Room For Improvement

HPE OneView users want better integration, enhanced support, improved management features, user-friendly interface, and reduced licensing costs.
Nutanix Prism needs interface, pricing, and automation improvements, better third-party integration, enhanced analytics, migration ease, and licensing flexibility.
The upgrade process is lengthy, requiring careful planning as we cannot match ESXi versions without aligning OneView first, leading to delays.
From the dashboard and reporting perspective, HPE OneView could be improved by having multiple modules rather than just a single customization option.
I believe the prices of HPE OneView should be reduced, as it is quite expensive.
For more quotes and insights, download the HPE OneView report
The presales and marketing team should inform clients about resource requirements, such as RAM used by CVM, to help manage expectations.
Regarding Nutanix Prism's single pane overview, the limitation is that you cannot troubleshoot all errors from Prism Central; you sometimes need to log into the CLI to change settings such as the IP address of the CVM in the AHV.

Our main concern is managing expenses related to the VMware licensing model which affects blade usage.

Featured Reviews

Kapil Pandey - PeerSpot reviewer
Gaining seamless monitoring and customization capabilities
One of the best features of HPE OneView is that you get a complete architecture with a single click. The analytics and monitoring tools in HPE OneView are superior to other network monitoring platforms such as Nagios. The features include multiple modules that allow you to create and write your own scripts based on your requirements for different servers such as database servers or tapping roaming servers. There is more feasibility when using HP Service Manager because, unlike other tools with predefined standards for script writing, we have the option for customization as per our choice, and dashboard reports can be customized.

Efficiently manage virtual machines with robust disaster recovery
Nutanix Prism is mainly used for our daily operations, similar to VMware. Despite the lack of extraordinary features, it efficiently manages our daily operations now that we are managing our VMs. One of the most useful features is the disaster recovery setup, which includes two clusters, one for our production server and another for our recovery site.
