a database firewall. It should provide this feature also, the database load balancing.

The deployment is complex. 

We used the solution for almost seven years.

It is stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze. The performance is good. 

I have found that the solution is scalable. 

We have 100 or so users. For the databases, we are using them for more transactions, like 50 or 60 more for all the transactions we are getting with our system.

At this point, we do not have plans to increase usage. 

The solution has good technical support. We find them to be helpful and responsive. 

Positive

I have used a different solution prior to Oracle. I can't recall the name of the product, however. 

The initial setup is very complex. It's not exactly straightforward. 

We only need three people to handle the deployment. That includes one technician and two DB admins.

We had help from Oracle with the setup.

We have not really seen an ROI since the product is so expensive. 

The product comes with a perpetual license with the per socket license. You have the sockets in your server, and you have to pay for them. However, the licensing cost is very dynamic. It depends upon your license provider or the Oracle product manager. The cost depends upon that.

It's a very expensive product.

There may be an open-source option. However, Oracle has proprietary features. Still, it is quite costly in terms of the environment.

I'd recommend potential new users work on their licensing and requirements before procuring the Oracle licenses. They need to manage their ATS cost also in future plans if they're planning for two years or more. They should take care of this ATS part also and decide what their requirements are so they can get a good discount on that.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

As a service provider I implemented the on-premises solution with logic and KBM for thirty customers in Columbia. 

I am now migrating customers from on-premises to the solution's PaaS cloud. We use data for a TMR that is like a SaaP and connects with the cloud. 

Our certifications in Oracle Database are good because we don't have many certified resources in Columbia. Oracle helps with credits for savings on customer implementations and has a nice partner ecosystem. 

The solution's scalability and flexibility are very good and implementation is easy. 

The solution needs more certifications for other products and applications because migration to the cloud is difficult without them.

The solution currently uses GoldenGate for disaster recovery plans and I'd like the option for a different database such as SQL Server, MySQL, or MariaDB. 

I have been using the solution for four years. 

The solution is very stable. 

The solution is scalable. 

It is sometimes hard to communicate with support due to language barriers and I would appreciate multilingual technical support. I rate support a nine out of ten. 

Positive

The setup is easy for our engineers.

Our company has three engineers and fifty users who handle implementations. 

For on-premises, a perpetual license is a standard $17,500 plus 22% for one year of support. 

The solution is the most secure database in the world. I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I used version 12 of Oracle Database as a Service.

In the company, over five hundred people worked on Oracle Database as a Service in the last four or five years.

There's no plan to increase the usage of Oracle Database as a Service because the company is moving to another provider.

Five people, including a manager or supervisor, took care of the deployment and maintenance of Oracle Database as a Service.

I recommend Oracle Database as a Service to midsized and large-scale companies, mainly if you use the Oracle Email Delivery Service, which also requires going with Oracle Analytics Cloud. In today's modern world, if you're not using Oracle E-Business Suite and you store your data in the data warehouse and collect data from different interactive devices, such as cameras, the best solution is Oracle Database as a Service, partnered with Oracle Business Intelligence.

My rating for Oracle Database as a Service is ten out of ten, as no other service is comparable.

I rate Oracle Database as a Service seven out of 10.

The primary use case of this solution is to manage enterprise customer data.

The solution can be improved by reducing the pricing, making the deployment less complex, and increasing security.

I have been using the solution for three years.

It's one of the best databases. It has a lot of features, which makes it easy to manage, easy to run, and offers the best performance. Everything is there. It's good to use.

In such a heavy product, there's always some level of improvement needed. 

On the cloud services, they need to improve some console-level items, including the logging of the databases on the console level.

I've been using the solution for 12 years. 

The solution is stable. The performance is good. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze.

I'd rate the ease of implementation 4.5 out of five. 

The cost of the solution varies. It depends on which features you plan to use, for example, or which specific solution.

I'd rate the price a three out of five in terms of affordability.

If you are a developer or you have developers to develop items in Oracle, then you should go with Oracle. If not, then definitely go for something else. Oracle is very vast and the performance is good, however, you need some knowledge. 

Potential new users should take some time to compare other databases together. 

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.
