Cons

"Its architecture needs improvement."
"Sometimes, I observe the memory usage at 100% for the server, and this issue could be improved."
"This solution needs better management UI."
"Improvement is needed in the synchronization between cluster nodes, especially under network strain."
"It's hard to find out the root cause of errors."
"A graphic user interface can be added."
"Lacks some functional requirements."
"For access management, WebLogic Suite is a heavy application. This application requires more time for installation compared to other products."
"Lacking a solution for smaller applications."
"I noticed a few areas for improvement in WebLogic Suite. If you use the pure play higher-availability features, then yes, it can be switched over to the other system from the high-availability point of view, but that comes with a certain price. If you prefer simpler high-availability, that requires manual intervention. I'd also recommend a tuning feature in WebLogic Suite because it's not self-tuning, and this means you need thorough expertise to do the tuning and leverage the best benefit out of it. If Oracle makes WebLogic Suite automated or self-driven, then it becomes a wonderful product, similar to what Oracle did for the Autonomous Database which is self-driven or has an autonomous operating system. If automation is added in the next release of the solution, combined with more affordable pricing, though as a technical person, I know how much goes into having automation as a feature, and it could be difficult to lower the price, but if Oracle can do it, then that would make WebLogic Suite better."
"There are sometimes issues with clusters."
"Sometimes there are issues when we work on a VM because people use it to put all of their reports on it at the same time. Then I have to restart and rebuild the machine."
"The licensing for the solution is pretty expensive. It may be the most expensive solution, if you were to compare it to the competition."
"Compared to Apache and Microsoft platform products, WebLogic Suite has implementation complexity."
"WebLogic requires a person with coding knowledge for easy configuration and quick integrations."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is cost-effective."
"It is an open-source solution."
"While I am not directly involved with the financial aspects, JBoss is known for its reasonable subscription pricing. Potential users should consider whether the cost aligns with their budget and requirements."
"Scaling is costly."
"The product comes bundled with Oracle Premier Support."
"Technical support is very costly."
"The cost of the WebLogic Suite license is a bit high."
"There is a license required for this solution and the price could be reduced."
