Offers reliability and helps with the virtualization part
The product integrates with our company's existing IT infrastructure, especially when it comes to MicroK8s and other on-premises servers. The tool also helps with the virtualization in the ecosystem of our company, where there are other tools from HPE. Performance and network optimization are some of the beneficial areas in terms of server management. Speaking about how the remote management ability of the product impacted our company's IT operations, I would say that my organization has dealt with areas like RDP, DDI, and DMC, depending on the requirements of our final customers. In my experience, the product has contributed four hours in terms of reliability and to ensure the uptime of our servers. When it comes to the day-to-day use of HPE System Management's interface, I would say that it connects with some of the best tools and Hyper-V console with the help of Microsoft. I recommended the solution to those who plan to use it. I rate the overall product an eight out of ten.

Performance issues have been identified and monitored effectively during peak hours
The weaknesses I would like to address in Oracle Enterprise Manager involve the dealing of Grid Infrastructure. Oracle Enterprise Manager's handling of Grid Infrastructure needs some improvement. I want to see additional features in the future that deal with security in relation to Oracle Grid Infrastructure. I want to improve these two components.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution has improved our organization through the provision of efficient resource utilization and capacity planning."
"Overall as a management tool to see a complete overview of the entire HP hardware infrastructure, this is an excellent tool."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy with the help of the framework consisting of Microsoft Azure."
"The interface is in continuous development and improves version by version."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, which allows us to manage the entire infrastructure from the console."
"I think it's stable and flexible, and it's secure too."
"The managing and monitoring are the solution's most valuable features, and they are something I find quite helpful in my work."
"This is a good product and I recommend it."
"Enterprise Manager comes with a suite of products that includes agents for setup, making it easier to monitor databases as well as servers and SANs."
"My high rating reflects its ease of use and that it contains a host of features, anything and everything a database administrator would want it to perform; all the way from creating a database to adding space, to performance monitoring, to back up and recovery, to exports and imports, and security."
"I recommend Oracle solutions like T5 Super-Cluster, T5-8 and Oracle Solaris 11 operating systems, as they are highly scalable and fault-tolerant systems."
"We are going to minimize the downtime; if the system is down, it will page us and we are going to get to that issue, and it also tells us when the system is running slow so if some people are experiencing performance issues we can see that, and it is a very useful graphical user interface for the management to understand."
"With standardized monitoring templates and incident rule sets, we are able to consistently monitor, manage and alert all DBAs in each group to the same level SLA for our customer's needs."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring because it's very useful for checking and troubleshooting compared with other products, like Nagios for example, that have some interaction with Oracle."
"The single-pane and single interface in the centralized system is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Enterprise Manager are the data guide and online monitoring."
 

Cons

"Our customers would like to see the price lowered."
"The agents don't always connect and communicate very well with the server."
"Good system management is costly."
"The product should increase the processing capacity and allow speedy deployment, as both of them are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"If the solution could provide better integration to make it easier to manage everything on different servers, that would be helpful. Whatever servers a company has, be it IBM, Dell, etc., if the System Management could be a platform that links all of them together, it would make management across different server types easier."
"The return on investment report is too difficult to understand."
"I think that support integration could be improved."
"The quality of service and support for this solution needs to be improved."
"They should improve the hover text context."
"I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager six out of 10 for affordability. It's expensive."
"We have used technical support many times; it is very bad."
"Some of the new features it could give us: maybe access to some of the taxation data and also some of the other benefits it could include as part of the system."
"Technical support could be more responsive."
"I would like to see Oracle address the multi-data center monitoring and management in a more seamless way where management services are easily spread across the data centers like they can be today, but address the single database repository that can only exist in one data center at a time."
"The product must improve its support team."
"The reports are very busy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The support is yearly-based and the license is permanent."
"The price of this product is fair."
"My company has invested 30,00,000 USD in the product."
"The license was included when we purchased the server."
"As with all Oracle products, care should be taken when using any features to ensure that they do not activate licensed features that have not been paid for."
"The pricing is very high."
"Based upon 3 days of implementation by a single person, plus licensing costs would be approximately $60,000, including the virtualized hosts."
"The licensing is the responsibility of our customers."
"It is part of Real Application Testing, so no new investment is necessary for clients who already are already using RAT."
"The solution is inexpensive to purchase."
"The product is very expensive."
"It's expensive."
