"Deploys faster new virtual services."
"By being able to deploy servers very quickly and rapidly, we can respond to any business requirement needed."
"The easy user interface was what I found most valuable in HPE OneView. For example, if I wanted to know the infrastructure status or I needed to send in any change commands, HPE OneView had simple buttons."
"Gives us one platform to monitor and access or configure all the servers or the 3PAR, etc."
"We lose less time managing the machines."
"The most valuable features are the composable structure, infrastructure, and automation."
"The solution's initial setup process was easy...The technical support is good...It is a stable product, and we will use it for a long time."
"Provides timely notifications."
"I like that it's very simple to install, easy to manage and deploy, and easy to use for monitoring."
"The most valuable feature of Nagios Core is it allows us to develop and add as many plugins as we want."
"Dashboard provides monitor of total assets."
"It has made the life of the network operations staff more proactive in managing the resources of the infrastructure. It prevents disasters long before they can take place."
"The most valuable features are the reports and the way it generates the report in a graphical manner."
"Key features include the GUI interface, its notification capabilities, and the real-time reporting."
"I like the way the solution sends alerts and how it keeps on escalating them."
"We've had a few issues. We just upgraded to the 3.9.0 version. We think that now that we are on that version, hopefully a lot of those things are going to go away for us."
"It needs more reporting capabilities."
"I saw, maybe three years ago or two years ago here, or in Barcelona, at the HPE Discover conference, a feature that you can update Clusterware with VMware. But the feature is still not live in production. Currently, you have to do all the firmware updates and then you have to do the VMware updates. So you have two reboots and it would be better if it was just one."
"I have to chop it up into smaller parts, because I have an installation in Europe and it covers the whole world. That is not so good. They need to be more localized, so I am going to chop it up into smaller bits."
"The interface is a bit bland. It does its job, but it could have a better interface."
"I think HPE could make more user-friendly interfaces, exclude Java and move to an HTML5 platform, make more detailed documentation, and lower the price."
"They can improve reporting and provide more customized reports. Currently, reporting is a bit limited. It can be complex to learn and manage for beginners. Because of my experience, I find it comfortable to manage, which might not be the case with beginners. It would be good if they can make it a little bit easier to understand. They can provide a more graphical view of connectivity and other things. Their technical support can also be improved."
"There was a feature called HPE cloud manager, but now it is owned by Micro Focus. HPE should make a cloud optimizer again."
"Nagios Core can improve the graphical interface, it would make things a little easier."
"I believe Nagios Core will need to provide an option for big data platforms in the future."
"The UI is a little outdated and graphics could be displayed in a better way."
"The mapping is a little hard."
"Nagios Core could improve by adding a user interface. If you want the user interface you have to use Nagios XI."
"There is room for improvement in the graphics."
"The dashboard and monitoring features could be improved."
"It would be nice if the company offered a sales or contract manager that was dedicated to our company so that we would have some sort of link to Nagios, and if we had issues or questions, we'd be able to contact them directly."
