We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and HPE OneView based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Latest version of tool comes integrated with Jaspersoft reporting solution, giving excellent reports."
"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."
"I can use the Drag and Drop feature to build dashboards within minutes."
"It reduced cycles for a lot of quick out-of-the-box functionality. It also allowed us to get away from being stuck in SNMP, VTP V2, based off of agent deployment."
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"The ability to monitor any platform. We have Windows, Linux, AIX, and mainframe all being monitored with the same UIM infrastructure."
"Easy to add servers and get them monitored and manageable."
"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."
"We could literally swap out a piece of hardware, slide one back into the chassis, and immediately - about three reboots later - it was identical. We didn't have to worry about configuring it, we didn't have to spend any time getting anything into place. It came back and it healed the environment almost immediately."
"We get templates, so it's speed to delivery for us. It's a big difference with the template features."
"It gives us a view of all our servers, which we did not have before in real-time."
"The hypervisor and cluster profiles make it easy to integrate with VMware."
"We also have the 3PAR and the GUI is almost the same. So the recognition is very good."
"It monitors all our servers, and if there is any problem it straight away sends us an alert. If It's a faulty component, we can see it from there. It sends an alert."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"Stability."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"The only challenge that I have with this solution is the reporting part. The users are not really comfortable with the kind of reports they are getting. Sometimes, they want to see reports in their own format. Customizing those reports with Jasper is not very easy. It could be because of the knowledge gap. If you have the knowledge of how Jasper can be configured to suit customer requirements in terms of reporting, it is good. There was a time a customer complained about one issue related to Netflow analysis. Broadcom has a separate model for that, but the customer wanted everything bundled together. It could also have IP management so that I am able to see or analyze IPs so that the IPs that are already in use don't get assigned."
"It is a little complex to use versus other softwares."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"Within this product there are individual probes, and each of these probes doesn't always necessarily output the same kind of information into our database. So when we try to collect what's called QoS data, from one probe we might get a ton of information, lots of good stuff that we can use in our database, but then from another probe, we might not get so much or we might not be able to pull the things that we want to."
"The solution could add storage, integration services, and end-to-end support for Cisco switches or other competitor products."
"Integration could be improved. Sometimes OneView doesn't identify physical hardware."
"Specifically, it would be great if we had the ability to reapply the server profile faster."
"The main problem that we run into, as far as stability goes, is when something loses its profile. Sometimes it requires jumping through a number of "hoops" to really get it back."
"The solution's console can be improved by making it more user-friendly and adding the capability to filter the reports out using only the information required."
"The network configuration part of HPE OneView needs improvement. The solution has way too many features, and there's a need for proper configuration indicators to be put in place."
"It needs more reporting capabilities."
"The speed and performance of the solution are areas where the product lacks and needs improvement."
