Efficient management and upgrades streamline complex setups
My main complaint is about the blades on the frames, which seem to have a lot of problems. We often have to call HPE for replacements, such as for memory. Constant issues arise, leading to frequent replacement of blade parts. Additionally, the upgrade process is lengthy, requiring careful planning as we cannot match ESXi versions without aligning OneView first, leading to delays.

It offers different licensing types that allow you to extend the services to clients; it lets you look into device performance and optimization and helps apply best practices
What I like best about IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is that it offers different licensing types. Hence, it allows my organization to extend the services to clients and not just use the solution within the organization. My organization can leverage IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to learn more about how clients perform because the solution lets you monitor and optimize devices and apply best practices.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The time that we have saved on hardware configuration and reconfiguration, both on the operations and engineering sides, would definitely pay for the product."
"Just the ability to provision the servers with storage and network everything within one interface, not having to go into multiple interfaces to provision those pieces."
"Scalability is probably the biggest influence for choosing OneView, as it doesn't matter if you're trying to manage 10 servers or 10,000 servers."
"It does make your life much easier."
"It keeps our costs down and improves the time it takes to manage our infrastructure and deploy."
"We also have the 3PAR and the GUI is almost the same. So the recognition is very good."
"I don't have to use CD-ROMs or anything like that to provision the servers."
"The solution's initial setup process was easy...The technical support is good...It is a stable product, and we will use it for a long time."
"Easy to setup and begin monitoring."
"My organization can leverage IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to learn more about how clients perform because the solution lets you monitor and optimize devices and apply best practices."
"Customer Service: 5 stars! Excellent. Technical Support: 5 stars! Excellent."
"Now with the features given through up.time we have over 300 + monitors constantly checking every environment that we have and also checking databases for errors."
 

Cons

"With every new version, new devices are supported in OneView, but we are still missing support for some HPE products."
"Those features, coming in version 4, that we're looking for are the discovery, primarily. But I think the scope-based access control is of interest, although, we didn't see any directory integration, so that, in itself, seems like it's still limited."
"There are still some limitations in OneView, as it manages only the hardware and not the applications."
"Integration could be improved. Sometimes OneView doesn't identify physical hardware."
"Maybe it could be a little faster."
"If I remember correctly, our CTO was saying that he wants to see a little bit more of integration into the HPE StoreVirtual VSA product."
"​I saw, maybe three years ago or two years ago here, or in Barcelona, at the HPE Discover conference, a feature that you can update Clusterware with VMware. But the feature is still not live in production. Currently, you have to do all the firmware updates and then you have to do the VMware updates. So you have two reboots and it would be better if it was just one."
"I would love the ability to either import a range of IPs for the ILO, or be able to do a scan."
"While you can restrict particular users to only see subsets of the reports, it isn't as easy as it could be."
"Maintenance windows need to be streamlined."
"What I want to improve in IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is the community aspect, where IDERA would provide customers with updates on functionalities, what comes next, what IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor upgrades would be released, etc. I also want the sustainability of IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"​I am happy with the price."
"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."
"This license cost for OneView was $3,000 USD."
"I would rate the cost as six out of ten."
"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."
"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."
"I'm based in Nigeria, and the conversion rate affects the pricing for IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor, but globally, pricing is reasonable. I'm rating pricing for the solution seven on a scale of one to ten."
