We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and HPE OneView 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."The feature that we've found to be very helpful is the way the solution categorizes the devices to identify groups, groups of devices and clusters. This allows us to be aware of their position within the topology."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"The number of probes available. Out of the box, I believe about 200 probes are available. And, if there's a probe that is not available, you can write one. You can also go to the communities and suggest, and based on demand, CA will write one for you."
"DX UIM is scalable."
"This solution allows us to have an overview of the infrastructure and identify areas where the performance isn't optimal, or where upgrades could be carried out."
"It is easy to implement."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"The hypervisor and cluster profiles make it easy to integrate with VMware."
"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."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Provides the strongest support for automation."
"Firmware compliance is one of the most valuable features."
"The most valuable features are the composable structure, infrastructure, and automation."
"The easy user interface was what I found most valuable in HPE OneView. For example, if I wanted to know the infrastructure status or I needed to send in any change commands, HPE OneView had simple buttons."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"The other element is that there are no real templates, out of the box. Let's go with an example where we do have the probe, which is great, and we do have a really nuanced customer with a small set of devices that maybe not a lot of other customers use. There might not be a template in place, so effectively we have the tool in front of us but we still need to develop a solution. So it would be really nice to see a little bit more of something like a central repository of templates that we could use. That would help us expedite our onboarding process."
"There is also room for improvement in the reporting. It is not really good enough, according to our customers. So what we now usually do is use Power BI to get them the kinds of reports they want."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"Reporting capability can be improved especially when it comes to availability."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"Stability."
"It's a little slow sometimes. Overall, I think it does what it's supposed to do. I think that as they evolve it, it'll get quicker."
"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."
"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."
"Sometimes the interface can be a little confusing, sometimes the error messages can be very cryptic, as far as what's actually going on."
"HPE OneView should be able to cover more device models apart from ProLiant and Synergy."
"Technical support is not very good. The engineers do not know a lot about the product, even when asked simplistic questions."
"The solution could add storage, integration services, and end-to-end support for Cisco switches or other competitor products."
"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."
