We performed a comparison between IIS and Oracle WebLogic Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Server solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"This is definitely a stable solution."
"We use Windows Server only for Eggplant Manager."
"The graphical user interface makes it easy for users to configure the sites."
"The solution is the easiest way to publish applications which have been designed by older development tools."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to use and easy to understand."
"It's good and offers good usability."
"All the features of Microsoft IIS are valuable."
"Oracle WebLogic Server is secure."
"Another valuable feature is the ability to automate tasks through scripts, making our environment highly efficient."
"It's a scalable product."
"It has helped us to have different clusters within different servers, which allows us to identify hacker attacks."
"The tool's technical support is very good."
"The technical support is responsive. They are always ready to help by various communication channels, such as Zoom calls. However, sometimes it will take a while because when we are dealing with a problem, they need to look at the logs and configuration. A lot of the issues are related to the configuration that they need to look at thoroughly before they can give us a solution and it can take a few days depending on the type of problem."
"It has good integration with security features, including OWASP."
"We can manage every application by creating a managed server and a cluster."
"It lacks a few performance improvement tools."
"Having no support for other than a Microsoft environment and programming languages limits the usage of IIS in many cases."
"There is an issue with the network. The tool's price is also high."
"In the next release, I would like to see better integration between the cloud environment and the on-premises environment."
"IIS could improve by Microsoft Windows improving the update services. We would like to be able to update all systems that are connected. The WSA service has to be in good order to accomplish this."
"The solution must improve the integration between its databases."
"The product could be more compatible with Linux and macOS, particularly when applying user configuration policies."
"We'd like future versions to be more stable."
"The quarterly updates can sometimes lead to instability depending on the configuration of systems."
"Oracle WebLogic Server's configuration could be improved because we need to do multiple configurations when setting up anything."
"The solution is very expensive, and its pricing could be improved."
"Its pricing should be better. We are analyzing other options, such as JBoss, because of the cost of WebLogic."
"There are always ways to improve. But it's getting better every time, with every new release, and every new patch, it's getting better."
"They should improve the solution's garbage collection feature."
"The administration is hard, and it is more complex to use than others."
"If you want to use Oracle products to the fullest with enhanced customizations, you need to get trained. There is enough documentation and the flexibility to configure the application to your needs but you will need to spend more time gathering the knowledge."
