We performed a comparison between BigPanda 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 best of a bad lot was the error message deduping."
"The solution is user-friendly and has good performance and certification."
"A user-friendly solution."
"The event correlation is really good and it is able to reduce the noise. It is a good tool for anomaly detection."
"The main thing that we like about BigPanda is the user interface."
"One of the most valuable features of BigPanda is its user-friendly interface."
"The program is very stable."
"Easy integration - We've had challenges in the past integrating all of our various monitoring sources and tools into one central system. BigPanda, with the integrations that it already has, as well as offering webhook/REST API, has made it very easy for us to plug everything in."
"The hypervisor and cluster profiles make it easy to integrate with VMware."
"We could literally swap out a piece of hardware, slide one back into the chassis, and immediately - about three reboots later - it was identical. We didn't have to worry about configuring it, we didn't have to spend any time getting anything into place. It came back and it healed the environment almost immediately."
"By being able to deploy servers very quickly and rapidly, we can respond to any business requirement needed."
"The easy user interface was what I found most valuable in HPE OneView. For example, if I wanted to know the infrastructure status or I needed to send in any change commands, HPE OneView had simple buttons."
"We lose less time managing the machines."
"The remote support automatically logs service calls and support cases with HPE, which is really good."
"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."
"Easy to see if all my servers are on correct firmware levels, with SPP packaging."
"BigPanda attempts a little of everything and fails at most."
"We had to use a partner for the deployment."
"The observability can be enriched with regards to infrastructure and the application-integrated environment. The dashboard and reports could be improved."
"The UI for this solution could be improved. It is very hard to find what you are looking for."
"BigPanda could improve by syncing its threshold settings with Dynatrace to align with users' familiarity."
"The usability needs to improve, because it is a pure code environment."
"The solution could improve by having better integration."
"BigPanda can improve the correlations. We didn't see any big value. It is still good at the same event deduplication, event processing, and ticket creation, but I was more looking at event analysis and event correlation. In that area, it is still no big difference between the other solutions on the market. All of them, are in the same immature stage."
"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 solution could add storage, integration services, and end-to-end support for Cisco switches or other competitor products."
"I would like to see support for things that aren't in the current generation. We have a lot of 7th and 8th generation hardware."
"There was a feature called HPE cloud manager, but now it is owned by Micro Focus. HPE should make a cloud optimizer again."
"Use it, but do not think it is going into the clouds, because it is not. There is room for improvement."
"I think HPE could make more user-friendly interfaces, exclude Java and move to an HTML5 platform, make more detailed documentation, and lower the price."
"It needs more reporting capabilities."
