Solutions Architect at a healthcare company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Initial setup was relatively straightforward for a clustering solution.
SQL patching High availability We were looking for a better-than-Microsoft-SQL clustering solution. The interface can seem a little old school at times. By Old School, I simply mean from a graphics perspective it looks like word 97, not word 2013. I have used it for three years. The team from…

Has supported ethical training effectively but configuration needs to be more user-friendly
When evaluating Oracle VM, I have concerns about the configuration being too complex and not user-friendly. It doesn't perform optimally on iOS, which is an Apple laptop, but works very well on Windows. To improve Oracle VM, the configuration needs to be more user-friendly and less rigid. Additionally, compatibility with Apple laptops needs improvement as it currently doesn't work well on that platform.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Customer service is excellent and technical support is excellent."
"Customer service has been excellent so far and technical support has been very helpful, quickly resolving any issues we encountered."
"If you want to access the VM from anywhere over the Internet, you put it in a public subnet. So, VMs are linked to that. The subnets are linked to it. So, it's perfectly secured if it's a private network. The security is set."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"Virtualization platform that's easy to set up, and has good scalability and stability."
"It saves a lot of money instead of purchasing multiple servers, and can allow you to load more than one operating system at a time."
"In terms of server provisioning, it only takes a few clicks of a button and a bit of install automation."
"Scalability is good, we're able to deploy the solution to big environments."
"It's quite stable."
"Good visualization hypervisor."
 

Cons

"Upgrading from DxDev to DxEnterprise was a bit more bumpy, but even that was pretty easy to do."
"The interface can seem a little old school at times."
"Deployment should be simplified."
"The configuration is very rigid and takes a lot of time. It is not user-friendly to configure, but it functions adequately overall."
"The solution is an outdated Xen-based application."
"Oracle VM should be more feature-rich."
"One is the hypervisor. Right now, it’s all using Xen. What would be really helpful is to have some choice, and the underlying hypervisor technology use KVM which is very popular with certain workloads."
"The solution needs more features and flexibility in terms of communicating with other platforms. If it had that, it would be the perfect product."
"The product could improve network virtualization and hardware utilization functionalities."
"It’s a bit clunkier to deploy and manage than other systems, e.g. VMware."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Oracle VM?
