Solution Architect at SA Consulting
Helps us provide visibility into network performance, capacity planning, and cost analysis
Better support and more accessible resources are crucial. Customers have expressed that support is not as flexible, and it is difficult to obtain necessary information quickly. Customers would benefit from improved training material for integration with other products. The solution's pricing is high and needs to be reconsidered, and the technical support should improve to provide more accessible and open information.

Offers reliability and helps with the virtualization part
The product integrates with our company's existing IT infrastructure, especially when it comes to MicroK8s and other on-premises servers. The tool also helps with the virtualization in the ecosystem of our company, where there are other tools from HPE. Performance and network optimization are some of the beneficial areas in terms of server management. Speaking about how the remote management ability of the product impacted our company's IT operations, I would say that my organization has dealt with areas like RDP, DDI, and DMC, depending on the requirements of our final customers. In my experience, the product has contributed four hours in terms of reliability and to ensure the uptime of our servers. When it comes to the day-to-day use of HPE System Management's interface, I would say that it connects with some of the best tools and Hyper-V console with the help of Microsoft. I recommended the solution to those who plan to use it. I rate the overall product an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The application allows our NOC operators a very fast response time for issues on our clients systems, and by utilizing the alarm and ticketing system we are able to validate the alarm and begin working on the issue sometime before the client even knows there is a situation."
"I would definitely recommend the concept if it is something you are looking for."
"The monitoring of the applications to let our business know when things are performing and that they're up and available."
"With some scripting we are able to integrate much better with our ticketing system."
"It has provided greater security for our most important asset which is the handling of information."
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"Unified Management Portal (UMP) is the most valuable feature, as it did a lot of health monitoring for our environment to prevent some issues from happening."
"I believe that the fundamentals and the logic of how UIM is set up is very stable, providing the essentials to extract data from an environment, present it through a front-end using graphs and charts, and allow for crucial analysis on the collected data, with UIM doing a good job of managing all the steps along the way."
"The managing and monitoring are the solution's most valuable features. They are something I find quite helpful in my work."

Cons

"NSD and NMS support need to be improved. Usually, what I encountered was that if we had an issue, the suggestion was always to upgrade to the current version, but sometimes when they upgraded some features would stop working."
"The UI seems sluggish at times. When you go to maneuver or browse through, it takes a while to update."
"It was complex, due to the configuration that we already had with another tool, implementing everything again took us longer than planned; it really is a difficult tool to configure, specifically in our infrastructure."
"Integration with other tools."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"Our experience has been that UIM does not do discovery well."
"We have products that we’re moving away from that have a better GUI and they’re 15 years old."
"Product stability and performance, especially in Linux environments needs to be improved."
"The return on investment report is too difficult to understand."
"Good system management is costly."
"The return on investment report is too difficult to understand."

"Our customers would like to see the price lowered."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Reasonable setup cost and licensing prices."
"The license cost depends on the number of probes and robots."
"Pricing for DX Unified Infrastructure Management isn't cheap at all. It's a complex tool, so you have to pay more. No one is happy with a large bill to pay, but if it's a complex product and you designed a complex solution to be monitored, it'll be your fault that you need to buy an expensive product, and that would be implicit in the design of DX Unified Infrastructure Management. Monitoring is just a small part of it. Sometimes you have to pay a significant amount of money for a complex yet very good solution."
"CAD $400,000 annually."
"This product is expensive compared to other vendors (SolarWinds, ManageEngine)."
"The product-price ratio is better than other brands such as Fortinet or SonicWall."
"The license was included when we purchased the server."
"My company has invested 30,00,000 USD in the product."
"The support is yearly-based and the license is permanent."
"The price of this product is fair."
