Efficient management and upgrades streamline complex setups
My main complaint is about the blades on the frames, which seem to have a lot of problems. We often have to call HPE for replacements, such as for memory. Constant issues arise, leading to frequent replacement of blade parts. Additionally, the upgrade process is lengthy, requiring careful planning as we cannot match ESXi versions without aligning OneView first, leading to delays.

It offers different licensing types that allow you to extend the services to clients; it lets you look into device performance and optimization and helps apply best practices
What I like best about IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is that it offers different licensing types. Hence, it allows my organization to extend the services to clients and not just use the solution within the organization. My organization can leverage IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to learn more about how clients perform because the solution lets you monitor and optimize devices and apply best practices.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Profile templates: The ability to generate the profiles and lay them down so the servers are built consistently. I would say that's probably the biggest piece of it."
"If you have a lot of devices, like we do, then you have to have one single pane of view, otherwise we lose too much time. So, we needed this type of solution."
"Firmware compliance is one of the most valuable features."
"Easy to see if all my servers are on correct firmware levels, with SPP packaging."
"The hypervisor and cluster profiles make it easy to integrate with VMware."
"We could literally swap out a piece of hardware, slide one back into the chassis, and immediately - about three reboots later - it was identical. We didn't have to worry about configuring it, we didn't have to spend any time getting anything into place. It came back and it healed the environment almost immediately."
"HPE OneView allows me to monitor access and check the health of the infrastructure in a single console."
"We have the dashboard up on a big screen, and you can actually see when things go wrong or if there are any faults with any of the servers. The backup is automated as well, so the appliance is quite good.​"
"My organization can leverage IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to learn more about how clients perform because the solution lets you monitor and optimize devices and apply best practices."
 

Cons

"One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself."
"Sometimes the interface can be a little confusing, sometimes the error messages can be very cryptic, as far as what's actually going on."
"I had some minor difficulties with upgrading, but the solution still works fine."
"The solution's console can be improved by making it more user-friendly and adding the capability to filter the reports out using only the information required."
"​We have a version 3 and a version 1.2, but the upgrade process from the 1.2 to the 3 is kind of an issue."
"Integration could be improved. Sometimes OneView doesn't identify physical hardware."
"The solution could add storage, integration services, and end-to-end support for Cisco switches or other competitor products."
"I would like to see support for things that aren't in the current generation. We have a lot of 7th and 8th generation hardware."
"What I want to improve in IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is the community aspect, where IDERA would provide customers with updates on functionalities, what comes next, what IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor upgrades would be released, etc. I also want the sustainability of IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Synergy does not require iLO licenses but servers and enclosures must be purchased."
"HPE had some other solutions, but they were actually quite expensive to buy. So, when OneView came along, it was kind of reasonable in terms of price for licenses, etc."
"​I am happy with the price."
"When it comes to the government, money is never an issue, so it was excellent in terms of the HPE OneView licensing cost. Hitachi was cheaper, but I'd rate HPE OneView cost-wise as eight out of ten."
"I feel the product's price falls a bit on the higher side."
"I would rate the cost as six out of ten."
"I think that the price of OneView is $500 USD per server, which is a little high."
"​Use it. It is free."
"I'm based in Nigeria, and the conversion rate affects the pricing for IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor, but globally, pricing is reasonable. I'm rating pricing for the solution seven on a scale of one to ten."
