"HPE Integrity is a reliable solution, but you'll need to refurbish the hardware because it's approaching the end of sale."
"We have what is called a chief data care center support. This is the highest level of support they have. We have been very happy with the support we have received."
"It is very fast and easy to use."
"The product enables the centralization of all administrative tasks."
"For me, this is the best frame server technology available in the market. We can compare it to Cisco UCS. It is robust and stable, and it is also easy to deploy and scale. Their support is the best."
"There is no problem with the scalability."
"Great data storage and very good for software defined solutions."
"Technical support is excellent. They are very helpful."
"The stability of the solution is very reliable."
"I like that it's suitable for virtualization. It's also stable and scalable. The newer version has a lot of memory, and you don't have to worry about updates."
"In terms of the productivity of our deployment team, the amount of time has been decreased a lot. In the past, to deploy one c7000 chassis with 15 or 16 blades, we literally used to spend two to three weeks. But with a Synergy, it's very quick. Within three days we can do the deployment."
"The virtualization of HPE Integrity could be simplified. We have discussed this issue with HPE and hopefully, they will have an update."
"HPE Integrity is a pain. HPE hasn't put much work into developing the solution in the past few years because it will be discontinued soon."
"The monitoring is an area that needs some improvement."
"The Synergy platform is HPE-specific and more for on-premises. You're kind of locked in with VMware and the HPE with the VMs. The Nutanix offering is a bit more flexible."
"In the past, I have had issues with configurations."
"ICMs could be better in this model. When you look at its competitors, the most critical point is the throughput. HPE is the best with the ICM module, which is an interconnect module that connects the servers of the frames to the LAN and SAN. HPE Synergy should also support the latest processors provided by Intel."
"The setup was a bit complex."
"Changes to the solution are quite complex."
"It would be nice if the updates were not accompanied by downtime."
"The only good thing is that they have some powerful machines that you can use, such as the latest generations of HPE Compute that you can use."
"The profiles aren't so easy to work with."
