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.

Real-time monitoring has improved incident detection and simplifies per-second troubleshooting
The key area for improvement is data retention and historical analysis. Netdata is excellent for real-time monitoring, but for long-term storage and deep historical insights, it usually needs to be integrated with other tools. Improving built-in long-term retention would make it more complete. Another area I see is data aggregation, where it correlates multiple nodes; while it provides great per-node visibility, having more advanced centralized views and correlations across systems would help in larger-scale environments. Customization of alerts and anomaly detection could also be enhanced. One area needing improvement is access control and security features. Stronger RBAC and user management would help control who can view data. Another area would be customization of dashboards, alerting integrations, and improving enterprise-level scalability features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are the composable structure, infrastructure, and automation."
"I would think that any company would want to use it; it makes it easier for the user, the administrator, and makes it simpler from a reporting standpoint, and you can see your entire environment."
"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."
"Its simplicity is the most valuable feature."
"HPE OneView allows me to monitor access and check the health of the infrastructure in a single console."
"Technical support is top notch."
"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."
"With OneView, an expandable and programmable solution from HP, the door opens for partnerships in the healthcare IT field and HIPAA compliance."
"Netdata has positively impacted my organization by improving downtime and incident response workflows through real-time visibility into infrastructure and application performance."
"The biggest ROI I have seen is in incident detection, with improvements of forty to fifty percent, troubleshooting time by thirty to forty percent, and productivity gains of around twenty-five to thirty percent."
 

Cons

"Well when you're a partner you don't get HP Tech Support on your demo licenses so I had to build it myself but I managed to get through it and it's not inherently hard but you've got to pay attention to the details."
"Stability is a hit and miss."
"I know we tend to have issues with our server profiles. When we're changing server profiles and applying them we run into some red flags occasionally."
"Integration could be improved. Sometimes OneView doesn't identify physical hardware."
"Maybe it could be a little faster."
"One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself."
"We have different operations teams managing the servers. It should be segregated more in terms of which operation team is managing which group of servers."
"The stability of the solution is unfavorable. We have had some struggles with OneView."
"The key area for improvement is data retention and historical analysis."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"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 am happy with the price."
"I think that the price of OneView is $500 USD per server, which is a little high."
"I would rate the cost as six out of ten."
"​Use it. It is free."
