Work with Oracle on any system
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Oracle Database from other similar products?
Very good tool for storing information about company data. It has a good system to be able to retrieve information when a problem has occurred in the system, and also something very good is that its SQL and PLSQL support is effective so there is no need to worry. This seems to me to be a tool with a solid base that provides security in the systematic architecture of the data of any business. Large amounts of information can be processed and the system continues to develop efficiently.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The feature that most strikes me is its compatibility, thanks to it I can work with Oracle on any system. It can be considered that as DBMS it is very complete, that is why it is the most recommended. I like that I can keep track of all jobs using their security roles as I can rank people based on the roles they play in database development and analysis. It has several functions that can work simultaneously so that it can be used in multiple tasks and shorten the time of analysis or presentation of results.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The configuration of the software is somewhat complex, especially for those who are not used to working with this system. The functions are included within but it is not only to install, if you want to take advantage of all that Oracle offers, it is necessary to have access to informative material since at first glance it can be intimidating.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
It is very accessible and even more if you take into account that it is a tool with many years of experience in the database market, it also has all the functions that are necessary to carry out inventories and it is even perfect for multitasking, and what I it seems better is that it has several built-in languages, so you don't have to subscribe to a single language to work.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing

Excellent tool as a database
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Oracle Database from other similar products?
I consider Oracle Database to be a good tool for managing data systems. Something that could differentiate it from other systems is that you can decide if your information will be stored in an information cloud, or if you better want to have your information on a local disk. Thanks to this service I can back up the information and make backup copies that later serve to migrate database systems. It has been very helpful to me since its performance is quite optimal so that I can work safely.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
My favorite feature is hands down its ability to insert hints to get the most out of your work. It is good that you can use PL / SQL, that makes it possible to raise the level of work and obtain better results and to this we could add that the system accepts many types of programmatic languages, something ideal for those of us who make information connections. It seems to me very successful that you can work with Excel and that the system does not reject it. The truth is that Oracle always surprises wherever it works, and I can always trust that the program provides a lot of security.
What do you dislike most about this product?
At first it is not very understandable everything that Oracle has to offer, many people can get lost between the interface and the functions it offers, so I would suggest creating a greater dissemination source that helps users understand the behavior of the system and thus manage your databases with greater security.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I recommend Oracle because it is a database system that allows any company to carry out its computer processes without problem since the system holds enough information that can be exchanged without major problem, in addition, information can be encrypted, as well as compressed and from that To significantly reduce storage loads, Oracle is certainly very good at what it does.

- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing
