Featured Reviews

Adam Elguennioui - PeerSpot reviewer
SAP Consultant at SA&BC
Offers flexibility and better accessibility to users
The security part of the tool is not so strong, making it an area I would like to see improved in the solution. When working with a cloud tool, it's never 100 percent secure and it is always something to take into account. I would like to be more comfortable working with it and feeling safer. In the future, the tool can be made faster. In the future, I would like to see maybe some AI features in the tool to help automate stuff. You need to be able to create your own models to help create some automated actions.
Abhinand Gokhala K - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Lead at Bigone Technologies
The product is user-friendly and performs well, but it is very costly compared to other tools
We are a software development company. We recommend solutions to our clients, but they ask us to compare it with other solutions. Clients compare the monthly costs of Pantheon with other servers and ask us to create the same environment in dedicated servers. If Pantheon reduces its cost, we can confidently suggest it to clients. Overall, I rate the tool a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The auto-backup, incremental backup and restoration features can be invaluable for management."
"Backing up and recovery for my domain is very easy and fast. In addition, applying patches and undoing applied patches is effective and easy to do."
"Self-provisioning, easy to choose from WebLogic 11g to 12c."
"Demoing is always an expensive process, from procurement of hardware to installation of software, now it is easier, cheaper, and more elastic."
"One key feature is getting to choose the Virtual Machine configurations while setting up the server, which is an automated process."
"It's a very low-cost option for a business to start with."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"Developers deploy their builds and if we need to scale the environment we can do it quickly."
"Pantheon has the most valuable workflow model."
"The product allows users to create multiple development environments."
 

Cons

"Integration with Oracle products is well-supported. The same should be provided for other products that are used in most organizations, like PeopleSoft, CA, etc."
"Some of the automated platform patches broke our existing functionality and we were not notified about it."
"It has been built on Java technology but requires more integration with other APIs and CI tools."
"I think there should be improvement with the speed and it should offer a more diverse selection of the suites that I can use."
"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"There are issues with the application's development, including small glitches and errors."
"The product is satisfactory but we need more training on managing the machine itself."
"I would like to see more monitors for standard edition"
"The Multidev environment is very costly compared to other tools like AWS and GCP."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Oracle is a little more expensive right now, but not much compared to SAP. Oracle's prices are very much dependent on the scale of the project and how many users are there."
"Oracle Java Cloud Service is an expensive product."
"It is somewhat expensive."
"The platform has reasonable pricing compared to other systems."
