Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""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.""It's rather simple to use, and that's very important for us.""Easy to see if all my servers are on correct firmware levels, with SPP packaging.""The remote support automatically logs service calls and support cases with HPE, which is really good.""The hypervisor and cluster profiles make it easy to integrate with VMware.""Gives us one platform to monitor and access or configure all the servers or the 3PAR, etc."

"The metrics and trends that Splunk Enterprise Security generates using all the data points we send allow customers to understand better what their users are doing.""The ability to ingest any data and display it in a way that anyone can understand.""I like Splunk's data aggregation and search capabilities.""This is a straightforward solution, easy to configure.""Splunk's schema on demand is incredibly useful. I do not have to worry about what my users will need when we onboard their data.""Splunk Enterprise Security is a standard solution providing good customer service and partnership.""We are much faster finding and addressing issues with Splunk.""It can log more logs than other solutions. It's a good way to troubleshoot problems."

Cons
"​Technical support is not very good. The engineers do not know a lot about the product​, even when asked simplistic questions.""They can improve reporting and provide more customized reports. Currently, reporting is a bit limited. It can be complex to learn and manage for beginners. Because of my experience, I find it comfortable to manage, which might not be the case with beginners. It would be good if they can make it a little bit easier to understand. They can provide a more graphical view of connectivity and other things. Their technical support can also be improved.""One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself.""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.""It would be better if we can add every HPE device to OneView, such as MSA, as well as the other servers like the DL server and ML server.""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.""I had some minor difficulties with upgrading, but the solution still works fine.""It needs more reporting capabilities."

More HPE OneView Cons →

"Splunk does not provide any default threat intelligence like Microsoft Sentinel, but you can integrate any third-party threat intelligence with Splunk. By default, no threat intelligence suite is there, whereas, with IBM QRadar or Microsoft Sentinel, the default feature of threat intelligence is there. It is free. If Splunk can provide a default threat intelligence suite, it would be better.""Free-floating panels in the dashboards are like a glass table.""The initial setup is complex, but this is necessary. We needed to take into consideration how to direct log files from thousands of machines to Splunk, and how to ingest those files.""Its reporting can be improved. That's the only complaint I have heard. I don't need the reporting part, but I know that other people in the organization need it.""Previously, they developed custom connectors or add-ons for a lot of applications. But that number can be upgraded still. There are a lot of applications in the world that are not supported.""Its interface could be improved.""We usually have to follow up with technical support on our open cases.""I would like additional features in different programming models with the support for writing queries in SQL or other languages, such as C#, Java, or some other type of query definitions."

  • "​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."
