Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The template management makes the deployment of the firmware updates much faster.""We get templates, so it's speed to delivery for us. It's a big difference with the template features.""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.""​The stability is very good. I have never had an issue with it over the three years that I have been using it.""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 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 OneView Global Dashboard is very user-friendly and it can be used for monitoring the power consumption and temperature of the data center and racks."

"The features I have found most valuable are log searching and log analytics, both of which are quick features.""It can monitor, get the data, and then report on the data.""The solution's basic visibility is one of its most valuable features. So, it is a solution that is easy to use...The solution's initial setup process was straightforward.""The most valuable thing that we have seen within our group is the ability to ingest all this raw data and have it organized in a certain way so that different groups can get effective alerting from this massive amount of raw data that is out there.""The initial setup was straightforward. We didn't find it to be too complex.""The product retains a lot of log data for subsequent analysis.""Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring gives us complete visibility without the need for storage.""I find the monitoring console very helpful. With one click, I can see how we are performing, and at the same time, I can see what data is flowing."

Cons
"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 think HPE could make more user-friendly interfaces, exclude Java and move to an HTML5 platform, make more detailed documentation, and lower the price.""The speed and performance of the solution are areas where the product lacks and needs improvement.""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.""Does not allow for switch configuration other than through OneView.""The solution could add storage, integration services, and end-to-end support for Cisco switches or other competitor products.""We've had issues, for example, with RAM.""​There was a feature called HPE cloud manager, but now it is owned by Micro Focus. HPE should make a cloud optimizer again."

More HPE OneView Cons →

"The solution's stability is an area that has room for improvement. It needs to provide constant stability to its users.""We still use Splunk Enterprise licensing. A lot of the newer features go into Splunk Cloud before Enterprise. We're not looking to switch our licensing over, so we're falling behind on the newer features.""It would be useful if they provided some help pages. If you don't know too much about the tool, there should be more documentation readily available. It would be useful if they had a help button embedded in the solution so you could ask questions and get answers.""It does not have a user-friendly interface and it is difficult to use.""The solution should have more sensors regarding fiber intelligence for security measures.""Splunk could be better integrated with configuration manager solutions so we can automatically resolve issues without human interference.""In the next release, I would like to see more integration with other solutions.""Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring's data analytics can be improved by including suggestions for various types of continuous monitoring."
