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

"We really look at infrastructure as a service as the major trend in IT, at least for a service provider like us, for the next 3 to 4 years, so we really want to have a precise, clearly defined, but very dynamic and flexible private cloud where we can easily provision and deploy infrastructure as a service to our end customers."

"The tool's most valuable feature is life cycle management."

"Scalability is the most valuable feature to us."

"These products let us integrate multiple tools together and help to automate the processes by cutting down time and effort through the modules and reusable contents."

"The tool's most valuable feature is life cycle management."

"The ability to tie the pieces together, supporting multiple providers across both HPE and non-HPE products, is crucial in a heterogeneous environment composed of many different commercial and in-house developed components."

"The most valuable feature of Micro Focus Cloud Service is how user friendly the solution is."

"You can create a system group (database, application, and web server), so you can monitor performance as a system."

"The solution is reliable."

"From a performance perspective, the management capabilities of the product are very valuable to its customers."

"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."

"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."

"For those with larger footprints, but with an inexperienced staff, it really helped to cushion the issues brought on by skill gaps."

"It is easier to manage your Oracle Database backups and create email alerts regarding the status of your backups (Succeeded or Failed)."

"In summary, I would highly recommend this solution."

Cons

"I haven't found very user friendly things, some are a little tricky."

"OpenText Cloud Service Automation needs to incorporate easier installation. It should improve skills and quality of support."

"I’d like to see better monitoring visibility. We have to rely on HPE Technical Services to tell us when those challenges and problems occur."

"Deployment has been extremely painful for the production environment. This was mostly due to the decision to use our internal Microsoft-based Certificate Authority (CA)."

"I would like fewer restrictions as a software tester."

"OpenText Cloud Service Automation needs to incorporate easier installation. It should improve skills and quality of support."

"Adding new databases is difficult in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control."

"We did encounter some stability issues but many of them were fixed."

"The response time of the solution's technical support team is too long and should be improved."

"The initial setup depends on your experience. For example, for people who are doing it for the first time, it's probably difficult."

"When registering a host, only if your host is running Linux will you get all the information which is available on EM. It would be nice if in future releases to include IBM AIX (primarily) and Microsoft Windows (secondly)."

"Sometimes the alerts are coming a bit late, for example, an alert for the CPU."

"The only negative thing about this product is that it doesn't support all environments or all applications."

"One of the things that can be improved is the quality of results generated by BI Publisher. They are somewhat confusing when it comes to analysis."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"OpenText Cloud Service Automation's pricing is average."

"it's neither expensive nor cheap."

"I personally feel that the tool can be considered to be a little bit on the expensive side."

"One has to pay for the enterprise version."

"Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control is a little expensive."

"Our customer uses Oracle Universal Credits to pay for their license on an annual basis. The price is definitely affordable."

"We are using the free version. We are not using any licensed packages of Enterprise Manager, so I’m not quite sure how much each package is. As I understand it, there are different plug-ins that you need to buy for Enterprise Manager."

"The tool's pricing is competitive."

"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."
