Monitors well with Citrix, stable, and the support is very responsive
It looks like it is easy to scale, but I don't know how far it can go out. We are only a 300, or 400 person company. We are not terribly large. It looks like it should be able to scale up until 10,000 at least. There are two users in the company who use this solution, I use it, and the helpdesk.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that it not only has the ability to monitor but that it can do a lot of specific Citrix monitoring."
"My overall conclusion is that it is a valuable product for simulating Citrix logons because it does it with minimal effort and with a real user account."
"Offers a diversity of features."
"I think Goliath offers a very good tool to do simulated Citrix logons with actual user accounts and that the reports are useful to monitor and debug a session."
"In conclusion, I think Goliath Performance Monitor is a true winner."
"I like that the solution offers a diversity of things; it can give you resource monitoring, it can be integrated to detect an application crash, to capture syslog, things like that, and I like the diversity of the dashboard."
"I would definitely give them high praise for what they do, and for being a special niche product."
"The time that we have saved on hardware configuration and reconfiguration, both on the operations and engineering sides, would definitely pay for the product."
"Its ease of use and that it is a single-pane-of-glass are the most valuable features."
"Have a single plane of glass across all of the server platforms."
"Everything we ask for is there."
"The automation that we get within OneView and the visibility across all of our different products are the most valuable features."
"It keeps our costs down and improves the time it takes to manage our infrastructure and deploy."
"So far, it's been rock-solid."
"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."
 

Cons

"I would love to be able to tell what ISP the user is coming from."
"However, its GUI can use a little help. The navigation is not the most straightforward like many other monitoring tools."
"With Goliath IT Monitors, the processing speed is very slow."
"Hardware requirements of the management server are kind of steep, 4cpu is quite a number."
"Issues with generating reports; consistency is not there."
"The setup is a bit complex."
"One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself."
"I'd like to know where the product is going, whether it's converging with another, whether they're going to shut it down, etc."
"​Technical support is not very good. The engineers do not know a lot about the product​, even when asked simplistic questions."
"Does not allow for switch configuration other than through OneView."
"The older platform requires iLO licenses but does not require the purchase of servers. This platform has problems because it is dependent on old class enclosures and hardware that cannot link or be managed with the solution."
"One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself."
"The technical support is terrible. They don't know what to do if you have an error; they cannot solve it."
"In general, I think the development of new features should go faster."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price seems reasonable."
"The solution is free to use, but if you want the management aspect you require a virtual machine such as C7000 or Synergy which require licenses."
"Synergy does not require iLO licenses but servers and enclosures must be purchased."
"I feel the product's price falls a bit on the higher side."
"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."
"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."
"HPE could lower the price."
"​Use it. It is free."
"​I am happy with the price."
