Provides firmware compliance and the ability to connect to iPO
I'm using this solution for Windows and Linux servers, backup servers, and Oracle database servers. We're using a mix of two versions. We have version 7 and version 6.60. The solution is deployed on-premises. There are currently six people using this solution in my organization. We currently don't…

A stable and scalable APM tool that needs to improve its documentation and logging capabilities
Regarding use cases, we use it for app support. So basically, we use the APM module, and we also use it for monitoring It has helped my organization to dive deeper into the application using the APM module is very helpful. So when we're looking for problems of why an app is behaving incorrectly,…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Have a single plane of glass across all of the server platforms."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The solution's initial setup process was easy...The technical support is good...It is a stable product, and we will use it for a long time."
"Easy to add servers and get them monitored and manageable."
"It's rather simple to use, and that's very important for us."
"The best part is that you can integrate a two-way network. Earlier we could not manage the storage and ToR switch. Now we can create a LAN with our storage without any interface. In terms of switch management, it is now easy to understand the current configuration. It provides centralized management. It provides a single pane, and you can easily do all updates in one shot. It is a great product."
"Gives us one platform to monitor and access or configure all the servers or the 3PAR, etc."
"Just the ability to provision the servers with storage and network everything within one interface, not having to go into multiple interfaces to provision those pieces."
"Every time there is a crisis, high traffic, or if we see a problem with a server, we go to New Relic and monitor it to determine the cause."
"It is easier to create new dashboards in the New Relic interface, and it is also easier to query if when I want to monitor a different parameter or time duration on my dashboard."
"They instrument up from the bottom to the top – every piece of code - they have a very perfect read of what’s being done, and how long it’s taking."
"The most valuable feature of New Relic APM is the dashboard, New Relic Insights. I configured my own dashboard to monitor certain parameters."
"The integration and configuration of New Relic is straightforward and easy."
"The product allows the developer to see the actual problems in the applications."
"It gives insights to non-technical people about what technical issues are most important, how much it impacts customers, and potentially, where we should be targeting our development teams when they have time."
"It has in-depth analysis using developer code for someone whose not traditionally a developer."
 

Cons

"Integration could be improved. Sometimes OneView doesn't identify physical hardware."
"​I saw, maybe three years ago or two years ago here, or in Barcelona, at the HPE Discover conference, a feature that you can update Clusterware with VMware. But the feature is still not live in production. Currently, you have to do all the firmware updates and then you have to do the VMware updates. So you have two reboots and it would be better if it was just one."
"The speed and performance of the solution are areas where the product lacks and needs improvement."
"It needs more reporting capabilities."
"Sometimes the interface can be a little confusing, sometimes the error messages can be very cryptic, as far as what's actually going on."
"​We have a version 3 and a version 1.2, but the upgrade process from the 1.2 to the 3 is kind of an issue."
"HPE OneView should be able to cover more device models apart from ProLiant and Synergy."
"It's a little slow sometimes. Overall, I think it does what it's supposed to do. I think that as they evolve it, it'll get quicker."
"How granular I could go down at looking at certain data, especially related to the operations, is limited."
"The APIs could be better. I would also like more APIs and features to integrate with streaming solutions, like Kinesis or Kafka."
"The monitoring is only as good as the alerts that it produces. By having it set up fine grain alerting, it is a bit of a pain."
"It would help customers if there were an on-premises version available."
"We would like a dashboard feature to be created for this product. This would allow us to monitor both the front and back-end of our UIs performance, and then report on it."
"The solution should include more detailed reports for SQL database requests."
"One thing I'd like to see in any APM, especially New Relic, is the ability to use distributed transactions. When one microservice calls another, it calls another database and microservice. The entire data visualization layer will not be able to correlate from one microservice from end to end and return on that path. Distributed transactions would be a great addition that would make life simpler. Unfortunately, no APM has that end-to-end capability."
"The browser isn't exactly reliable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"HPE could lower the price."
"When it comes to the government, money is never an issue, so it was excellent in terms of the HPE OneView licensing cost. Hitachi was cheaper, but I'd rate HPE OneView cost-wise as eight out of ten."
"This license cost for OneView was $3,000 USD."
"I would rate the cost as six out of ten."
"I feel the product's price falls a bit on the higher side."
"I think that the price of OneView is $500 USD per server, which is a little high."
"​I am happy with the price."
"​Use it. It is free."
"The pricing could be better. We did not purchase the full version. Maybe if we applied all the other features of the full version of New Relic, we could get all the features that we feel are missing."
"We're paying for the New Relic APM license annually."
"There is a picture which goes to your browser and it monitors requests from other users. However, it's impossible to use now because the price is very high. The feature is very nice, but I tried it during the trial period, and the current price makes it impossible to use."
"The new licensing model is great, as we pay for what we use (in computational units). However, the pricing is expensive compared to other tools."
"They gave us aggressive discounts when they were brought in for the first time, but they have also kept them for the year-on-year renewals, which has been absolutely fine."
"The solution is less expensive than AppNeta."
"If it’s the right tool, it doesn’t matter what it costs because you’re going to get it back many-fold from your productivity."
"Comparatively, the pricing is expensive."
