Easy to deploy, stable, and scalable
I give the solution an eight out of ten. We have been having issues with HPE's road maps, which tend to be very aggressive. For example, if we have a server and then HPE announces and releases the NexGen, the previous server only has one more gear before the end of use. This can be problematic for clusters that are configured to only have the same model, as after a year we would have to do diagnostics or buy a new cluster. This is something we do not like about HPE, although other vendors may also be aggressive, HPE is really bad. It is important for new users to keep this in mind.

Simple to use and compatible with all other operating systems
Our primary use case is virtualization with a Huawei hypervisor called Fusion Compute. We also use this solution because of its simplicity and its compatibility with other operating systems The most valuable thing about Huawei FusionServer is the fact that it's easy to use. In the next release,…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I am impressed with the tool’s stability."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"HPE ProLiant DL Servers are a great product. We don't have many complaints."
"The scalability is very high in 380, so instead of using the high-end servers, you can use multiple servers and segregate the applications between the servers. ​"
"The GPU units, processor speed, and capabilities are most valuable. Desktop video conferencing is also valuable. It supports desktop video conferencing much better for graphics."
"​We use HPE Datacenter support, and it is good support. It is automatic support. When I have a problem, the question is written automatically.​"
"The solution is stable."
"What I like most about HPE ProLiant DL Servers is that it gives the support and hardware availability that my company requires."
"The most valuable thing about Huawei FusionServer is the fact that it's easy to use."
 

Cons

"The implementation should be simplified, it is not straightforward."
"The cost of the solution is high and has room for improvement."
"In the HPE ProLiant DL Servers generation nine, there was a problem when the expansion cards were installed on the server. There was only a small amount of room for the top expansion cards that hand could insert or remove the cables inside."
"The solution could improve by providing more best practices from an architectural point of view. What are some recommended configurations for use, such as in a VM environment? HP provides some best practices but they are based on VMware, not on Red Hat. It would benefit for others to see the different use cases. How the HPE ProLiant DL Servers were used in the context of Red hat virtualization, and some configurations as an example to allow us to identify some points that we can improve in our platform. We could make our system more reliable and scalable."
"The cost of the solution has room for improvement."
"They should improve the solution's built-in quality."
"We would like to see remote monitoring capabilities added."
"It would be great if HP could use a ProLiant Server to run HP-UX, the Unix build from HPE. Right now, HP-UX cannot run on the ProLiant architecture."
"In the next release, I'd like to see more features not in the hardware but in the platform where I can manage all the servers and the hardware of the servers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is a little too high; it could be reduced."
"The hardware should be cheaper."
"There are less expensive solutions than HPE ProLiant DL Servers. However, there is a lot of value in this solution."
"The price of HPE ProLiant DL Servers is reasonable compared to other solutions."
"HPE ProLiant DL Servers are one of the best-selling solutions in this industry. There is not a license required for this solution."
"​If you have to include the warranty, enhance the warranty support.​"
"I like the price of this product and the add-on components. It is cheaper than Dell and is a one-time hardware purchase with minimal ongoing costs."
"The price of the product is a little high."
