We performed a comparison between DX Spectrum 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."Discovery: Scheduled, on-demand, synchronized with eHealth."
"The solution's most valuable features are its integration with Broadcom tools and scalability."
"The Spectrum tool improved our network assurance levels for our business units."
"The most valuable feature is the auto-discovery, which is nice because you don't have to do anything to add a new component."
"We were able to standardize the internal processes across all internal departments, resulting in almost an elimination of non-standard process flows through our organization."
"It is easy to navigate."
"The granular access control that it provided so that you could only see devices that were related to what you were working on was great. I couldn't see the entire inventory of devices. I could only see the ones that were related to my work. It has got a very granular access control component."
"This product provides good visibility into applications at the backend."
"It's rather simple to use, and that's very important for us."
"Broad range of tools to create executive and operations dashboards."
"Have a single plane of glass across all of the server platforms."
"We also have the 3PAR and the GUI is almost the same. So the recognition is very good."
"We lose less time managing the machines."
"Gives the business interfaces to view real-time pictures of IT business services."
"Gives us one platform to monitor and access or configure all the servers or the 3PAR, etc."
"Comprehensive dashboard, ease of use are key features."
"It doesn't really allow for multi-tenancy. If you're an ISP or an MSP and you want to use this tool to provide these types of fault management services to your customers, you would need a separate SpectroSERVER for each customer..."
"OS monitoring needs to be better developed, as well as their services, e.g., cluster monitoring, URLs, etc."
"Event correlation only works on one server, rather than on all of the servers in the same cluster environment."
"I would like to see CA move Spectrum, Performance Manager, and some of their other tools moved to a SaaS based model. You see a lot of other manufacturers which are moving toward SaaS based models."
"I would like to see them eliminate the Java console. The user interface for this is a Java applet that runs on your desktop, and it is very problematic for us."
"Integration with some other tools, and integration with some Network Packet Broker, need some improvement."
"I would recommend AI capability built-in so it becomes more predictable and we jump ahead of the curve. This is the one really important feature I would really like to see in any product that provides alarms."
"If they could interact with the MIBs of vendors better, and have a lot more pre-loaded ones, that would be amazing for us right now."
"The network configuration part of HPE OneView needs improvement. The solution has way too many features, and there's a need for proper configuration indicators to be put in place."
"The speed and performance of the solution are areas where the product lacks and needs improvement."
"One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself."
"Technical support is not very good. The engineers do not know a lot about the product, even when asked simplistic questions."
"It needs more reporting capabilities."
"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."
"Specifically, it would be great if we had the ability to reapply the server profile faster."
"Integration could be improved. Sometimes OneView doesn't identify physical hardware."
