"Fast, Reliable, and Versatile—A Powerful Tool for Developers"
What do you like best about Oracle Database?

Oracle Database is fast, secure, and highly reliable. You can lock tables to prevent concurrent updates and maintain data integrity. PL/SQL in Oracle is a robust and versatile language that supports advanced features, including the ability to invoke Java methods and consume RESTful APIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle Database?

PL/SQL syntax can be challenging to learn and is not considered very modern, but it remains highly reliable and powerful. Debugging in Oracle can also be complex compared to some other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"very user friendly"
What do you like best about Oracle Database?

My company has been using oracle as a replacement for a program called Prelude. Prelude is a very outdated program and very confusing to navigate. Oracle does the same job that prelude does but its significantly more user friendly and shows more information all at once that I will need versus trying to use our old system that doesn't show much and you have to type in weird letters to get any information and without a cheat sheet is impossible to navigate. Very easy to use. We use it daily to process payments for auto parts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle Database?

sometimes it takes awhile to update in our system. That I'm pretty sure is just how my company does things though. When we had an issue with it going down it took over a week to fix which set us back but that again could also have been fault of the company rather than on oracle itself as a program.

Superior security features, backup and recovery mechanisms make it ideal for enterprise-level applications. Advanced SQL optimization tools and strong integration with modern development stacks like Java and .NET. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle Database?

Steep learning curve requires experienced DBAs to fully leverage its features. High licensing and maintenance costs compared to open-source alternatives. Complex configuration and administration overhead makes it less suitable for small to medium projects where simpler databases would suffice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
