We performed a comparison between Nutanix Database Service and Oracle Enterprise Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Database Development and Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We use the solution to save costs and simplify operations."
"It has some very good features. It really works with multiple silos in terms of infrastructure, database updates, and migration. So many things are easy with Era."
"AI has been deployed within Nutanix. It's very easy to provision the machine within minutes of the application orders. They can hand those over and work along with the AI team to get the data available quickly for business analysis."
"The patching is the most valuable feature. We spent a lot of time and effort on the patching of our SQL instances after hours. With Nutanix Era, you can schedule and automate them during your normal operational hours (during the day). You schedule all the patching, then everything happens automatically with minor tickets from the engineer. So, our patching, which took four hours, went down to an hour for the engineer. This is much better for us from a return on investment perspective."
"It saves operation time and day-to-day tasks."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Database Service is the ability to manage multiple vendors."
"It is also a single platform, all in one place, and that is a reason we went for this solution. Earlier, we had multiple platforms, the database and the OS, but this is a single platform that helps us with what we are doing."
"The most valuable feature is its robust infrastructure management tools."
"It's user friendly."
"It is a scalable solution. So far, my company has not faced any issues with the scalability part of the solution."
"The tried and tested services that Oracle provides is second to none."
"It is the best database management system."
"The most valuable feature is high availability."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is a very user-friendly tool."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Oracle Enterprise Manager was straightforward."
"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."
"It would be helpful if we could patch Windows operating systems with the solution."
"Their support is helpful, but maybe they need more technical staff. Their response was slow once, but that was the only time it happened, so I'm not sure."
"The initial setup was a little tedious and complex. If they could make the setup slightly more user-friendly, then that would definitely be beneficial. If they could give a clear indication of what ports are required across the business and multiple VLANs, then your prep work can be done beforehand and before you do the actual installation. Because the documentation that was provided was not 100 percent accurate, so we had to do a lot of custom firewall rules after we deployed Nutanix Era."
"I would like to see the SQL compatibility enhanced."
"The patching should be a one-button function. Also, it works about 80 percent of the time, but 20 percent of the time it requires manual intervention. And sometimes, until you understand the technical underpinnings of that process, you can't fix it. I thought we would move past that. In the last version, they broke a big chunk of that for me, and that's why I'm waiting for the new release because they promised me it would fix the problem."
"The solution could improve by providing more support for more vendors."
"Patch management is an issue as it regularly causes stability problems."
"The graphical user interfaces could be much more user-friendly. They are already user-friendly, but they could be simpler so that we do not need L3 staff to handle them. If they were simpler, we could also have some command center or L1/L1.5 associates do some housekeeping activities on it."
"I would say mostly backup and recovery, through the Enterprise Manager. Or any corruptions, to be able to fix them through Enterprise Manager."
"The tool is expensive."
"My opinion is that this solution needs to improve consolidation. That is what our business needs the most right now."
"We have encountered performance issues when the load is huge."
"The product must improve its support team."
"We could use it but definitely with some effort we can streamline much better and sometimes some box here and there, like 13C you have to really wait, but there are great features. Just have to make sure it is a stable product."
"The interface offered by Oracle Enterprise Manager has certain shortcomings and needs improvement to become a nice tool."
"I would like to see better pricing."
