We performed a comparison between AppDynamics Server Monitoring and HPE OneView based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"The solution offers great visibility that allows you to track where errors originated."
"The platform is reliable in identifying the core system issues."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I don't see any problems in the solution...The solution's technical support was good."
"This solution gives us quite good insights that we might otherwise overlook, or it might take a really long time to debug those issues."
"The product has the ability to drill down to the errors whenever we have issues."
"We can view the server activities, including issues in the process, with a single click."
"The auto-discovery of the logs is the most valuable feature. It requires minimal configuration, we just need to set up on once and it automatically detects through the code."
"Setting up the monitoring agents was straightforward."
"The OneView Global Dashboard is very user-friendly and it can be used for monitoring the power consumption and temperature of the data center and racks."
"The most valuable features are the composable structure, infrastructure, and automation."
"OneView provides a single console, which is manageable without physical access."
"Firmware compliance is one of the most valuable features."
"The stability is very good. I have never had an issue with it over the three years that I have been using it."
"Provides the strongest support for automation."
"By being able to deploy servers very quickly and rapidly, we can respond to any business requirement needed."
"Gives us one platform to monitor and access or configure all the servers or the 3PAR, etc."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring has room for improvement in terms of pricing. If the price could be cheaper, it would be great for both the customer and the integrator. What I'd like to see in the next release of AppDynamics Server Monitoring is a better dashboard for the customer. The dashboard should be more interactive."
"The tool should provide information like the number of connections and processes utilized in real time."
"I would like the ability to choose from some pre-defined dashboards and reports because as it is now, you have to define them separately for each implementation."
"The solution has performance issues after we deploy the agent."
"If we consider the implementation of alternative solutions, such as Dynatrace, there is a notable difference in the approach to agent-based service monitoring. For instance, Dynatrace employs a single-agent solution, which can pose security concerns. When installing Dynatrace, granting the agent ld pro payload rights is a requirement. In contrast, our solution ensures a more secure approach by not requiring root and administration access. While we currently utilize an agent-based solution, there may be a shift in the next one or two years, possibly with the adoption of Open Telemetry. It's anticipated that many APM vendors, including Dynatrace, may alter their structure or strategy for implementation. However, as of now, the trend is towards an increasing number of implementations daily."
"The one thing that I find it difficult in using AppDynamics is, for any new user, it's not easy for him or her to configure the transactions in AppDynamics because the UI is pretty complex. The configuration is pretty complex for a new, fresh user. They can make the UI simpler, that'll be very helpful for anyone to configure their website in AppDynamics."
"In the next release, I would like to see the configuration of the data and more support for new applications. It should support new languages."
"I could not find a user-friendly interface for querying, and analytics sometimes gives the wrong results...I feel that analytics could have been better in searching and running the analytical queries."
"I had some minor difficulties with upgrading, but the solution still works fine."
"The main problem that we run into, as far as stability goes, is when something loses its profile. Sometimes it requires jumping through a number of "hoops" to really get it back."
"We've had issues, for example, with RAM."
"Specifically, it would be great if we had the ability to reapply the server profile faster."
"The solution's console can be improved by making it more user-friendly and adding the capability to filter the reports out using only the information required."
"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."
"I have to chop it up into smaller parts, because I have an installation in Europe and it covers the whole world. That is not so good. They need to be more localized, so I am going to chop it up into smaller bits."
"There was a feature called HPE cloud manager, but now it is owned by Micro Focus. HPE should make a cloud optimizer again."
