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 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."
"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."
"I like that it not only has the ability to monitor but that it can do a lot of specific Citrix monitoring."
"Offers a diversity of features."
"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."
"Deploys faster new virtual services."
"The single-pane-of-glass and a full view of the environment are the most valuable features."
"We are very glad, happy with it."
"Having one platform to monitor and to access or configure all the servers or the 3PAR, etc., is rather simple to use, and that's very important for us."
"The solution's technical support was great...The initial setup of HPE OneView was easy."
"They give great service, and it's a great product, at a good price."
"When we're looking at vendors we look for the product itself and innovation."
"The initial setup is easy."
 

Cons

"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."
"However, its GUI can use a little help. The navigation is not the most straightforward like many other monitoring tools."
"I would love to be able to tell what ISP the user is coming from."
"With Goliath IT Monitors, the processing speed is very slow."
"I’d like to see more functionality going towards the hybrid IT."
"The stability of the solution is unfavorable. We have had some struggles with OneView."
"There is a lot of automated stuff in there, but we'd like to step into the middle of that and bring in our own different tools as a part of that integration."
"It was a complex installation. The user guide was missing content about the configuration."
"The speed and performance of the solution are areas where the product lacks and needs improvement."
"I believe the prices of HPE OneView should be reduced, as it is quite expensive."
"Maybe it could be a little faster."
"The possibility to do more analytics regarding the status of the assets."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price seems reasonable."
"​Use it. It is free."
"I think that the price of OneView is $500 USD per server, which is a little high."
"HPE could lower the price."
"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."
"This license cost for OneView was $3,000 USD."
"​I am happy with the price."
"Synergy does not require iLO licenses but servers and enclosures must be purchased."
"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."
