Efficient management and upgrades streamline complex setups
My main complaint is about the blades on the frames, which seem to have a lot of problems. We often have to call HPE for replacements, such as for memory. Constant issues arise, leading to frequent replacement of blade parts. Additionally, the upgrade process is lengthy, requiring careful planning as we cannot match ESXi versions without aligning OneView first, leading to delays.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The machine learning feature is valuable."
"The hypervisor and cluster profiles make it easy to integrate with VMware."
"We can add VLAN and update it."
"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."
"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."
"By being able to deploy servers very quickly and rapidly, we can respond to any business requirement needed."
"HPE OneView allows me to monitor access and check the health of the infrastructure in a single console."
"Easy to add servers and get them monitored and manageable."
"Provides the strongest support for automation."
 

Cons

"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."
"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."
"We've had issues, for example, with RAM."
"​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."
"From the dashboard and reporting perspective, HPE OneView could be improved by having multiple modules rather than just a single customization option."
"Those features, coming in version 4, that we're looking for are the discovery, primarily. But I think the scope-based access control is of interest, although, we didn't see any directory integration, so that, in itself, seems like it's still limited."
"The logs are not proper."
"It would be better if we can add every HPE device to OneView, such as MSA, as well as the other servers like the DL server and ML server."
"​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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"​I am happy with the price."
"​Use it. It is free."
"I feel the product's price falls a bit on the higher side."
"Synergy does not require iLO licenses but servers and enclosures must be purchased."
"I think that the price of OneView is $500 USD per server, which is a little high."
"This license cost for OneView was $3,000 USD."
"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."
"HPE could lower the price."
