Executive SummaryUpdated on Oct 9, 2024

Stackify and HPE OneView are competing products in the fields of application performance monitoring and infrastructure management respectively. Stackify has the upper hand in addressing developer needs due to its efficient application monitoring capabilities, whereas HPE OneView is favored by IT teams for its robust infrastructure management features, though it comes at a higher price point.

Features: Stackify offers features like integrated error and log management, application performance tracking, and real-time alerts which enhance its utility in development environments. HPE OneView provides template-based provisioning, comprehensive health monitoring, and centralized IT infrastructure management, making it a powerful tool for large IT teams managing complex systems.

Room for Improvement: Stackify could further enhance its scalability options, improve its integration with other platforms, and add more customization features to better accommodate more extensive development teams. HPE OneView can focus on simplifying its complex deployment processes, broadening its software compatibility, and offering more flexible licensing options to cater to smaller businesses or those not requiring complete system-wide management.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Stackify is known for its straightforward deployment process and reasonable customer support, which is ideal for software-centric environments. In contrast, HPE OneView involves a more complex deployment, integrating hardware considerations, but it compensates with comprehensive support services and extensive resources that benefit IT departments.

Pricing and ROI: Stackify provides competitive pricing tailored towards developer-focused tools, offering an efficient ROI particularly for small to medium-sized teams. While specific pricing details are hard to ascertain, it is generally more cost-effective for agile development. HPE OneView, with its enterprise-level functionality, involves a significant upfront investment but ensures higher ROI for large-scale IT infrastructure solutions.

Sr. Systems Engineer at a media company with 5,001-10,000 employees

Efficient management and upgrades streamline complex setups

My main complaint is about the blades on the frames, which seem to have a lot of problems. We often have to call HPE for replacements, such as for memory. Constant issues arise, leading to frequent replacement of blade parts. Additionally, the upgrade process is lengthy, requiring careful planning as we cannot match ESXi versions without aligning OneView first, leading to delays.

Senior Software Engineer at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees

Has good filtering and rating features and helps with resource and load management

I've not used Stackify for a while, and I'm currently using a solution now that's not as good as Stackify. Among the solutions I've been using so far, Stackify has been one of the best for me, but there's always room for improvement. For example, I don't know if it's just me, but when I try to get the log from Stackify, sometimes it doesn't appear in real-time. It takes a few minutes before the logs appear. When I redeploy my solution and the application starts, I don't see the logs immediately, and it would take two to three minutes before I see the logs. I don't know if other customers have a similar experience. It's the wait time for the logs to appear that's a concern for me, could be improved, and is what the Stackify team should be looking into. In terms of any additional feature that I'd like added to the solution, I'm not sure if Stackify has a way to export logs out. I've been trying to do it. On the solution, you can click on a spiral-like icon and it shows you the entire error, and I'd prefer an export button that would let me download the error and save that into a text file, for example, so it'll be available on my local machine for me to reference it, especially because the log keeps going and as you're using the solution, the system keeps pushing messages on to Stackify, so if I'm looking at a particular error at 12:05 PM, for example, by the time I go back to my system and would like to revisit the error at 12:25 PM, on Stackify, the logs would have gone past that level and I won't see it again which makes it difficult. When you now go back to that timestamp, you don't tend to see it immediately, but if the solution had an export feature for me to save that particular error information on my local machine for reference at a later time, I won't have to go back to Stackify. I just go to that log, specifically to that particular export that I've received on my local machine. I can get it and review it, and it would be easier that way versus me going back to Stackify to find that particular error and request that particular information.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Places all of your different HPE products in one place, all in the circles where you can just get everything into nice, easy-to-use silos pretty easily."

"We are guessing up-to-date that it has improved efficiency across the board, and it has basically made our lives a lot easier since we can react a lot faster to any business requirements."

"OneView allowed us to accelerate the base configuration far faster and more accurately than ever before with manual configuration procedures."

"First, that it’s simple; it saves me time and is easy to use, releases stress for me, and since I’m working with federal law, I really need to make sure that all of my customers and their data are protected properly."

"Its ease of use and that it is a single-pane-of-glass are the most valuable features."

"There was no other solution prior to this one, and we felt that we needed OneView because it could do more in less time and in an easier way."

"HPE OneView allows me to monitor access and check the health of the infrastructure in a single console."

"It saves us a lot of time; time is money, and we mess around with servers all day, so it's a huge time saver."

More HPE OneView pros

"The filter feature on Stackify is one of the features I found valuable. It's awesome. When I want to get the application logs, the solution gives me many filters. For example, if I want to get logs from my test environment, the option is there for me to select the environment from Stackify, and you can also select the particular application, and you'll see the information you need there. The filter feature alone and the fact that Stackify offers a lot of different filters is what I like the most about the solution because I've used other tools with the filter feature, but the filtering was very difficult, versus Stackify that has good filtering. On Stackify, you can filter the information by the last one hour, or the last four hours, and you can also select the date range and specify the timestamp, then the solution will give you the information based on the date range you specified. Another feature I found valuable on Stackify is its rating feature because it tells you how your application is faring. For example, a rating of A means excellent, while a rating of F means very bad, or that your application is not doing well at all. The ratings are from A to F. I also like that Stackify helps you in terms of load management because the solution gives you information on overutilized resources. These are the most valuable features of the solution."

"My advice to anyone who wants to use Stackify is to go for it because my experience with it is good."

"It is very simple and very easy to configure."

"The performance dashboard and the accurate level of details are beneficial."

"Within few hours of install we've identify the source of issue we've been investigating for few days and couldn't pin point."

"What stood out to us were the metrics and granular details we received."

"We switched from New Relic and Loggly as it provides us more info at a lower price."

"The deployment is very fast."

More Stackify pros

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."

"My main complaint is about the blades on the frames, which seem to have a lot of problems. We often have to call HPE for replacements, such as for memory."

"One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself."

"From the dashboard and reporting perspective, HPE OneView could be improved by having multiple modules rather than just a single customization option."

"The technical support is terrible. They don't know what to do if you have an error; they cannot solve it."

"There is no way currently to manage the onboard storage from the servers through the OneView application."

"I found the technical support for the solution to be slow."

"It was a complex installation. The user guide was missing content about the configuration."

More HPE OneView cons

"It should be easily scalable and configurable in different instances."

"I would like to be able to see metrics about individual running containers on the host machines."

"I'm looking to see more performance tools, but heard that they are going to release some."

"When I redeploy my solution and the application starts, I don't see the logs immediately, and it would take two to three minutes before I see the logs."

"One thing that happens as a new user on Stackify is when you install the agent it pulls everything and if you're not careful, your log allowance will just be exhausted as you are actually pulling too much data."

"I've not used Stackify for a while, and I'm currently using a solution now that's not as good as Stackify. Among the solutions I've been using so far, Stackify has been one of the best for me, but there's always room for improvement.

"It's not easy to set up. It's hard especially for juniors to understand."

"The search feature could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Use it. It is free."

"HPE could lower the price."

"I would rate the cost as six out of ten."

"HPE had some other solutions, but they were actually quite expensive to buy. So, when OneView came along, it was kind of reasonable in terms of price for licenses, etc."

"I am happy with the price."

"When it comes to the government, money is never an issue, so it was excellent in terms of the HPE OneView licensing cost. Hitachi was cheaper, but I'd rate HPE OneView cost-wise as eight out of ten."

"I feel the product's price falls a bit on the higher side."

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

More HPE OneView pricing and cost advice

"The price is variable. It depends on how much data we have received in that particular month. Usually, it goes up to $2,000, or, at times, $3,000 USD per month."
