Achieve seamless network and link monitoring with comprehensive device management
The most valuable function is that the IMC takes an entire backup of my network devices, and I can also redeploy them. The really beneficial feature is the link monitoring. I had checked Check Point's product, however, my requirements are better fulfilled by IMC. The main feature is that IMC automatically configures the device for my use. I have over 200 features in my network, and IMC manages the complete environment. Automation is good, but I mainly use it for monitoring. I am too satisfied with this product.

"The initial setup of ExtremeAnalytics is straightforward and user-friendly."
"The solution's scalability is a ten out of ten."

"The most valuable function is that the IMC takes an entire backup of my network devices, and I can also redeploy them."
"It's a very complete product with a lot of functionality."
"One of the notable advantages is its ability to provide quick responses, especially in critical situations."
"We chose HPE for its interoperability with non-Cisco equipment, interoperability with non HP equipment, and customizable, and a deep feature set that Cisco Prime just didn't have because it's focused on Cisco stuff only."
"The most useful feature is infrastructure monitoring including switches and servers."
"The most valuable feature is the interface and its ease of use."
 

Cons

"The solution's stability needs to be improved."
"ExtremeAnalytics could improve application control. The URL filtering is not working properly. We have had issues with the reports and heat maps not working as expected. We have been receiving download errors when attempting to retrieve the heat maps and reports."
"There are issues with cloud distribution of the servers, and it could be faster."
"I face the issue with the integration with links on Fortinet Firewall."

"I would like to see additional modules included."
"The integration with other network devices needs improvement."
"HPE Intelligent Management Center is a bit slow."
"One notable deficiency is the lack of online support for the product."
"It's horrible. 90% of the time we're figuring out the solution ourselves."

"The price of the solution is approximately $100 to $120 and is paid annually."
"There are licensing costs and they are quite expensive."
