Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a powerful tool that allows users to collect and transform logs as needed, enabling flexible visualization and analysis.""Its diverse set of features available on the cloud is of significant importance.""We can view and connect different sources to the dashboard using it.""The Elastic User Interface framework lets us do custom development when needed. You need to have some Javascript knowledge. We need that knowledge to develop new custom tests.""It has always been a stable solution.""The solution has been stable in our usage.""It's easy to deploy, and it's very flexible.""Good design and easy to use once implemented."

More Elastic Observability Pros →

"Comprehensive dashboard, ease of use are key features.""Deploys faster new virtual services.""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.""Gives us one platform to monitor and access or configure all the servers or the 3PAR, etc.""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.""If you have a lot of devices, like we do, then you have to have one single pane of view, otherwise we lose too much time. So, we needed this type of solution.""The initial setup is easy.""I don't have to use CD-ROMs or anything like that to provision the servers."

Cons
"The interface could be improved.""More web features could be added to the product.""The solution would be better if it was capable of more automation, especially in a monitoring capacity or for the response to abnormalities.""The price is the only issue in the solution. It can be made better and cheaper.""Elastic APM's visualization is not that great compared to other tools. It's number of metrics is very low.""If we had some pre-defined templates for observability that we could start using right away after deploying it – instead of having to build or to change some of the dashboards – that would be helpful.""In the future, Elastic APM needs a portfolio iTool. They can provide an easy way to develop the custom UI for Kibana.""Elastic Observability needs to improve the retrieval of logs and metrics from all the instances."

More Elastic Observability Cons →

"I think HPE could make more user-friendly interfaces, exclude Java and move to an HTML5 platform, make more detailed documentation, and lower the price.""The speed and performance of the solution are areas where the product lacks and needs improvement.""​Technical support is not very good. The engineers do not know a lot about the product​, even when asked simplistic questions.""HPE OneView should be able to cover more device models apart from ProLiant and Synergy.""It needs more reporting capabilities.""I would like to see them expand into other cloud platforms, non-HPE platforms.""​We have a version 3 and a version 1.2, but the upgrade process from the 1.2 to the 3 is kind of an issue.""We ran into a couple of issues here and there with the baselines for the firmware and not having enough space on the appliance itself to be able to have more than two baselines."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "So far, there are just the standard licensing fees. Several of the components are embedded in the license or are even open source. They're even free depending on what you use, which makes it even more appealing to someone that is discussing pricing of the solution."
  • "There are two types: cloud and SaaS. They charge based on data ingestion, ingest rate, hard retention, and warm retention. I believe it costs around $25,000 annually to ingest 30GB of data daily. That is the SaaS version. There is also a self-managed license where the customer manages their own infrastructure on-prem. In such cases, there are three license tiers that respectively cost $5,000 annually per node, $7,000 per node, and $12,500 per node."
  • "Pricing is one of those situations where the more you use it, the more you pay."
  • "The price of Elastic Observability is expensive."
  • "Users have to pay for some features, like the alerts on different channels, because they are unavailable in different source versions."
  • "One needs to pay for the licenses, and it is an annual subscription model right now."
  • "Since we are a huge company, Elastic Observability is an affordable solution for us."
  • "We will buy a premium license after POC."

  • "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."
  • "​Use it. It is free."
  • "​I am happy with the price."
  • "HPE could lower the price."
  • "I think that the price of OneView is $500 USD per server, which is a little high."
  • "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."
  • "Synergy does not require iLO licenses but servers and enclosures must be purchased."
  • "This license cost for OneView was $3,000 USD."
