Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

We came to know about Oracle Cloud Service and we thought of shifting few service to their cloud platform as we have policy to not to keep all data and service in one cloud service. They said their cloud is lifetime free and we created 2 machines in one account. But somehow all our machines were down on one day and all our data was wiped. So we decided not to use it further.

Pros

  • You can create multiple machines and they don't restrict you to 1 instance at a time during trial.
  • Large range of operating system images are provided by them with customization
  • Memory IOPS are better.

Cons

  • They really needs to improve their User Interface
  • Information on website is very confusing
  • No proper listing of recently used service
  • As of now services are very limited
  • We deployed 2 services but they were shut down by the oracle itself so we moved them back to other service
  • For us ROI was zero
Page loading time was really very high and apart from this User interface is not upto the mark. Reporting feature is good and its same just like other providers.
We wanted to move our heroku service to other cloud platform with better reliability and scalability. So we decided to give it a try.

As of now their service offering is very limited as compare to other providers. Policies are not properly listed and they're very complicated too in my experience. As of now they really needs to improve alot when it comes to their website and user interface in my opinion.
