The technical support for HPE OneView rates as an 8 on a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is the worst and 10 is the best.
I would give the quality of HPE OneView's technical support an eight out of ten rating, indicating good customer service and support in my opinion.
 

Scalability Issues

HPE OneView facilitates infrastructure growth with seamless integration, preferred for scalability and managing large server environments effectively.
HPE OneView is highly scalable, especially useful for organizations with large infrastructures.
HPE OneView is a scalable solution since you can integrate any number of servers based on your license.
Scalability is fine as we can add Synergy frames and extend many frames as needed.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.5
BMC TrueSight is stable when properly configured, with occasional issues resolved by vendor support, praised for reliability.
Sentiment score
6.6
HPE OneView is highly reliable with most versions stable, though minor bugs exist, and timely upgrades enhance performance.
The stability of the blades is concerning; we have frequent issues with blades having memory or power issues.
HPE OneView is a stable solution that works efficiently.
It supports unified monitoring effectively but may have areas for enhancement.
 

Room For Improvement

BMC TrueSight struggles with deployment complexity, limited dashboards, costly training, and requires improved AI, cloud monitoring, and documentation.
HPE OneView users want better integration, enhanced support, improved management features, user-friendly interface, and reduced licensing costs.
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.
 

Setup Cost

BMC TrueSight pricing varies from $80 to $200 per license, depending on volume, complexity, and additional features.
HPE OneView pricing varies significantly, viewed as cost-effective by some yet expensive by others, depending on deployment scale.
Customers need to pay a substantial amount for the licenses, especially when monitoring a large number of servers and storages.
Our main concern is managing expenses related to the VMware licensing model which affects blade usage.
 

Valuable Features

BMC TrueSight offers intuitive integration, robust event management, end-to-end visibility, and flexibility across assets with advanced automation.
HPE OneView streamlines infrastructure management with automation, improving efficiency, deployment speed, and operational visibility for enhanced user experience.
I can monitor everything in one view, which has significantly improved operational efficiency for us.
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.
This approach makes the upgrade process straightforward and efficient.

Featured Reviews

Ayobanji Iluyomade - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution is stable and can be used for monitoring and managing events, but it does not provide application or service monitoring features
We are moving from basic monitoring to AIOps, where we can do things like self-healing. We also want to create dashboards for IT and business users to show the status of their services. We have done a couple of demos. I recommend the solution to others. Overall, I rate the product a seven out of ten.
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.
