Long-term server platform has supported secure banking operations and simplified virtualization
Oracle Solaris is a very good operating system. Most of the time, we do not need to change or replace any configuration. If at any point in time we need to change something, it is really simple and a user-friendly environment. Although it is a CLI, Oracle introduced a GUI environment with Solaris 11.5. Currently, 11.5 has the operating system GUI as well as the CLI. The technical persons working on the operating system most of the time prefer to work on the CLI. It is actually really good and easy to use. As it is a server-level operating system, most of the time you do not need any extra features in the operating system because you are not using the operating system on home machines, desktops, or laptop machines. The extra features are not needed if we are talking about the enterprise level or an official operating system.
Jatin Rao - PeerSpot reviewer
Zoho Developer at Tarini Consulting
Integration capabilities enhance operational efficiency while limited support impacts overall satisfaction
The most valuable feature in Zoho One is integration. You can either use custom integration using Deluge script, or there is another tool called Zoho Flow, which is similar to Zapier, where you can use it to integrate different applications. You can create webhooks, and you can use different methods to integrate all different things. Integration capability is the field where Zoho One is used mostly. Zoho One uses Zoho Analytics, which is among the top tools in the market for analytics, reporting, and dashboards. When you are using one of the top tools in the market for analytics and have its integration available, you can integrate with any of the Zoho One applications, which includes more than 45 applications, including CRM and Books. This provides you with high analytics capabilities, allowing you to create a report for anything, from anywhere, for any process.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Oracle Solaris is the incremental backup that happens in the system."
"It is a scalable solution. I recommend it for bigger companies."
"Solaris's best features are high availability, robustness, and database hosting."
"Its networking has helped me combine the power of a neural network with the benefits of virtualization to improve the AI's performance."
"One of the main advantages is the rock-solid reliability. It works. The stability is very good. It has a very good track record in the data security database."
"Due to Solaris Cluster 4.1’s Live Migration future, we have achieved 99.9999% service uptime."
"Based on my experience I'm very satisfied with the solution, and based on the architecture we have and the dependability, we never have downtime or impact of sorts."
"Oracle Solaris is a very good operating system."
"Zoho One is a good application; I think there are a lot of tools that help you to make your work faster, you can automate a lot of operative work, so you can save time in making detailed and operative activities and just focus on the strategic."
"Zoho One is fully customizable—in Zoho One, you get more than 45 applications, which include inventory management, accounting management, and CRM, as well as Zoho Creator, which allows you to create custom applications."
 

Cons

"The product is very expensive."
"Currently, there are two variants, there's SPARC and there's x86. I would have wanted a scenario where they're all just one product."
"Needs NTFS support and VMware compatibility."
"Right now, I see less and less organizations using Solaris and, at least from my point of view, there is not much active development around it."
"If you were starting from scratch, most companies would opt for x86 because it’s cheaper and easier to find skills and training for."
"The solution is pricey and can be improved by lowering the cost."
"Nowadays, I don't think Solaris has a lot of advantages over less expensive options."
"There might be some additional security features. The firewall must be more capable because security is the main concern of every organization and every user."
"I think that when you are running CRM and at the same time Zoho Analytics, and at the same time Zoho Recruit, the apps get very slow."
"The only area in Zoho One that can be improved is the support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a very expensive product."
"As a private user or individual, I wouldn't recommend it to others, considering it is a costly product."
"The current setup with hardware devices involves a higher cost, but the performance is top-notch."
"The price is not good and needs to improve."
"The price of Oracle Solaris could be less expensive."
"Its licensing is on a yearly basis."
"The solution is free to use."
"Solaris is highly priced compared to other solutions, but since it's a niche product, this is to be expected."
