Reliable servers handle numerous applications efficiently
Pricing is very high. It should be less. In comparison to other brands like Dell or Cisco, I think HPE is not CTS. HPE should not be CTS. It should be less than Cisco and IBM. IBM has higher costs. Compared to Dell and Cisco, it is costly, and some management software is also expensive.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"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."
"This is a reliable server, and many applications are integrated there."
"HPE Integrity is a reliable solution, but you'll need to refurbish the hardware because it's approaching the end of sale."
"It is very fast and easy to use."
"What I like about HPE Integrity servers is how stable and easy to use they are."
"The tool provides good performance and productivity."
"The product's most valuable features are troubleshooting and monitoring."
"The benefit provided by the solution for my organization stems from the fact that it provides maximum reliability and availability to users."
"There is no problem with the scalability."
"It allows for easy management."
"The benefit is that it's going to be maintained, contrary to what we had last year, when the maintenance went off for the last generation of the servers that we had there."
"The price is reasonable, and the stability and scalability are okay. We bought the solution because it suits our needs."
"It makes it simpler for me to manage my environment. It is one pane of glass, compared to multiple."
"The stability is very good. We haven't had any outages."
"It is a good product for hypervisors."
"We have more control over the firmware and how we are managing our physical servers."
 

Cons

"HPE Integrity has always been one step behind in areas like virtualization technologies, cloud enablement, the speed of backups, and replication."
"The monitoring is an area that needs some improvement."
"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."
"Pricing is very high."
"HPE Integrity needs improvement in terms of pricing for scalability."
"Unlike other platforms, it lacks easy integration with popular cloud services like Office 365."
"The virtualization of HPE Integrity could be simplified. We have discussed this issue with HPE and hopefully, they will have an update."
"The manageability must be improved."
"The possibility of using storage directly in the frame in order to have bigger storage directly there, and not having an attached storage like SAN or NAS. That would be helpful."
"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 expansion was complex, because adding a second frame onto the original frame caused an outage."
"They have not improved their product since it was purchased."
"The stability is not good right now. We have had a couple of outages where we have receive very good support from HPE. However, we have not been able to come up with cut and dried reasons for why the outages have occurred. They have not been able to be reproduced, so it has been difficult getting our trust back."
"Continue the path of integrating OneView into a single product. A lot of different people have different OneView experiences based on which product they have used it for."
"A faster Composer module would be a good inclusion for the next release of this solution."
"Sometimes there are firmware or software difficulties when connecting between networks or with storage."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is not very expensive."
"HPE Integrity's pricing could be better."
"There is no license required to use HPE Integrity."
"The pricing is the best."
"There is a perpetual license given when you purchase HPE Synergy."
"Synergy has lowered our total cost of ownership significantly. I would say ballpark around 25 percent, maybe more."
"We outright purchased Synergy."
"The solution has reduced our IT infrastructure costs because we have had to buy less services than we used to."
"We don't have to pay for Synergy because it's part of our plan."
"Our IT infrastructure costs have gone up each year by 20 percent."
"We have already paid once. It is just the price for the permit and its use. It seems you don't have to keep paying for it, but I am not sure."
"The Nutanix platform came in a little more expensive than the Synergy."
