When it comes to how Oracle Database can be improved, for me it is all about training and development in terms of gamification, creating awareness, and spreading the word to aspiring database administrators and database developers. As I have used it in the past and in recent times, many people are trying to get into IT, so the opportunity exists. Oracle has the market opportunity to take this time to spread its offerings and ensure that many aspiring professionals are aware of its services and products. From my perspective, there is not much to add regarding the needed improvements for the interface and the documentation. I give it a nine because I think Oracle sometimes can make things complicated. You have many services, many products, and many tools for different use cases. So it is difficult for someone who is only used to a particular product, such as Oracle Database, to understand all the other products and services that it provides. Probably streamlining it and making it available with categorized use cases for specific job roles would help. If you are a database developer, these are the tools that you need to be familiar with in Oracle's suite of products, and if you are a database administrator, these are the tools. Categorizing them based on the job role or function of people who are accessing these products and providing training capabilities on how to use them and how these products interchange and talk to each other would be very important because that is one of the things I struggled with when I started my journey as an Oracle Database administrator. Having that visibility of all the software products and providing free training and documentation on how you can improve and which products are best suited for integration to your product from Oracle would go a long way to help organizations and professionals. Regarding Oracle Database's AI capabilities, I am very keen on its governance and security. I think more work needs to be done on the security and ensuring that the database for a large number of people is watertight. AI is here to stay; however, governance and more stress testing of the AI capabilities needs to be done to ensure there is no breach of data. I would rate it currently at 6 over 10 and there is room for improvement. As long as there are government policies and Oracle policies that can mitigate any breaches of data and serious security issues, releasing people's records over the internet, there is always room for improvement in that regard.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Scalable and stable database platform. Setting it up was straightforward."
"Technical support is helpful."
"Oracle Database is the most widely accepted database, and it has built-in technical and security capabilities. It supports the new object in the database. The performance and security are very good, and it is user-friendly. There are a lot of people trained to use this solution which makes it simple to find assistance."
"The platform's security features and stability are commendable."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the cost optimizer and partition exchanges."
"The solution is stable and has good performance."
"It increased operational efficiency manifold, as it offers lot of features automating operations, and faster failover mechanisms (i.e. almost zero data loss) with smaller RTO and RPO, helping Business Continuity."
"The most valuable feature is compatibility with the Oracle database."
"Tibero has the mission to deliver reliable performance with a lower ownership cost."
"Tibero is a relational database management system, which supports disaster recovery, active cluster, active storage, etc."
"Tibero is very easy to setup and maintain."
"Tibero uses Hyper-Threading architecture, which is incredibly fast."
"It is incredibly fast, much faster than Oracle in terms of compiling and processing speeds, very reliable and secure, never crashes or gets overloaded, the true data never gets falsified or corrupted, it is very easy to port your projects over, and it is considerably cheaper than any other software on the market."
"Migration from Oracle to Tibero is very easy and it took us about ten minutes."
"A huge benefit of Tibero is its licensing costs are low."
 

Cons

"There are good dashboards and other features, but it was previously included in licensing. They are now charging for each and every feature. It was previously bundled."
"I only touched the online support and it's really not very useful because it's very difficult to find what you're looking for."
"My reason for not recommending it to others is because of their bad license policy and how they've treated their customers badly, in the past."
"Recently with the 12.102 version, Oracle decreased the number of hardware you can use. I would like them to revert that back to where it was."
"Compared to its reputation, it's worse than expected."
"When it comes to Oracle, the only complaint that I have is their support. For business-critical cases, finding support is a little bit difficult because of the timezone difference. They should provide faster support to resolve issues on time."
"We'd like for its price to be a bit lower, both for licensing and support. As it is a top-of-the-line product, it's a bit expensive."
"I would like to see lower costs. It has expensive annual maintenance."
"There could be more user friendly FAQs online and included in the software."
"The knowledge base is quite small and should be expanded."
"Manual installation is a bit tricky, but one can get used to it."
"In PL/SQL code, there is a scope of improvement. We expect more PL/SQL packages should be included in the next release."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is very expensive for the support."
"The price of Oracle Database is quite high compared to other solutions. It has a lot of options, such as security for partitioning and real application clusters. These options are not for free. Once you want to use it, you have to pay extra."
"Its licensing is yearly. It is expensive, and it should be cheaper."
"We mainly use a special license for ERP systems specifically, instead of a general purpose license. This ERP-focused license is very simple. You just have to use Oracle Database with an ERP system and that's it."
"Our customers buy licenses from Oracle directly."
"It is very expensive. We pay in dollars, so the inflation and conversion cost is also there for us. They charge on a yearly basis for the license."
"The price of Oracle Database could improve, it is expensive and they are paid annually. We are looking for lower pricing and flexible pricing plans, they are very rigid in the price."
"There is a license required for this solution and it is a little expensive."
"The price of Tibero is cheaper than that of Oracle."
"The overall costs are very low compared to Oracle."
