Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Feature-wise, the most valuable one is the fact that it has 100 hundred percent uptime every year. Secondly, it is stable.""The stability of HPE NonStop is good.""We don't have any issues with the stability of HPE NonStop."

"The most valuable features of HPE Superdome X are speed, performance, and resilience.""Superdome X is a system that can compete in terms of performance and uptime, but it's now standard. That is the great value. There are competitors like IBM, for example, but IBM has a propietary operating system. With Superdome X, you have a system that can run Windows, Red Hat, or VMware, but in a mission critical server.""I like the robustness of the machine. Similar performance could likely be achieved with other configurations, but this machine is very stable.""SDX gave us a very large RAM and we need that for the large-scale graph-handling applications.""This product is very reliable.""We've got a few of them, because we needed some really large machines. So far, they've been working pretty good.""One of the really cool things about Superdome is, depending on the model you choose, you can put 8-16 blades in it."

Cons
"HPE NonStop could improve by having infrastructure management.""It would be helpful if they brought the price down.""It is not flexible...Not a lot of applications run on HPE NonStop."

More HPE NonStop Cons →

"It would be helpful if you could do the maintenance completely online.""In this specific model, it could be beneficial to have a server configuration similar to Cisco, like the kind offered in HPE Superdome Flex X280. The ability to separate the chassis is important because we are forced to use two chassis even with lower loads. So introducing more flexibility in the Superdome environment would be helpful.""HPE Superdome X can improve by adding a lot of cloud capabilities to allow this solution to be cloud-ready in case the customer wants to move it to the cloud.""What would make it better from my point of view is if HPE spent more time on testing with the actual built-in Red Hat Linux drivers, as opposed to always trying to say, "Use our driver."""I know we support Windows and I think it's Red Hat, and I'd like to see more OSs supported.""I'd like to see the onboarding of some storage class memory to really expand the already very large RAM, into something that could be even much bigger."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "HPE NonStop is definitely on the higher end."
  • "The price of the solution is too high. If they lowered the price substantially it would open up more opportunities. It's considered a replacement for the old 9000 boxes of HP. If it had a lower price, we would be able to compete in the financial, and other sectors and other solutions such as Terraform. Having a high price makes other solutions more attractive."
  • "On a scale of one to ten, where one is very cheap, and ten is very expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."

  • "There is a very expensive one-time cost with no licensing fees."
  • "The pricing is not very cheap. I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very inexpensive, and ten being very expensive."
