We can use it for more than just servers. It supports network storage as well.

What is most valuable?

It's a product with which you can automate, manage, and monitor your devices.

How has it helped my organization?

It improves our productivity, because we can use OneView for more than just servers. We can use it for storage on some of the networks as well. So it's quite good.

What needs improvement?

With every new version, new devices are supported in OneView, but we are still missing support for some HPE products. I hope they will be supported soon.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It's quite stable. There’s been no down time.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It's easy to scale, but we are not a huge company. We're not GE.

How are customer service and support?

We haven't been using technical support. We have not had any issues.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We were using Insight Manager, which was the product before OneView's conception. Therefore, we heard about OneView, and started using it instead.

How was the initial setup?

Initial setup was quite straightforward.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We were not really looking at other vendors, because OneView is for HPE products. You couldn't use another product. We want OneView because we want to automate things and to manage our systems easier.

What other advice do I have?

It should be easy to use and easy to manage things. You don't need a couple of different products to manage. Now you can use OneView for everything.

The ease of use. It is easy to move things forward. Provides ease of a single interface to manage multiple products.

Active director integration.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We knew we needed to invest in a new solution because of the lifecycle. We used to work with HPE’s Insight. When selecting a vendor, I look for reliability.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was straightforward.

What other advice do I have?

I definitely recommend OneView. If you are an HPE shop, it's the way of the future. It's the single pane of glass. Products are looking the same. You have to move forward into that world.

It is easier to manage. During a code update, there should be more stability in the code.

What is most valuable?

Its simplicity is the most valuable feature.

How has it helped my organization?

It is easier to manage and has one central location.

What needs improvement?

For a code upgrade, there should be more stability in the code.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

To be honest, we've been having some issues with the stability of the product. We're working with the support to get it more stabilized. We did a code upgrade and the whole thing just fell. Our guys back home are still working on fixing it.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We're still in the beginning phases of using it, so I don't know how it's going to scale out or not.

How are customer service and technical support?

The technical support team is okay. They didn't fix the problem at the first time they connected with us, so we're not too impressed, at the moment with them.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

This tool was recommended to us by our partners. We then had it included with the service that we bought and implemented it.

Reliability is the most important criteria while selecting a vendor.

What other advice do I have?

Try a PLC first.
