Gaining seamless monitoring and customization capabilities
One of the best features of HPE OneView is that you get a complete architecture with a single click. The analytics and monitoring tools in HPE OneView are superior to other network monitoring platforms such as Nagios. The features include multiple modules that allow you to create and write your own scripts based on your requirements for different servers such as database servers or tapping roaming servers. There is more feasibility when using HP Service Manager because, unlike other tools with predefined standards for script writing, we have the option for customization as per our choice, and dashboard reports can be customized.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Centerity is much more than a monitoring tool — it’s a unified, end-to-end, enterprise-class and multi-tenanted AIOps Platform that is purpose-built to help MSPs and data-centers deliver the highest levels of up-time and performance."
"The machine learning feature is valuable."
"The Centerity gives us exactly what we need from performance system monitoring."
"I definitely recommend OneView; if you are an HPE shop, it's the way of the future."
"There was no other solution prior to this one, and we felt that we needed OneView because it could do more in less time and in an easier way."
"Deploys faster new virtual services."
"The solution is scalable and I used simulation mode for many enclosures and 400-500 nodes with no inefficiencies."
"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."
"By being able to deploy servers very quickly and rapidly, we can respond to any business requirement needed."
"It's rather simple to use, and that's very important for us."
"The deployment was easy, it has many features, and it is a great solution that is easy to use while providing a good inventory of your hardware and firmware."
 

Cons

"One of the major improvements should be it implementation as a SaaS"
"The GUI must be improved. Graphs must be changed including high level maps"
"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."
"Well when you're a partner you don't get HP Tech Support on your demo licenses so I had to build it myself but I managed to get through it and it's not inherently hard but you've got to pay attention to the details."
"I'd like to see more integration across Hypervisor and 3PAR storage and other storage products."
"​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 had some minor difficulties with upgrading, but the solution still works fine."
"Sometimes the interface can be a little confusing, sometimes the error messages can be very cryptic, as far as what's actually going on."
"As much as we've used OneView right now, it's probably not something that we're going to move forward with as a bigger footprint."
"Our first experience with the technical support was with one of the other products that is associated with OneView, which is ICSP, and the support was pretty poor."
"If I remember correctly, our CTO was saying that he wants to see a little bit more of integration into the HPE StoreVirtual VSA product."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Synergy does not require iLO licenses but servers and enclosures must be purchased."
"HPE could lower the price."
"The solution is free to use, but if you want the management aspect you require a virtual machine such as C7000 or Synergy which require licenses."
"HPE had some other solutions, but they were actually quite expensive to buy. So, when OneView came along, it was kind of reasonable in terms of price for licenses, etc."
"​Use it. It is free."
"I feel the product's price falls a bit on the higher side."
"This license cost for OneView was $3,000 USD."
"I think that the price of OneView is $500 USD per server, which is a little high."
