Oracle Audit Vault and IDERA SQL Compliance Manager are products designed for database security and compliance auditing. While Oracle Audit Vault has an advantage in pricing and support, IDERA SQL Compliance Manager has more comprehensive features.
Features: Oracle Audit Vault focuses on streamlined audit data integration, offering centralized audit data collection and robust integration. IDERA SQL Compliance Manager provides detailed auditing with extensive reporting and real-time alerts, known for its customization options and powerful analytics.
Room for Improvement: Oracle Audit Vault could enhance its advanced analytics and audit analysis tools. It may also benefit from adding more comprehensive feature sets for enhanced long-term value. IDERA SQL Compliance Manager may experience challenges with its installation complexity. The product could improve its user interface for a more intuitive setup and provide quicker deployment options.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Oracle Audit Vault offers an intuitive setup process with strong customer support, easing deployment and ongoing assistance. IDERA SQL Compliance Manager, although more complex to install, benefits from robust documentation and support channels to overcome deployment challenges, providing excellent post-deployment support despite its steeper learning curve.
Pricing and ROI: Oracle Audit Vault generally provides competitive pricing, attracting cost-conscious buyers and offering reasonable ROI through streamlined security processes. However, IDERA SQL Compliance Manager, while possibly higher in upfront costs, offers superior ROI due to its extensive feature set that ensures deeper insights and more efficient compliance management.
SQL Compliance Manager helps database administrators to monitor, audit, and alert on SQL Server user activity and data changes. Unlike its competition, it provides quick configuration of audit settings, a broad list of regulatory guideline templates for audit settings and reports, before and after data values for both regulatory compliance and forensic data investigations, differentiation of data access and between regular and privileged users and applications, easy specification of and reporting on sensitive data columns access and changes, and extensive customization of audit settings for databases and servers.
