We performed a comparison between Microsoft Configuration Manager and Oracle Enterprise Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of this solution is its ability to deploy patches to nearly all applications."
"What's valuable is the basic management of the systems, being able to control who can access the systems."
"The solution is stable."
"This has made the management of our environment easier."
"We're a Microsoft-centric organization, so we are happy with the integration between products."
"You can remote control or RDP. That has been the most valuable because we can go into one console and can get to anything we want. Instead of going to all these different consoles, we centralized everything."
"Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager is very scalable."
"The product is very stable compared to older versions."
"The most valuable feature is high availability."
"It is the best database management system."
"We can manage everything in our environment."
"It's user friendly."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager has eased the responsibilities among our DBAs. We can now assign individual tasks to separate DBAs."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is a very user-friendly tool."
"It's a useful feature to be able to see the top SQL, the number of executions, the CPU, and the resources that it's using."
"There is no asset management package included."
"The tool's deployment is complex and depends on the architecture you want to implement."
"One area of improvement is regarding the patching of Office 365 products. We have some difficulties on this side, and it can be improved."
"Their compliance reporting is not accurate, and they admitted it on the phone when we had a call with them. We were trying to understand why their numbers didn't match on our compliance reports. It is not accurate and you cannot depend on the compliance reports. The numbers just don't match, and we can't figure out why. We called Microsoft and they said, "Yeah, that's a known issue." But there is no word that they're working on it."
"Regarding this, I'd like to mention the agent situation. When the agent on an end-user device is not functioning correctly, it can be quite problematic. It would be highly beneficial if there were a self-healing mechanism in place. Essentially, if the agent becomes corrupted or encounters issues, it should be able to rectify itself autonomously. This is particularly critical because, in order to utilize a tool like MECM (assuming you're referring to Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager), we need to deploy agents, known as AsMs, on all the devices we use, such as Windows 10 or Windows Server. Sometimes, when we deploy configurations or updates, they don't apply properly due to agent issues. This issue has been present since we began using MECM around 23 years ago. Unfortunately, there is currently no built-in mechanism for the agent to detect its own problems and initiate self-repair. Microsoft doesn’t have any feature to scan vulnerabilities and hence, they could include those."
"The App to upgrades to the server needs to be improved."
"The ability to integrate MDM would be great."
"The solution does not support remote devices so the CMG is still required."
"We have encountered performance issues when the load is huge."
"The solution is not as simple as people say it is."
"In my experience, the monitoring could be improved."
"The solution is considered expensive."
"Reporting and statistical charting is largely still left up the end-user to develop custom solutions."
"The product must improve its support team."
"Technical support could be more responsive."
"My opinion is that this solution needs to improve consolidation. That is what our business needs the most right now."
