We performed a comparison between HPE OneView and Zabbix 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."Provides the strongest support for automation."
"Deploys faster new virtual services."
"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."
"The stability is very good. I have never had an issue with it over the three years that I have been using it."
"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."
"The solution's technical support was great...The initial setup of HPE OneView was easy."
"The template management makes the deployment of the firmware updates much faster."
"Comprehensive dashboard, ease of use are key features."
"We like the user-interface for this solution, which makes it an easy to use tool."
"The most valuable features of Zabbix are flexibility and a single interface for different types of monitoring."
"The initial setup, while not simple, is easier than other products."
"The pricing of the product is reasonable."
"Zabbix is scalable."
"Zabbix is a cost-effective solution. We're a small organization with a few dozen devices to monitor, and it was available for free. We can see what we need. We haven't done an in-depth analysis on it, but we're currently okay with the product."
"I really enjoy network traffic triggers that allow us to check traffic threshold from ISP."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of virtual machines."
"Those features, coming in version 4, that we're looking for are the discovery, primarily. But I think the scope-based access control is of interest, although, we didn't see any directory integration, so that, in itself, seems like it's still limited."
"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 tool doesn't send automated alerts via email...We should be able to receive notification emails when a server or hardware issue arises, which would be helpful if someone is unavailable in the office."
"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."
"I have to chop it up into smaller parts, because I have an installation in Europe and it covers the whole world. That is not so good. They need to be more localized, so I am going to chop it up into smaller bits."
"There was a feature called HPE cloud manager, but now it is owned by Micro Focus. HPE should make a cloud optimizer again."
"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."
"Sometimes the interface can be a little confusing, sometimes the error messages can be very cryptic, as far as what's actually going on."
"Zabbix is not easy to configure, and upgrading is also an issue."
"Improvement is needed as per customer requirements."
"The user web interface is a little bit too basic, we need to link Zabbix to Grafana to have more options, such as graphs and charts. The interface needs to be improved. Additionally, there could be better integration with Grafana API."
"The dashboard and the graph section could be a little bit more professional."
"Sometimes, the documentation is a little bit written in Estonia – a country in Europe. The language barrier and translation to English can sometimes make it difficult to understand what they're trying to get at. It's just a language thing."
"The networking monitor is not too easy to work with."
"There are a lot of areas for improvement, specifically in the dashboards and reports functionalities."
"We would like to monitor other touchpoints such as ATM machines. It would be great if it can provide monitoring of ATM machines. Compatibility with other products would also be great."
