"The most valuable feature of Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control is the reporting.""Of course, that you can manage and create the backup strategies from a central environment for all your environments, so you don’t have to do so on each database. You can set up the policy you want for each database, but you do it from a central environment.""The tool's most valuable feature is notifications.

Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control helps monitor the resources you manage so that you do not overpay.""We have been satisfied with technical support.""Advisors provide quick access to Insight and best practice information for performance tuning and configuration.""The dashboard and reporting help us to do preventative AI and analytics to detect performance bottlenecks.""Another feature is the Resource Manager, where we can manage the consumption of resources of certain queries, separately in resource groups.

"Because this solution provides insight into all of the areas within the IT stack, it would benefit from enhancements in security.""It is sometimes difficult to create configurations in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control.""One of the things that can be improved is the quality of results generated by BI Publisher. They are somewhat confusing when it comes to analysis.""There is a lack from the point of view of monitoring on the system. The performance of the system and its resources are things that I think can be improved. There needs to be real-time monitoring available on the solution.""You cannot use Enterprise Manager as replacement for a WebLogic console.""​Oracle Data Guard monitoring: There are no alerts for redo log transport failure.​""The configuration is not straightforward for web continuity. It needs some improvement and the deployment is expensive.""The product does have room for improvement in patch management."
