We performed a comparison between Oracle Enterprise Manager and Quest SharePlex based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Database Development and Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We use Oracle Enterprise Manager for a lot of services like ERP and PLM."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is a very user-friendly tool."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Enterprise Manager are the data guide and online monitoring."
"The single-pane and single interface in the centralized system is the most valuable feature."
"We can manage everything in our environment."
"The dashboards are great for gathering analytic information and seeing where the problems are."
"The tried and tested services that Oracle provides is second to none."
"It is a scalable solution. So far, my company has not faced any issues with the scalability part of the solution."
"Because of the volume of the transactions, we heavily use a feature that allows SharePlex to replicate thousands of transactions. It's called PEP, Post Enhancement Performance, and that has helped us scale tremendously."
"The core features of the solution we like are the reliability of the data transfer and the accuracy of data read and write. The stability of the solution is also excellent."
"I like SharePlex's Compare and Repair tool."
"The core replication and its performance. Performance is crucial, and SharePlex is by far the fastest. The way it handles replication to multiple targets along with basic filtering, as well as from multiple sources to a single target, is very efficient."
"There are some capabilities within SharePlex where you can see how the data is migrating and if it still maintains good data integrity. For example, if there are some tables that get out of sync, there are ways to find them and fix the problem on the spot. Since these are very common issues, we can easily fix these types of problems using utilities, like compare and repair. So, if you find something is out of sync, then you can just repair that table. It basically syncs that table from source to target to see if there are any differences. It will then replicate those differences to the target."
"The user interface is not very interactive. It needs improvement."
"In my opinion, rather than a younger DBA, think the user interface could be improved."
"Technical support could be faster."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager could improve the monitoring types and the graphics."
"Reporting and statistical charting is largely still left up the end-user to develop custom solutions."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager's scalability is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager six out of 10 for affordability. It's expensive."
"We could use it but definitely with some effort we can streamline much better and sometimes some box here and there, like 13C you have to really wait, but there are great features. Just have to make sure it is a stable product."
"I would like more ability to automate installation and configuration in line with some of the DevOps processes that are more mature in the market. That would be a considerable improvement."
"I would like the solution to have some kind of machine learning and AI capabilities. Often, if we want to improve the performance of posting, we have to bump up a parameter. That means we need to stop the process, come up with a figure that we want to bump the parameter up to, and then start SharePlex. Machine learning and AI capabilities for these kinds of improvement would tremendously help boost productivity for us."
"The reporting features need improvement. It would be very good for users to have a clear understanding of the status of replication."
"For its function in relation to replication (i.e. filtering), I'd give it a six or seven out of 10. GoldenGate has much more functionality by comparison."
"I don't know how easy it would be to change the architecture in an already implemented replication. For example, if we have a certain way of architecting for a particular database migration and want to change that during a period of time, is that an easy or difficult change? There was a need for us to change the architecture in-between the migration, but we didn't do it. We thought, "This is possibly complicated. Let's not change it in the middle because we were approaching our cutover date." That was one thing that we should have checked with support about for training."
