Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control requires improvements in browser compatibility, documentation detail, and admin functionality to match tools like WebLogic Admin Console. It needs enhanced security features, integration with other vendors, and real-time monitoring capabilities. Users have expressed difficulty with complex installation, limited file import options, and insufficient plugin support for databases like MongoDB. Pricing is high, and support response times are long; technical knowledge within the sales team needs improvement.
