Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"A good automated scripts feature.""The most value we get from this solution is that everything is on a patch cycle.""ConnectWise Automate's interface is pretty easy to use. It's pretty intuitive to get around and navigate it. It does what I need, which is usually connecting to the client and customers systems.""This product saves us a lot of time and increases our efficiency.""Scripting and patch management are really important for us. Patch Manager is something that we use a lot, and we would love to have it continually improved. It is one of the most useful features for us for controlling patches and other things for different clients.""We use monitors to keep track of our machines. We use a pretty good portion of information from Automate.""The implementation is nice and easy.""It allows us to manage all client requests, jobs and invoicing."

"What I like most about Oracle Enterprise Manager are its features, particularly the active session history. It provides insights into SQL, and I use it regularly to identify potential issues.""With ASH Analytics, ADDM, Real-Time SQL Monitoring, SQL Tuning Advisor, we can measure SLAs, detect performance hotspots, perform deep diagnostics into specific tiers, tune applications, and remediate.""I think the look and feel and the accessibility to the databases, the scale of environment support.""I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager eight out of 10 for stability.""The product gives us as much control as we can have by providing a complete picture of the whole set of Oracle products.""It is the best monitoring tool for Oracle databases.""Due to the infrastructure's size, the introduction they offer is very, very useful. It helps with an overall understanding of the product.""The single-pane and single interface in the centralized system is the most valuable feature."

Cons
"The fixed client for Automate is slow. The web client is not very intuitive.""The project management needs improvement and there's a section of the product called configuration that also needs to be improved.""We would love to get feature updates and cumulative updates fixed. I know they aren't really supposed to be pushed with Patch Manager. We've got recommendations from ConnectWise to use the scripted feature update installs, scripted KB updates, etc. Having these in Patch Manager itself would be great.""The wait time for a support ticket to be addressed needs to be reduced. They take a couple of days to get back. It is a little frustrating when we have to wait for a couple of days. A lot of times, the issue is critical for us. If we're reaching out to their support team and submitting a ticket, it is because we need it handled quickly.""The menu doesn't always load properly.""I have a problem with the reports available on the solution. I don't understand how to work with the reporting functionality. For example, when I want to give a report for a specific machine, ConnectWise doesn't seem to have this as an option. I'm not sure if I'm missing something, or if the reporting functionality is just poorly conceived.""Patching and reporting need improvements, especially reporting. The reporting engine is quite outdated, so you end up having to use your own dashboard.""Scheduling of automation could be improved and made more simple."

More ConnectWise Automate Cons →

"Oracle Enterprise Manager could improve the monitoring types and the graphics.""My opinion is that this solution needs to improve consolidation. That is what our business needs the most right now.""We would like to have a single dashboard for monitoring and controlling all of our products.""The interface offered by Oracle Enterprise Manager has certain shortcomings and needs improvement to become a nice tool.""Patching. It's extremely difficult to determine what requires patching and the process to patch each component is slightly different.""I would say mostly backup and recovery, through the Enterprise Manager. Or any corruptions, to be able to fix them through Enterprise Manager.""I feel more dashboards can be added, especially those useful to higher levels of IT management.""The product must improve its support team."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Oracle Enterprise Manager stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Several major ones are its central management and monitoring and its reporting capabilities

    Robin C., head of Oracle Exadata Centre of Excellence at Tata Consultancy Services, writes, "The database performance monitoring features are very useful and allow us to quickly zero in on DB-related issues. Exadata storage server and Infiniband switches can be viewed from the GUI in OEM which cannot be done in other tools. The ability to deploy metric extensions makes this tool extensible for our custom monitoring also."

    PeerSpot users note the effectiveness of these features. A database manager at a tech services company notes, “The solution's most valuable aspect is the fact that it is embedded with the Oracle database and Oracle's engineering system, its extra data, and analytics.  They have plug-ins that are very helpful. Due to the infrastructure's size, the introduction they offer is very, very useful. It helps with an overall understanding of the product. They have a very nice graphical user interface. The monitoring is good. We can capture the SQL tune from us. With Oracle Enterprise Managers, we can see the rich performance tuning.”
