"The most valuable feature of the facility, as the partner link, is to try to use third-party services and logic in your own vehicle to orchestrate the information.""This is one of the critical products for my company and we use it extensively. We currently use each and every feature of Oracle SOA.""Conceptually, how it integrates a lot of essential enterprise process components. That's the most valuable.""It performs better in real-time transactions.""The stability of the solution is the most valuable feature.""The product provides transparency in finances.""The most valuable feature of Oracle SOA Suite is all the platform's capabilities.""I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."

Cons
"In the next release, the tool should be more easily integrated and configured with other provisions. The pricing should also be made cheaper since it's very expensive now.""I would like to see NLB features in IIS.""Finding different settings can be difficult if you don't know where to look.""We'd like future versions to be more stable.""The price of the solution could be less to improve.""Compared to Linux, the solution’s Windows patching is slower. I would like to improve it.""The areas of this solution that need improvement are monitoring, debugging, and troubleshooting.""The level of technical support the solution offers could be improved."

More IIS Cons →

"It's also not developer-friendly.""Various parts of SOA, BPEL, and so on, each have their own consoles which need to be accessed individually with different logins. It would be better from an admin perspective if all the consoles were accessible via a single login.""Another area of improvement is performance. Because with multiple solutions connecting to the SOA platform, the performance of the SOA platform can be affected in time. So, that could be one area that could be improved with the SOA.""The solutions can improve the communication or translations between formats, such as JSON and XML. The JSON REST API could improve.""The web services need to be more robust.""The interface is too complicated. Making modifications still requires too much technical knowledge.""An area for improvement in Oracle SOA Suite is the cost. It could be lower.""I would like to see divided containers more separately as a microservice."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is licensed with your Windows installation which makes it relatively cheap if you already have a Windows Server sitting around."
  • "This solution comes included with Windows Server."
  • "The price of the cloud system is a bit high."
  • "The price of Windows Server IIS is expensive. They have a large user base, and they charge a little bit too much."
  • "We purchased a Microsoft Windows license and the license for IIS came in the package."
  • "I think it's part of the Windows Server, so you won't have any other costs to add in order to use the IIS service."
  • "I was using the trial version of IIS inside my virtual machines."
  • "I give the price of the solution a five out of ten."
  • More IIS Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Oracle pricing is expensive. Support is based on your license. AWS is much better than Oracle in this regard."
  • "It is necessary to evaluate the requirement regarding the platform usage and what the main operation area of the platform will be."
  • "This product is WebLogic based, hence it can be both resource hungry as well as expensive from a licensing point of view."
  • "Based on my knowledge, Oracle SOA Suite doesn't have user-based licensing. It has a system-based licensing model, so you pay for whole systems. Oracle SOA Suite is an expensive solution, so it's a four out of ten for me."
  • "The pricing is not very high as compared to its competitors."
  • "The product is moderately priced."
  • "Oracle SOA Suite is an expensive solution."

    Overview
    Internet Information Services (IIS) provides a secure, easy-to-manage, modular and extensible platform for reliably hosting websites, services and applications. With IIS, you get choice and control without giving up reliability or security.

    Oracle SOA Suite is a comprehensive, standards-based software suite to build, deploy and manage integration following the concepts of service-oriented architecture (SOA). The components of the suite benefit from consistent tooling, a single deployment and management model, end-to-end security and unified metadata management. Oracle SOA Suite helps businesses lower costs by allowing maximum re-use of existing IT investments and assets, regardless of the environment (OS, application server, etc.) they run in, or the technology they were built upon. Its easy-to-use, re-use focused, unified application development tooling and end-to-end lifecycle management support further reduces development and maintenance cost and complexity.
