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."By being able to deploy servers very quickly and rapidly, we can respond to any business requirement needed."
"The template management makes the deployment of the firmware updates much faster."
"Comprehensive dashboard, ease of use are key features."
"Administration-wise it's going to be easier. More smooth and more flexible."
"Deploys faster new virtual services."
"Gives the business interfaces to view real-time pictures of IT business services."
"Firmware compliance is one of the most valuable features."
"The most valuable features of HPE OneView are environment monitoring, the ease of firmware upgrade, and the ability to manage all the servers and the infrastructure from one team."
"The flexibility of this solution is amazing."
"There are lots of great features and functionality within the solution."
"Zabbix helps to save time."
"During my testing, the features that I like the most are that it can be integrated with my system, and it provides me with reports of all of my servers."
"Simple network monitoring that is easy to install and manage."
"The features I found most valuable are the user interface and a wide range of network devices that are easy to configure."
"We use it to monitor and manage our servers."
"The integration with third-party tools and the alerts are most valuable."
"Use it, but do not think it is going into the clouds, because it is not. There is room for improvement."
"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."
"One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself."
"Specifically, it would be great if we had the ability to reapply the server profile faster."
"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."
"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've had issues, for example, with RAM."
"I would like to see support for things that aren't in the current generation. We have a lot of 7th and 8th generation hardware."
"The user interface could be a bit better. They could update it a bit."
"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 solution needs to add features for finding loopholes or problems and their root causes."
"In the next release, I'm hoping for features targeted towards larger users with more customizable options. Despite this, I think pre-canned reports that can be used straight out of the box would be beneficial rather than having to configure each report individually. Additionally, a deeper dive into software configurations on the machines would be useful, although I understand there may be challenges in implementing this due to scripting requirements. More documentation would also be appreciated."
"Zabbix claims that there is an auto-discovery process but my team member was facing difficulty and was told that it's not really automatic, and there are some manual steps."
"The GUI could be more intuitive. Also, we'd like streaming telemetry. Zabbix might have this feature, but I haven't seen it yet. It took us a long time to get started because the documentation isn't very descriptive. We had to go through various sources like YouTube and forums to get this solution working."
"The System Center Operations Manager can be improved."
"We would like to see the addition of automatic push functionality to this product. This would save time when monitoring our servers and networks as, at present, we have to manually install the Zabbix agent on any hardware to be monitored."
