We performed a comparison between Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control and VMware Aria Cost powered by CloudHealth based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I use the solution for troubleshooting."
"Using Enterprise Manager, I was able to create user profiles for all the instances that have the same profile. Secondly, it's easier to manage performance, to automate the AWR reports to run every half an hour, or hour. Then, if you have a performance issue you just open the report and you can see what was running the last one hour, the SQL statements, or what was causing the performance issues."
"The solution provides very useful insights for application and database performance tuning. We were able to do away with guess work in determining where the bottlenecks were in application performance."
"It is a highly stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"We have been satisfied with technical support."
"You can create a system group (database, application, and web server), so you can monitor performance as a system."
"From a performance perspective, the management capabilities of the product are very valuable to its customers."
"If you're using Oracle products, you should definitely use Oracle Enterprise Manager because it is central to product management."
"The solution is useful for cloud transparency and visibility in reports and dashboards that I have generated, especially the pre-populated dashboards."
"This solution is fast and very easy to understand, even if you are not a technician."
"The pricing is rather competitive right now."
"We use dashboards quite heavily, but one of the features that have really stood out is some of the policies we've created to alert us of particular situations."
"The product is easy to use in terms of monitoring all the environments. It works for multiple clouds."
"We are able to create an internal price of the product that we can then sell to clients. We get the cost plan at a good discount and then resell it with a mark up to our enterprise-level clients. This flexibility in pricing is one of the solution's best features."
"The most valuable thing I have found is the cost saving recommendations"
"The solution is good for cloud cost management."
"The product does have room for improvement in patch management."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control needs to improve its GUI."
"Oracle Data Guard monitoring: There are no alerts for redo log transport failure."
"The only negative thing about this product is that it doesn't support all environments or all applications."
"The installation steps are very complex and the documentation for them is very generic and does not make very clear the correct steps from the installation to the addition of the host and database."
"Adding new databases is difficult in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control."
"Sometimes the alerts are coming a bit late, for example, an alert for the CPU. It depends on the threshold that you have, how long you want to check the CPU of the machine. I got some faulty alerts with Data Guard. I had stopped a synchronization for maintenance and then I re-synchronized Oracle Data Guard. It took some time to appear in Enterprise Manager and send me the right notification that Data Guard was up and running and synchronizing. I realized this because I went directly into the database to check the status of Data Guard, and it was telling me that it was running okay. But in Enterprise Manager, it needed some more time to update the interface."
"The initial setup depends on your experience. For example, for people who are doing it for the first time, it's probably difficult."
"I would like to see better integration from CloudHealth to create easier setup and implementation."
"The export features regarding CSV files and specifically around identifying savings plans have room for improvement, as well as the drill-down features for reservation utilization."
"If you are working with the OS you need help and other connectors to get more information."
"CloudHealth needs to start building out Turbonomics-types of features that help the customers who are using CloudHealth really understand everything down to the server level, the virtual machine level."
"The performance and accuracy of Cloud Health need to be improved."
"It would be helpful to have a mobile version or a tablet version, especially for people who are outside of the office."
"They should provide information or tools to tune the cloud resources according to the environment size."
"The solution doesn't offer the best functionality, unfortunately. Some features just simply aren't on offer. The solution needs to offer more product milestones."
