A user friendly solution that makes it easy to submit and view jobs
The most valuable feature of Micro Focus Cloud Service is how user-friendly the solution is. Traditionally, when we use a mainframe system to submit jobs, we have to see the spool or any error we might get in the spool. It is very command-based and uses a green screen, which is not user-friendly. Micro Focus enterprise makes it easy to submit and view jobs. We just have to log into the particular portal, go to the catalog and view any files we want. The same can be said about submitting jobs. We know what JCL we want to submit, give it the path, and then submit it with no command required. It is very user-friendly.

Extensive tool features support database monitoring, but support and pricing present challenges
I don't fully understand what improvements could be made in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control. To make it better, more features could be added, but it is already a very complete tool, especially if you know how to configure it properly, as you can use it to monitor other databases such as PostgreSQL and SQL Server in addition to Oracle.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool's most valuable feature is life cycle management."
"The most valuable feature of Micro Focus Cloud Service is how user friendly the solution is."
"​The solution provides very useful insights for application and database performance tuning. We were able to do away with guess work in determining where the bottlenecks were in application performance.​"
"Advisors provide quick access to Insight and best practice information for performance tuning and configuration."
"The tool is mainly for monitoring databases, especially focusing on performance. It supports various databases, including Oracle, allowing daily activity monitoring. The solution enables displaying performance metrics, providing continuous tracking. It also offers management capabilities for connected databases, featuring graphical performance graphs. Users can perform tasks like killing sessions and controlling database elements. Additionally, it allows viewing tables, SAN disks, and other database components."
"Another feature is the Resource Manager, where we can manage the consumption of resources of certain queries, separately in resource groups. Depending on the characteristics of the query, queries can be placed in groups that consume less database and hardware resources."
"The capability to manage incidents, monitor agent statuses, and address performance issues is highly valuable."
"The solution is stable. It is great in terms of Oracle products, especially for Oracle databases."
"With the last version I worked with, we can perform auto-configuration to resolve issues for the database, such as automatically adding space when a tablespace runs low."
"If you're using Oracle products, you should definitely use Oracle Enterprise Manager because it is central to product management."
 

Cons

"OpenText Cloud Service Automation needs to incorporate easier installation. It should improve skills and quality of support."
"I would like fewer restrictions as a software tester."
"The product does have room for improvement in patch management."
"​Oracle Data Guard monitoring: There are no alerts for redo log transport failure.​"
"Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control needs to improve its GUI."
"The product lacks in the area of database, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The initial setup depends on your experience. For example, for people who are doing it for the first time, it's probably difficult."
"Adding new databases is difficult in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control."
"Because this solution provides insight into all of the areas within the IT stack, it would benefit from enhancements in security."
"Because all our banking infrastructure is based on Oracle, I’ve tried to register Enterprise Manager on the middleware level, let's say, WebLogic applications. But I cannot say that I can do all the administration from Enterprise Manager, that I can do from the WebLogic Admin Console. So, I think here it needs some improvement: Things that you can do on the WebLogic Admin Console, you should be able to do them on the Enterprise Manager, so you don’t have to log into the Admin Console."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"OpenText Cloud Service Automation's pricing is average."
"Our customer uses Oracle Universal Credits to pay for their license on an annual basis. The price is definitely affordable."
"The tool's pricing is competitive."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control is a little expensive."
"One has to pay for the enterprise version."
"The solution's pricing is fine."
"I personally feel that the tool can be considered to be a little bit on the expensive side."
"The licensing costs are largely too high."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."
