Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The benefit provided by the solution for my organization stems from the fact that it provides maximum reliability and availability to users."
"The tool provides good performance and productivity."
"What I like about HPE Integrity servers is how stable and easy to use they are."
"This is a reliable server, and many applications are integrated there."
"It is very fast and easy to use."
"HPE Integrity is a reliable solution, but you'll need to refurbish the hardware because it's approaching the end of sale."
"The product's most valuable features are troubleshooting and monitoring."
"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."
"Technical support is excellent. They are very helpful."
"Cable management is a big feature, in addition to time to deployment. We can buy a new server and have it up and running very quickly."
"With OneView, we can take care of all our servers in one dashboard."
"They're easy to swap and move around the datacenter, for sure. They don't occupy too much space for what they offer."
"We're able to provision different applications, different demonstrations, add cloud-like speeds on-prem, which is unheard of in the industry."
"All components in the HPE Synergy solution are redundant; if we experience any downtime in a component, a redundant one is available in our Synergy frame, therefore the downtime and stability for HPE Synergy solution are very good and highly appreciated."
"There is no problem with the scalability."
"The stability is very good. We haven't had any outages."
 

Cons

"Unlike other platforms, it lacks easy integration with popular cloud services like Office 365."
"HPE Integrity has always been one step behind in areas like virtualization technologies, cloud enablement, the speed of backups, and replication."
"The manageability must be improved."
"Pricing is very high."
"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."
"HPE Integrity needs improvement in terms of pricing for scalability."
"The update is problematic. When you want to update the firmware, or when you want to update software on Composer, it takes a lot of time. A lot."
"I would like more storage with this solution, because we still need 3PAR or other storage outside the box for the amount of data that we have."
"They must improve the OneView tools."
"It has been in the external integrations to other platforms that we have, which aren't HPE, where some of our challenges have been. I would like to see some integrations with non-HPE platforms."
"They have not improved their product since it was purchased."
"You can always improve some things."
"I would like it to connect to the HPE Cloud Connect compute platform for simplicity of our infrastructure."
"HPE Synergy could improve by developing the chassis to allow for more drives or disks. Currently, it supports only two drives in the blade server, which can be limiting."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is no license required to use HPE Integrity."
"The price is not very expensive."
"The pricing is the best."
"Price-wise, the solution is very expensive."
"HPE Integrity's pricing could be better."
"The hardware licensing cost is reasonable."
"The Nutanix platform came in a little more expensive than the Synergy."
"The solution has reduced our IT infrastructure costs because we have had to buy less services than we used to."
"There was at least about a 20 percent savings in cost over our purchase based on the purchase price of the compute modules themselves versus what we've had to pay before. It was significantly less."
"We bought everything outright to start with. We don't do much consumption-based stuff."
"The price point is a little high. We were able to get a good deal on a promotion, to go with it. It would be nice to see the prices come down a little bit."
"For temporal use, when you throw on the fact that you're essentially doubling your capacity, right there you could claim a 50 percent TCO reduction."
"In our whole environment, the cost is in the millions. On this particular chassis, the annual cost is 12 blades times approximately $40,000."
