We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management 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."It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"It provides a comprehensive monitoring solution for our open systems."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"We are able to go in and actually leverage the thick client for a nice easy drag and drop solution."
"The number of probes available. Out of the box, I believe about 200 probes are available. And, if there's a probe that is not available, you can write one. You can also go to the communities and suggest, and based on demand, CA will write one for you."
"The monitoring of the applications to let our business know when things are performing and that they're up and available."
"I definitely appreciate the flexibility and ease of use. We've been using UIM for almost three years now. It's pretty much point and click, very easy to use. And we've had no problems scaling it to our own environment."
"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Easy to add servers and get them monitored and manageable."
"We also have the 3PAR and the GUI is almost the same. So the recognition is very good."
"Comprehensive dashboard, ease of use are key features."
"The template management makes the deployment of the firmware updates much faster."
"The best part is that you can integrate a two-way network. Earlier we could not manage the storage and ToR switch. Now we can create a LAN with our storage without any interface. In terms of switch management, it is now easy to understand the current configuration. It provides centralized management. It provides a single pane, and you can easily do all updates in one shot. It is a great product."
"It's rather simple to use, and that's very important for us."
"Deploys faster new virtual services."
"Within this product there are individual probes, and each of these probes doesn't always necessarily output the same kind of information into our database. So when we try to collect what's called QoS data, from one probe we might get a ton of information, lots of good stuff that we can use in our database, but then from another probe, we might not get so much or we might not be able to pull the things that we want to."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"I'm very happy with DX Unified Infrastructure Management, but what could be improved is its user interface because currently, it has many wide spaces. All the information you need is in DX Unified Infrastructure Management, and it's a reliable tool, and though that's more important than the gaps in the user interface being smaller or wider, those gaps still need some improvement. I know the team is working on it. My company had some backend problems with DX Unified Infrastructure Management in the past that have now been solved. The setup for the tool also needs improvement because it's complex. Another room for improvement in DX Unified Infrastructure Management is its technical support because it's sometimes not as knowledgeable or responsive. What I'm suggesting to be added to the tool is an open-standard ELK Elastic-based database where you can put in all data, so that you can use the data in other systems as well."
"It is a little complex to use versus other softwares."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"Specifically, it would be great if we had the ability to reapply the server profile faster."
"The interface is a bit bland. It does its job, but it could have a better interface."
"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."
"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."
"Use it, but do not think it is going into the clouds, because it is not. There is room for improvement."
"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."
"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."
"I had some minor difficulties with upgrading, but the solution still works fine."
