Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"​It is very stable. We have had no downtime nor issues in approximately a year. ​""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.​""The solution's technical support was great...The initial setup of HPE OneView was easy.""We also have the 3PAR and the GUI is almost the same. So the recognition is very good.""Deploys faster new virtual services.""Provides the strongest support for 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.""We get templates, so it's speed to delivery for us. It's a big difference with the template features."

More HPE OneView Pros →

"It helped us consolidate all our solutions into an easy tool to use for various employees.""Splunk has facilitated the correlation of information security logs to look for incidents which could cause damage to the company's infrastructure, as well as financial losses from leaks.""The correlation capabilities are the first value that our clients say they like with Splunk.""The ability to quickly search logs, performance data, and other inputs has helped tremendously with troubleshooting.""Integration with the cloud is pretty important and good for us. We found the integration with a lot of tools, not all tools yet, valuable. It does make the transfer of data, log files, and other things easier for us.""It provides logs in one place, so they are easy to find. It collects the logs from multiple places, then you have just one place where you see the whole flow from the front-end to the back-end.""The ability to ingest any data and display it in a way that anyone can understand.""It has a drag-and-drop interface, so you don't need to know SQL or Java to construct a query on Splunk. The resolution time is about the same, but it took longer to discover the issue with ArcSight. Our previous solution took about an hour or more, but Splunk can do it within a few minutes or an hour at most."

Cons
"The tool doesn't send automated alerts via email...We should be able to receive notification emails when a server or hardware issue arises, which would be helpful if someone is unavailable in the office.""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.""​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.​""Those features, coming in version 4, that we're looking for are the discovery, primarily. But I think the scope-based access control is of interest, although, we didn't see any directory integration, so that, in itself, seems like it's still limited.""The main problem that we run into, as far as stability goes, is when something loses its profile. Sometimes it requires jumping through a number of "hoops" to really get it back.""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.""The network configuration part of HPE OneView needs improvement. The solution has way too many features, and there's a need for proper configuration indicators to be put in place.""​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."

More HPE OneView Cons →

"The complexity could be worked on so that it's even easier and faster.""Its pricing model and integration with third-party services can be improved. We had faced an issue with integration. The alerting feature is currently not available with Splunk, but it is definitely available with Datadog and PagerDuty. They should include this feature. A few dashboards in Splunk look quite old and are not that modern. They aren't bad, but improving these dashboards will definitely make Splunk more attractive and usable. I read in a few blog posts that there were a few security incidents related to Splunk agents. So, it can be made more secure.""I find the graphical options really limited and you don't have enough control over how to display the data that you want to see.""We had some connections issues with the solution at the beginning.""Deployment is not difficult but the lock sources and configurations can take time.""The monitoring aspect of Splunk could be improved. We have to do some queries to get as much information as CrowdStrike or other solutions provide. If you run a big query, you will see a delay. That is the only concern we have because it will take some time if you query large data sets.""Splunk can improve regex/asset analysis as we do not want to crawl until it is done.""In terms of the interface, it could include some improvements for the look and feel."

  • "HPE could lower the price."
  • "I think that the price of OneView is $500 USD per server, which is a little high."
