Peter - It depends. If you are a big user of OEM today, then you'll probably want them. In the long run they are probably a little like OEM itself. Excellent for getting novices into the Oracle game, but eventually you must learn what is beneath the tool. I found that STATSPACK offered better information and was easier to use and especially to automate. Management likes GUI tools because they can walk past and see some impressive graphs. I don't like the fact that Oracle has chosen to limit these tools to EE. It is ridiculous to make me pay a stiff price for an optional tool and then tell me I can't use it with all my databases.

Are these addons to OEM worth buying?

Thanks
