Aruna Udawatte
An affordable and easy-to-implement solution, but its after-sales support and technical support should be improved
Omar Sánchez (Mr.Tech)
The new architecture of interchangeable "boxes" allows for more customization and less environmental impact.

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Obviously I would like to see the cost go down. That speaks for itself."

  • "There is an annual license required to use HPE Apollo."
  • "It is an expensive solution but it is worth the money. The standard licensing cost is for the GPU and the features that someone is using. There are additional charges but they depend on the solution."
  • "Compared to other products, HPE Apollo is not an expensive solution."
