In addition, applying patches and undoing applied patches is effective and easy to do.""Self-provisioning, easy to choose from WebLogic 11g to 12c.""The solution's technical support is good.""One key feature is getting to choose the Virtual Machine configurations while setting up the server, which is an automated process."

Cons
"I would like a simpler deployment tool on laptops. It is a bit complicated at the moment. We know how to do it, but it could be easier to deploy it on laptops.""The only concern is that there is a number of the offerings which are built on their own proprietary technologies. With some of the offerings in Google Cloud, it's difficult to have a path to migrate to other cloud providers.""Difficult to assess how pricing is managed.""There needs to be more directions in terms of how to use the solution.""The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The documentation and community are lacking for this product.""Data consumption of the device could be improved.""I am limited to sending a photo to five people. I want to be able to send a photo to many people, not just five."

"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The product is satisfactory but we need more training on managing the machine itself. For example, how do we add more storage, how do we extend a specific portion? I would like to see videos illustrating some of the technical tasks that we often need to do.""Needs better integration with other Oracle/non-Oracle products.""There are issues with the application's development, including small glitches and errors."
