We performed a comparison between HPE OneView and Nutanix Prism based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."The most valuable features are the composable structure, infrastructure, and automation."
"The most valuable features of HPE OneView are environment monitoring, the ease of firmware upgrade, and the ability to manage all the servers and the infrastructure from one team."
"It gives us a view of all our servers, which we did not have before in real-time."
"I don't have to use CD-ROMs or anything like that to provision the servers."
"We cannot function without this solution. "
"Broad range of tools to create executive and operations dashboards."
"Easy to add servers and get them monitored and manageable."
"We get templates, so it's speed to delivery for us. It's a big difference with the template features."
"The feature that stands out for me is the simplicity and ease of use. That is what comes to mind when I think about the Prism console. You don't need to be a core technical person to manage a cluster. Everything is available in the console itself."
"It is stable and reliable."
"We were impressed with Nutanix, overall. Some of the other main drivers for our switch to it were the simplicity of setting up our Nutanix clusters, ease of management, and that their support is very respected. There is an overall ease of use, compared to VMware. I'm sold on their product."
"Prism Central is a single point to manage every cluster. Everything can be managed in one panel. Everything is there on the main page of the dashboard."
"The centralized management of Nutanix Prism is the best feature."
"The Clone and Snapshot features are two of the most valuable aspects of the solution for our organization. Rather than simply one-click automation the Snapshot and reverse Snapshot are great."
"One valuable aspect of Nutanix Prism is how easy it is to set up. The setup process is useful to us because all we need to do is to set some variables and go with the recommended settings."
"Aside from ease of use, scalability is one of the key points of this solution."
"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."
"Technical support is not very good. The engineers do not know a lot about the product, even when asked simplistic questions."
"There was a feature called HPE cloud manager, but now it is owned by Micro Focus. HPE should make a cloud optimizer again."
"Does not allow for switch configuration other than through OneView."
"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."
"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."
"One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself."
"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."
"I would like more insights about virtual machines. It would be helpful to have more detailed information about resource allocation and usage, so we can distribute resources and reassign them more efficiently."
"The product currently fails to provide a complete view to customers."
"It would be ideal if there was more of a community around the solution so that it would be easier to learn things about the solution from other users."
"In the next release, I would like the ability to browse data stores."
"In our environment we are using it alongside VMware, so some integration with that would be nice. VMware has SHD (Skyline Health Diagnostics) which diagnoses health and gives suggestions. A plug-in for taking information out of it would be helpful."
"The dashboard visibility could be improved."
"I would like to see the capability to use FC SAN storage."
"The life cycle management or LCM feature is the most complicated. It takes really long and is unpredictable for our use cases. They should provide more detailed information about the kind of LCM to go for, various errors, and different kinds of tasks. For analytics for certain configurations, we require more details with the report. Sometimes, not all elements are present for support, management, and configuration. For troubleshooting, it would be very easy and useful if we can analyze log files directly from Prism, that is, not from the command line but directly from Prism."
