Has reduced credential management time and improved workflow efficiency through seamless integration

The best features that HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) offers include its HashiCorp language, which is very easy to use, and you can do whatever the organization requires. For DevOps integration, HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) is very easy to integrate, and I found the learning curve not hard at all. There is a lot of online documentation and learning materials available, making it quite helpful. Additionally, HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) has two versions: one is professional, and another one is a free version online that you can use as open-source. There are also plenty of documentation and online forums where you can chat with specialists in HashiCorp products. HashiCorp HCL language makes things easier for my team because it is very straightforward and any programmer can understand it. The syntax is easy, and there is a lot of documentation as well as learning materials available online that can be very useful. HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) has positively impacted my organization, leading to a significant budget saving and allowing us to integrate everything the way we wanted. Those positive impacts include a definite plus in terms of security and easier integration. Regarding cost savings, it was a big win for us as the organization has saved a lot. We did not need to have another third-party product, which is often expensive in the market, and the templating of any credentials and passwords was easy to manage in one place.

Flexible monthly infrastructure has simplified management and improved client cost control

Some valuable points about HPE GreenLake are that it is a managed solution in the same pane of glass. HPE GreenLake integrates well with the existing infrastructure, and it is straightforward. HPE GreenLake positively impacts my organization because it saves money and time, and it improves my sales because I have another solution to reduce costs for the client. The client may need to pay two thousand dollars to change every infrastructure in one payment, but not all clients have the total amount available. However, if it is possible to pay month-to-month for the solution, it is much easier for the client to accept the proposal. HPE GreenLake's real-time monitoring tools are good, and I really need them to improve the services.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ease of accessing passwords and using Vault has positively impacted my team's workflow and productivity, as it changes the way my team handles sensitive credentials."

"The tool's documentation is excellent. It's well-organized, easy to use, simple, and easily readable. I can usually find answers to my questions quickly in the docs."

"HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) has positively impacted my organization by making the whole problem-solving process easier, as if there are any ticket issues, things get resolved more easily compared to our previous services."

"HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) has positively impacted my organization by bringing efficiency and increasing productivity."

"HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) has positively impacted my organization by ensuring that the data is tokenized and the user access is appropriately assigned."

"HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) has positively impacted my organization, leading to a significant budget saving and allowing us to integrate everything the way we wanted."

"The solution's most valuable feature is infrastructure as code (IaC)."

"The product's initial setup phase is easy."

More HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) pros

"Its performance is a significant improvement over the legacy stack that we had."

"By establishing a service provider responsible for backup and restore and having monthly service meetings with them, we have reduced our management effort by more than fifty percent."

"It has helped us with the planning, and in concert with this, we are doing a lot of virtualizations. For a lot of cases, we are bringing in less gear and equipment to be able to accomplish the same things. It makes better use of what we do bring in."

"We have seen ROI, reducing our organization's capacity management efforts by around 40 to 50 percent and saving our organization 30 to 40 percent while decreasing the time it takes to deploy IT projects by 50 percent."

"We have a service and cost model based on utilization for specific KPIs, measured by memory and storage, with no costs for CPU consumption. This approach has allowed us to manage and optimize utilization and consumption effectively."

"HPE has delivered on all their promises for this service."

"In the next four years over the lifespan of the first segment, it's going to be saving us approximately $1.2 million in just hardware purchases and software support costs."

"The biggest thing that it gives us is reportability; that's the critical component. By giving us a monthly bill that is expandable based on usage, we're able to report back to the organization on the value that we're actually getting out of the hardware platform."

Cons

"If HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) could implement a way to configure the machines internally, and not only the cloud infrastructure provisioning and the boxes, and if they also added a way that we can easily configure the package or deploy applications inside the boxes, it would be fantastic."

"I think HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) can be improved by creating a module for audit to make access to logs easier and to improve the auditability of who is accessing which vaults at which time and being able to generate that information in a report."

"I don't have enough experience with HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) yet to have any recommendations for improvement at this time, but I would suggest speeding up the process."

"You need knowledge and experience to use Terraform, Vault, and other HashiCorp tools."

"From an improvement perspective, there is a need to ensure some bug fixes."

"It would be good if college or university students could explore HashiCorp Cloud Platform to a certain extent as an open-source solution."

"I have encountered a problem when updating modules required by policy changes, as the existing infrastructure sometimes gets deleted."

"I would like to have more detail in the monitoring."

"HPE GreenLake can improve the price."

"Both times that we've had to increase the hardware, the deployment took way longer than expected. In addition, we haven't yet gotten to a use point where the cost is below what it would cost us to provision the same set of services on HPE hardware outside of the GreenLake service."

"The support service needs improvement. The support team isn't very active in addressing cases. It should also provide a web application."

"I don't think we have seen an actual return on investment or that the return is not directly related to the product."

"Part of the integration, with cutting things over to Unisys, may have hurt us a bit. We had a couple of rough implementations earlier this year. Part of that was due to some internal system changes on HPE's side. We are keeping an eye on this to make sure it doesn't happen again."

"Unfortunately, HPE GreenLake can be sold only in Bahrain, UAE, and the Middle East, meaning it can be sold in only three or four countries because it requires certain approvals from countries where it has to be used."

"There could be better monitoring of growth and threshold usage so users could be more aware when their billing will change."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is moderate according to industry standard prices."

"For my side, the tool is not expensive. It is a very flexible product that you can utilize. I think the tool is a little bit expensive for smaller companies, especially startups."

"HPE GreenLake has been growing in popularity due to its subscription model. The flexibility of the solution allows it to adapt to the changing market trends towards more edge performance and workloads."

"It's a small cost per month compared to that one-time purchase. The big thing is if you get your one-time purchase wrong, then you are buying a lot more. With GreenLake, if we miss estimate (which with all the planning, you usually don't), we sign a piece of paper, and then they send more equipment in."

"If you are looking to turn some of your capital expense into operational expense, this allows you to do it. It is a good idea."

"HPE GreenLake payment model is you pay for what you use. You can purchase a yearly, quarterly, or half-year license. The overall price of the solution is a little high and hopeful there can be better margins in the future."

"We have reduced a lot of our VMware licensing costs."

"Right now we're paying about $180,000 per year."

"Pricing is based on usage plateaus. The more you use, the more you pay."

"In terms of pricing, it's a bit on the higher side."
